Hello,
When i run a program on command line it runs fine. But when i
run it gdb it gives me a SIGILL.
I know that is a problem with the code because dbx for AIX also
gives the SIGILL instruction.
But i've been not able to convince people in my organization it
is a problem with code.
What they do is they 'c' (continue) in gdb when it hits a
SIGILL and keep on continuing 2 times until it crashes somewhere else
in the code.
I wanted to know these 2 questions :
1) Once it hits a SIGILL can we continue and go to the next
crash and so on ? Is this valid .
2) How does gdb allow to continue on a SIGILL ?
Regards,
Navin
