Debugging Pthread Issue

Hi Experts,

I am using a simple application build on pthread in Linux SDK 7.0.

I could find that there is thread switch between two tasks ?

It got stuck in Task A itself instead of moving into Task B whereas the same works fine in the Ubuntu machines.

How to debug the same ?

Hi Lyf,

Probably the reason for the issue is some race condition. Could you post the source code for better investigation of the issue?

Hi Tsvetolin,

It is a big source code involving multiple tasks.

Even to identify which part misbehaves I need to debug it. Is it possible to run gdb in it ?

Hi Lyf,

Yes, it is possible to use gdb about multi thread debugging but there is some particularities which are described in the linked tip:
