Step over fork/vfork syscall insn in gdbserver
We can also extend disp-step-syscall.exp to test GDBserver step over breakpoint on syscall instruction. That is, we set a breakpoint with a false condition on syscall instruction, so that GDBserver will step over it. This test triggers a GDBserver internal error, which can be fixed by this series. (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: fork: break cond on target: break on syscall insns continue^M Continuing.^M Remote connection closed^M (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: fork: break cond on target: continue to fork again In GDBserver, there is an internal error, /home/yao/SourceCode/gnu/gdb/git/gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.c:1922: A problem internal to GDBserver has been detected. unsuspend LWP 25554, suspended=-1 the simplified reproducer is like, $ ./gdb ./testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/disp-step-syscall/disp-step-fork (gdb) b main (gdb) c (gdb) disassemble fork // in order to find the address of insn 'syscall' .... 0x00007ffff7ad6023 <+179>: syscall (gdb) b *0x00007ffff7ad6023 if main == 0 (gdb) c gdb/testsuite: 2016-03-03 Yao Qi <yao.qi@linaro.org> * gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp (break_cond_on_syscall): New.
