50 /* GNU/Linux libthread_db support.
52 libthread_db is a library, provided along with libpthread.so, which
53 exposes the internals of the thread library to a debugger. It
54 allows GDB to find existing threads, new threads as they are
55 created, thread IDs (usually, the result of pthread_self), and
56 thread-local variables.
58 The libthread_db interface originates on Solaris, where it is
59 both more powerful and more complicated. This implementation
60 only works for LinuxThreads and NPTL, the two glibc threading
61 libraries. It assumes that each thread is permanently assigned
62 to a single light-weight process (LWP).
64 libthread_db-specific information is stored in the "private" field
65 of struct thread_info. When the field is NULL we do not yet have
66 information about the new thread; this could be temporary (created,
67 but the thread library's data structures do not reflect it yet)
68 or permanent (created using clone instead of pthread_create).
70 Process IDs managed by linux-thread-db.c match those used by
71 linux-nat.c: a common PID for all processes, an LWP ID for each
72 thread, and no TID. We save the TID in private. Keeping it out
73 of the ptid_t prevents thread IDs changing when libpthread is
74 loaded or unloaded. */
