gdb: Cannot find new threads: generic error

2018-06-06 02:26:09

When I run GDB against a program which loads a .so which is linked to pthreads, GDB reports error "Cannot find new threads: generic error".

Note that executable that I run is not linked with pthreads.

Any clues?

This function gets called on require 'ev' :

Additional information about my system:

$ uname -a
Linux localhost 2.6.31-20-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 04:38:19 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ lsb_release -a

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 9.10
Release:    9.10
Codename:   karmic

This also works:

LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libpthread.so.0 gdb --args ./app

64位的Ubuntu用户应该这样做：

LD_PRELOAD=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 gdb --args ./app

您也可以在包含以下文本的主目录中创建.gdbinit ：

set env LD_PRELOAD /lib/libpthread.so.0
