gcc8之前，coredump文件无法显示正确的函数调用栈信息

在c++里，如果在Thread中有未捕获的异常，那么gcc会主动catch该异常，从而导致函数栈中无有用的信息。

下面是一个例子

#include <stdexcept>
#include <thread>
void foo()
{
    throw std::runtime_error("foo");
}

void subroutine() {
    std::thread t(foo);
    t.join();
}

int main()
{
    std::thread t(subroutine);
    t.join();
}

使用编译命令

g++ -Wall -std=c++0x -g tmp.cpp

然后使用gdb执行

gdb a.out

(gdb) r
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".
[New Thread 0x7ffff7dc1700 (LWP 2427)]
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  foo

运行bt调出函数栈信息，发现没有有效的内容

   Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.

   #7  0x00000034906eeddd in clone () from /lib/libc.so.6

解决方案

#include <stdexcept>
#include <thread>
void foo()
{
    throw std::runtime_error("foo");
}

void subroutine() {
    boost::thread t(foo);
    t.join();
}

int main()
{
    boost::thread t(subroutine);
    t.join();
}

2. 改用pthread

#include <stdexcept>
//#include <thread>
void *foo(void *)
{
    throw std::runtime_error("foo");
}

void *subroutine(void *a) {
    pthread_t thread_id;
    pthread_create(&thread_id, NULL, foo, NULL);
    pthread_join(thread_id,NULL);

    return NULL;
}

int main()
{
    pthread_t thread_id;
    pthread_create(&thread_id, NULL, subroutine, NULL);
    pthread_join(thread_id,NULL);

    return 0;
}

这时的函数栈可以显示到对应的crash函数了

#0  0x00007f1b7840b1f7 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1  0x00007f1b7840c8e8 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6

#5  0x00007f1b78d0fc53 in __cxa_throw () from /lib/libstdc++.so.6
#6  0x00000000004007bb in foo ()
    at main.cpp:5
#7  0x00007f1b78fc0e25 in start_thread () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
#8  0x00007f1b784ce34d in clone () from /lib/libc.so.6

3. 按照介绍的在函数上使用noexcept修饰 (但是好像不行)
4. 更换未gcc8
