Hi,

I am trying to debug a multi-threaded application on arm-linux  target
from i386-linux host using GDB-5.3. 

I am using gcc(3.2.3) and using the same set of shared libraries (came
with gcc(3.2.3)on the target also in order to run gdbserver.

Below is my sample application 
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
1 #include <stdio.h>
      2 #include <pthread.h>
      3
      4 void * call_back(void *);
      5 int main()
      6 {
      7         int count=0;
      8         pthread_t thread_id;
      9         if ( pthread_create(&thread_id, NULL, call_back, NULL)
!= 0){
     10                 perror("pthread_create() Failed");
     11                 return 0;
     12         }
     13         while(1){
     14                 count++;
     15                 sleep(1);
     16                 printf("Main Thread Count (%d) \n", count);
     17         }
     18 }
     19 void    * call_back(void *arg)
     20 {
     21         int count=0;
     22         while(1){
     23                 count++;
     24                 sleep(3);
     25                 printf("Thread Loop count (%d) \n", count);
     26         }
     27 }

On the Target Side, the child thread got created and this is the
following screen shot

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
./gdbserver 107.108.3.197:2020 ./threads
Process ./threads created; pid = 189

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%


Points to be clarified
----------------------
1. What happened to debug messages from Main thread on the target?
2. How to resolve the error messgae "Program received signal ?, Unknown
signal" came on the Host Side.  

Am I missing anything out in this case?


Thanks and Regards,
Balaram.
