Message-ID: <878uedey48.fsf@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150331184727.GF13867@adacore.com> (Joel Brobecker's message of	"Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:47:27 -0700")

    
    I've been able to reproduce the problem, but when I checked again
    with a non-AdaCore debugger, the problem went away. I'm not really
    sure whether this indicates whether this is an issue caused by
    some of our local changes, or whether this is just a latent bug
    that gets triggered by those local changes. Either way, it felt like
    I would have no choice but to get more familiar with how those probes
    work. The problem is that I'm short on time again. But, if you have
    any kind of document describing how this data is laid out in the
    binary, I'm very interested.
    
I don't know of any document describing the DOF layout.  I would suggest
you to take a look to the script gdb/testsuite/lib/pdtrace.in.  It
creates and populates DOF sections and it documents the structure of the
generated data.

Feel free to send me any question you may have regarding DOF.  I will
try to help even if I am not a DOF expert myself :)
