Hi,


I'm getting a segmentation fault with JLinkGDBServer when I connect/disconnect GDB multiple time (~50 times).
Here is the setup:
target device: tms570ls3137
JLinkGDBServer: SEGGER J-Link GDB Server v6.12i Command Line Version (JLinkARM.dll v6.12i)
host: tried both on Ubuntu 16.04/Mac OS X Sierra 10.12.3


The log file is attached.


I don't know if there is any command needed to flush internal data of JLinkGDBServer before disconnecting and reconnecting? I've checked on google and it seems that a simillar issue already happened in the past ( JLink under Linux dies with Segmentation fault ).


In the log, there is several warnings, such as the "WARNING: Failed to read memory @address 0x14010008" or "WARNING: Failed to read memory @address 0xA4150008" but there is no such address in my code, as both addresses are reserved memory regions, as described in ti.com/lit/ug/spnu499b/spnu499b.pdf section 2.2.1, page 101).

Any help would really be appreciated, I'm out of idea...

Kind Regards and Thanks in advance,


Guillaume

Hi,


First, Thanks for your reply. Were you able to reproduce the bug? If not, please let me know, and I will do the same test with an identical binary in all tests and share the log file with you.


Kind regards,

Hi again Niklas,




I just tried the latest 6.14 release, which should fix the problem, as described in the release note:
"GDBServer: Under Linux / macOS, after repeatedly opening and closing a connection to the GDBServer, GDBServer stopped accepting new connections. Fixed."


unfortunately, the problem remains with this release (both Mac OS Sierra / Ubuntu 16.04 64 bits) raising an segmentation fault after ~50 connections/deconnections. Do you have any feedback to provide, so I can get is working?
if you need anything else, please let me know.




Thanks,


Guillaume

Hello Niklas,


Thanks for your reply. I just tested it and everything seems to be working as expected (I've not tested on Ubuntu, but it works on Mac OS X).

Thank you very much for your support!
