事后调试之MiniDump转储
程序发布后,针对在用户使用过程中出现的一些问题进行调试,这个过程可以称为是事后调试。在程序Crash时转储MiniDump文件供软件开发工程师分析是一种比较常用的方法。下面介绍两种常用的在程序Crash时转储MiniDump文件的方法。
1. MiniDumpWriteDump
MiniDumpWriteDump是windows DbgHelp.dll提供的一个转储进程MiniDump的API,可以将其导入到C#程序中。
1 using System; 2 using System.Diagnostics; 3 using System.IO; 4 using System.Runtime.InteropServices; 5 using System.Threading; 6 7 public class MiniDumpUtil 8 { 9 [DllImport("kernel32.dll")] 10 private static extern int GetCurrentThreadId(); 11 12 [DllImport("DbgHelp.dll")] 13 private static extern bool MiniDumpWriteDump(IntPtr hProcess, int processId, IntPtr fileHandle, MiniDumpType dumpType, ref MiniDumpExceptionInfo excepInfo, IntPtr userInfo, IntPtr extInfo); 14 15 [DllImport("DbgHelp.dll")] 16 private static extern bool MiniDumpWriteDump(IntPtr hProcess, int processId, IntPtr fileHandle, MiniDumpType dumpType, IntPtr excepParam, IntPtr userInfo, IntPtr extInfo); 17 18 public static bool TryWriteMiniDump(string dmpFileName, MiniDumpType dmpType) 19 { 20 using (FileStream stream = new FileStream(dmpFileName, FileMode.OpenOrCreate)) 21 { 22 Process process = Process.GetCurrentProcess(); 23 MiniDumpExceptionInfo exceptionInfo = new MiniDumpExceptionInfo(); 24 exceptionInfo.ThreadId = GetCurrentThreadId(); 25 exceptionInfo.ExceptionPointers = Marshal.GetExceptionPointers(); 26 exceptionInfo.ClientPointers = true; 27 if (exceptionInfo.ExceptionPointers == IntPtr.Zero) 28 { 29 return MiniDumpWriteDump(process.Handle, process.Id, stream.SafeFileHandle.DangerousGetHandle(), dmpType, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero); 30 } 31 else 32 { 33 return MiniDumpWriteDump(process.Handle, process.Id, stream.SafeFileHandle.DangerousGetHandle(), dmpType, ref exceptionInfo, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero); 34 } 35 } 36 } 37 } 38 39 [Flags] 40 public enum MiniDumpType 41 { 42 MiniDumpNormal = 0x00000000, 43 MiniDumpWithDataSegs = 0x00000001, 44 MiniDumpWithFullMemory = 0x00000002, 45 MiniDumpWithHandleData = 0x00000004, 46 MiniDumpFilterMemory = 0x00000008, 47 MiniDumpScanMemory = 0x00000010, 48 MiniDumpWithUnloadedModules = 0x00000020, 49 MiniDumpWithIndirectlyReferencedMemory = 0x00000040, 50 MiniDumpFilterModulePaths = 0x00000080, 51 MiniDumpWithProcessThreadData = 0x00000100, 52 MiniDumpWithPrivateReadWriteMemory = 0x00000200, 53 MiniDumpWithoutOptionalData = 0x00000400, 54 MiniDumpWithFullMemoryInfo = 0x00000800, 55 MiniDumpWithThreadInfo = 0x00001000, 56 MiniDumpWithCodeSegs = 0x00002000, 57 MiniDumpWithoutAuxiliaryState = 0x00004000, 58 MiniDumpWithFullAuxiliaryState = 0x00008000, 59 MiniDumpWithPrivateWriteCopyMemory = 0x00010000, 60 MiniDumpIgnoreInaccessibleMemory = 0x00020000, 61 MiniDumpWithTokenInformation = 0x00040000, 62 MiniDumpWithModuleHeaders = 0x00080000, 63 MiniDumpFilterTriage = 0x00100000, 64 MiniDumpValidTypeFlags = 0x001fffff 65 } 66 67 public struct MiniDumpExceptionInfo 68 { 69 public int ThreadId; 70 public IntPtr ExceptionPointers; 71 public bool ClientPointers; 72 }
这里要注意的一点是当前线程的ID,不能用当前线程的托管线程ID(即Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId),而是用当前线程的操作系统ID(即OSID),否则用windbg加载dump文件时可能会出现一些错误信息:
ERROR: Unable to find system thread 1
ERROR: The thread being debugged has either exited or cannot be accessed
ERROR: Many commands will not work properly
当然,这似乎对调试影响并不是很大,切换线程很容易通过windbg命令完成。
可以简单地在未处理异常中转储进程的MiniDump
1 class Program 2 { 3 static void Main(string[] args) 4 { 5 AppDomain.CurrentDomain.UnhandledException += new UnhandledExceptionEventHandler(CurrentDomain_UnhandledException); 6 7 TestMethod(-1); 8 } 9 10 static void CurrentDomain_UnhandledException(object sender, UnhandledExceptionEventArgs e) 11 { 12 MiniDumpUtil.TryWriteMiniDump("E:\\dump\\test.dmp", MiniDumpType.MiniDumpWithFullMemory); 13 } 14 15 static void TestMethod(int num) 16 { 17 if (num < 0) 18 { 19 throw new ArgumentException("The argument 'num' is less than zero!"); 20 } 21 } 22 }
运行程序后,会生成test.dmp文件,用windbg加载该dump文件,设置pdb路径,可以分析异常信息。以下是采用windbg分析输出的一些信息:

加粗部分是输入的调试命令,具体命令这里不作过多的说明。
2. Windows Error Reporting - Local Dump
Windows系统在 Server 2008, Vista SP1以后的版本中,Windows Error Reporting能够自动转储Crash程序的Dump文件。可以通过修改注册表来设定Dump文件的路径,类型等等。
运行regedit打开注册表,找到注册表项 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps ,如果没有可以自己建。这里包括以下几个值:
(1) DumpFolder 转储Dump文件的目录,默认路径为%LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps
(2) DumpCount 最大Dump数,若转储的Dump数超出该限制,则会以最新转储的Dump文件替换最早的
(3) DumpType 即Dump的类型,1-Mini Dump 2-Full Dump 0-Custom Dump
(4) CustomDumpFlags 该值仅在DumpType=0时有效,可以定制转储Dump的内容。可以取前面定义的枚举类型MiniDumpType中某几个值之和,如MiniDumpWithDataSegs | MiniDumpWithUnloadedModules
如果要针对某一个具体的应用程序来设置的话,可以在LocalDumps下面在以应用程序集的名称建一个项,然后同样要设置上述的几个值。
例如,在上面的程序中将转储进程MiniDump的相关代码去掉,在LocalDumps下创建DumpDemo.exe项,设置DumpType=0,CustomDumpFlags=2(即MiniDumpWithFullMemory),DumpFolder=E:\dump\DumpDemo 。运行程序(DumpDemo.exe)后,在E:\dump\DumpDemo\ 目录下就可以得到一个Dump文件。
