             Summary: Crash in tcmalloc stack unwinder
                 Key: KUDU-3030
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-3030
             Project: Kudu
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: build
    Affects Versions: 1.11.0
            Reporter: Todd Lipcon


We recently saw a crash where the tcmalloc heap profiler was trying to unwind 
the stack, and ended up accessing invalid memory. The issue here is that 
tcmalloc is relying on frame pointers for heap unwinding, but this particular 
stack trace was going through libstdc++, which was installed on the system and 
doesn't have frame pointers. "usually" this works OK, but when we get unlucky, 
we can crash.
