Subject: [PATCH 0/2][PR GDB/32956] gdb: fix GDB failing to find build-id debug files in linux mount namespaces
Date: Sun, 11 May 2025 17:01:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250511150113.3163767-1-kilger@sec.in.tum.de> (raw)

GDB can no longer find build-id debug files in docker containers.
The cause is the new algorithm to look for a build-id-based debug file
(introduced by commit 22836ca88591ac7efacf06d5b6db191763fd8aba).
It makes use of fileio_stat. As fileio_stat is not supported by
gdb/nat/linux-namespace.c, all stat calls would be performed on the
host and not inside the mount namespace. Furthermore, gdb/build-id.c
calls target_fileio_stat with inferior none, thus stat will always be
performed on the host mount namespace instead of the target's mount
namespace.

The patch is split into two parts: First, add support for fileio_stat
querying the linux mount namespace and second, adjust gdb/build-id.c
to call target_fileio_stat with current_inferior () instead of nullptr.

Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32956
