This is another attempt at fixing the problem described in commit 4cf88725da1
"[gdb/symtab] Fix infinite recursion in dwarf2_cu::get_builder()", which was
reverted in commit 3db19b2d724.
First off, some context.
A DWARF CU can be viewed as a symbol table: toplevel children of a CU DIE
represent symbol table entries for that CU. Furthermore, there is a
hierarchy: a symbol table entry such as a function itself has a symbol table
containing parameters and local variables.
The dwarf reader maintains a notion of current symbol table (that is: the
symbol table a new symbol needs to be entered into) in dwarf2_cu member
list_in_scope.
A problem then presents itself when reading inter-CU references:
- a new symbol read from a CU B needs to be entered into the symbol table of
another CU A.
- the notion of current symbol table is tracked on a per-CU basis.
This is addressed in inherit_abstract_dies by temporarily overwriting the
list_in_scope for CU B with the one for CU A.
The current symbol table is one aspect of the current dwarf reader context
that is tracked, but there are more, f.i. ones that are tracked via the
dwarf2_cu member m_builder, f.i. m_builder->m_local_using_directives.
A similar problem exists in relation to inter-CU references, but a different
solution was chosen:
- to keep track of an ancestor field in dwarf2_cu, which is updated
when traversing inter-CU references, and
- to use the ancestor field in dwarf2_cu::get_builder to return the m_builder
in scope.
There is no actual concept of a CU having an ancestor, it just marks the most
recent CU from which a CU was inter-CU-referenced. Consequently, when
following inter-CU references from a CU A to another CU B and back to CU A,
the ancestors form a cycle, which causes dwarf2_cu::get_builder to hang or
segfault, as reported in PR26327.
ISTM that the ancestor implementation is confusing and fragile, and should
go. Furthermore, it seems that keeping track of the m_builder in scope can be
handled simply with a per-objfile variable.
Fix the hang / segfault by:
- keeping track of the m_builder in scope using a new variable
per_obj->sym_cu, and
- using it in dwarf2_cu::get_builder.
Tested on x86_64-linux (openSUSE Leap 15.2), no regressions for config:
- using default gcc version 7.5.0
(with 5 unexpected FAILs)
- gcc 10.3.0 and target board

(with 1000 unexpected FAILs)

I finally found time to teach readelf to identify PIEs in the file
header display and program header display. So in place of
"DYN (Shared object file)" which isn't completely true, show
"DYN (Position-Independent Executable file)".
It requires a little bit of untangling code in readelf due to
process_program_headers setting up dynamic_addr and dynamic_size,
needed to scan .dynamic for the DT_FLAGS_1 entry, and
process_program_headers itself wanting to display the file type in
some cases. At first I modified process_program_header using a
"probe" parameter similar to get_section_headers in order to inhibit
output, but decided it was cleaner to separate out
locate_dynamic_sections.

This commit fixes a test coverage regression caused by:
commit b001de2320446ec803b4ee5e0b9710b025b84469

gdb: Update test pattern to deal with native-extended-gdbserver
While looking at a regression caused by a local patch I was working
on, I noticed this:
pre-prompt
(gdb)
prompt
PASS: gdb.base/annota1.exp: breakpoint info
PASS: gdb.base/annota1.exp: run until main breakpoint
run
post-prompt
Starting program: /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/annota1/annota1
next
Note how above, we get the "run until main breakpoint" pass even
before "run" shows up in the log! The issue is that the test isn't
really testing anything, it always passes regardless of the gdb
output.
There are a few problems here, fixed by this commit:
- using {} to build the list for [join], when the strings we're
joining include variable names that must be expanded. Such list
need to be built with [list] instead.
- [join] joins strings with a space character by default. We need to
pass the empty string as second parameter so that it just concats
the strings.
- doing too much in a "-re" (calling procedures), which doesn't work
correctly. I've seen this before and never digged deeper into why.
Probably something to do with how gdb_test_multiple is implemented.
Regardless, easy and clear enough to build the pattern first into a
variable.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
yyyy-mm-dd Pedro Alves <pedro@palves.net>
* gdb.base/annota1.exp: Build list using [list] instead of {}.
Tell [join] to join with no character. Build expected pattern in
separate variable instead of in the -re expression directly.

Loading libc.so's symbols increased the amount of time needed for
114-symbol-info-function to fetch symbols, causing a timeout during my
testing. I enclosed the entire block with a "with_timeout_factor 4",
which fixes the problem for me. (Using 2 also fixed it for me, but it
might not be enough when running this test on slower machines.)

* gdb.mi/mi-sym-info.exp (114-symbol-info-function test): Increase
timeout.

