Package: gdb Version: 7.12-6+b1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
gdb incorrectly parses /proc/pid/cmdline, stopping at the first NUL byte encountered with a warning.
* Steps to reproduce: $ gdb --args /bin/ls -l Reading symbols from /bin/ls...(no debugging symbols found)...done. (gdb) b _start Function "_start" not defined. Breakpoint 1 (_start) pending. (gdb) r Starting program: /bin/ls -lBreakpoint 1, 0x00007ffff7dd9090 in _start () from /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
(gdb) info proc process 5618 warning: target file /proc/5618/cmdline contained unexpected null characters cmdline = '/bin/ls' cwd = '/homes/parras' exe = '/bin/ls' This happens for all command lines with arguments.The bug has already been fixed quite some time ago: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-04/msg00204.html
