Not able to debug treads using gdb 6.6 on ARM11 + linux 2.6.11 kernel


All, 

I am trying to debug a multithreaded application (written in c++) on my ARM11 board on which linux 2.6.11 kernel is running. 

I had compiled gdb to run on target platorm  (configured with: --target=arm-linux, host=arm-linux, and --build=i686-linux). When i try to attach gdb to already running thread (using "attach PID") gdb gives following error: 

------------------------
(gdb) attach 368
Attaching to process 368
warning: process 368 is a cloned process
Reading symbols from /sbin/wsccmd...done.
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
[New Thread 1024 (LWP 356)]
Can't attach LWP 356: Unknown error 3
(gdb)
-----------------------

I do'nt understand why a new thread (PID: 356) is created, and why this unknown error is comming. please explain what may be wong here. Let me know if any more information is required. 

Please reply to chauhan_ait@yahoo.co.in also because i am not subscribed to the list yet. 

Thanks,
pankaj
