Per-inferior/Inferior-qualified thread IDs
This commit changes GDB to track thread numbers per-inferior. Then, if you're debugging multiple inferiors, GDB displays "inferior-num.thread-num" instead of just "thread-num" whenever it needs to display a thread: (gdb) info inferiors Num Description Executable 1 process 6022 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads * 2 process 6037 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads (gdb) info threads Id Target Id Frame 1.1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 6022) "threads" (running) 1.2 Thread 0x7ffff77c0700 (LWP 6028) "threads" (running) 1.3 Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 6032) "threads" (running) 2.1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc1700 (LWP 6037) "threads" (running) 2.2 Thread 0x7ffff77c0700 (LWP 6038) "threads" (running) * 2.3 Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 6039) "threads" (running) (gdb) ... (gdb) thread 1.1 [Switching to thread 1.1 (Thread 0x7ffff7fc2740 (LWP 8155))] (gdb) ... etc. You can still use "thread NUM", in which case GDB infers you're referring to thread NUM of the current inferior. The $_thread convenience var and Python's InferiorThread.num attribute are remapped to the new per-inferior thread number. It's a backward compatibility break, but since it only matters when debugging multiple inferiors, I think it's worth doing. Because MI thread IDs need to be a single integer, we keep giving threads a global identifier, _in addition_ to the per-inferior number, and make MI always refer to the global thread IDs. IOW, nothing changes from a MI frontend's perspective. Similarly, since Python's Breakpoint.thread and Guile's breakpoint-thread/set-breakpoint-thread breakpoint methods need to work with integers, those are adjusted to work with global thread IDs too. Follow up patches will provide convenient means to access threads' global IDs. To avoid potencially confusing users (which also avoids updating much of the testsuite), if there's only one inferior and its ID is "1", IOW, the user hasn't done anything multi-process/inferior related, then the "INF." part of thread IDs is not shown. E.g,.: (gdb) info inferiors Num Description Executable * 1 process 15275 /home/pedro/gdb/tests/threads (gdb) info threads Id Target Id Frame * 1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc1740 (LWP 15275) "threads" main () at threads.c:40 (gdb) add-inferior Added inferior 2 (gdb) info threads Id Target Id Frame * 1.1 Thread 0x7ffff7fc1740 (LWP 15275) "threads" main () at threads.c:40 (gdb) No regressions on x86_64 Fedora 20. gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-01-13 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * NEWS: Mention that thread IDs are now per inferior and global thread IDs. * Makefile.in (SFILES): Add tid-parse.c.
