Gdbserver support code uses the global timeout value to determine when to stop waiting for a gdbserver process being started to respond before continuing anyway. This timeout is usually as low as 10s and may not be enough in this context, for example on the first run where the filesystem cache is cold, even if it is elsewhere. E.g. I observe this reliably with gdbserver started the first time in QEMU running in the system emulation mode: (gdb) file .../gdb.base/advance Reading symbols from .../gdb.base/advance...done. (gdb) delete breakpoints (gdb) info breakpoints No breakpoints or watchpoints. (gdb) break main Breakpoint 1 at 0x87f8: file .../gdb.base/advance.c, line 41. (gdb) set remotetimeout 15 (gdb) kill The program is not being run. (gdb) [...] .../bin/gdbserver --once :6014 advance target remote localhost:6014 Remote debugging using localhost:6014 Remote communication error. Target disconnected.: Connection reset by peer. (gdb) continue The program is not being run. (gdb) Process advance created; pid = 999 Listening on port 6014 FAIL: gdb.base/advance.exp: Can't run to main -- notice how the test harness proceeded with the `target remote ...' command even though gdbserver hasn't completed its startup yet. A while later when it's finally ready it's too late already. I checked the timing here and it takes gdbserver roughly 25 seconds to start in this scenario. Subsequent gdbserver starts in the same test run take less time and usually complete within 10 seconds although occasionally `target remote ...' precedes the corresponding `Listening on port...' message again. Therefore I have fixed this problem by setting an explicit timeout to 120s on the expect call in question. If this turns out too arbitrary sometime, then perhaps a separate `gdbserver_timeout' setting might be due. * lib/gdbserver-support.exp (gdbserver_start): Set timeout to 120 on waiting for the TCP socket to open. |

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
