Segmentation fault when running simple shell program - c

Question

I am trying to make a simple shell program with the C language which have the options of redirecting stdin and stdout and making a pipe but it's giving me a segmentation fault error. Maybe the problem is in the getline but I'm not sure. Here is the code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#define R 0
#define W 1
#define LINE_LEN 25
struct Job {
char* command;
char** argv;
int stdin;
int stdout;
} typedef Job;
int tokens_number = 0;
int sign_place = 0;
int contain_left = 0;
int contain_right = 0;
int contain_line = 0;
char** parse_cmdline (char * cmdline ){
char** arg = calloc(15, sizeof(char*));
char temp_cmd[LINE_LEN*10];
strcpy(temp_cmd, cmdline);
char * tmp;
tmp = strtok(temp_cmd, " ");
while(tmp != NULL) {
arg[tokens_number] = (char*) malloc(LINE_LEN * sizeof(char*));
strcpy(arg[tokens_number],tmp);
tmp = strtok(NULL, " ");
tokens_number++;
}
//LAST ELEMENT IS NULL
arg[tokens_number+1] = NULL;
return arg;
}
void check_for_special_signs(char** argv){
int i;
for(i=0; i<tokens_number; i++){
if(strcmp(argv[i], "<") == 0){
contain_left = 1;
sign_place = i;
return;
}else if(strcmp(argv[i], ">") == 0){
contain_right = 1;
sign_place = i;
return;
}else if(strcmp(argv[i], "|") == 0){
contain_line = 1;
sign_place = i;
return;
}
}
}
void fork_child(Job* my_job) {
pid_t pid = fork();
if (pid == 0) {
execv(my_job -> command, my_job -> argv);
perror(my_job -> command);
} else if (pid > 0) {
int status;
wait(&status);
} else
perror("fork");
}
char** create_argv(char** argv){
int i;
int j = 0;
char** argvs = calloc(sign_place,sizeof(char*));
if(sign_place!=0){
for(i=0; i < sign_place ; i++){
argvs[i] = (char*) malloc(sizeof(char*));
strcpy(argvs[i],argv[i]);
}
return argvs;
}else{
return argv;
}
}
void close_job(Job* my_job) {
if (my_job -> stdin != STDIN_FILENO)
close(my_job -> stdin);
if (my_job -> stdout != STDOUT_FILENO)
close(my_job -> stdout);
free(my_job);
}
int main() {
size_t s = 512;
char* buffer = malloc(s * sizeof(char));
char** sep_cmd = malloc(s * sizeof(char));
while (getline(&buffer, &s, stdin) != EOF) {
Job* my_job;
int my_pipe[2];
int in = 0;
int out = 1;
sep_cmd = parse_cmdline(buffer);
my_job->command = sep_cmd[0];
my_job->argv = sep_cmd;
my_job->stdin = in;
my_job->stdout = out;
check_for_special_signs(my_job->argv);
pid_t pid = fork();
if (pid == 0) {
if(contain_left == 1){
in = open(my_job->argv[sign_place + 1], O_RDONLY);
if(in < 0){
perror("open()");
}
my_job->argv = create_argv(my_job->argv);
my_job->stdin = in;
}else if(contain_right == 1){
out = open(my_job->argv[sign_place + 1], O_WRONLY | O_CREAT,
S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR | S_IRGRP | S_IROTH);
if (out < 0)
perror("open()");
my_job->argv = create_argv(my_job->argv);
my_job->stdout = out;
}else if(contain_line == 1){
pipe(my_pipe);
if (my_job -> stdin == my_pipe[R])
close(my_pipe[W]);
else
close(my_pipe[R]);
}
execv(my_job -> command, my_job -> argv);
perror(my_job -> command);
} else if (pid > 0) {
int status;
wait(&status);
} else{
perror("fork");
}
close_job(my_job);
free(buffer);
buffer = (char*) malloc(s * sizeof(char));
}
free(buffer);
return 0;
}
That way I can't see if there are more mistakes in the code. Please if you see more mistakes list them too.
Thank you.

You forgot to allocate memory for my_job in main function
