Tom de Vries 2016d3e60f [gdb/testsuite] Reduce errors after gdb exit in default_gdb_start
When running test-case gdb.base/readnever.exp with target board readnow, and
without commit 96038148d0e "[gdb/testsuite] Skip gdb.base/readnever.exp with
target board readnow", we run into a bunch of errors, starting with:
...
spawn gdb -nw -nx -data-directory data-directory -ex set sysroot -readnow \
  --readnever^M
gdb: '--readnow' and '--readnever' cannot be specified simultaneously^M
ERROR: : spawn id exp9 not open
    while executing
"expect {
-i exp9 -timeout 10
        -re "$gdb_prompt $" {
            verbose "Setting height to 0." 2
        }
...

The illegal combination of --readnow and --readnever causes gdb to start,
print an error message and exit.  There's a gdb_expect in default_gdb_start
that is supposed to detect the initial gdb prompt and handle related problems,
but since there's no eof case it succeeds, and default_gdb_start continues as
if the gdb prompt had been detected, causing the error above.

Fix this by adding an eof case to the gdb_expect, such that we have the more
accurate:
...
ERROR: (eof) GDB never initialized.
...

Further errors are triggered in clean_restart, because we're not testing for
gdb_start success.  Fix this by detecting gdb_start failure, and bailing out.

Finally, we're running into further errors in gdb.base/readnever.exp because
we're not testing for clean_restart success.  Fix this by making clean_restart
return -1 upon error, and testing for this.

Tested on x86_64-linux.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:

2020-04-24  Tom de Vries  <tdevries@suse.de>

	* lib/gdb.exp (default_gdb_start): Handle eof.
	(clean_restart): Detect and handle gdb_start failure.  Return -1 upon
	failure.
	* gdb.base/readnever.exp: Handle clean_restart failure.

		   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

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
