(gdb) c Continuing. dl_main (phdr=, phnum=, user_entry=, auxv=) at rtld.c:2163 2163 LIBC_PROBE (init_complete, 2, LM_ID_BASE, r); Cannot find AT_ENTRY auxiliary vector entry. (gdb) That's because GDB can't figure out where the scratch pad is. This is a regression introduced by the earlier changes to make the Linux native target always work in non-stop mode. This commit makes GDB detect the case and fallback to stepping over breakpoints in-line. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-03-15 Pedro Alves PR gdb/19676 * infrun.c (displaced_step_prepare): Also disable displaced stepping on NOT_SUPPORTED_ERROR. * linux-tdep.c (linux_displaced_step_location): If reading auxv fails, throw NOT_SUPPORTED_ERROR instead of generic error. --- diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index cb95a89d6a5..3e72420282f 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,11 @@ +2016-03-15 Pedro Alves + + PR gdb/19676 + * infrun.c (displaced_step_prepare): Also disable displaced + stepping on NOT_SUPPORTED_ERROR. + * linux-tdep.c (linux_displaced_step_location): If reading auxv + fails, throw NOT_SUPPORTED_ERROR instead of generic error. + 2016-03-13 Marcin Kościelnicki * s390-linux-tdep.c (s390_gen_return_address): New function. diff --git a/gdb/infrun.c b/gdb/infrun.c index 3e8c9e0faf4..696105d0636 100644 --- a/gdb/infrun.c +++ b/gdb/infrun.c @@ -1894,7 +1894,8 @@ displaced_step_prepare (ptid_t ptid) { struct displaced_step_inferior_state *displaced_state; - if (ex.error != MEMORY_ERROR) + if (ex.error != MEMORY_ERROR + && ex.error != NOT_SUPPORTED_ERROR) throw_exception (ex); if (debug_infrun) diff --git a/gdb/linux-tdep.c b/gdb/linux-tdep.c index 555c302bc88..f197aa76fab 100644 --- a/gdb/linux-tdep.c +++ b/gdb/linux-tdep.c @@ -2426,7 +2426,8 @@ linux_displaced_step_location (struct gdbarch *gdbarch) location.
