Comment 6 Victor Stinner 2021-02-17 17:00:40 UTC

I tested the package with gdb and it works as expected! gdb doesn't display any "optimized out" function parameter or variable: great! gdb is usable on python3-debug package!

I tested python39-3.9.1-5.module+el8.4.0+9921+36eefe8e on RHEL8. Installed "python39-debug python39-debuginfo python39-debugsource" packages.

----------------------

gdb is able to dislay all arguments of all functions in the "where" traceback. It is also able to inspect all variables of the _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault() frame which the evaluation loop of the Python bytecode.

=> it works as expected!

----------------------

gdb fails to display the arguments of most frames. Example: "cfunction_vectorcall_FASTCALL (func=<built-in method waitpid of module object at remote 0x7ffff7f456d0>, args=0x7fffef74d5d0, nargsf=<optimized out>, kwnames=<optimized out>)": 2 arguments are "optimized out".

Also, gdb fails to display variables in the _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault(): they are "optimized out".

=> gdb fails to inspect most function arguments and variables :-(
