Descripción
We are hitting a rare deadlock in production that can't be reproduced using debug images.
Only way to debug it is to attach to the production image as the problem happens.
Problem is that production are based on the -slim images.
apt install gdb and python3-dbg is not enough because the python running is built from source and not aligned with what is available in apt.
I've tried to start the corresponding non-slim image but their binaries don't seem to align enough to make gdb happy:
Start python inside -slim image
➡️ My end goal is to run gdb py-bt on this process:
docker run -ti python:3.11-slim-bookworm python3 -c "import time; time.sleep(1000)"
Inside this image there is no chance to debug at all due to missing gdb and debug symbols. This is expected.
Build a debugger image from the corresponding non-slim image.
FROM python:3.11-bookworm
RUN --mount=type=cache,target=/var/cache/apt --mount=type=cache,target=/var/lib/apt \
apt update -y && \
apt install -y gdb
docker build -t mydebugpython .
Use the newly built debug image to attach into the first running container
Find the container id and use that to attach to the same pid-namespace.
docker run \
--cap-add SYS_PTRACE \
--pid container:15aab7ea5f57 \
--privileged \
-ti \
--entrypoint bash docker.io/library/mydebugpython

Traceback (most recent call first):

So it seems like the difference of slim and non-slim isn't only the presence of debug symbols or not, but also the binary is built differently?
Is this possible to solve somehow? My knowledge of how python is built and how to operate gdb are only moderate.

Línea de trabajo
No se ha indicado ningún archivo del repositorio ni ninguna prueba. Empieza comparando las compilaciones de imagen python:3.11-slim-bookworm y python:3.11-bookworm, luego reproduce los comandos de attach de gdb e inspecciona la discrepancia entre el ejecutable y los símbolos de depuración. Se considera terminado cuando se haya establecido si py-bt puede funcionar con la imagen slim y se haya documentado un enfoque de depuración reproducible o una limitación.
