Hi,
testcase results may depend on patch:
[patch] Fix gdbserver qGetTLSAddr for x86_64 -m32
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-04/msg00154.html
Message-ID: <20140410114901.GA16411@host2.jankratochvil.net>
There is:
* gdb.threads/staticthreads.exp to test -static -pthread 'info threads'
* gdb.threads/tls.exp to test TLS access (__thread variables)
but no testcase to test both together - it even does not work.
I have posted:
TLS variables access for -static -lpthread executables
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-help/2014-03/msg00024.html
and the GDB patch below has been confirmed as OK for current glibcs.
Future glibcs may implement more native support for -static -pthread TLS
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16828
which will require also some new GDB support.
Still the patch below implements the feature in a fully functional way backward
compatible with current glibcs, it depends on the following glibc source line:
csu/libc-tls.c
main_map->l_tls_modid = 1;
No regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32}-fedorarawhide-linux-gnu.
Thanks,
Jan

Fix TLS access for -static -pthread.
* linux-thread-db.c (struct thread_db_info): Add td_thr_tlsbase_p.
(try_thread_db_load_1): Initialize it.
(thread_db_get_thread_local_address): Call it if LM is zero.
* target.c (target_translate_tls_address): Remove LM_ADDR zero check.
* target.h (struct target_ops) (to_get_thread_local_address): Add
load_module_addr comment.
