Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Add some linker namespaces conveniences
Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2025 11:54:40 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250407145443.1895323-1-guinevere@redhat.com> (raw)
This series is a second step in improving the User Experience of
debugging inferiors with multiple namespaces. It adds 2 things to make
it more convenient for users to understand what the inferior is doing.
The first patch adds convenience variables, specifically _active_namespaces
and _current_namespaces. These can be used to track where in the execution
of an inferior the user is, and could be used in breakpoint conditions
to stop at a specific namespace.
The third patch adds a new command, "info namespaces", to help the user
check what solibs are loaded, and where. To make the patch more
readable, the second patch is a minor refactor of the command "info
sharedlibrary".
Guinevere Larsen (3):
gdb: add convenience variables around linker namespace debugging
gdb: factor out printing a table of solibs for info sharedlibrary
GDB: Introduce "info namespaces" command
