Tombstones log is an error log in the Android system, which records the crash information of applications or system components. When an application or system component crashes due to a critical error, Tombstones logs are generated to record details of the crash so developers can troubleshoot and fix them.
Tombstones logs mainly contain the following information:
Crash Cause : Tombstones logs will provide the exact reason for the error that caused the application or system component to crash. This could be a crash condition due to a null pointer reference, invalid memory access, system service exception, etc.
Crash stack : Tombstones logs will contain stack trace information at the time of the crash, which shows the path of code execution and helps locate the specific location that caused the crash.
Process and thread information : Tombstones logs provide information about the application processes and threads involved in the crash, including process IDs and thread IDs.
By analyzing Tombstones logs, developers can understand why an application or system component crashed and locate problems based on stack trace information. This is important for troubleshooting and fixing, helping developers track down bugs, fix code, and improve application stability.
Tombstones logs are generally stored in the device /data/tombstones/directory, and each crash event corresponds to a separate log file. Tombstones log files can be obtained by accessing the device's file system, or using the ADB (Android Debug Bridge) tool.
It's important to note that the Tombstones logs are useful for development and troubleshooting, but general users don't have direct access to these logs. For ordinary users, an error report will be displayed when the system crashes, and the user can choose to send the error report to the developer for
