Subject: A question about gcc and threads under Linux 2.4
Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2003 10:46:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200303181345.10851@zigzag.cs.msu.su> (raw)
Hello.
When debugging threaded programs with gdb, unexpected thread switches often
happen. E.g. if another gdb step-by-step executes one thread, and another
thread executes a system call, ofted gdb switches to than thread.
Gdb documentation says that on some targets gdb supports "set
scheduler-locking" command that can help to avoid this behaviuor. But
seems that this is not supported under Linux.
Is there any method to make debugging threads smarter under Linux? E.g. a
kernel patch, another threading library, some patch to gdb, etc? If there
are none, could someone assist me it implementing one?
Thank you for your help.
