Subject: [patch] Fix threaded inferiors in child after fork
Date: Wed, 02 Jan 2008 10:34:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080102102912.GA6816@host0.dyn.jankratochvil.net> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 356 bytes --]
Hi,
if in the `set follow-fork-mode child' mode one gets into the forked child
where the child creates new thread GDB still does not have the threads support
initialized there and behaves erratically.
In fact the testcase may be redundant as it is just a part of another testcase
for the watchpoints-after-fork patch going to be sent now.
Regards,
Jan
