On a target that is both always in non-stop mode and can do displaced stepping (such as native x86_64 GNU/Linux, with "maint set target-non-stop on"), the step-over-trips-on-watchpoint.exp test sometimes fails like this: (gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/step-over-trips-on-watchpoint.exp: no thread-specific bp: step: thread 1 set scheduler-locking off (gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/step-over-trips-on-watchpoint.exp: no thread-specific bp: step: set scheduler-locking off step -[Switching to Thread 0x7ffff7fc0700 (LWP 11782)] -Hardware watchpoint 4: watch_me - -Old value = 0 -New value = 1 -child_function (arg=0x0) at /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/step-over-trips-on-watchpoint.c:39 -39 other = 1; /* set thread-specific breakpoint here */ -(gdb) PASS: gdb.threads/step-over-trips-on-watchpoint.exp: no thread-specific bp: step: step +wait_threads () at /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/step-over-trips-on-watchpoint.c:49 +49 return 1; /* in wait_threads */ +(gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/step-over-trips-on-watchpoint.exp: no thread-specific bp: step: step Note "scheduler-locking" was set off. The problem is that on such targets, the step-over of thread 2 and the "step" of thread 1 can be set to run simultaneously (since with displaced stepping the breakpoint isn't ever removed from the target), and sometimes, the "step" of thread 1 finishes first, so it'd take another resume to see the watchpoint trigger. Fix this by replacing the wait_threads function with a one-line infinite loop that doesn't call any function, so that the "step" of thread 1 never finishes. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2015-08-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.threads/step-over-lands-on-breakpoint.c (wait_threads): Delete function. (main): Add alarm. Run an infinite loop instead of calling wait_threads. * gdb.threads/step-over-lands-on-breakpoint.exp (do_test): Change comment. * gdb.threads/step-over-trips-on-watchpoint.c (wait_threads): Delete function. (main): Add alarm. Run an infinite loop instead of calling wait_threads. * gdb.threads/step-over-trips-on-watchpoint.exp (do_test): Change comment.
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.
