This is especially significant when your remote is a kernel with 100s or 1000s of threads and latency is intercontinental. Previously, with target, remote, and infrun debugging enabled, one might see: Sending packet: $Hg18aee#43...Ack Packet received: OK Sending packet: $Hg186f7#eb...Ack Packet received: OK remote:target_xfer_partial (24, , 0x805454000, 0x0, 0x0, 4096) = -1, 0 repeated for all non-exited threads. Afterwards, if the remote does not specify 'qXfer:btrace-conf:read+' in qSupported stub features, these unnecessary thread switches are avoided. gdb/ChangeLog: * remote.c (remote_target::remote_btrace_maybe_reopen): Avoid unnecessary thread walk if remote doesn't support the packet. --- diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index 2dce609068..d9e676ac7c 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,8 @@ +2019-08-20 Conrad Meyer + + * remote.c (remote_target::remote_btrace_maybe_reopen): Avoid + unnecessary thread walk if remote doesn't support the packet. + 2019-08-19 Tom Tromey * python/py-value.c (value_has_field): Fix indentation. diff --git a/gdb/remote.c b/gdb/remote.c index 7ea9cd4cf0..ae06c4ba79 100644 --- a/gdb/remote.c +++ b/gdb/remote.c @@ -13700,6 +13700,11 @@ remote_target::remote_btrace_maybe_reopen () int warned = 0; #endif + /* Don't bother walking the entirety of the remote thread list when + we know the feature isn't supported by the remote. */ + if (packet_support (PACKET_qXfer_btrace_conf) != PACKET_ENABLE) + return; + scoped_restore_current_thread restore_thread; for (thread_info *tp : all_non_exited_threads ())
