From: Pedro Alves Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2015 16:10:09 +0000 (+0100) Subject: gdbserver: fix silent error exit X-Git-Url: http://git.efficios.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=608a1e46394e9df951968c9112fbec3065da5fba;p=deliverable%2Fbinutils-gdb.git gdbserver: fix silent error exit Running gdb.threads/process-dies-while-handling-bp.exp against gdbserver sometimes FAILs because GDBserver drops the connection, but the logs leave no clue on what the reason could be. Running manually a few times, I saw the same: $ ./gdbserver/gdbserver --multi :9999 testsuite/gdb.threads/process-dies-while-handling-bp Process testsuite/gdb.threads/process-dies-while-handling-bp created; pid = 12766 Listening on port 9999 Remote debugging from host 127.0.0.1 Listening on port 9999 Child exited with status 0 Child exited with status 0 What happened is that an exception escaped and gdbserver reopened the connection, which led to that second "Listening on port 9999" output. The error was a failure to access registers from a now-dead thread. The exception probably shouldn't have escaped here, but meanwhile, this at least makes the issue less mysterious.
