The inferior associated with the pspace is gone, and the current inferior is a different one and is running. Therefore get_current_arch tries to read the current frame which causes reads of data in the current program space which we've just deleted. * python/py-progspace.c (py_free_pspace): Call target_gdbarch instead of get_current_arch. --- diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index ece66c261e7..0c87bfff3c5 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,8 @@ +2014-05-20 Doug Evans + + * python/py-progspace.c (py_free_pspace): Call target_gdbarch + instead of get_current_arch. + 2014-05-20 Pedro Alves * NEWS: Mention that compare-sections now works with all targets. diff --git a/gdb/python/py-progspace.c b/gdb/python/py-progspace.c index cda5a86ff91..db4c564ac22 100644 --- a/gdb/python/py-progspace.c +++ b/gdb/python/py-progspace.c @@ -241,7 +241,16 @@ py_free_pspace (struct program_space *pspace, void *datum) { struct cleanup *cleanup; pspace_object *object = datum; - struct gdbarch *arch = get_current_arch (); + /* This is a fiction, but we're in a nasty spot: The pspace is in the + process of being deleted, we can't rely on anything in it.
