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/ 2014-07-14 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> PR gdb/17072 * top.c: Include "inf-loop.h".

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.
