All the "[Thread FOO] #NN stopped." above are bogus, as well as the
"Cannot remove breakpoints because program is no longer writable.",
which is a consequence.
The problem is that when we intercept a fork event, we should report
the event for the parent, only, and leave the child stopped, but not
report its stop event. GDB later decides whether to follow the parent
or the child. But because handle_extended_wait does not set the
child's last_status.kind to TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED, a
stop_all_threads/unstop_all_lwps sequence (e.g., from trying to access
memory) by mistake ends up queueing a SIGSTOP on the child, resuming
it, and then when that SIGSTOP is intercepted, because the LWP has
last_resume_kind set to resume_stop, gdbserver reports the stop to
GDB, as GDB_SIGNAL_0:

2015-07-30 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-low.c (handle_extended_wait): Set the child's last
reported status to TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED.
The new gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp test exposes one more
problem. When one types "info inferiors" after running the program,
one see's a couple inferior left still, while there should only be
inferior #1 left. E.g.:
(gdb) info inferiors

4 process 8393 /home/pedro/bugs/src/test
2 process 8388 /home/pedro/bugs/src/test
* 1 <null> /home/pedro/bugs/src/test
(gdb) info threads
Calling prune_inferiors() manually at this point (from a top gdb) does
not remove them, because they still have inf->pid != 0 (while they
shouldn't). This suggests that we never mourned those inferiors.
Enabling logs (master + previous patch) we see:

Note the "Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 9508) exited." line.
That's this in wait_lwp:
/* Check if the thread has exited. */
if (WIFEXITED (status) || WIFSIGNALED (status))
{
thread_dead = 1;
if (debug_linux_nat)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog, "WL: %s exited.\n",
target_pid_to_str (lp->ptid));
}
}
That was the leader thread reporting an exit, meaning the whole
process is gone. So the problem is that this code doesn't understand
that an WIFEXITED status of the leader LWP should be reported to
infrun as process exit.

* gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp: Test that "info inferiors"
only shows inferior 1.
When a program forks and another process start threads while gdb is
handling the fork event, newly created threads are left stuck stopped
by gdb, even though gdb presents them as "running", to the user.
This can be seen with the test added by this patch. The test has the
inferior fork a certain number of times and waits for all children to
exit. Each fork child spawns a number of threads that do nothing and
joins them immediately. Normally, the program should run unimpeded
(from the point of view of the user) and exit very quickly. Without
this fix, it doesn't because of some threads left stopped by gdb, so
inferior 1 never exits.
The program triggers when a new clone thread is found while inside the
linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps call in linux-thread-db.c:
linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps ();
ALL_LWPS (lp)
if (ptid_get_pid (lp->ptid) == pid)
thread_from_lwp (lp->ptid);
linux_unstop_all_lwps ();
Within linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps, we reach
linux_handle_extended_wait with the "stopping" parameter set to 1, and
because of that we don't mark the new lwp as resumed. As consequence,
the subsequent resume_stopped_resumed_lwps, called from
linux_unstop_all_lwps, never resumes the new LWP.
There's lots of cruft in linux_handle_extended_wait that no longer
makes sense. On systems with CLONE events support, we don't rely on
libthread_db for thread listing anymore, so the code that preserves
stop_requested and the handling of last_resume_kind is all dead.
So the fix is to remove all that, and simply always mark the new LWP
as resumed, so that resume_stopped_resumed_lwps re-resumes it.

When exiting GDB -- whether it's via the "quit" command, via a SIGTERM,
or otherwise -- we should leave the terminal in the state we acquired
it. To that end, we have to undo any modifications that may have been

and thus enable those tests against gdbserver.

* gdb.base/interrupt.exp: Revert back to checking gdb,noinferiorio

This forces all tests that rely on stdio to be unbuffered, like
interrupt.exp was adjusted in 6f98576f.
To recap, in some scenarios, GDB or GDBserver can be spawned with
input _not_ connected to a tty, and then tests that rely on stdio fail
with timeouts, because the inferior's stdout and stderr streams end up
fully buffered. Calling gdb_unbuffer_output forces output to be
unbuffered.

https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-02/msg00819.html.

Rather than trying to determine where (which spawn id) the inferior
output comes out from, which depends on e.g., remote that supports
file i/o remote protocol extension, vs remote that sends inferior
output through a separate $inferior_spawn_id, vs native debugging,
which sends output through $gdb_spawn_id, vs native debugging with a
test that uses "separate-inferior-tty" (like mi-console.exp does),
always expect inferior output from both $inferior_spawn_id and
$gdb_spawn_id.
mi-console.exp itself already copes with different possible outputs in
a similar way:
# Combine both outputs in a single pattern.

This one needed a larger revamp. The issue is that the "info
breakpoints" test at the bottom of the file is broken on targets that
can do both server-side dprintf, and inferior I/O, because then
neither the breakpoint numbers match nor the "already hit N times"
output.
Address that by making the test restart gdb from scratch when
switching between dprintf styles. Test groups are factored into
procedures, and we now use with_test_prefix. While we're changing
test messages, lowercase a few test messages, and then while at it,
modernize a couple things here and there.

While running some regression tests, I noticed that the two Python

violation of our guidelines:

And also makes things harder for BuildBot. So I hacked both testcases

gdb_compile_pthreads assumes that the build was successful only if there
is no output. These warnings therefore make gdb_compile_pthreads think
that the build failed, and the test doesn't run.

