At this stage, I do not see too much what is going wrong.
So, let's capture some more data.
On what distro/platform/... are you running ?
Can you also do the following experiments ?
1. under your user account (so no sudo, etc), do
# in one window:
valgrind sleep 100
# then in another window
vgdb --pid=xxxxxx help
This last help command should output the list of commands supported
by valgrind gdbserver
If that does not work (i.e. vgdb blocks), redo the same but
giving -v -v -v -d -d -d options to valgrind
and -d -d -d option to vgdb
and send the traces
2. If the above works, do the same operations, but with the technique
you use to launch mysql
IIUC, use sudo in one window to launch valgrind
and sudo in another window to launch vgdb
(I am not too sure what the --user=mysql option does/means for mysqld
so no idea if you can really simulate what that does easily).
Again, if that does not work, redo with the -v/-d args as above
3. If the above works, then give options -v/-d to
valgrind that runs mysql
and to the vgdb
As suggested by Josef, you might create a bug in bugzilla so as to
attach the traces (compressed if too big) of the first failing
experiment.
Thanks
Philippe
