1 Hi,
2
3 I'm running a gentoo-hardened (amd64) system compiled with PIE
4 support. Now I want to debug those PIE executables, any recommendations
5 how to debug PIE executables ?
6
7 I tried gdb-6.8 + patches from Fedora GNU/Linux 9 beta and tried to
8 build it. I got that built successfully, and I'm also able to debug PIE
9 applications successfully. But the issue, I'm facing is that I'm not
10 able to build the gdb-6.8+patches combination using an ebuild
11 successfully. The resultant gdb from ebuild, comes out to be not PIE
12 debugging capable, whereas gdb built from the same flags using
13 "./configure && make" works fine.
14
15 Following is the URL of the bzip2-ed tarball containg ebuild, and
16 patches tarball:

18 http://wahjava.googlepages.com/gdb-6.8-ebuild.tar.bz2
19 md5sum: 18903f0f0c0507d580b6faa2f2667b9c
20 size: 121686
21
22 To build the gdb-6.8 without going through ebuild extract
23 gdb-6.8.tar.bz2, and apply all patches using 'patch -p1' in root of
24 gdb-6.8 directory.
25
26 Is there any error in my ebuild ? or am I missing anything ? Or any
27 other recommended way to debug PIE executables in Gentoo Hardened ?
28
29 TIA
