hai,

We can use wdb or gdb to debug the threads.
You can also use ttrace (tracing facility for multithreaded processes ) call for this.

gdb will be having some problem to debug the threads. Lower versions will hang after the pthread_exit() call from thread funtion.

A guide (simple) thread debugging is at,
