Is there any chance you have pulled in the TscTimerLib from the PerformancePkg
into the X64 part of your build? If you have, then you need to set the
following PCD to 0xB000 too. Its default value is 0x400.

Ok, while qemu emulation is not stopped, periodic samples of 0xb008 (using the
qemu cmd "i/w 0xb008") do indeed return running timer-like values.
AcpiTimerLibConstructor() runs in 32bit mode and uses 0xb0nn values, but at the
point of my hang the cpu is in 64bit mode and is reading from 0x0408 instead of
0xb008. Disassembly shows that 0x0408 is a constant compiled into the source:
0x3e5576e2: push %rbp
0x3e5576e3: mov %rsp,%rbp
0x3e5576e6: sub $0x20,%rsp
0x3e5576ea: mov $0x408,%ecx
0x3e5576ef: movabs $0x3e5579fa,%rax
0x3e5576f9: callq *%rax
0x3e5576fb: leaveq
0x3e5576fc: retq
(this next part of the conversation will move to the new gdb symbol debug
thread - but I wanted Laszlo to see this last comment/question)
You need the debug symbols for the qemu binary. Your distro may provide them in
a separate package, or not at all. In the latter case you should rebuild from
source (with --enable-debug), or rebuild your distro's package with debug
symbols enabled.
gdb needs qemu *symbols* in order for breakpoints to work? I thought the
gdbserver built into qemu would simply provide the proper API over the remote
link. I can however see why a released version of qemu would not have
--enable-debug turned on (disabling breakpointing).
