When debugging a program on ARMv7 with thread-local storage declared using "__thread", attempting to print a thread-local variable will result in the following message:
Cannot find thread-local storage for Thread <snip> (LWP <snip>), executable file /tmp/tls: capability not available This can be traced back to uclibc libpthread/nptl_db/td_thr_tls_get_addr.c which gdb uses to look up the address of the TLS. The function returns TD_NOCAPAB due to a mismatch in size between the DTV pointer and the size recorded in the db description. The problem lies in libpthread/nptl_db/db_info.c which initializes the db with the sizeof the union dtv. Instead it should be the sizeof a pointer to union dtv. Fixed the initial size for dtvp to sizeof a pointer, instead of sizeof the union.
