Pedro Alves 2ab76a181f Fix attaching in non-stop mode (PR gdb/27055)
Attaching in non-stop mode currently misbehaves, like so:

 (gdb) attach 1244450
 Attaching to process 1244450
 [New LWP 1244453]
 [New LWP 1244454]

 [New LWP 1244461]

 [New LWP 1244463]
 No unwaited-for children left.

At this point, GDB's stopped/running thread state is out of sync with
the inferior:

*nothing*

The problem is that attaching installs an inferior continuation,
called when the target reports the initial attach stop, here, in
inf-loop.c:inferior_event_handler:

      /* Do all continuations associated with the whole inferior (not
	 a particular thread).  */
      if (inferior_ptid != null_ptid)
	do_all_inferior_continuations (0);

However, currently in non-stop mode, inferior_ptid is still null_ptid
when we get here.

If you try to do "set debug infrun 1" to debug the problem, however,
then the attach completes correctly, with GDB reporting a stop for
each thread.

The bug is that we're missing a switch_to_thread/context_switch call
when handling the initial stop, here:

  if (stop_soon == STOP_QUIETLY_NO_SIGSTOP
      && (ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal == GDB_SIGNAL_STOP
	  || ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal == GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
	  || ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal == GDB_SIGNAL_0))
    {
      stop_print_frame = true;
      stop_waiting (ecs);
      ecs->event_thread->suspend.stop_signal = GDB_SIGNAL_0;
      return;
    }

Note how the STOP_QUIETLY / STOP_QUIETLY_REMOTE case above that does
call context_switch.

And the reason "set debug infrun 1" "fixes" it, is that the debug path
has a switch_to_thread call.

This patch fixes it by moving the main context_switch call earlier.
It also removes the:

   if (ecs->ptid != inferior_ptid)

check at the same time because:

 #1 - that is half of what context_switch already does

 #2 - deprecated_context_hook is only used in Insight, and all it does
      is set an int.  It won't care if we call it when the current
      thread hasn't actually changed.

A testcase exercising this will be added in a following patch.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	PR gdb/27055
	* infrun.c (handle_signal_stop): Move main context_switch call
	earlier, before STOP_QUIETLY_NO_SIGSTOP.

		   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

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.
