[PATCH] Fix gdb.threads/process-dies-while-detaching.exp

- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
I noticed [1] a test bug in gdb.threads/process-dies-while-detaching.exp.
Simplified, the test code in question looks somewhat like this:
~~~
# Detach from a process, and ensure that it exits after detaching.
# This relies on inferior I/O.
proc detach_and_expect_exit {test} {
gdb_test_multiple "detach" $test ....
set saw_prompt 0
set saw_inf_exit 0
while { !$saw_prompt && !$saw_inf_exit } {
gdb_test_multiple "" $test {
-re "exited, status=0" {
set saw_inf_exit 1
}
-re "$gdb_prompt " {
set saw_prompt 1
}
}
}
pass $test
}
~~~
The bug is in the while loop's condition. We want to make sure we see
both the inferior output and the prompt, so the loop's test should be:
- while { !$saw_prompt && !$saw_inf_exit } {
+ while { !$saw_prompt || !$saw_inf_exit } {
If we just fix that, the test starts failing though, because that
exposes a latent problem -- when called from
test_detach_killed_outside, the parent doesn't print "exited,
status=0", because in that case the child dies with a signal, and so
detach_and_expect_exit times out. Fix it by making the parent print
"signaled, sig=9" in that case, and have the .exp expect it.
[1] I changed GDB in a way that should have made the test fail, but it
didn't.
gdb/ChangeLog:
yyyy-mm-dd Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdb.threads/process-dies-while-detaching.c: Include <errno.h>
and <string.h>.
(parent_function): Print distinct messages when waitpid fails, or
the child exits with a signal, or the child exits for an unhandled
reason.
* gdb.threads/process-dies-while-detaching.exp
(detach_and_expect_exit): New 'inf_output_re' parameter and use
it. Wait for both inferior output and GDB's prompt.
(do_detach): New parameter 'child_exit'. Use it to compute
expected inferior output.
(test_detach, test_detach_watch, test_detach_killed_outside):
Adjust to pass down the expected child exit kind.
