            Bug ID: 27677
           Summary: gdb print wrong address of global variable in coredump
                    analysis
           Product: gdb
           Version: 8.1
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: 1371561216 at qq dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

OS: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS
gdb version:  8.1.1

Our team developed a program `main` that dlopen `/usr/lib/libxxx.so`. We now
have a coredump but not the `main` program. We try to analyze it by `gdb
/usr/lib/libxxx.so core`, and find it crashes at a function call inside
`libxxx.so`. But when trying to print the address of a global variable defined
in `libxxx.so`, gdb show the unrelocated address. If we change the gdb command
to `gdb /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 core` it then print the right value. I
guess the original address is overwritten.

Hi,

Could you please try with a more recent GDB, ideally the master branch?

If the problem still happens, please share some reproducer source code, along
with all the compilation and debugger commands to reach the problem.

Simon
