I have a multithreaded program running on updated Fedora Core 4 that I am
trying to debug with GDB. When my program exits, gdb reports an error:
Cannot fetch general-purpose registers for thread [some big number]:
generic error
When I try to do anything else at this point, gdb hangs. Typing run results
in gdb not starting the program and becoming unresponsive. If I try to
quit, gdb becomes unresponsive and I have to kill the process from another
window.
I found an older bug describing this same problem, but occuring on gdb
version 5.3
http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl bug 1981
This is a GDB crash. Anyone know of a cause (could my program have a bug
that is causing it)? Anyone know of a fix?
Fredora Core 4:
Kernel: 2.6.17-1.2142_SMP
gdb: 6.3.0.0
gcc: 4.0.2-8
This same problem also occurs on Fedora Core 5:
Kernel: 2.6.17-2174
gdb: 6.3.0
gcc 4.1.1-1
Thanks for the help,
