c program used for Segmentation fault at line number 563 in pthread_create.c

Hi,

Please take a look at this issue. I have faced a SIGSEGV at line number 563 in
pthread_create.c. The program Crashed in the below fashion:
(gdb)s
514     in pthread_create.c
(gdb)
518     in pthread_create.c
(gdb)
563     in pthread_create.c
(gdb)
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

563     in pthread_create.c
(gdb)

I am going through the below link for details about the line number 563 in
pthread_create.c
http://code.woboq.org/userspace/glibc/nptl/pthread_create.c.html
557    if (iattr->flags & ATTR_FLAG_SCHED_SET)
558    memcpy (&pd->schedparam, &iattr->schedparam,
559    sizeof (struct sched_param));
560    else if ((pd->flags & ATTR_FLAG_SCHED_SET) == 0)
561    {
562    INTERNAL_SYSCALL (sched_getparam, scerr, 2, 0, &pd->schedparam);
563    pd->flags |= ATTR_FLAG_SCHED_SET;
564    }


What is the gcc version which I have used?
==========================================
gcc version 4.7.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.2-2ubuntu1)

How I compiled the program and what are all the options given and the warnings
produced?
===============================================================================
labro@ubuntu:~/Desktop/sree/DevUnix$ gcc max_trd_creation.c -g -lpthread
max_trd_creation.c: In function ÃmainÃ:
max_trd_creation.c:22:3: warning: passing argument 1 of Ãpthread_createà makes
pointer from integer without a cast [enabled by default]
In file included from max_trd_creation.c:2:0:
/usr/include/pthread.h:225:12: note: expected Ãpthread_t * __restrict__Ã but
argument is of type Ãpthread_tÃ


I have attached the piece of code which I have used for producing this seg
fault. 

Kindly ignore this if you dot see something useful. 


Thanks and Regards,
