Crash on thread id wrap around On GNU/Linux, if the target reuses the TID of a thread that GDB still has in its list marked as THREAD_EXITED, GDB crashes, like: (gdb) continue Continuing. src/gdb/thread.c:789: internal-error: set_running: Assertion `tp->state != THREAD_EXITED' failed. A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. Quit this debugging session?

It spawns enough threads for the pid number space to wrap around, so could potentially take a while. On my box that's 4 seconds; on gcc110, a PPC box which has max_pid set to 65536, it's over 10 seconds. So I made the test compute how long that would take, and cap the time waited if it would be unreasonably long. Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-04-01 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * linux-thread-db.c (record_thread): Readd the thread to gdb's list if it was marked exited. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2015-04-01 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.threads/tid-reuse.c: New file. * gdb.threads/tid-reuse.exp: New file.
