Re: [Wireshark-dev] master branch of Wireshark/tshark hangs

It could be a bug in the Qt GUI component of Wireshark. Is it possible to attach a debugger to "wireshark" or "dumpcap" and obtain a symbolized stack trace? Kind regards, Peter On Tue, May 23, 2017 at 03:51:58PM +0200, Remy Leone wrote: > I'm not sure about where to start investigating this issue

Yep, outdated because manual updates. ;) The process of building and publishing can be reasonably automated, but is there a reason why you are looking for a PPA rather than building the binaries from source? (It takes about 3 minutes on a fast machine to build the binaries once all dependencies an

I'm not sure to understand. Wireshark doesn't crash but hangs in that case. How could I get a symbolized stack trace? I've tried before to use libtool --mode=execute gdb ./wireshark but wireshark keeps hanging and I don't know how to use it to get meaningful information. Best regards Rémy 2017-

I'm building tshark within a container. Building from the sources usually takes me a long time (around 30 minutes). I've applied the following flags: ./configure --disable-wireshark --disable-editcap --disable-udpdump --disable-dftest --disable-sharkd

You can attach to an existing process by its process ID: gdb -q -p `pidof wireshark` then once attached, you can can obtain a backtrace with the "bt" command. You can use "c" to continue and press Ctrl-C in gdb to interrupt and enter commands like "bt". Kind regards, Peter On Thu, Jun 01, 2

Thanks a lot of the explaination :-) Here is the backtrace. I don't think Qt is involved. (gdb) bt #0 dissect_ieee802154_payload_mlme_sub_ie (offset=8, tree=0x7f078bbd4690, pinfo=0x11b81c8, tvb=0x1000f70) at packet-ieee802154.c:2628 #1 dissect_ieee802154_payload_ie (offset=8, tree=, pinfo=0x11b8

Do you notice an infinite loop (increased CPU usage)? If that is the case, you could interrupt several times, obtain a backtrace and continue. Tip: to limit to the last five frames use "bt 5" instead of "bt". For more info about a command, use "help bt". Note that if the program hangs or aborts a
