Hello. It seems some bug in 2.6.6 (and up to 2.6.7-rc3-mm2) makes gdb useless - it is no longer possible to produce even a simple stack trace for any program. Attached it the test-case to demonstrate the bug. Its output under any 2.6.6 kernels is: --- (gdb) #0 0xffffe410 in ?? () #1 0xbffffa88 in ?? () #2 0x00000000 in ?? () --- Absolutely broken backtrace. And under 2.6.5 (the one that comes with RedHat FC2 at least) and under 2.4 kernels: --- (gdb) #0 0x00558402 in ?? () #1 0x0041ce83 in __waitpid_nocancel () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6 #2 0x08048645 in main (argc=1, argv=0xfef20f84) at gdb_tst.c:26 --- Perfect backtrace. Any ideas what have caused this? As I am using gdb very frequently, this bug gives me some headache.
