RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Keith Seitz 2020-06-30 18:12:49 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1850710 +++

Description of problem:

When I attempt to single-step into JIT-compiled code on S390x,
my gdb process gets stopped and backgrounded as soon as I execute
the basr instruction that called the JIT-compiled function.
I can fg the process, at which point gdb reports "PC not saved."
If I stepi again, exactly the same thing happens.

Each time I fg the process, I can see the pc incrementing, and
instruction effects (e.g. changes to contents of general registers)
have clearly taken place.  The command "disp/i $pc" works as
expected.  The "disassemble" command works fine, e.g.
disassemble $pc, $pc+10.

*** This bug tracks the terminal issues reported in the original bug. ***
