I happen to see that comments to start_step_over isn't in sync with
code, so this patch is to update the comments.
gdb/gdbserver:
2016-03-03 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* linux-low.c: Update comments to start_step_over.
This patch adds a new test for stepping over clone syscall.
2016-03-03 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp (step_over_syscall): Kfail.
Invoke step_over_syscall "clone" and break_cond_on_syscall
"clone".
* gdb.base/step-over-clone.c: New file.
disp-step-syscall.exp is extended for stepping over syscall instruction
in different cases, with or without displaced stepping, and stepping
over by GDBserver.
This patch rename disp-step-syscall.exp to step-over-syscall.exp to
reflect this.
gdb/testsuite:
2016-03-03 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* gdb.base/disp-step-fork.c: Rename to ...
* gdb.base/step-over-fork.c: ... it. New file.
* gdb.base/disp-step-vfork.c: Rename to ...
* gdb.base/step-over-vfork.c: ... it. New file.
* gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: Rename to ...
* gdb.base/step-over-syscall.exp: ... it. New file.
(disp_step_cross_syscall): Rename to ...
(step_over_syscall): ... it.
We can also extend disp-step-syscall.exp to test GDBserver step over
breakpoint on syscall instruction. That is, we set a breakpoint
with a false condition on syscall instruction, so that GDBserver will
step over it.
This test triggers a GDBserver internal error, which can be fixed by
this series.

2016-03-03 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org>
* gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp (break_cond_on_syscall): New.
If target supports condition evaluation on target, invoke
break_cond_on_syscall for fork and vfork.
disp-step-syscall.exp was added to test displaced stepping over syscall
instructions, in which we set breakpoint on syscall instruction, and
step over it. In fact, we can extend the test to non-displaced-stepping
case. This patch wraps the test with displaced stepping on and off.
Note that the indentation and format isn't adjusted here to make this
patch easy to read. The following patch will fix the format separately.

* gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: Don't invoke

(disp_step_cross_syscall): Test with displaced stepping off and
on if supported.
This patch moves some code out of disp_step_cross_syscall to a new proc
check_pc_after_cross_syscall and setup. Procedure setup is to start a
fresh GDB and compute the syscall instruction address.

when GDBserver steps over a thread, other threads have been suspended,
the "stepping" thread may create new thread, but GDBserver doesn't set
it suspend count to 1. When GDBserver unsuspend threads, the child's
suspend count goes to -1, and the assert is triggered. In fact, GDBserver
has already taken care of suspend count of new thread when GDBserver is
suspending all threads except the one GDBserver wants to step over by
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-07/msg00946.html
+ /* If we're suspending all threads, leave this one suspended
+ too. */
+ if (stopping_threads == STOPPING_AND_SUSPENDING_THREADS)
+ {
+ if (debug_threads)
+ debug_printf ("HEW: leaving child suspended\n");
+ child_lwp->suspended = 1;
+ }
but that is not enough, because new thread is still can be spawned in
the thread which is being stepped over. This patch extends the
condition that GDBserver set child's suspend count to one if it is
suspending threads or stepping over the thread.

Given two or more modules that import each other's scope, the current symbol
lookup routines would go round in circles looking through each import from
each module, possibly checking the same module twice or more until all possible
paths are marked as "searched".

symbols that do exist, and infinite recursion when they don't.
