[jira] [Created] (ARROW-2652) [C++/Python] Document how to provide information on segfaults

Uwe L. Korn created ARROW-2652:
----------------------------------

             Summary: [C++/Python] Document how to provide information on segfaults
                 Key: ARROW-2652
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2652
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++, Documentation, Python
            Reporter: Uwe L. Korn
             Fix For: 0.11.0


We often have users that report segmentation faults in {{pyarrow}}. This will sadly keep reappearing as we also don't have the magical ability of writing 100%-bug-free code. Thus we should have a small section in our documentation on how people can give us the relevant information in the case of a segmentation fault. Preferably the documentation covers {{gdb}} and {{lldb}}. They both have similar commands but differ in some minor flags.

For one of the example comments I gave to a user in tickets see https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/2089#issuecomment-393477116
