vmlinux-gdb.py works only if you are running in Qemu or have a JTAG.
Right ?
I am seeing this issue only on HiFive Unleashed + Microsemi Expansion
board with Fedora Gnome desktop image. I can even boot a Fedora
developer image on same hardware and a busybox image in Unleashed
without any issues. But the issue is not specific to fedora as we see
the same issue in OpenEmbedded disk image as well (HiFive Unleashed +
Microsemi Expansion board).
May be it gets triggerd only if bigger userspace ?
