by Hi,
I'm using smartGDB and the version of MIT pthreads that can be
downloaded from the smartGDB site:
http://hegel.ittc.ukans.edu/projects/smartgdb/index.html
My system is stock Debian 1.3.1.
The problem is that smartGDB doesn't work quite right. When I
interrupt and do an ls-threads it doesn't know what the current
running thread is. The value of pthread_run (which is supposed to be
a pointer to the current thread) is null. When I run an
multithreaded application that does reads if I interrupt and attempt
to context switch I get crashes at random times. Sometimes in
smartGDB, and sometimes when I continue the application running.
According to the web site FSU threads is supposed to be supported.
However, the thread-debug command doesn't know anything about FSU
threads, and from looking at the source I can see that there is no
code to support that package.
Are these a known problems? Does smartGDB work for other people?
