Re: posix semaphores not working under gdb


I'd be surprised if GDB were really disturbing the behavior of the
semaphores.  It's much more likely that GDB is disturbing the
real-time behavior of your program and showing up a bug in the locking
that your program, just by luck, never encounters when it's not being
debugged.

I don't know of any stories offhand of GDB breaking semaphores or mutexes.
