Re: linux native async mode support
> New patch attached. No regressions in async mode other than
> the same defines.exp regressions, and no regressions when async
> mode is disabled. --- tested on x86-64-unknown-linux-gnu.
I've tested it (evidently on i686-linux-gnu) with
set GDBFLAGS "-ex \"maint set linux-async on\""
in site.exp, ignoring commands.exp and just got a few extra exceptions:
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-var-child-f.exp: mi runto MAIN__ (timeout)
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi-var-child-f.exp: create local variable array
FAIL: gdb.mi/mi2-simplerun.exp: continue to end (1)
FAIL: gdb.threads/pthreads.exp: check backtrace from main thread
Are you going to add any new tests?
My original test file mi-async.exp (attached below) works with your patch when
GDBFLAGS is toggled as above. It would be be good to have a test for
-exec-interrupt too.
