The fix that went into GDBserver is also needed on the GDB side.
Although most compilers follow right-to-left evaluation order, the
order of evaluation of a function call's arguments is really
unspecified. target_pid_to_str may well clobber errno when we get to

When the target is resumed in the foreground, we put the inferior's
terminal settings into effect, and remove stdin from the event loop.
When the target stops, we put GDB's terminal settings into effect
again, and re-register stdin in the event loop, ready for user input.
The former is done by target_terminal_inferior, and the latter by
target_terminal_ours.
There's an intermediate -- target_terminal_ours_for_output -- that is
called when printing output related to target events, and we don't
know yet whether we'll stop the program. That puts our terminal
settings into effect, enough to get proper results from our output,
but leaves input wired into the inferior.
If such output paginates, then we need the full target_terminal_ours
in order for the user to be able to provide input to answer the
pagination query.
The test in this commit hangs in async-capable targets without the fix
(as the user/test can't answer the pagination query). It doesn't hang
on sync targets because on those we don't unregister stdin from the
event loop while the target is running (because we block in
target_wait instead of in the event loop in that case).

If an error is thrown while handling a target event (within
fetch_inferior_event), and, the interpreter is not async (but the
target is), then GDB prints the prompt twice.
One way to see that in action is throw a QUIT while in a pagination
prompt issued from within fetch_inferior_event (or one of its
callees). E.g. from the test:
---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---
^CQuit
(gdb) (gdb) p 1
^^^^^^^^^^^
$1 = 1
(gdb)
The issue is that inferior_event_handler swallows errors and notifies
the observers (the interpreters) about the command error, even if the
interpreter is forced sync while we're handling a nested event loop
(for execute_command). The observers print a prompt, and then when we
get back to the top event loop, we print another (in
start_event_loop).
I see no reason the error should be swallowed here. Just cancel the
execution related bits and let the error propagate to the top level
(start_event_loop), which re-enables stdin and notifies observers.

If a pagination prompt triggers while the target is running, and the
target exits before the user responded to the pagination query, this
happens:
Starting program: foo
---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---No unwaited-for children left.
Couldn't get registers: No such process.
Couldn't get registers: No such process.
Couldn't get registers: No such process.
(gdb) Couldn't get registers: No such process.
(gdb)
To reiterate, the user hasn't replied to the pagination prompt above.
A pagination query nests an event loop (in gdb_readline_wrapper). In
async mode, in addition to stdin and signal handlers, we'll have the
target also installed in the event loop still. So if the target
reports an event, that wakes up the nested event loop, which calls
into fetch_inferior_event etc. to handle the event which generates
further output, all while we should be waiting for pagination
confirmation...
(TBC, any target event that generates output ends up spuriously waking
up the pagination, though exits seem to be the worse kind.)
I've played with a couple different approaches to fixing this, while
at the same time trying to avoid being invasive. Both revolve around
not listening to target events while in a pagination prompt (doing
anything else I think would be a much bigger change).
The approach taken just removes the target from the event loop while
within gdb_readline_wrapper. The other approach used gdb_select
directly, with only input_fd installed, but that had the issue that it
didn't handle the async signal handlers, and turned out to be a bit
more code than the first version.

gdb_readline_wrapper_line removes the handler after a line is
processed. Usually, we'll end up re-displaying the prompt, and that
reinstalls the handler. But if the output is coming out of handling
a stop event, we don't re-display the prompt, and nothing restores the
handler. So the next input wakes up the event loop and calls into
readline, which aborts.
We should do better with the prompt handling while the target is
running (I think we should coordinate with readline, and
hide/redisplay it around output), but that's a more invasive change
better done post 7.8, so this patch is conservative and just
reinstalls the handler as soon as we're out of the readline line
callback.

Usually, if an error propagates all the way to the top level, we'll
re-enable stdin, in case the command that was running was a
synchronous command. That's done in the event loop's actual loop
(event-loop.c:start_event_loop). However, if a foreground execution
command is run before the event loop starts and throws, nothing is
presently reenabling stdin, which leaves sync_execution set.
When we do start the event loop, because sync_execution is still
(mistakenly) set, display_gdb_prompt removes the readline input
callback, even though stdin is registered in the event loop. Any
input from here on results in readline aborting.
Such commands are run through catch_command_errors,
catch_command_errors_const, so add the tweak there.

