Mac安装GDB

ios:kldsvc shinson$ gdb ./bin/kldserver
-bash: gdb: command not found.

于是使用mac上的包管理工具Homebrew搜索一下gdb：

ios:kldsvc shinson$ brew search gdb
==> Searching local taps...
gdbm ✔          cgdb            gdb             i386-elf-gdb    pgdbf
==> Searching taps on GitHub...
homebrew/linuxbrew-core/gdb              homebrew/linuxbrew-core/i386-elf-gdb
==> Searching blacklisted, migrated and deleted formulae...

能搜索到，于是安装gdb，但报访问权限问题:

ios:kldsvc shinson$ brew install gdb
touch: /usr/local/Homebrew/.git/FETCH_HEAD: Permission denied
Updating Homebrew...

于是ctrl+c结束更新Homebrew，使用chown获取访问权限，本想直接获取/usr/local的权限，但mac很注重安全，获取失败，只能尝试获取/usr/local/Homebrew的权限，结果成功了：

ios:kldsvc shinson$ sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local
chown: /usr/local: Operation not permitted
ios:kldsvc shinson$ sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/Homebrew/
ios:kldsvc shinson$ 

然后开心的重新尝试安装gdb，结果还自动更新了Homebrew，但提示我的Xcode版本太低:

ios:kldsvc shinson$ brew install gdb
Updating Homebrew...
==> Auto-updated Homebrew!
Updated 2 taps (caskroom/cask, ethereum/ethereum).
==> Updated Formulae
ethereum/ethereum/cpp-ethereum           ethereum/ethereum/solidity
ethereum/ethereum/ethereum

Error: Your Xcode (1) is too outdated.
Please update to Xcode 9.1 (or delete it).
Xcode can be updated from
  https://developer.apple.com/download/more/

吓得我赶紧查看一下Xcode的版本：

ios:kldsvc shinson$ xcodebuild -version
Xcode 10.1
Build version 10B61

结果我的Xcode版本是比较新的，所以只能重置一下Homebrew：

ios:kldsvc shinson$ brew update-reset

Homebrew重置成功后，再次尝试安装gdb，终于安装成功了：

==> Caveats
gdb requires special privileges to access Mach ports.
You will need to codesign the binary. For instructions, see:

  https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/BuildingOnDarwin

On 10.12 (Sierra) or later with SIP, you need to run this:

  echo "set startup-with-shell off" >> ~/.gdbinit

查看一下gdb的版本：

ios:kldsvc shinson$ gdb -version

然后回到最开始的目的，检查程序是否有调试信息，-q 表示启动gdb时不显示那一长段包含版本、版权等提示信息。结果中的 (no debugging symbols found) 表示不包含调试信息，表示需要在编译程序时加上 -g 选项。最后输入 q 并 回车 退出gdb：

ios:kldsvc shinson$ gdb ./bin/kdlserver
Reading symbols from ./write...(no debugging symbols found)...done.
