This patch enhances GDB on GNU/Linux systems in the situation where
we are debugging an inferior that was created from GDB (as opposed
to attached to), by asking the kernel to kill the inferior if GDB
terminates without doing it itself.
This would typically happen when GDB encounters a problem and
crashes, or when it gets killed by an external process. This can
be observed by starting a program under GDB, and then killing
GDB with signal 9. After GDB is killed, the inferior still remains.
This patch also fixes GDBserver similarly.
This fix is conditional on the kernel supporting the PTRACE_O_EXITKILL
feature. On older kernels, the behavior remains unchanged.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* nat/linux-ptrace.h (PTRACE_O_EXITKILL): Define if not
already defined.
(linux_enable_event_reporting): Add parameter "attached".
* nat/linux-ptrace.c (linux_test_for_exitkill): New forward
declaration. New function.
(linux_check_ptrace_features): Add linux_test_for_exitkill call.
(linux_enable_event_reporting): Add new parameter "attached".
Do not call ptrace with the PTRACE_O_EXITKILL if ATTACHED is
nonzero.
* linux-nat.c (linux_init_ptrace): Add parameter "attached".
Use it. Update function description.
(linux_child_post_attach, linux_child_post_startup_inferior):
Update call to linux_enable_event_reporting.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-low.c (linux_low_filter_event): Update call to
linux_enable_event_reporting following the addition of
a new parameter to that function.
Tested on x86_64-linux, native and native-gdbserver.
I also verified by hand that the inferior gets killed when killing
GDB in the "run" case, while the inferior remains in the "attach"
case. Same for GDBserver.