The "call" and "print" commands presently always run synchronously, in
the foreground, but GDB currently forgets to put the inferior's
terminal settings into effect while running them, on async-capable
targets, resulting in:
(gdb) print func ()
hello world
Program received signal SIGTTOU, Stopped (tty output).
0x000000373bceb8d0 in __libc_tcdrain (fd=1) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tcdrain.c:29
29 return INLINE_SYSCALL (ioctl, 3, fd, TCSBRK, 1);
The program being debugged was signaled while in a function called from GDB.
GDB remains in the frame where the signal was received.
To change this behavior use "set unwindonsignal on".
Evaluation of the expression containing the function
(func) will be abandoned.
When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop.
(gdb)
That's because target_terminal_inferior skips actually doing anything
if running in the background, and, nothing is setting sync_execution
while running infcalls:
void
target_terminal_inferior (void)
{
/* A background resume (``run&'') should leave GDB in control of the
terminal. Use target_can_async_p, not target_is_async_p, since at
this point the target is not async yet. However, if sync_execution
is not set, we know it will become async prior to resume. */
if (target_can_async_p () && !sync_execution)
return;
This would best be all cleaned up by making GDB not even call
target_terminal_inferior and try to pass the terminal to the inferior
if running in the background, but that's a more invasive fix that is
better done post-7.8.
This was originally caught by a patch later in this series that makes
catch_command_errors use exception_print instead of
print_any_exception. Note that print_flush calls serial_drain_output
while print_any_exception doesnt't have that bit. And,
gdb.gdb/python-selftest.exp does:
gdb_test "call catch_command_errors(execute_command, \"python print 5\", 0, RETURN_MASK_ALL)" \
"Python not initialized.* = 0"
which without this fix results in SIGTTOU...

Right now we provide a board info entry, `gdb_init_command', that allows
one to send a single command to GDB before the program to be debugged is
started. This is useful e.g. for slow remote targets to change the
default "remotetimeout" setting. Occasionally I found a need to send
multiple commands instead, however this cannot be achieved with
`gdb_init_command'.
This change therefore extends the mechanism by adding a TCL list of GDB
commands to send, via a board info entry called `gdb_init_commands'.
There is no limit as to the number of commands put there. The old

We see the following fails on arm-none-eabi target,
print (void*)v_signed_char^M
$190 = (void *) 0x0 <_ftext>^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/exprs.exp: print (void*)v_signed_char (print

GDB behaves correctly but the test assumes there is no symbol on
address 0x0. This patch is set print symbol off, so that tests below
can match the address only.

The problem is that linux_wait_for_event deletes lwps that have exited
(even those not passed in as lwps of interest), while the lwp/thread
list is being walked on with find_inferior. find_inferior can handle
the current iterated inferior being deleted, but not others.
When killing lwps, we don't really care about any of the pending
status handling of linux_wait_for_event. We can just waitpid the lwps
directly, which is also what GDB does (see
linux-nat.c:kill_wait_callback). This way the lwps are not deleted
while we're walking the list. They'll be deleted by linux_mourn
afterwards.
This crash triggers several times when running the testsuite against
GDBserver with the native-gdbserver board (target remote), but as GDB
can't distinguish between GDBserver crashing and "kill" being
sucessful, as in both cases the connection is closed (the 'k' packet
doesn't require a reply), and the inferior is gone, that results in no
FAIL.
The patch adds a generic test that catches the issue with
extended-remote mode (and works fine with native testing too). Here's
how it fails with the native-extended-gdbserver board without the fix:

When debugging a remote bare-metal target with "target
extended-remote" + attach, GDB won't send a qSymbol packet to initiate
symbol lookup. This happens because all the previous places in which
GDB might have done this are guarded by conditions that don't hold in
the said scenario: there are no shared libraries, no vsyscall page and
the binary file didn't change in the time passed between the "file"
and the "attach" commands.
To solve this problem remote_check_symbols is called in the
target_post_attach hook.

is_inconsistent_linkonce_section makes an assumption that section name
that starts with ".gnu.linkonce.prop." has one more dot in its suffix.
However gas generates such section name by insertion of "prop." right
after ".gnu.linkonce." part of the name of the original section. So, for
section named ".gnu.linkonce.this_module" corresponding property section
name does not satisfy the assumption. Such section names are common in
linux modules. This bug was exposed by the patch "a35d5e8 Fix alignment
for the first section frag on xtensa", that makes gas produce property
section for each section that has ".align" directive in it.
Use suffix that immediately follows ".gnu.linkonce.prop." when there are
no more dots following it.

At some point the arm-elf output became the same as arm-eabi. Remove
the special handling of arm-elf.

With this change all gas and most ld tests pass when configured for
arm-linux. It doesn't look like these configurations have been
tested in a long time but this attempts to stem the bit-rot slightly.