I noticed there was an unexpected pass in mi-watch.exp when running on
x86_64. Doing a bit of archeology shows that the xfail was added by
4a543da. This particular test failed on the MIPS architecture, which
the original contributor was working with. Here is the thread:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2007-09/msg00151.html
Looking at the latest buildbot results for MIPS, it seems that it's also
an unexpected pass on that architecture. Therefore, I see no reason to
leave the xfail in place.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.mi/mi-watch.exp (test_watchpoint_triggering): Remove xfail.
GDB currently does not promptly quit after receiving a SIGTERM while no
proper target is active. This is because in handle_sigterm we currently
look at target_can_async_p to determine whether to asynchronously quit
GDB using an async signal handler or to asynchronously quit using the
quit flag. However, target_can_async_p is always false under the dummy
target, so under this target we always use the quit flag and not the
async signal handler to signal that GDB should quit. So GDB won't quit
until a code path that checks the quit flag is executed.
To fix this issue, this patch makes the SIGTERM handler no longer
inspect target_can_async_p, and instead makes the handler
unconditionally set the quit flag _and_ mark the corresponding async
signal handler, so that if the target is async (or if it's the dummy
target) then we will likely quit through the async signal handler, and
if it's not async then we will likely quit through the quit flag. This
redundant approach is similar to how we handle SIGINT.

target_can_async_p. Always set the quit flag and always mark

* Makefile.in (REMOTE_EXAMPLES): Remove it.
This reverts commit b558ff043d.
This reverts commit 4a11f20659.
The initial import commit failed to retain local changes made to
readline's configure.in (and the commit message erroneously stated that
there were no local changes that needed to be reapplied). Also the
import caused a couple of build errors and a scattering of testsuite
regressions throughout many arches. It's probably better to start over
with this import, hopefully more carefully next time.
Regressions, e.g.,

This patch syncs our upstream copy of readline from version 6.2 to the
latest version, 7.0 alpha (released July 10 2015).
I essentially copied what was done the last time readline was synced,
when Jan updated to readline 6.2 in 2011:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-05/msg00003.html
Procedure:
1. I extracted the readline-7.0-alpha tarball on top of readline/.
2. I deleted all the new files under doc/ that were deliberately omitted
before.
3. I regenerated readline/configure and readline/examples/rlfe/configure
using autoconf 2.64. No other configure files need regenerating.
4. I updated the function gdb_printable_part in completer.c with a
trivial change made to the readline function it is based off of,
printable_part in readline/complete.c. There is more work to be done in
completer.c to sync it with readline/complete.c, but it is non-trivial
and should probably be done separately anyway.
Local patches that had to be reapplied:
None. readline 7.0 alpha contains all of our local readline
patches.
New files in readline/:
colors.{c,h}
examples/{hist_erasedups,hist_purgecmd,rl-callbacktest,rlbasic}.c
parse-colors.{c,h}
readline.pc.in
configure.ac
Deleted files in readline/:
configure.in
Regressions:
After the sync there is one testsuite regression, the test
"signal SIGINT" in gdb.gdb/selftest.exp which now FAILs. Previously,
the readline 6.2 SIGINT handler would temporarily reinstall the
underlying application's SIGINT handler and immediately re-raise SIGINT
so that the orginal handler gets invoked. But now (since readline 6.3)
its SIGINT handler does not re-raise SIGINT or directly invoke the
original handler; it now sets a flag marking that SIGINT was raised, and
waits until readline explicitly has control to call the application's
SIGINT handler. Anyway, because SIGINT is no longer re-raised from
within readline's SIGINT handler, doing "signal SIGINT" with a stopped
inferior gdb process will no longer resume and then immediately stop the
process (since there is no 2nd SIGINT to immediately catch). Instead,
the inferior gdb process will now just print "Quit" and continue to run.
So with this commit, this particular test case is adjusted to reflect
this change in behavior (we now have to send a 2nd SIGINT manually to
stop it).
Aside from this one testsuite regression, I personally noticed no
regression in user-visible behavior. Though I only tested on x86_64
and on i686 Debian Stretch.
Getting this kind of change in at the start of the GDB 7.11 development
cycle will allow us to get a lot of passive testing from developers and
from bleeding-edge users.
readline/ChangeLog.gdb:
Import readline 7.0 alpha
* configure: Regenerate.
* examples/rlfe/configure: Regenerate.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* completer.c (gdb_printable_part): Sync with readline function
it is based off of.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.gdb/selftest.exp (test_with_self): Update test to now
expect the GDB inferior to no longer immediately stop after
being resumed with "signal SIGINT".
I think I lost a patch along the way, because I remember needing
something like this, but the reverted patch isn't the right way to
do this. Removing ...
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.perf/lib/perftest/measure.py (MeasurementCpuTime::stop): Print
result.
(MeasurementWallTime::stop): Ditto.
(MeasurementVmSizeTime::stop): Ditto.
These testcases are mocks of real programs.
GDB doesn't care what the programs do, they just have to look
and/or behave like the real program.
These testcases exercise gdb when debugging really large programs.
E.g., gmonster-1 has 10,000 CUs, and gmonster-2 has 1000 shared libs
(which is actually a little small, 5000 would be more accurate).
