pstack 跟踪进程栈

pstack命令介绍

pstack 是一个用于 Linux 的实用程序，用于为正在运行的进程生成堆栈跟踪。这对于调试多线程程序，特别是在它们挂起或死锁时，非常有用。

实现脚本

#!/bin/bash

if test $# -ne 1; then
    echo "Usage: `basename $0 .sh` <process-id>" 1>&2
    exit 1
fi

if test ! -r /proc/$1; then
    echo "Process $1 not found." 1>&2
    exit 1
fi

# GDB doesn't allow "thread apply all bt" when the process isn't
# threaded; need to peek at the process to determine if that or the
# simpler "bt" should be used.

backtrace="bt"
if test -d /proc/$1/task ; then
    # Newer kernel; has a task/ directory.
    if test `/bin/ls /proc/$1/task | /usr/bin/wc -l` -gt 1 2>/dev/null ; then
        backtrace="thread apply all bt"
    fi
elif test -f /proc/$1/maps ; then
    # Older kernel; go by it loading libpthread.
    if /bin/grep -e libpthread /proc/$1/maps > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then
        backtrace="thread apply all bt"
    fi
fi

GDB=${GDB:-/usr/bin/gdb}

if $GDB -nx --quiet --batch --readnever > /dev/null 2>&1; then
    readnever=--readnever
else
    readnever=
fi

# Run GDB, strip out unwanted noise.
$GDB --quiet $readnever -nx /proc/$1/exe $1 <<EOF 2>&1 |
$backtrace
EOF
/bin/sed -n \
    -e 's/^(gdb) //' \
    -e '/^#/p' \
    -e '/^Thread/p'

安装

ubuntu下安装

使用apt-get install pstack命令安装会报错pstack: Input/output error failed to read target.
网上的方法是将以上脚本强行替换。

ARM下安装

脚本

#!/bin/sh

if test $# -ne 1; then
    echo "Usage: `basename $0 .sh` <process-id>" 1>&2
    exit 1
fi

if test ! -r /proc/$1; then
    echo "Process $1 not found." 1>&2
    exit 1
fi

# GDB doesn't allow "thread apply all bt" when the process isn't
# threaded; need to peek at the process to determine if that or the
# simpler "bt" should be used.

backtrace="bt"
if test -d /proc/$1/task ; then
    # Newer kernel; has a task/ directory.
    if test `/bin/ls /proc/$1/task | /usr/bin/wc -l` -gt 1 2>/dev/null ; then
    backtrace="thread apply all bt"
    fi
elif test -f /proc/$1/maps ; then
    # Older kernel; go by it loading libpthread.
    if /bin/grep -e libpthread /proc/$1/maps > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then
    backtrace="thread apply all bt"
    fi
fi

GDB=${GDB:-/usr/bin/gdb}

# Run GDB, strip out unwanted noise.
# --readnever is no longer used since .gdb_index is now in use.
$GDB --quiet -nx $GDBARGS /proc/$1/exe $1 <<EOF 2>&1 |
set width 0
set height 0
set pagination no
$backtrace
EOF
/bin/sed -n \
    -e 's/^\((gdb) \)*//' \
    -e '/^#/p' \
    -e '/^Thread/p'

pstack命令的输出

pstack命令的常用参数

pstack 命令的常见形式非常简单：pstack [pid]，其中 [pid] 是你想要跟踪的进程的进程ID。

pstack命令的优势

• pstack 命令可以提供程序的实时堆栈跟踪，这对于调试多线程程序非常有用。
• pstack 命令可以在程序运行时使用，不需要任何特殊的编译选项或调试符号。
