Hi,
I compiled GDB6.3 host=i686-linux,
target=i386-linux.
On the i386 target, run the compiled gdbserver, and
then break the middle of my test program. However, I
can only view 1 thread (main), all other thread cannot
be seen.
1. ldd gdbserver:
libthread_db.so.1 => /lib/tls/libthread_db.so.1
(0x00996000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x0085b000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00843000)
It seems that libthread_db.so has been linked to
gdbserver.
But...
2. after breaking in the middle of my test program, I
examine the /proc/PID/maps:
00843000-00858000 r-xp 00000000 03:02 755706

It seems that libthread_db.so has not been invoked.
3. I has tried "set debug remote 1" to examine the
remote protocol packets, but have no idea how shall
the expected packet look like??
Please advise. Thank you for your attention.
Regards.
