[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 10190 bytes --]

emacs runs on Mac with tramp . And I have a test project on a remote
machine (dev-sever): /home/xxx/project/test_gdb/. It has a simple file:
test.c. test.c is compiled by gcc with -O0 -g to test_bin.

test.c:
1 int foo(int a, int b) {
2  int c = a + b;
3  return c;
4 }
5
6 int main(void) {
7  return foo(3, 4);
8 }

Steps:
1. Open test.c on dev-server in emacs
2. run 'M-x gdb'  gdb -i=mi test_bin and open gdb-many-window mode.
3. In *gud-test* buffer, run: break 7
4. Run: run and gdb stop at line 7
5. Step into line 7

But the cursor of source buffer will not move at all. And then emacs become
irresponsive after running several step commands. I press Ctrl-G several
times. Then it returns error: json-read-string: Bad string format: "doesn't
start with `\"'!"

Here is the backtrace for above error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (json-string-format "doesn't start with
`\"'!")

(This bug report unfortunately got no response at the time.)

I vaguely remember seeing a bug report about gdb and Tramp, so this may
or may not have been fixed in the years since this was reported.  Are
you still seeing this problem in Emacs 28?

Bug#44151. The Tramp part is solved in Emacs' master branch, but there's
still something left for the gdb part. I've merged both bugs.

(Unfortunately, I'm not a gdb-mi.el expert).

Best regards, Michael.

Attached are patches to fix this in Emacs 27 and 28; they're
essentially the same, but with slightly different contexts around the
diff. I'm not sure if this is wanted for Emacs 27, but it's a small
bugfix, and combined with my patch in bug#39408 (and the GNU ELPA
version of Tramp to fix bug#44151), M-x gdb should work correctly for
Tramp. For Emacs 28, this is the only outstanding issue (that I know
of) preventing M-x gdb from working with Tramp.

The problem here was that `gud-last-frame', set in
`gdb-frame-handler', expects a local file path, so the full Tramp path
was confusing it.

(Note: I have a couple of patches in Tramp already that put me at the
limit for patches without copyright assignment paperwork. However,
I've already requested the form.)

Pushed to both the emacs-27 and master branch. Closing the bug.

I don't know whether there will be an Emacs 27.3, but it doesn't hurt to
push the fix, I believe.

Best regards, Michael.
