Here the gdb seems hangs and does not come out...
The same program been tried on Ubuntu 14.10 x86 VM; gdb could able to come
out and program ends normally.
I've found that this issue happens also on upstream gdb and not only
on ppc64 LE, but also on BE. It is also reproducible without STM.
This is a regression added recently upstream by commit
2adfaa28b5ba2fb78ba5113977082c4d04752bd6. I'll continue investigating.
Found this reduced testcase that reproduces the problem without -fgnu-

Here the gdb seems hangs and does not come out...
The same program been tried on Ubuntu 14.10 x86 VM; gdb could able to come
out and program ends normally.
I've found that this issue happens also on upstream gdb and not only
on ppc64 LE, but also on BE. It is also reproducible without STM.
This is a regression added recently upstream by commit
2adfaa28b5ba2fb78ba5113977082c4d04752bd6. I'll continue investigating.
Found this reduced testcase that reproduces the problem without -fgnu-
tm flag:
$ cat test.c
#include stdlib.h
#include stdio.h
#include unistd.h
#include pthread.h
void *func(void *arg)
{
int i,a;
for (i = 0; i 100; ++i)
a++;
return NULL;
}
int main()
{
pthread_t thread;
pthread_create(thread, NULL, func, NULL);
pthread_join(thread, NULL);
return 0;
}
$ gcc -g -lpthread test.c -o test
Found that this commit c1a747c10948e2298083179f4e8aeed8b962e2af fixes
the problem on upstream gdb. I'm backporting the patch for Ubuntu
package in order to double
