Thinking that this might be a problem of SIGTERM reaching GDB, but
then the event loop taking too long to handle it, I hacked GDB to
print a debug log whenever the SIGTERM handler was called, and,
whenever the event loop finally calls the async SIGTERM handler.
Here's what I see:
infrun: 30011 [Thread 30011],
infrun: status->kind = stopped, signal = GDB_SIGNAL_TRAP
infrun: TARGET_WAITKIND_STOPPED
infrun: stop_pc = 0x4005de

Cannot execute this command while the target is running.
Use the "interrupt" command to stop the target
and then try again.
gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp: expect eof #27
FAIL: gdb.base/gdb-sigterm.exp: SIGTERM stepped 228 times
So, no delay on the GDB side. It just happens that occasionally it
takes more than 200 single-steps before SIGTERM even reaches GDB.
This just looks like a kernel/scheduling issue --- some extra usage
spike in the system (e.g., an I/O spike) might cause it for me. For
the build slaves, I'm guessing they're frequently busy enough to trip
on this often. Particularly more so now that we're having them run
tests in parallel mode.
The fix is to detect failure by timeout instead of counting single
steps. This should be more reliable. Indeed for me, after this
commit, I couldn't trigger a FAIL anymore, even after letting the test
run for an hour.
By timeout is also nicer in that a board file for a slow host/target
can increase it (like, e.g., an embedded GNU/Linux board).

This patchs adds plugin_input_file_t to implement get_input_file, get_view
and release_input_file. The maximum memeory overhead per IR input file
are about 40 bytes for plugin_input_file_t plus the memory to store input
IR filename. According to
http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/whopr/driver
RELEASE_INPUT_FILE: Function pointer to the linker interface that
releases a file descriptor for a claimed input file. The plug-in library
must call this interface for each file descriptor obtained by the "get
input file" interface. It must release all such file descriptors before
returning from the WPA phase.
However, GCC plug-in library doesn't use the "get input file" interface.
It processed the IR input in the claim file handler. Since the the file
descriptor opened for the IR input was unused after the claim file
handler returns and GCC plug-in library before GCC 5 doesn't call the
RELEASE_INPUT_FILE function pointer, ld closed the file descriptor to
avoid leaking file descriptor. But this approach doesn't work with
other plug-in libraries which uses the "get input file", "get view" and
"release input file" interfaces. To avoid file descriptor leak with
GCC prior to GCC 5 and support other plug-in libraries at the same time,
we close the file descriptor only if the input IR file is a bfd_object
file. This scheme doesn't work when a plug-in library needs the file
descriptor and its IR is stored in bfd_object file.

This commit modifies the test program gdb.base/info-os.c so that
it cleans up all allocated System V IPC objects when a fatal
error occurs. Without this, it was possible for the program
to leave IPC objects on the system, and such objects persist
until they are manually deleted or the system reboots.
I looked at changing the SysV IPC key for allocating the IPC objects to
IPC_PRIVATE. That would prevent errors due to namespace conflicts with the
key. However, the test needs to read the actual key number from the 'info
os' command output, and IPC_PRIVATE won't work for that.

This is because in Python 2 tp_hash was:

Py_hash_t is int for 32-bit hosts and long for 64-bit hosts. While on 32-bit

incompatible. As this patch should have no compiled code change it is not

Since the starvation avoidance series
(https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-12/msg00631.html), both
GDB and GDBserver pull all events out of ptrace before deciding which
event to process.
There's one problem with that though. Because we resume new threads
immediately when we see a PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE event, if the program
constantly spawns threads fast enough, new threads can spawn threads
faster we can pull events out of the kernel, and thus we'd get stuck
in an infinite loop, never returning any event to the core to process.
I occasionally see this happen with the
attach-many-short-lived-threads.exp test against gdbserver.
The fix is to delay resuming new threads until we've pulled out all
events out of the kernel.
On native, we already have the resume_stopped_resumed_lwps function
that knows to resume LWPs that are stopped with no event to report to
the core. So the patch just adds another use. GDBserver didn't have
the equivalent yet, so the patch adds one.

Running the testsuite with the native-extended-gdbserver.exp board and

results in dejagnu trying to open a rsh connection to

this board is running things locally.

When reading a core file register section which is larger than
expected, emit a warning. Assume that a register section usually has
exactly the size specified by the regset section iterator. In some
special cases this assumption is wrong, or at least does not match the
regset supply function's logic. Thus also add a way to suppress the
warning in those cases, using a new flag REGSET_VARIABLE_SIZE.

When reading the XSAVE extended state from an i386 or AMD64 core file,
the respective regset iterator requests a minimum section size of
zero. Since the respective regset supply function does not check the
size either, this may lead to accessing data out of range if the
section is too short.
In write mode, the iterator always uses the maximum supported size for
the XSAVE extended state.
This is now changed such that the iterator always requests the
expected size of this section based on xcr0, both for reading and
writing.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* amd64-linux-tdep.c (amd64_linux_iterate_over_regset_sections):
For ".reg-xstate", explicitly specify the requested section size
via X86_XSTATE_SIZE instead of just 0 on input and

Likewise.
As reported in PR 17808, a test case with a forged (invalid) core file
can crash GDB with an assertion failure. In that particular case the
prstatus of an i386 core file looks like that from an AMD64 core file.
Consequently the respective regset supply function i386_supply_gregset
is invoked with a larger buffer than usual. But i386_supply_gregset
asserts a specific buffer size, and this assertion fails.
The patch relaxes all buffer size assertions in regset supply
functions such that they merely check for a sufficiently large buffer.
For consistency the regset collect functions are adjusted as well.
