If we make GDB report the process EXIT event for the leader thread,
instead of whatever is the last thread in the LWP list, as will be
done in a latter patch of this series, then
gdb.threads/current-lwp-dead.exp starts failing:
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.exp: catch SIGUSR1 (the program exited)
This is a testcase race -- the main thread does not wait for the
spawned clone "thread" to finish before exiting, so the main program
may exit before the second thread is scheduled and reports its
SIGUSR1. With the change to make GDB report the EXIT for the leader,
the race is 100% reproducible by adding a sleep(), like so:
--- c/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.c
+++ w/gdb/testsuite/gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.c
@@ -51,6 +51,7 @@ local_gettid (void)
static int
fn (void *unused)
{
+ sleep (1);
tkill (local_gettid (), SIGUSR1);
return 0;
}
Resulting in:
Breakpoint 1, main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffd418) at gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.c:65
65 stack = malloc (STACK_SIZE);
(gdb) continue
Continuing.
[New LWP 3715562]
[Inferior 1 (process 3715555) exited normally]
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.threads/clone-new-thread-event.exp: catch SIGUSR1 (the program exited)
That inferior exit reported is actually correct. The main thread has
indeed exited, and that's the thread that has the right exit code to
report to the user, as that's the exit code that is reported to the
program's parent. In this case, GDB managed to collect the exit code
for the leader thread before reaping the other thread, because in
reality, the testcase isn't creating standard threads, it is using raw
clone, and the new clones are put in their own thread group.
Fix it by making the main thread wait for the child to exit. Also,
run the program to completion for completeness.
