Android Fatal signal 11 SIGSEGV at 0x636f7d89 code 1 How can it be tracked down

Question

I ve been reading the other posts on tracking down the reasons for getting a SIGSEGV in an Android app  I plan to scour my app for possible NullPointers related to Canvas use  but my SIGSEGV barfs up a different memory address each time  Plus I ve seen code 1 and code 2  If the memory address was 0x00000000  I d have a clue it is a NullPointer   The last one I got was a code 2   A libc 4969   Fatal signal 11  SIGSEGV  at 0x42a637d9  code 2    Any suggestions on how to track this down   I have a suspect  but I m not keen on experimenting with it yet  My app uses the OSMDroid API for offline mapping  The OverlayItem class represents markers nodes on the map  I have a Service that collects data via the network to populate the OverlayItem which are then displayed on the map  In an effort to simplify my design  I extended OverlayItem into my own NodeOverlayItem class  which includes some addition attributes I use in the UI Activity and in the Service  This gave me a single point of Item information for the UI and Service  I used Intents to broadcast to the Activity to refresh the UI map when something changed  The Activity binds to the Service and there s a Service method to get the list of NodeOverlayItem s  I think it might be the OSMDroid API s use of OverlayItem  and my Service updating node information at the same time   a concurrency issue   As I write this I think that s really the problem  The headache isn t splitting out the Node and OverlayItem from NodeOverlayItem  it s that the Activity will need some data from the Node  that the Service holds  Plus when the Activity is created  onResume  etc     the OverlayItem objects will need to be re-created from the Node data that the Service has been maintaining while the Activity was away  e g  You start the app  the Service collects data  the UI displays it  you go to Home  then back to the app  the Activity will need to pull and re-create the OverlayItem s from the latest Service node data   I know this isn t a great or clear questions  It s like all my SO questions are niche or obscure  If anyone has a suggestion on how to interpret those SIGSEGV errors  it would be greatly appreciated   UPDATE Here s the latest crash captured during a debug session  I have 3 of these devices being used for testing and they don t all crash reliably when I m developing and testing  I included a bit extra just so the GC logging could be noted  You can see the problem is probably not related to memory exhaustion   03-03 02 02 38 328  I CommService 7477   Received packet from  192 168 1 102 03-03 02 02 38 328  I

In my case the issue was being caused by the Android Profiler. In Android Studio, click on "Android Profiler" and "end session".

Ironically, it was also causing extreme performance issues in the application.

Check your JNI native code  One of my references was null  but it was intermittent  so it wasn t very obvious

For me that issue was due to a bad cast between two activities  I recently moved this method from Activity1 to another 2   Doing so  the refactor left this explicit cast as it was before   So instead of doing     Activity1  mainActivity  hideDialog      I was supposed to do     Activity2  mainActivity  hideDialog      Note  But this error did not happen on android 8 0 I m not yet sure why        Hope it helps

I had this segmentation fault error because of Memory issues  My struct having many variables and arrays  had this Array of size 1024      Reducing the size to 512  the error was gone    P S  This is a workaround and not a solution   It is necessary to find the struct size and dynamic memory allocation is a better option

OK  I m really sorry to those that have actually submitted comments and answers  but I found the problem  I don t think this will help a lot of others trying to track down their personal SIGSEGV  but mine  and it was very hard  was entirely related to this   https   code google com p android issues detail id 8709  The libcrypto so in my dump kind of clued me in  I do a MD5 hash of packet data when trying to determine if I ve already seen the packet  and skipping it if I had  I thought at one point this was an ugly threading issue related to tracking those hashes  but it turned out it was the java security MessageDigest class  It s not thread safe   I swapped it out with a UID I was stuffing in every packet based on the device UUID and a timestamp  No problems since   I guess the lesson I can impart to those that were in my situation is  even if you re a 100  Java application  pay attention to the native library and symbol noted in the crash dump for clues  Googling for SIGSEGV   the lib  so name will go a lot farther than the useless code 1  etc    Next think about where your Java app could touch native code  even if it s nothing you re doing  I made the mistake of assuming it was a Service   UI threading issue where the Canvas was drawing something that was null   the most common case I Googled on SIGSEGV  and ignored the possibility it could have been completely related to code I wrote that was related to the lib  so in the crash dump  Naturally java security would use a native component in libcrypto so for speed  so once I clued in  I Googled for Android   SIGSEGV   libcrypto so and found the documented issue  Good luck

0001173c   And you will see where you got the problem  Of course this wont help you since it is in libc   So you might combine the utilities of arm-eabi-objdump to find the final target   Believe me  it is a tough task         Just for an update  I think I was doing Android native build from the whole-source-tree for quite a long time  until today I have myself carefully read the NDK documents  Ever since the release NDK-r6  it has provided a utility called ndk-stack   Following is the content from official NDK documents with the NDK-r9 tar ball   Overview   ndk-stack is a simple tool that allows you to filter stack traces as they appear in the output of  adb logcat  and replace any address inside a shared library with the corresponding   values   In a nutshell  it will translate something like     I DEBUG       31                                                                     I DEBUG       31   Build fingerprint   generic google sdk generic  2 2 FRF91 43546 eng test-keys

directory containing symbolic versions of your application s shared libraries  If you use the NDK build system  i e  ndk-build   then these are always located under  PROJECT PATH obj local   where  stands for your device s ABI  i e  armeabi by default    You can feed the logcat text either as direct input to the program  e g    adb logcat    NDK ndk-stack -sym  PROJECT PATH obj local armeabi   Or you can use the -dump option to specify the logcat as an input file  e g    adb logcat  gt   tmp foo txt  NDK ndk-stack -sym  PROJECT PATH obj local armeabi -dump foo txt   IMPORTANT    The tool looks for the initial line containing starts in the logcat output  i e  something that looks like                                                                      When copy pasting traces  don t forget this line from the traces  or ndk-stack won t work correctly   TODO   A future version of ndk-stack will try to launch adb logcat and select the library path automatically  For now  you ll have to do these steps manually   As of now  ndk-stack doesn t handle libraries that don t have debug information in them  It may be useful to try to detect the nearest function entry point to a given PC address  e g  as in the libc so example above

If you had added some native C code in your project this answer could be helpful   I had added some native C code in android project   Now i was trying to access that code which was returning native string to me  before processing the the string i had set its default value as nullptr  Now upon retrieving its value in java code ran into this issue   As our native C code is out from java directory so getting no clue of exact line of code which is creating the issue  So i would suggest you to check your  cpp file and try to find any clue there   Hope so you will get rid of the issue soon

I also got this error many times and I solved it  This error will be faced in case of memory management in native side   Your application is accessing memory outside of its address space  This is most likely an invalid pointer access  SIGSEGV   segmentation fault in native code  Since it is not occurring in Java code you won t see a stack trace with details  However  you may still see some stack trace information in the logcat if you look around a bit after the application process crashes  It will not tell you the line number within the file  but will tell you which object files and addresses were in use in the call chain  From there you can often figure out which area of the code is problematic  You can also setup a gdb native connection to the target process and catch it in the debugger
