Roughly speaking, it holds all the data associated with a non-running-yet program (main executable, main symbols), and when an inferior is running and is bound to it, includes the list of its mapped in shared libraries. In the traditional debugging scenario, there's a 1-1 correspondence among program spaces, inferiors and address spaces, like so: pspace1 (prog1) <--> inf1(pid1) <--> aspace1 In the case of debugging more than one traditional unix process or program, we still have: |-----------------+------------+---------| | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 | |----------------------------------------| | pspace2 (prog1) | no inf yet | aspace2 | |-----------------+------------+---------| | pspace3 (prog2) | inf2(pid2) | aspace3 | |-----------------+------------+---------| In the former example, if inf1 forks (and GDB stays attached to both processes), the new child will have its own program and address spaces. Like so: |-----------------+------------+---------| | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 | |-----------------+------------+---------| | pspace2 (prog1) | inf2(pid2) | aspace2 | |-----------------+------------+---------| However, had inf1 from the latter case vforked instead, it would share the program and address spaces with its parent, until it execs or exits, like so: |-----------------+------------+---------| | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 | | | inf2(pid2) | | |-----------------+------------+---------| When the vfork child execs, it is finally given new program and address spaces. |-----------------+------------+---------| | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 | |-----------------+------------+---------| | pspace2 (prog1) | inf2(pid2) | aspace2 | |-----------------+------------+---------| There are targets where the OS (if any) doesn't provide memory management or VM protection, where all inferiors share the same address space --- e.g. uClinux. GDB models this by having all inferiors share the same address space, but, giving each its own program space, like so: |-----------------+------------+---------| | pspace1 (prog1) | inf1(pid1) | | |-----------------+------------+ | | pspace2 (prog1) | inf2(pid2) | aspace1 | |-----------------+------------+ | | pspace3 (prog2) | inf3(pid3) | | |-----------------+------------+---------| The address space sharing matters for run control and breakpoints management. E.g., did we just hit a known breakpoint that we need to step over? Is this breakpoint a duplicate of this other one, or do I need to insert a trap? Then, there are targets where all symbols look the same for all inferiors, although each has its own address space, as e.g., Ericsson DICOS. In such case, the model is: |---------+------------+---------| | | inf1(pid1) | aspace1 | | +------------+---------| | pspace | inf2(pid2) | aspace2 | | +------------+---------| | | inf3(pid3) | aspace3 | |---------+------------+---------| Note however, that the DICOS debug API takes care of making GDB believe that breakpoints are "global". That is, although each process does have its own private copy of data symbols (just like a bunch of forks), to the breakpoints module, all processes share a single address space, so all breakpoints set at the same address are duplicates of each other, even breakpoints set in the data space (e.g., call dummy breakpoints placed on stack). This allows a simplification in the spaces implementation: we avoid caring for a many-many links between address and program spaces. Either there's a single address space bound to the program space (traditional unix/uClinux), or, in the DICOS case, the address space bound to the program space is mostly ignored. */ /* The program space structure. */ struct program_space { /* Pointer to next in linked list. */ struct program_space *next; /* Unique ID number. */ int num; /* The main executable loaded into this program space.
