Known problems in GDB 5.3
|
|
|
|
See also: http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/bugs/
|
|
|
|
|
|
*-*-freebsd*
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Due to a kernel bug (kern/35175), detaching from an attached process
|
|
will very likely cause the process to be stop or die with a Trace/BPT
|
|
trap.
|
|
|
|
|
|
i386-*-freebsd[34]*
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
There is a bug (bin/41671) in FreeBSD's gcc that causes it to emit bad
|
|
debug information when using the stabs format (which is the default).
|
|
As a result GDB tends to place breakpoints on functions before the
|
|
function prologue, and information about function parameters and local
|
|
variables is lost. In earlier versions of GDB the effects were rather
|
|
limited, but starting with GDB 5.3 the influence is much more
|
|
prominent. As a workaround, compile your code with -gdwarf-2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
gdb/487: The top level make files used to build GDB are not compatible
|
|
with HP/UX make. As a workaround, use GNU make.
|
|
|
|
gdb/486: The HP/UX C compiler defaults to K&R mode but GDB only builds
|
|
with an ISO C compiler. The top level configuration incorrectly sets
|
|
CC to `cc' instead of `cc -Ae'. As a workaround, the correct compiler
|
|
can be specified as part of the configuration vis:
|
|
|
|
$ 'CC=cc -Ae' ./configure
|
|
|
|
|
|
s390*-*-*
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
gdb/513: GDB does not build on s390 GNU/Linux. The problem should be
|
|
fixed in more recent sources.
|
|
|
|
|
|
i386-*-freebsd4.4*
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
gdb/455: GDB doesn't build on a FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE system. The
|
|
problem is still being investigated.
|
|
|
|
alpha*-*-osf*
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
gdb/816: When building GDB with GCC 3.0.1, GDB is unable to load a core
|
|
file properly. It generates several errors and warnings regarding
|
|
unhandled core file section types, incorrect endianness, the failure to
|
|
load the registers. Are also incorrectly reported: The program name, the
|
|
cause of the program death, and the call stack at the moment of the
|
|
death. This problem has been reported on alpha-osf4.0f and alpha-osf5.1a.
|
|
To work-around the problem, add -D__digital__ to the CFLAGS when
|
|
building GDB vis:
|
|
|
|
$ make CFLAGS='-O2 -D__digital__'
|
|
|
|
|
|
i[3456]86-*-linux*
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
gdb/660: gdb does not build with GNU/Linux libc5. The symptom is a
|
|
parse error before `uintptr_t' or an error message about `uintptr_t'.
|
|
Upgrade to glibc 2.1.3 or later, which defines uintptr_t.
|
|
|
|
gdb/1030: GNU binutils 2.12.1 and earlier versions do not work properly
|
|
with gdb. If you use GNU binutils, upgrade to version 2.13 or later.
|
|
You can check the version of binutils with the command:
|
|
|
|
$ ld --version
|
