Yao Qi 31d913c7e4 [testsuite] Remove BASEDIR
BASEDIR was added by https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-10/msg00587.html
in order to handle the different directory layout in serial testing
and parallel testing.  BASEDIR is "gdb.base" in serial testing and is
"outputs/gdb.base/TESTNAME" in parallel testing.  However, it doesn't
work if the GDBserver is in remote target, like this,

$ make check RUNTESTFLAGS='--target_board=remote-gdbserver-on-localhost foll-vfork.exp foll-exec.exp'
FAIL: gdb.base/foll-exec.exp: continue to first exec catchpoint (the program exited)
FAIL: gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp: exec: vfork and exec child follow, to main bp: continue to bp (the program exited)
FAIL: gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp: exec: vfork child follow, finish after tcatch vfork: finish (the program exited)
FAIL: gdb.base/foll-vfork.exp: exec: vfork relations in info inferiors: continue to bp (the program exited)

these tests fail because the executable can't be found.  With target
board native-gdbserver, the program is spawned this way,

 spawn ../gdbserver/gdbserver --once :2347 /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/foll-vfork

so BASEDIR is correct.  However, with target board
remote-gdbserver-on-localhost, the program is spawned

  spawn /usr/bin/ssh -l yao localhost /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/../gdbserver/gdbserver --once :2346 /scratch/yao/gdb/build-git/x86_64/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/foll-vfork

so BASEDIR (either "gdb.base" or "outputs/gdb.base/TESTNAME") makes no
sense.

I had a fix that pass absolute directory to BASEDIR, but it assumes
that directory structure is the same on build and target, and it
doesn't work in remote host case.  The current fix in this patch is
to get the directory from argv[0].  In any case, the program to be
exec'ed is at the same directory with the main program.

Note that these tests do "next N" to let program stop at the desired
line, but it is fragile, because GDB for different targets may skip
function prologue slightly differently, so I replace some of them by
"tbreak on LINE NUMBER and continue".

		   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.
