<h4 class="subsection">21.1.5 Commands Specific to <small>GNU</small> Hurd Systems</h4>
<a name="index-GNU-Hurd-debugging"></a>

<p>This subsection describes <small>GDB</small> commands specific to the
<small>GNU</small> Hurd native debugging.
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><code>set signals</code></dt>
<dt><code>set sigs</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-set-signals_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<a name="index-set-sigs_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<p>This command toggles the state of inferior signal interception by
<small>GDB</small>.  Mach exceptions, such as breakpoint traps, are not
affected by this command.  <code>sigs</code> is a shorthand alias for
<code>signals</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>show signals</code></dt>
<dt><code>show sigs</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-show-signals_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<a name="index-show-sigs_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<p>Show the current state of intercepting inferior&rsquo;s signals.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set signal-thread</code></dt>
<dt><code>set sigthread</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-set-signal_002dthread"></a>
<a name="index-set-sigthread"></a>
<p>This command tells <small>GDB</small> which thread is the <code>libc</code> signal
thread.  That thread is run when a signal is delivered to a running
process.  <code>set sigthread</code> is the shorthand alias of <code>set
signal-thread</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>show signal-thread</code></dt>
<dt><code>show sigthread</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-show-signal_002dthread"></a>
<a name="index-show-sigthread"></a>
<p>These two commands show which thread will run when the inferior is
delivered a signal.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set stopped</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-set-stopped_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<p>This commands tells <small>GDB</small> that the inferior process is stopped,
as with the <code>SIGSTOP</code> signal.  The stopped process can be
continued by delivering a signal to it.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>show stopped</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-show-stopped_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<p>This command shows whether <small>GDB</small> thinks the debuggee is
stopped.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set exceptions</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-set-exceptions_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<p>Use this command to turn off trapping of exceptions in the inferior.
When exception trapping is off, neither breakpoints nor
single-stepping will work.  To restore the default, set exception
trapping on.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>show exceptions</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-show-exceptions_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<p>Show the current state of trapping exceptions in the inferior.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set task pause</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-set-task_002c-Hurd-commands"></a>
<a name="index-task-attributes-_0028GNU-Hurd_0029"></a>
<a name="index-pause-current-task-_0028GNU-Hurd_0029"></a>
<p>This command toggles task suspension when <small>GDB</small> has control.
Setting it to on takes effect immediately, and the task is suspended
whenever <small>GDB</small> gets control.  Setting it to off will take
effect the next time the inferior is continued.  If this option is set
to off, you can use <code>set thread default pause on</code> or <code>set
thread pause on</code> (see below) to pause individual threads.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>show task pause</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-show-task_002c-Hurd-commands"></a>
<p>Show the current state of task suspension.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set task detach-suspend-count</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-task-suspend-count"></a>
<a name="index-detach-from-task_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<p>This command sets the suspend count the task will be left with when
<small>GDB</small> detaches from it.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>show task detach-suspend-count</code></dt>
<dd><p>Show the suspend count the task will be left with when detaching.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set task exception-port</code></dt>
<dt><code>set task excp</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-task-exception-port_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<p>This command sets the task exception port to which <small>GDB</small> will
forward exceptions.  The argument should be the value of the <em>send
rights</em> of the task.  <code>set task excp</code> is a shorthand alias.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set noninvasive</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-noninvasive-task-options"></a>
<p>This command switches <small>GDB</small> to a mode that is the least
invasive as far as interfering with the inferior is concerned.  This
is the same as using <code>set task pause</code>, <code>set exceptions</code>, and
<code>set signals</code> to values opposite to the defaults.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>info send-rights</code></dt>
<dt><code>info receive-rights</code></dt>
<dt><code>info port-rights</code></dt>
<dt><code>info port-sets</code></dt>
<dt><code>info dead-names</code></dt>
<dt><code>info ports</code></dt>
<dt><code>info psets</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-send-rights_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<a name="index-receive-rights_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<a name="index-port-rights_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<a name="index-port-sets_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<a name="index-dead-names_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<p>These commands display information about, respectively, send rights,
receive rights, port rights, port sets, and dead names of a task.
There are also shorthand aliases: <code>info ports</code> for <code>info
port-rights</code> and <code>info psets</code> for <code>info port-sets</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set thread pause</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-set-thread_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<a name="index-thread-properties_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<a name="index-pause-current-thread-_0028GNU-Hurd_0029"></a>
<p>This command toggles current thread suspension when <small>GDB</small> has
control.  Setting it to on takes effect immediately, and the current
thread is suspended whenever <small>GDB</small> gets control.  Setting it to
off will take effect the next time the inferior is continued.
Normally, this command has no effect, since when <small>GDB</small> has
control, the whole task is suspended.  However, if you used <code>set
task pause off</code> (see above), this command comes in handy to suspend
only the current thread.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>show thread pause</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-show-thread_002c-Hurd-command"></a>
<p>This command shows the state of current thread suspension.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set thread run</code></dt>
<dd><p>This command sets whether the current thread is allowed to run.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>show thread run</code></dt>
<dd><p>Show whether the current thread is allowed to run.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set thread detach-suspend-count</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-thread-suspend-count_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<a name="index-detach-from-thread_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<p>This command sets the suspend count <small>GDB</small> will leave on a
thread when detaching.  This number is relative to the suspend count
found by <small>GDB</small> when it notices the thread; use <code>set thread
takeover-suspend-count</code> to force it to an absolute value.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>show thread detach-suspend-count</code></dt>
<dd><p>Show the suspend count <small>GDB</small> will leave on the thread when
detaching.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set thread exception-port</code></dt>
<dt><code>set thread excp</code></dt>
<dd><p>Set the thread exception port to which to forward exceptions.  This
overrides the port set by <code>set task exception-port</code> (see above).
<code>set thread excp</code> is the shorthand alias.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set thread takeover-suspend-count</code></dt>
<dd><p>Normally, <small>GDB</small>&rsquo;s thread suspend counts are relative to the
value <small>GDB</small> finds when it notices each thread.  This command
changes the suspend counts to be absolute instead.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>set thread default</code></dt>
<dt><code>show thread default</code></dt>
<dd><a name="index-thread-default-settings_002c-GNU-Hurd"></a>
<p>Each of the above <code>set thread</code> commands has a <code>set thread
default</code> counterpart (e.g., <code>set thread default pause</code>, <code>set
thread default exception-port</code>, etc.).  The <code>thread default</code>
variety of commands sets the default thread properties for all
threads; you can then change the properties of individual threads with
the non-default commands.
