Fix PR gdb/18653: gdb disturbs inferior's inherited signal dispositions gdb's (or gdbserver's) own signal handling should not interfere with the signal dispositions their spawned children inherit. However, it currently does. For example, some paths in gdb cause SIGPIPE to be set to SIG_IGN, and as consequence, the child starts with SIGPIPE to set to SIG_IGN too, even though gdb was started with SIGPIPE set to SIG_DFL. This is because the exec family of functions does not reset the signal disposition of signals that are set to SIG_IGN: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/execve.html Signals set to the default action (SIG_DFL) in the calling process image are set to the default action in the new process image. Signals set to be ignored (SIG_IGN) by the calling process image are set to be ignored by the new process image. Signals set to be caught by the calling process image are set to the default action in the new process image (see <signal.h>). And neither does it reset signal masks or flags. In order to be transparent, when spawning new child processes to debug (with "run", etc.), reset signal actions and mask back to what was originally inherited from gdb/gdbserver's parent, just before execing the target program to debug. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-08-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> PR gdb/18653 * Makefile.in (SFILES): Add common/signals-state-save-restore.c.

Add RAII class for blocking gdb signals This adds configury support and an RAII class that can be used to temporarily block signals that are used by gdb. (This class is not used in this patch, but it split out for easier review.) The idea of this patch is that these signals should only be delivered to the main thread. So, when creating a background thread, they are temporarily blocked; the blocked state is inherited by the new thread. The sigprocmask man page says: The use of sigprocmask() is unspecified in a multithreaded process; see pthread_sigmask(3). This patch changes gdb to use pthread_sigmask when appropriate, by introducing a convenience define. I've updated gdbserver as well, because I had to touch gdbsupport, and because the threading patches will make it link against the thread library. I chose not to touch the NTO code, because I don't know anything about that platform and because I cannot test it. Finally, this modifies an existing spot in the Guile layer to use the new facility. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdbsupport/signals-state-save-restore.c (original_signal_mask): Remove comment.

Add RAII class for blocking gdb signals This adds configury support and an RAII class that can be used to temporarily block signals that are used by gdb. (This class is not used in this patch, but it split out for easier review.) The idea of this patch is that these signals should only be delivered to the main thread. So, when creating a background thread, they are temporarily blocked; the blocked state is inherited by the new thread. The sigprocmask man page says: The use of sigprocmask() is unspecified in a multithreaded process; see pthread_sigmask(3). This patch changes gdb to use pthread_sigmask when appropriate, by introducing a convenience define. I've updated gdbserver as well, because I had to touch gdbsupport, and because the threading patches will make it link against the thread library. I chose not to touch the NTO code, because I don't know anything about that platform and because I cannot test it. Finally, this modifies an existing spot in the Guile layer to use the new facility. gdb/ChangeLog 2019-11-26 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * gdbsupport/signals-state-save-restore.c (original_signal_mask): Remove comment.

Fix PR gdb/18653: gdb disturbs inferior's inherited signal dispositions gdb's (or gdbserver's) own signal handling should not interfere with the signal dispositions their spawned children inherit. However, it currently does. For example, some paths in gdb cause SIGPIPE to be set to SIG_IGN, and as consequence, the child starts with SIGPIPE to set to SIG_IGN too, even though gdb was started with SIGPIPE set to SIG_DFL. This is because the exec family of functions does not reset the signal disposition of signals that are set to SIG_IGN: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/execve.html Signals set to the default action (SIG_DFL) in the calling process image are set to the default action in the new process image. Signals set to be ignored (SIG_IGN) by the calling process image are set to be ignored by the new process image. Signals set to be caught by the calling process image are set to the default action in the new process image (see <signal.h>). And neither does it reset signal masks or flags. In order to be transparent, when spawning new child processes to debug (with "run", etc.), reset signal actions and mask back to what was originally inherited from gdb/gdbserver's parent, just before execing the target program to debug. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-08-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> PR gdb/18653 * Makefile.in (SFILES): Add common/signals-state-save-restore.c.
