             Bug #: 15520
           Summary: GDB step command crashed on non-stop mode
           Product: gdb
           Version: 7.6
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: threads
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: wei_si.a.xiao@alcatel-lucent.com
    Classification: Unclassified


I am using GDB non-stop mode to debug a multi-thread application. But it always
crashed when I use “step” command. I have tried version 7.4/7.5.1/7.6, the
result are same. The issue does not exist if we don’t use non-stop mode.
I have written a small program to test, easy to reproduce each time. The code
as below:

// test.cc
#include <string>
using namespace std;
void fun(string &str1, string &str2)
{
    str1 += str2;
}

int main(void)
{
   string str1 = "abc";
   string str2 = "def";
   fun(str1,str2);

   return 0;
}


Compile:
g++ -g test.cc -o test


The procedure for reproduce as below:
vm10-0-0-1:/root-# gdb ./test

pdf summary of call graph

Sometimes I find the summary graph produced by dot -Tpdf from the output
provided by gprof2dot handy as a visual overview.  Was just looking at the
output this morning out of curiosity and am attaching this file to see if it is
useful for others looking at this bug
