[gdb/testsuite] Handle SIGILL in gdb.reverse/insn-reverse.exp
Consider test-case gdb.reverse/insn-reverse.exp. It runs a number of subtests, dependent on the architecture, f.i. for x86_64 it runs subtests rdrand and rdseed. For each subtest, it checks whether the subtest is supported and otherwise bails out of that subtest. However, there may be a problem with the support test or the information it relies on, and if it states that a subtest is supported while it is actually not, we may run into a SIGILL, as f.i. described in PR21166, which results in tcl errors like this: ... ERROR: tcl error sourcing src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.reverse/insn-reverse.exp. ERROR: can't read "insn_array(5)": no such element in array ... We can emulate this by inserting a sigfpe in function rdrand in insn-reverse-x86.c, like this: ... volatile int a = 0; volatile int b = 1; volatile int c = b / a; ... The problem is that the loop in the test-case attempts to stepi over of all insn in rdrand, but because of the signal it will never get to the last insn. Handle this by detecting that the stepi made no progress, and bailing out of the loop. Furthermore, make running of the subtests independent, such that a SIGILL in subtest rdrand does not affect running of subtest rdseed. Tested on x86_64-linux. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2020-12-04 Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de> * gdb.reverse/insn-reverse.c (test_nr): New var. (usage, parse_args): New function. (main): Call parse_args. Only run test for test_nr. * gdb.reverse/insn-reverse.exp: Detect lack of progress in stepi loop and bail out. Run subtests individually, using an inferior arg specifying the subtest.
