https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=219153 --- Comment #4 from Mark Millard <markmi@dsl-only.net> --- A not as libkvm tied note about which gdb works better for 32-bit powerpc in at least some contexts: I took an a.out (from clang++ targeting powerpc) and tried /usr/local/bin/gdb and /usr/libexec/gdb on a core it generated: # gdb a.out /var/crash/a.out.29973.core GNU gdb (GDB) 7.12.1 [GDB v7.12.1 for FreeBSD] . . . Core was generated by `./a.out'. Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. Segmentation fault (core dumped) (gdb itself Segmentation faulted.) # /usr/libexec/gdb a.out /var/crash/a.out.29973.core GNU gdb 6.1.1 [FreeBSD] . . . Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault. Reading symbols from /usr/lib/libc++.so.1...Reading symbols from /usr/lib/debug//usr/lib/libc++.so.1.debug...done. . . . Loaded symbols for /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 #0 0x41b355d0 in _Unwind_SetGR (context=<value optimized out>, index=<value optimized out>, val=1105281072) at unwind-dw2-fde.h:162 162 { (gdb) bt #0 0x41b355d0 in _Unwind_SetGR (context=<value optimized out>, index=<value optimized out>, val=1105281072) at unwind-dw2-fde.h:162 #1 0x4192e370 in __gxx_personality_v0 (version=<value optimized out>, actions=<value optimized out>, exceptionObject=0x41e14030, context=0xffffd5c0) at /usr/src/contrib/libcxxrt/exception.cc:1203 #2 0x41b36234 in _Unwind_RaiseException_Phase2 (exc=<value optimized out>, context=<value optimized out>) at unwind.inc:66 #3 0x41b35e10 in _Unwind_RaiseException (exc=0xffffd5c0) at unwind.inc:135 #4 0x4192d870 in __cxa_throw (thrown_exception=<value optimized out>, tinfo=<value optimized out>, dest=<value optimized out>) at /usr/src/contrib/libcxxrt/exception.cc:774 #5 0x01800954 in main () at exception_test.cpp:5 Current language: auto; currently minimal The same thing happens for running the a.out inside gdb: /usr/local/bin/gdb gets a Segmentation fault of its own and /usr/libexec/gdb works, including allowing the bt. Historically I've primarily used the system gdb to do my analysis of clang's code generation problems for targeting powerpc. Including when I looked at gcc 4.2.1 generated code for comparison. The above sort of thing is an example of why. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
