It seems that libbfd is returning some messed up data structures in some cases. In my case, symbol->section is messed up for all symbols. It always points to some uninitialised memory.
I have seen this while using oprofile and having a segfault in opreport (while opreport tried to access sym->section). Here are more details, with full listings of the data structures: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2798666&group_id=16191&atid=116191 -- Summary: libbfd returns messed up data (symbol->section == 0x109 or other strange values) Product: binutils Version: 2.19 Status: NEW Severity: critical Priority: P2 Component: binutils AssignedTo: unassigned at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: ich at az2000 dot de CC: bug-binutils at gnu dot org http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10223 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
