Hi Christian,
OK. I tried this gdb and it did not work.
So, lets now talk about this in the context of a freshly download genode and just using the "make app/gdb_monitor" and "make run/gdb_monitor" commands.
This is what I tried and it failed (log below).
(gdb) break Genode::printf (gdb) c --continuing, test program does not break on printf. (gdb) ctrl-c (gdb) break Genode::printf (gdb) c --program this time breaks on breakpoint (gdb) c --program reports invalid context capability and stops.
Can you try this simple test yourself? The only other thing I could try is to rebuild the custom genode-gcc compiler.
Thanks Daniel

Hi Daniel,
you're right about the quota of the signal session. It gets upgraded dynamically and the "Quota exceeded!" warning can be ignored in this case.
I'm not sure about the cause of the breakpoint problem. Which version of GDB are you using? If it's not the current version 7.3.1, my first suggestion would be to try this version, which is also the version the GDB monitor implementation is based on. You can find the GDB 7.3.1 source archive in the 'ports/download' directory and build a GDB specifically for Genode by using the following 'configure' line:
configure --prefix=/usr/local/genode-gcc --program-prefix=genode-x86-
When starting GDB from a run script, the '[gdb]' function looks for CROSS_DEV_PREFIX-gdb first, so it already prefers the Genode-GDB to the host GDB.
There's currently no programmatic API to trigger a breakpoint, but it should work with asm("int $4").
Regards, Christian

Hi Norman, This worked, but I am still not out of the woods. First, there seems to be a signal quota issue (although I think this may be OK as more quota is requested dynamically?). Second I have trouble setting break points. When I set a break point and continue in gdb, it reports warning: Error removing breakpoint X.
Also, is there a programmatic API to trigger a break into GDB (asm("int3") enters JDB)?
Regards, Daniel
