[systemd-devel] Tips for using GDB to analyze systemd init process (`/sbin/init`)

[Paul Menzel]

Dear systemd folks,


using Debian Sid/unstable with systemd 215-12, I attached to it with GDB
to analyze some things. Attached with `gdb --pid 1` worked.

But continuing the execution and then hitting Ctrl + c to stop and
analyze it again, systemd caught that command and shut the system down.

How do you accomplish the goal to analyze systemd with GDB?


Thanks,

Paul
