我正在为 python 编写一个 c 扩展。正如您在下面看到的，代码的目的是计算两个 vector 的欧氏距离。 第一个参数 n 是 vector 的维度， 第二个，第三个参数是float的两个列表。

我在 python 中这样调用函数:

import cutil
cutil.c_euclidean_dist(2,[1.0,1,0],[0,0])

它运行良好，返回正确的结果。 但是如果我这样做超过 100 次(维度是 1*1000)，它会导致段错误 - 核心转储:

#!/usr/bin/env python
#coding:utf-8
import cutil
import science
import time
a = []
b = []
d = 0.0 
for x in range(2500):
    a.append([float(i+x) for i in range(1000)])
    b.append([float(i-x) for i in range(1000)])

t1 = time.time()
for x in range(500):
    d += cutil.c_euclidean_dist(1000,a[x],b[x])
print time.time() - t1
print d

C代码在这里:

#include <python2.7/Python.h>
#include <math.h>

    PyObject *seq_a, *seq_b;
    int n;
    float * array_a,* array_b;
    PyObject *item;

    PyArg_ParseTuple(args,"iOO", &n , &seq_a, &seq_b);
    if (!PySequence_Check(seq_a) || !PySequence_Check(seq_b)) {
       PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "expected sequence");
       return NULL;
    }

    array_a =(float *)malloc(sizeof(float)*n);
    array_b =(float *)malloc(sizeof(float)*n);  

    if (NULL == array_a || NULL == array_b){

        Py_DECREF(seq_a);
        Py_DECREF(seq_b);
        return NULL;
    }

    int i;
    for(i=0;i<n;i++){
        item = PySequence_GetItem(seq_a,i);

            PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "expected sequence of float");
            return NULL;
        }
        array_a[i] = PyFloat_AsDouble(item);

        Py_DECREF(item);

        item = PySequence_GetItem(seq_b,i);
        if(!PyFloat_Check(item)) {
            free(array_a);
            free(array_b);
            Py_DECREF(seq_a);
            Py_DECREF(seq_b);
            Py_DECREF(item);
            PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "expected sequence of float"); 
            return NULL;
        }
        array_b[i] = PyFloat_AsDouble(item);
        Py_DECREF(item);
    }

    double sum = 0;
    for(i=0;i<n;i++){
        double delta = array_a[i] - array_b[i];
        sum += delta * delta;
    }

    free(array_a);
    free(array_b);
    Py_DECREF(seq_a);
    Py_DECREF(seq_b);

    return Py_BuildValue("d",sqrt(sum));
}

static PyMethodDef cutil_methods[] = {
    {"c_euclidean_dist",(PyCFunction)cutil_euclidean_dist,METH_VARARGS,NULL},
    {NULL,NULL,0,NULL}
};

PyMODINIT_FUNC initcutil(void) {
    Py_InitModule3("cutil", cutil_methods, "liurui's c extension for python");
} 

错误信息:

segmentation fault - core dump:

c扩展被编译成cutil.so，不知道怎么看dump。 但是我多次查看我的C代码，没有发现任何问题..

可能是内存问题？

应该是很简单的一段C代码，有什么问题吗？ 我需要你的帮助~非常感谢!

编辑: 我在最后一个返回附近评论最后 2 句话:

Py_DECREF(seq_a);
Py_DECREF(seq_b);  

然后它似乎运行良好。我觉得非常非常奇怪... 这两句的目的是释放(或释放)两个pyobject，为什么没有我认为必要的两句它也能很好地工作？

最佳答案

The c-extension is compiled to cutil.so, I do not know how to see the dump.

为了解决这个问题，我将引用 GNU Radio's GDB/Python debugging mini-tutorial :

Luckily, there's a feature called core dumping that allows the state of your program to be stored in a file, allowing later analysis. Usually, that feature is disabled; you can enable it by:

ulimit -c unlimited

Note that this only works for processes spawned from the shell that you used ulimit in. What happens here is that the maximum size of a core dump is set to unlimited (the original value is 0 in most cases).

Now, the core dump file lays in the current execution directory of the program that crashed. In our case, that's build/python/, but since all core dumps should have a name like core., we can use a little find magic:

marcus> find -type f -cmin 5 -name 'core.[0-9]*'

./build/python/core.22608

because that will find all _f_iles, changed/created within the last _5 min_utes, having a name that matches.

Using GDB with a core dump

having found build/python/core.22608, we can now launch GDB:

gdb programname coredump

i.e.

gdb /usr/bin/python2 build/python/core.22608

A lot of information might scroll by.

At the end, you're greeted by the GDB prompt:

(gdb) 

Getting a backtrace

Typically, you'd just get a backtrace (or shorter, bt). A backtrace is simply the hierarchy of functions that were called.

 (gdb)bt

[...] 跳过，

Frame #2 and following definitely look like they're part of the Python implementation -- that sounds bad, because GDB doesn't itself know how to debug python, but luckily, there's an extension to do that. So we can try to use py-bt:

(gdb) py-bt

If we get a undefined command error, we must stop here and make sure that the python development package is installed (python-devel on Redhatoids, python2.7-dev on Debianoids); for some systems, you should append the content of /usr/share/doc/{python-devel,python2.7-dev}/gdbinit[.gz] to your ~/.gdbinit, and re-start gdb.

The output of py-bt now states clearly which python lines correspond to which stack frame (skipping those stack frames that are hidden to python, because they are in external libraries or python-implementation routines)

...
