For a while now (I can't remember exactly which version) Xcode 4 has not been working properly. In that whenever my code crashes the debugger just shows me the main() function and there is a stack trace like this:
#0 0x9018b9c6 in __pthread_kill ()
#1 0x90105f78 in pthread_kill ()
#2 0x900f6bdd in abort ()

#14 0x00013a9b in UIApplicationMain ()
#15 0x00002a02 in main at /Users/dan/Dev/Container/Container/main.m:16
In the console I get some more meaningful information, in this case it tells me:
2011-11-09 10:39:53.886 Container[27273:f803] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSRangeException', reason: '*** -[__NSArrayI objectAtIndex:]: index 1 beyond bounds for empty array'
In this example I know what the problem is because I made the error (I'm trying to access an object in an empty NSArray) on purpose to try and get to the bottom of this issue. However, I can't figure out what is going wrong. I've lived with it up until now as lot of the bugs I've had I've been familiar with and knew where to look anyway but still, it's becoming a real pain.
Can anyone please shed some light on this issue?
You probably want to stop at the point in code when the exception actually occurs, not when it has been bubbled up to your main method. To do so, set an exception breakpoint as explained here: Exception Breakpoint in Xcode

I'm using Julia language (Version 1.3.1), JuMP package (Version 0.20.1) and Cbc package (Version 0.6.6) to solve an optimization problem in a docker container with ubuntu:16.04. The optimizer Cbc seems to be hung, with 100% cpu usage, without exiting and without any message. The problems happens rarely on similar problem and seems to be not replicable: if I run the same code with the same data it doesn't hang anymore. Hope that backtrace got through gdb can be useful.
I can share my model, if needed. It has 11520 variables, 4652 constraints, 10080 variables used in linear objective function.
This is the log of Cbc optimizer:

Using next command in gdb console, than a StackOverflowError() error is catched on CbC.
Has the objective function too many terms?
Any help is really appreciable.
Thank you
This appears to be an issue with Cbc. It's impossible to provide more advice without a reproducible example. I suggest you try to simplify your model and create an MPS file.
You can set the time limit using the seconds parameter as follows.
For newer package versions:
model = Model(optimizer_with_attributes(Cbc.Optimizer
,"seconds" => 60
,"threads" => 4
,"loglevel" => 0
,"ratioGap" => 0.0001))
Or like this for older package versions:
model = Model(with_optimizer(Cbc.Optimizer
,seconds=60
,threads=4
,loglevel=0
,ratioGap=0.0001))
I have a hung python (CPython 3.6) process. From a gdb backtrace, a forked process waits indefinitely for a mutex held by a LWP/Thread which no longer exists. After some debugging, I can see that after join() returns on the blocking Thread, its LWP is still active, with its stack unwinding with a backtrace like this:

Should this LWP be there at all or should it terminate before join()? If the latter, am I looking at a CPython bug?
From inspection of the source code, it seems that this is expected. From https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/_threadmodule.c#L1028, when a thread has finished its work, these two calls are made:
PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent();
PyThread_exit_thread();
The first ends up releasing the lock which allows join() to return; the second results in the LWP unwinding its stack.
Debugging a trivial test python script which starts a Thread, join()s it and then sends a signal to itself (which provides a convenient breakpoint which gdb can understand) shows a similar backtrace to the one in the original post, which further supports this conclusion.
My Qt application is locking up with high cpu usage after running correctly for a few hours, and I'm trying to figure out why. This is on an embedded linux system.
The first thing I did was attach gdb and look at a stack backtrace. It shows the lockup occurring in ptmalloc_lock_all(), which is called by fork(). The application uses system() to play a video, and periodically uses QProcess to check whether a USB drive is mounted.
I don't intentionally use multiple threads in my application, but gdb shows 4 threads at the point where the freeze occurs. I've included the backtrace for all 4 threads:

I'm not very experienced with multithreaded programming, but from reading online it sounds like it can be dangerous to use fork() in a multithreaded application. I'm not sure what to do as an alternative though.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!

You san see this answer: Application crashes on simulator 5.0 before reaching main.m
However, the linked solution didn't work for me. I had exactly the same diagnostic and absence of error message, but I found no "weak"-related issues in my project.pbxproj
However, I found that the cause of my problem was a deadlock in an +(void)initialize method.
More precisely, in this method I was calling dispatch_sync(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{[some block code]}). Changing this to a dispatch_async (note the "a") solved my problem.
The way I discovered the issue was accidental. While nothing seemed to happen, the "thread" navigator of Xcode was telling me that the app itself wasn't crashed. And I accidentaly clicked on "pause" in the debugger. And suddenly it stopped exactly where the deadlock was.
Enjoy.
I’ve a program developed using xlib and cairo. Just for the reference I do mix calls between cairo and xlib, although I’m not sure If that might be the cause of the error.
I get a deadlock or a block in some situations.
I’ve three threads that work with xlib. One is the main UI thread which makes calls to both xlib and cairo, another uses it just to send a XClientMessage and third makes some xlib calls like XCopyArea and at the end send an XClientMessage (those are for some animations).
I’ve called InitThreads in the beginning of the program. I’ve also guarded all xlib calls with XLockDisplay (cairo calls are also guarded with XLockDisplay).
I’m using ubuntu 10.10.
The stack traces are:

But thread 1 never seem to return from poll.
I’m not sure it is relevant (I’m by no means an expert on linux or libc), but I’ve another thread waiting in poll (it’s a thread for TCP/IP network communication)
(gdb) thread 2

Has anyone experience similar deadlock/block? Can this be a bug in xcb and is it worth trying to compile xlib without xcb?
Thanks
I just was running into an issue that had 1 in __lll_lock_wait () from
as a troublemaker as well. That was in an I/O portion of my code, perhaps your problem is there?
