Pedro Alves cdff184f42 Fix gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.exp race
If we make GDB report the process EXIT event for the leader thread,
instead of whatever is the last thread in the LWP list, as will be
done in a latter patch of this series, then
gdb.threads/current-lwp-dead.exp starts failing:

 (gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.exp: catch SIGUSR1 (the program exited)

This is a testcase race -- the main thread does not wait for the
spawned clone "thread" to finish before exiting, so the main program
may exit before the second thread is scheduled and reports its
SIGUSR1.  With the change to make GDB report the EXIT for the leader,
the race is 100% reproducible by adding a sleep(), like so:

 --- c/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.c
 +++ w/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.c
 @@ -51,6 +51,7 @@ local_gettid (void)
  static int
  fn (void *unused)
  {
 +  sleep (1);
    tkill (local_gettid (), SIGUSR1);
    return 0;
  }

Resulting in:

 Breakpoint 1, main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffd418) at gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.c:65
 65        stack = malloc (STACK_SIZE);

 [Inferior 1 (process 3715555) exited normally]
 (gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.exp: catch SIGUSR1 (the program exited)

That inferior exit reported is actually correct.  The main thread has
indeed exited, and that's the thread that has the right exit code to
report to the user, as that's the exit code that is reported to the
program's parent.  In this case, GDB managed to collect the exit code
for the leader thread before reaping the other thread, because in
reality, the testcase isn't creating standard threads, it is using raw
clone, and the new clones are put in their own thread group.

Fix it by making the main thread wait for the child to exit.  Also,
run the program to completion for completeness.

		   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.
