Re: GDB problem on Debian ia64

I compiled Linux 3.7.0-rc3 and installed GDB 7.4.1-3 (sid) -- doing "gdb man" hits a breakpoint at 0x0000000000000000 just like he described. I'm not sure if it is a kernel thing -- I just compiled mine from Linus's git repository last night. I don't mind doing a little spelunking into the kernel code though -- you think it might have to do with the accept4() syscall? Any other hints? (For a second, I was about to write, "let's just run GDB in GDB and then we can..." -- doh).

Hi Stephan,

This vaguely reminds me something... Yes, back in February, while I
was still chasing what in the end was missing accept4 syscall, I
experienced a similar issue
(http://lists.debian.org/debian-ia64/2012/01/msg00016.html). From this
post, this was with linux-image-3.1.0-1-mckinley_3.1.8-2_ia64.deb
Debian kernel. I don't remember the GDB version though (probably the
one in Testing repository at this time) and I no more have the GDB
core dump I'm talking about in this post :-(

Kernel image and GDB currently in Testing repository
(linux-image-mckinley-3.2+45 and gdb-7.4.1-3) work fine as I've just
updated bug #642750
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=642750) using such a
configuration. Looking at my aptitude logs, gdb-7.4.1-1.1 was working
fine too.

Hope this helps,

Émeric
