Hello ! to debug threaded apps, gdb uses a special libthread_db which seeks in the symbols of the exec the list of running threads. This list contains the glibc 'struct pthread' descriptor with pids and tids which values are relative to the namespace in which the threads were created. unless you run gdb in the same pid namespace, gdb will not see any thread in the debugged app. this is frustrating for some scenarios and some support from the kernel would be needed to address this issue. Here are some ideas : . enter a pid namespace. hard. . expose the pid numbers of a task in its pid namespaces, through some ways like /proc/self/stat or /proc/self/pids and modify gdb to make the conversion. How would you do it ?
