I forgot to add the bt

 Hi All,
I am pretty new to using dbus and wondering if someone could help on understanding why I see a seqfault.
I am trying to write a client wrapper to communicate to a module on the host. 
I have generated the proxy header based on the interface of the host module. And have a method to communicate to the particular host module.

When I try to use that method to send a message to the host module, I see the above coredump.

Backtrace does not display anything - looks like stack is all corrupted.
This is my host module:
   @host_service.method(host_service.bus_name(MOD_NAME), in_signature='as', out_signature='is')
    def key_ctl(self, options):
        param = options[0]
        value = options[1]

Busctl shows the following:
root@sonic:~# busctl introspect org.SONiC.HostService.keyhandler  /org/SONiC/HostService/keyhandler
NAME                                TYPE      SIGNATURE RESULT/VALUE FLAGS
org.SONiC.HostService.keyhandler    interface -         -            -
.key_ctl                            method    as        is           -

This is the proxy xml:
  <interface name="org.SONiC.HostService.keyhandler">
      <method name="key_ctl">
          <arg direction="in"  type="as" name="data"/>                <!-- Must be a list of strings -->
          <arg direction="out" type="(is)" name="(success, output)"/> <!-- output -->
      </method>
  </interface>
My wrapper is as below:
static DBus::Connection  & get_dbusconn(){    static DBus::Connection  * conn_p = nullptr;    if (conn_p == nullptr)    {        // DBus::BusDispatcher is a "main loop" construct that        // handles (i.e. dispatched) DBus messages. This should        // be defined as a singleton to avoid memory leaks.        static DBus::BusDispatcher dispatcher;
        // DBus::default_dispatcher must be initialized before DBus::Connection.        DBus::default_dispatcher = &dispatcher;
        static DBus::Connection conn = DBus::Connection::SystemBus();
        conn_p = &conn;    }
    return *conn_p;}

using namespace std;extern "C" ::DBus::Struct<int, string>  HostQuery(const char *path_p, const char *val_p[]) {    // tokenize module and action    string s(path_p);    stringstream ss(s);    vector<string> tokens;    string temp_str;
    while (getline(ss, temp_str, '.')) { //use . as delim for tokenizing string       tokens.push_back(temp_str);    }    syslog(LOG_CRIT, "HostQuery - tokens[0] %s tokens[1] %s\n", tokens[0].c_str(), tokens[1].c_str());    syslog(LOG_CRIT, "HostQuery - val_p[0] %s val_p[1] %s\n", val_p[0], val_p[1]);
    // get absolute paths with the module    string name(DBUS_BUS_NAME_BASE);    name += tokens[0];
    string path(DBUS_OBJ_PATH_BASE);    path += tokens[0];    syslog(LOG_CRIT, "HOstQuery - name %s path %s\n", name.c_str(), path.c_str());    ::DBus::Struct<int/*success*/, std::string/*errmsg*/> ret;
    try {        keyhandler_proxy_c host_client(get_dbusconn(), path.c_str(), name.c_str());
        //TODO: need to find how many elements are there in val_p.        // for encrypt/decrypt, there may be only one element in it.        // but for masterkey update, there could be two elements        vector<string> vals = {"pwEncrypt","eventd"};
        //vector<string> vals;        //string v1(val_p[0]);        //string v2(val_p[1]);        //vals.push_back(v1);        //vals.push_back(v2);
        ret = host_client.key_ctl(vals);    } catch (DBus::Error & ex) {        syslog(LOG_CRIT, "hostquery - DBus Exception %s\n", ex.what());        syslog(LOG_CRIT, "hostquery (path %s val_p[0] %s \n", path_p, val_p[0]);    }
    return ret;}



The log shows the following.
