challenged and removed. (July 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) In computing, a bus error is a fault raised by hardware, notifying an operating system (OS) bus error 10 that a process is trying to access memory that the CPU cannot bus error linux physically address: an invalid address for the address bus, hence the name. In modern use on most architectures these bus error (core dumped) are much rarer than segmentation faults, which occur primarily due to memory access violations: problems in the logical address or permissions. On POSIX-compliant platforms, bus errors usually result in the SIGBUS

signal being sent to the process that caused the error. SIGBUS can also be caused by any general device fault that the computer detects, though a bus error rarely means that the computer hardware is physically broken—it is normally caused by a bug in a program's source code.[citation needed] Bus errors may also be raised for certain other paging errors; see below. bus error 10 mac Contents 1 Causes 1.1 Non-existent address 1.2 Unaligned access 1.3 Paging errors 2 Example 3 References Causes[edit] There are at least three main causes of bus errors: Non-existent address[edit] Software instructs the CPU to read or write a specific physical memory address. Accordingly, the CPU sets this physical address on its address bus and requests all other hardware connected to the CPU to respond with the results, if they answer for this specific address. If no other hardware responds, the CPU raises an exception, stating that the requested physical address is unrecognized by the whole computer system. Note that this only covers physical memory addresses. Trying to access an undefined virtual memory address is generally considered to be a segmentation fault rather than a bus error, though if the MMU is separate, the processor can't tell the difference. Unaligned access[edit] Most CPUs are byte-addressable, where each unique memory address refers to an 8-bit byte. Most CPUs can access individual bytes from each memory address, but they generally cannot access larger units (16 bits, 32 bits, 64 bits and so on) without these units being

Segmentation faults occur when accessing memory which does not belong to your process, they are very common and are typically the result of: using a pointer to something that was deallocated. using an uninitialized hence bogus pointer. using a null pointer. overflowing a buffer. PS: To be more precise this is not manipulating the pointer itself that will cause issues, it's accessing the memory it points to (dereferencing). share|improve this answer edited Oct 17 '08 at 15:18 answered Oct 17 '08 at 15:12 bltxd 5,71322336 52 They aren't rare; I'm just at Exercise 9 from How to Learn C the Hard Way and already encountered one... –11684 Mar 26 '13 at 20:12 5 Another cause of bus errors (on Linux anyway) is when the operating system can't back a virtual page with physical memory (e.g. low-memory conditions or out of huge pages when using huge page memory.) Typically mmap (and malloc) just reserve the virtual address space, and the kernel assigns the physical memory on demand (so called soft page faults.) Make a large enough malloc, and then write to enough of it and you'll get a bus error. –Eloff Jul 14 '15 at 0:09 add a comment| up vote 55 down vote A segfault is accessing mem

Today I woke up and was terrified to see that database server is down. I could connect to it via SSH, but it was responding with bus error to each and every command: [root@r1304 home]# ls Bus error [root@r1304 home]# tail /var/log/messages Bus error [root@r1304 home]# reboot Bus error [root@r1304 home]# free -m Bus error [root@r1304 home]# chkdisk Bus error I went to Data Center and did a hard reset, which seemed to help, but after a half an hour situation reapeated and now I can't even connet via SSH anymore. Any ideas what this could be? how to diagnose such a problem and what are possible fixes? Server has 32 GB RAM, 2xSSD drives with software RAID UPDATE According to Zabbix, when MySQL died, number of processes stated to increase drammaticaly, until I did a hard reset. What could those be?
