Subject: GDB 7.4 adds shlib_events BPs, casuing problem in debugging vmlinux
Date: Wed, 30 May 2012 13:49:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <OF9A4BFC71.726F89BA-ONC1257A0E.004B4830-C1257A0E.004BCCB4@transmode.se> (raw)
Using above gdb I get this when trying to debug a kernel with a BDI2000 emulator:
#> powerpc-softfloat_4.5.3-linux-gnu-gdb vmlinux

Continuing.
Warning:
Cannot insert breakpoint -1.
Error accessing memory address 0xc0000000: Unknown error 4294967295.
This ia because gdb always inserts a special BP:
(gdb) maintenance info breakpoints
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
-1 shlib events keep y 0xc0000000 <_stext> inf 1
I cannot get rid of this shared lib BP.
Also linux does not use shard libs so why is it inserted in the fist place?
Is there some tweak I can use to disable this BP(patch even)?
