Handle pending stops from the Windows kernel
PR gdb/22992 concerns an assertion failure in gdb when debugging a certain inferior: int finish_step_over(execution_control_state*): Assertion `ecs->event_thread->control.trap_expected' failed. Initially the investigation centered on the discovery that gdb was not suspending other threads when attempting to single-step. This oversight is corrected in this patch: now, when stepping a thread, gdb will call SuspendThread on all other threads. However, the bug persisted even after this change. In particular, WaitForDebugEvent could see a stop for a thread that was ostensibly suspended. Our theory of what is happening here is that there are actually simultaneous breakpoint hits, and the Windows kernel queues the events, causing the second stop to be reported on a suspended thread. In Windows 10 or later gdb could use the DBG_REPLY_LATER flag to ContinueDebugEvent to request that such events be re-reported later. However, relying on that did not seem advisable, so this patch instead arranges to queue such "pending" stops, and then to report them later, once the step has completed. In the PR, Pedro pointed out that it's best in this scenario to implement the stopped_by_sw_breakpoint method, so this patch does this as well. gdb/ChangeLog 2020-04-08 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com> PR gdb/22992 * windows-nat.c (current_event): Update comment.
