Binutils with MCST patches

Running catch-syscall.exp against a gdbserver that actually supports it, we get: FAIL: gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: continue until exit (the program exited) FAIL: gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: continue until exit (the program exited) FAIL: gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: continue until exit (the program exited) FAIL: gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: continue until exit at catch syscall with unused syscall (mlock) (the program exited) FAIL: gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: continue until exit (the program exited) The fail pattern is: Catchpoint 2 (call to syscall exit_group), 0x000000323d4baa29 in _exit () from /lib64/libc.so.6 (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/catch-syscall.exp: program has called exit_group delete breakpoints Delete all breakpoints? (y or n) y (gdb) info breakpoints No breakpoints or watchpoints. (gdb) break exit Breakpoint 3 at 0x323d438bf0 (gdb) continue Continuing. [Inferior 1 (process 21081) exited normally] That "break exit" + "continue" comes from: > # gdb_continue_to_end: > # The case where the target uses stubs has to be handled specially. If a > # stub is used, we set a breakpoint at exit because we cannot rely on > # exit() behavior of a remote target. > # The native-gdbserver.exp board, used to test against gdbserver in "target remote" mode, triggers that case ($use_gdb_stub is true). So gdb_continue_to_end doesn't work for catch-syscall.exp as here we catch the exit_group and continue from that, expecting to see a real program exit. I was about to post a patch that changes catch-syscall.exp to call a new function that just always does what gdb_continue_to_end does in the !$use_gdb_stub case. But, since GDBserver doesn't really need this, in the end I thought it better to teach the testsuite that there are stubs that know how to report program exits, by adding a new "exit_is_reliable" board variable that then gdb_continue_to_end checks. Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver. gdb/testsuite/ 2013-10-02 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * README (Board Settings): Document "exit_is_reliable". * lib/gdb.exp (gdb_continue_to_end): Check whether the board says running to exit reliably reports program exits. * boards/native-gdbserver.exp: Set exit_is_reliable in the board info. * boards/native-stdio-gdbserver.exp: Likewise. |

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.
