Fix host_file_normalize_mingw
Tom de Vries ran the testsuite on msys2-ucrt64 with mount point map:
...
/bin C:/msys64/usr/bin
/c C:
/ C:/msys64
...
and ran into the problem that host_file_normalize didn't translate:
...
/home/user/gdb/build/gdb/testsuite/temp/n/x
...
into:
...
C:/msys64/home/user/gdb/build/gdb/testsuite/temp/n/x
...
The problem is that host_file_normalize_mingw mishandles a
file/directory under the root mount point. A simpler reproducer is
"/foo". If we add that as a test to
gdb.testsuite/mount-point-map.exp, we see:
input: /foo
expected: C:/msys64/foo/
got: /foo
FAIL: gdb.testsuite/mount-point-map.exp: /foo
For a mount point that ends in /, this line in
host_file_normalize_mingw:
} elseif {[string index $filename $mount_len] eq "/"} {
... is always false, because the character at $mount_len is the one
_after_ the slash.
Notice that the "/" mount point is the only one that ends in "/".
This is even if you try to create one explicitly with a trailing /.
On MSYS2:
$ mount c:/foo /foo/
mount: warning - /foo/ does not exist.
$ mount
C:/foo on /foo type ntfs (binary,user)
...
So fix this by special casing the "/" mount point.
And then... while playing with fixing this, I noticed I had done
something strange with this case:
if {[string length $filename] == $mount_len} {
return "$win_filename/"
The intent was to append the slash when the mount is a drive letter,
like 'cygpath -ma' does:
$ cygpath -ma /c
C:/
Other cases do not get a trailing slash:
$ cygpath -ma /c/foo
C:/foo
I think this is because on Windows, every drive letter has a current
directory, and really "C:" means "current directory of drive letter
C:", not "root of C:". Resolving it to "C:/" makes it unambiguous.
However, I mishandled that in a63213cd374d ('MSYS2+MinGW testing: Unix
<-> Windows path conversion'). The original version of that patch
when I posted it to the mailing list only supported drive mounts,
which turned out incorrect, and then I generalized it to work with all
mount points before it was merged. In the process, I inadvertently
made the code append the slash whenever the input filename matches a
mount exactly, any mount.
I also now noticed that TCL's "file normalize" on Linux always removes
the trailing slash, and since host_file_normalize is an abstraction
for it, I think host_file_normalize_mingw should do the same.
Likewise for duplicate slashes, "file normalize" gets rid of them.
Fix all this in host_file_normalize_mingw, and add corresponding tests
to gdb.testsuite/mount-point-map.exp.
I smoke tested this here with a few of the testcases that required
tweaking in the patch that added host_file_normalize, like
gdb.base/source-dir.exp and gdb.base/fullname.exp and they still pass.
Tom ran gdb.testsuite/mount-point-map.exp on both x86_64-linux and
msys2-ucrt64, and it passed in both cases.
