Re: Seg fault even though address space is accessible

***Apologize for the repetition. Maybe this is in a better format.

Hi All,

I got a segmentation fault while accessing a structure element.  
I pasted the output from gdb and the backtrace.

However I am able successfully access the structure using the address from
the gdb output 
after it seg faulted. Output from gdb also give below.

Any idea y this is happening? 
yes I am trying to access the structure element from where it seg faulted.

I am surely missing something.
Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
Ajay.
