Marko Kiiskila resolved MYNEWT-172.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Assignee: Marko Kiiskila
Fix Version/s: v0_10_0
This should be better now. 'newt run' for native targets runs gdb script which
adds hooks to turn off SIGALRM signals while stopped. This should allow single
stepping without going via signal handler due to timer ticks.
> gdb debugging of sim target on Linux is challenging

> When using gdb to debug, step over works unreliably when the context switches
> in the middle of the execution. This is on a Linux system. Example:
> gdb ./project/slinky/bin/slinky/slinky.elf
> (gdb) b log_nmgr_append
> Breakpoint 1 at 0x804a275: file log_nmgr.c, line 144.
> (gdb) run
> Breakpoint 1, log_nmgr_append (njb=0x806a5c0 <nmgr_task_jbuf>) at
> log_nmgr.c:144
> 144 {
> (gdb) n
> 145 char msg_str[256] = {0};
> (gdb) n
> Warning:
> Cannot insert breakpoint 0.
> Cannot access memory at address 0x34e37066
> 0xf7e3d1d1 in siglongjmp () from /lib32/libc.so.6
