Thank you for reading through them. :-)
The failed call (XaceHook) is:
-----------
/*
* Security creation/labeling check
*/
i = XaceHook(XACE_RESOURCE_ACCESS, clients[client], mid, RT_COLORMAP,
pmap, RT_NONE, NULL, DixCreateAccess);
if (i != Success) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s : 9\n", __func__);
FreeResource(mid, RT_NONE);
return i;
}
-----------
I got tired of lots of printfs. That is why I would like the help of
gdbserver.
However, with -O2 turned on, it is rather difficult to step through the code,
and without -O2, it will not go into the error path...
Are there any known alignment tricks that I should apply for ARM targets?
Thanks.
Brian
