您只需要使用可执行文件调用gdb（无论是您的文件还是第三方文件都没有关系）。这是一个示例，其中我调试 ls 命令并在（共享） c库中
设置断点。此示例使用了gdb 6.8，它支持延迟（挂起）断点，这使此操作变得容易：

Breakpoint 1, 0x00007f98d2264bb0 in write () from /lib/libc.so.6
(gdb)

如您所见，gdb自动管理可执行文件使用的所有线程。您不必为那里的线程做任何特殊的事情。断点将在任何线程中工作。

或者，如果要将调试器附加到已经运行的应用程序（我在此处以 tail -f / tmp / ttt 为例）：

ps ux | grep tail
