Bug ID: 15652
Summary: full symlink resolution prevents gdb from finding
fission dwp files
Product: gdb
Version: HEAD
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: symtab
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: dje at google dot com
GDB expects to be able to find a binary's dwp file in the same directory as the
binary. [gdb will also search debug-file-directory, but it first looks in the
same directory as the binary] But if the binary is actually a symlink to a file
in a different directory than the dwp file, then things break.
Fission ref: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/DebugFission
Repro:
1) build binary + binary.dwp
2) mkdir foo
3) ln -s ../binary foo/binary
4) mv binary.dwp foo
5) gdb foo/binary
-->
gdb can't find binary.dwp
