Proton Debugging Tips

For loading dev builds of games onto a Steam Deck see https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/steamdeck/loadgames

Debug Proton Builds

See README.md#debugging.

Attaching A Debugger

Running GDB and attaching to a running .exe works out of the box:

$ ps | grep Game
2263566 ?        tsl    0:09 Z:\home\ivyl\.local\share\Steam\steamapps\common\Game\Game.exe

$ gdb
GNU gdb (GDB) 14.1
...
(gdb) attach 2263566
Attaching to process 2263566
[New LWP 2263569]
...
0x000075dce0cd788d in ?? ()

You can use source wine's gdbinit to make load-symbol-files command available that uses /proc/$pid/maps to load the symbols:

(gdb) source ~/src/proton/wine/tools/gdbinit.py

(gdb) load-symbol-files
loading symbols for /home/ivyl/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton - Experimental/files/lib64/wine/x86_64-windows/kernelbase.dll
...

Attaching Before The Program Starts

Launch the software with PROTON_WAIT_ATTACH=1 %command% set as the launch command in game's properties. Our steam.exe shim will then wait for debugger and only then exec the proper executable.

Make sure that you follow child processes:

set follow-fork-mode child

Getting Shell Inside Of The Steam Runtime

Set your launch options to: PROTON_LOG=1 STEAM_COMPAT_LAUNCHER_SERVICE=proton %command%

Then in steam-$GAMEID.log you should see the following:

Starting program with command-launcher service.

To run commands in the per-app container, use a command like:

/home/ivyl/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/pressure-vessel/bin/steam-runtime-launch-client \
	--bus-name=:1.307 \
	--directory='' \
	-- \
	bash

After invoking it you end up in a shell with the environment variables, including WINEPREFIX are set and you can invoke wine directly, e.g.:

[ivyl@crabcraft x64]$ wine winedbg
Wine-dbg> info process
 pid      threads  executable (all id:s are in hex)
