| Summary | 0000667: glibc misses backport of commit to support multiple namespaces in gdb | ||||
| Description | Glibc has in 9.8 has version 2.34, and backported a patch from 2.35: commit a93d9e03a3 ("Extend struct r_debug to support multiple namespaces [BZ #15971]"). However it's missing a backport of related commit 88361b408b ("elf: Copy l_addr/l_ld when adding ld.so to a new namespace"). Consequently, gdb is not able to track multiple namespaces. I proposed a workaround in gdb ( https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2026-August/229549.html ) but it was not deemed acceptable. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Reproduces by running any of the dlmopen test-cases of the gdb testsuite. For instance, gdb.base/dlmopen.exp. | ||||
