Hi. Sometimes when UML is debugged gdb miss breakpoints.
When process traced by gdb do fork, debugger remove breakpoints from child address space. There is possibility to trace more than one fork, but this not work with UML, I guess (only guess) there is a deadlock - gdb waits for UML and UML waits for gdb. When clone() is called with SIGCHLD and CLONE_VM flags, gdb see this as PTRACE_EVENT_FORK not as PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE and remove breakpoints from child and at the same time from traced process, because either have the same address space. Maybe it is possible to do fix in gdb, but I'm not sure if there is easy way to findout if traced and child processes share memory. So I do fix for UML, it simply do not call clone() with both SIGCHLD and CLONE_VM flags together. Additionally __WALL flag is used for waitpid() to assure not miss clone and normal process events. -- Regards Stanislaw Gruszka diff --git a/arch/um/drivers/net_user.c b/arch/um/drivers/net_user.c index 90d7f2e..09d497a 100644 --- a/arch/um/drivers/net_user.c +++ b/arch/um/drivers/net_user.c @@ -201,7 +201,7 @@ static int change_tramp(char **argv, char *output, int output_len) close(fds[1]); if (pid > 0) - CATCH_EINTR(err = waitpid(pid, NULL, 0)); + CATCH_EINTR(err = waitpid(pid, NULL, __WALL)); return pid; } diff --git a/arch/um/drivers/port_kern.c b/arch/um/drivers/port_kern.c diff --git a/arch/um/drivers/slip_user.c b/arch/um/drivers/slip_user.c index 5f06204..ffc473d 100644 --- a/arch/um/drivers/slip_user.c +++ b/arch/um/drivers/slip_user.c @@ -109,7 +109,7 @@ static int slip_tramp(char **argv, int fd) read_output(fds[0], output, output_len); printk("%s", output); - CATCH_EINTR(err = waitpid(pid, &status, 0)); + CATCH_EINTR(err = waitpid(pid, &status, __WALL)); if (err < 0) err = errno; else if (!WIFEXITED(status) || (WEXITSTATUS(status) != 0)) { diff --git a/arch/um/drivers/slirp_user.c b/arch/um/drivers/slirp_user.c index 1865089..f8b0987 100644 --- a/arch/um/drivers/slirp_user.c +++ b/arch/um/drivers/slirp_user.c @@ -99,7 +99,7 @@ static void slirp_close(int fd, void *data) } #endif - CATCH_EINTR(err = waitpid(pri->pid, &status, WNOHANG)); + CATCH_EINTR(err = waitpid(pri->pid, &status, WNOHANG | __WALL)); if (err < 0) { printk(UM_KERN_ERR "slirp_close: waitpid returned %d\n", errno); return; diff --git a/arch/um/drivers/ubd_user.c b/arch/um/drivers/ubd_user.c index 41d254b..875b1f3 100644 --- a/arch/um/drivers/ubd_user.c +++ b/arch/um/drivers/ubd_user.c @@ -49,7 +49,7 @@ int start_io_thread(unsigned long sp, int *fd_out) goto out_close; } - pid = clone(io_thread, (void *) sp, CLONE_FILES | CLONE_VM | SIGCHLD, + pid = clone(io_thread, (void *) sp, CLONE_FILES | CLONE_VM, NULL); if(pid < 0){ err = -errno; diff --git a/arch/um/drivers/xterm.c b/arch/um/drivers/xterm.c diff --git a/arch/um/kernel/reboot.c b/arch/um/kernel/reboot.c diff --git a/arch/um/kernel/syscall.c b/arch/um/kernel/syscall.c diff --git a/arch/um/os-Linux/aio.c b/arch/um/os-Linux/aio.c index 4158118..93dc0c8 100644 --- a/arch/um/os-Linux/aio.c +++ b/arch/um/os-Linux/aio.c @@ -218,7 +218,7 @@ static int init_aio_24(void) goto out_close_pipe; err = run_helper_thread(not_aio_thread, NULL, - CLONE_FILES | CLONE_VM | SIGCHLD, &aio_stack); + CLONE_FILES | CLONE_VM, &aio_stack); if (err < 0) goto out_close_pipe; @@ -254,7 +254,7 @@ static int init_aio_26(void) } err = run_helper_thread(aio_thread, NULL, - CLONE_FILES | CLONE_VM | SIGCHLD, &aio_stack); + CLONE_FILES | CLONE_VM, &aio_stack); if (err < 0) return err; diff --git a/arch/um/os-Linux/drivers/ethertap_user.c b/arch/um/os-Linux/drivers/ethertap_user.c index 4ff5536..99d3a50 100644 --- a/arch/um/os-Linux/drivers/ethertap_user.c +++ b/arch/um/os-Linux/drivers/ethertap_user.c @@ -132,7 +132,7 @@ static int etap_tramp(char *dev, char *gate, int control_me, if (c != 1) { printk(UM_KERN_ERR "etap_tramp : uml_net failed\n"); err = -EINVAL; - CATCH_EINTR(n = waitpid(pid, &status, 0)); + CATCH_EINTR(n = waitpid(pid, &status, __WALL)); if (n < 0) err = -errno; else if (!WIFEXITED(status) || (WEXITSTATUS(status) != 1)) diff --git a/arch/um/os-Linux/drivers/tuntap_user.c b/arch/um/os-Linux/drivers/tuntap_user.c index 6c55d3c..ff52a58 100644 --- a/arch/um/os-Linux/drivers/tuntap_user.c +++ b/arch/um/os-Linux/drivers/tuntap_user.c @@ -107,7 +107,7 @@ static int tuntap_open_tramp(char *gate, int *fd_out, int me, int remote, "errno = %d\n", errno); return err; } - CATCH_EINTR(waitpid(pid, NULL, 0)); + CATCH_EINTR(waitpid(pid, NULL, __WALL)); cmsg = CMSG_FIRSTHDR(&msg); if (cmsg == NULL) { diff --git a/arch/um/os-Linux/helper.c b/arch/um/os-Linux/helper.c index 7a72dbb..2201b99 100644 --- a/arch/um/os-Linux/helper.c +++ b/arch/um/os-Linux/helper.c @@ -76,7 +76,7 @@ int run_helper(void (*pre_exec)(void *), void *pre_data, char **argv) data.fd = fds[1]; data.buf = __cant_sleep() ?