One consequence of changing libpthread_name_p() in solib.c to (also)
match libc is that the symbols for libc will now be loaded by
solib_add() in solib.c. I think this is mostly harmless because
we'll likely want these symbols to be loaded anyway, but it did cause
two failures in gdb.base/print-symbol-loading.exp.
Specifically...
1)
sharedlibrary .*
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/print-symbol-loading.exp: shlib off: load shared-lib
now looks like this:
sharedlibrary .*
Symbols already loaded for /lib64/libc.so.6
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/print-symbol-loading.exp: shlib off: load shared-lib
2)
sharedlibrary .*
Loading symbols for shared libraries: .*
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/print-symbol-loading.exp: shlib brief: load shared-lib
now looks like this:
sharedlibrary .*
Loading symbols for shared libraries: .*
Symbols already loaded for /lib64/libc.so.6
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/print-symbol-loading.exp: shlib brief: load shared-lib
Fixing case #2 ended up being easier than #1. #1 had been using
gdb_test_no_output to correctly match this no-output case. I
ended up replacing it with gdb_test_multiple, matching the exact
expected output for each of the two now acceptable cases.
For case #2, I simply added an optional non-capturing group
for the potential new output.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/print-symbol-loading.exp (proc test_load_shlib):
Allow "Symbols already loaded for..." messages.

When using glibc-2.34, we now see messages related to the loading of
the thread library for non-thread programs. E.g. for the test case,
gdb.base/execl-update-breakpoints.exp, we will see the following when
starting the program:
(gdb) break -qualified main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x100118c: file /ironwood1/sourceware-git/f34-2-glibc244_fix/bld/../../worktree-glibc244_fix/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/execl-update-breakpoints.c, line 34.
(gdb) run
Starting program: [...]/execl-update-breakpoints1
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/lib64/libthread_db.so.1".
The two lines of output related to libthread_db are new; we didn't see
these in the past. This is a side effect of libc now containing the
pthread API - we can no longer tell whether the program is
multi-threaded by simply looking for libpthread.so. That said, I
think that we now want to load libthread_db anyway since it's used to
resolve TLS variables; i.e. we need it for correctly determining the
value of errno.
This commit adds the necessary regular expressions to match this
(optional) additional output in the two tests which were failing
without it.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/execl-update-breakpoints.exp: Add regular
expression for optionally matching output related to
libthread_db.
* gdb.base/fork-print-inferior-events.exp: Likewise.

This commit makes some adjustments to accomodate the upcoming
glibc-2.34 release. Beginning with glibc-2.34, functionality formerly
contained in libpthread has been moved to libc. For the time being,
libpthread.so still exists in the file system, but it won't show up in
ldd output and therefore won't be able to trigger initialization of
libthread_db related code. E.g...
Fedora 34 / glibc-2.33.9000:
[kev@f34-2 gdb]$ ldd testsuite/outputs/gdb.threads/tls/tls
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffcf94fa000)

libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007ff0ba8b9000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007ff0ba6c6000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007ff0babf0000)
Fedora 34 / glibc-2.33:
[kev@f34-1 gdb]$ ldd testsuite/outputs/gdb.threads/tls/tls
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff32dc0000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f815f6de000)
libstdc++.so.6 => /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007f815f4bf000)
libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007f815f37b000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f815f360000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f815f191000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f815f721000)
Note that libpthread is missing from the ldd output for the
glibc-2.33.9000 machine.
This means that (unless we happen to think of some entirely different
mechanism), we'll now need to potentially match "libc" in addition to
"libpthread" as libraries which might be thread libraries. This
accounts for the change made in solib.c. Note that the new code
attempts to match "/libc." via strstr(). That trailing dot (".")
avoids inadvertently matching libraries such as libcrypt (and
all the other many libraries which begin with "libc").
To avoid attempts to load libthread_db when encountering older
versions of libc, we now attempt to find "pthread_create" (which is a
symbol that we'd expect to be in any pthread library) in the
associated objfile. This accounts for the changes in
linux-thread-db.c.
I think that other small adjustments will need to be made elsewhere
too. I've been working through regressions on my glibc-2.33.9000
machine; I've fixed some fairly "obvious" changes in the testsuite
(which are in other commits). For the rest, it's not yet clear to me
whether the handful of remaining failures represent a problem in glibc
or gdb. I'm still investigating, however, I'll note that these are
problems that I only see on my glibc-2.33.9000 machine.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* solib.c (libpthread_name_p): Match "libc" in addition
to "libpthread".
* linux-thread-db.c (libpthread_objfile_p): New function.

mi-var-child-f.exp uses array.f as the inferior, which uses an unnamed
main function. This causes false positive fails for Intel compilers, as
they emit the following DWARF:
~~~
0x0000002a: DW_TAG_subprogram
DW_AT_low_pc (0x0000000000404800)
DW_AT_high_pc (0x000000000040484c)
DW_AT_frame_base (DW_OP_reg6 RBP)
DW_AT_linkage_name ("MAIN__")
DW_AT_name ("_unnamed_main$$")
DW_AT_decl_file ("array.f")
DW_AT_decl_line (16)
DW_AT_external (true)
DW_AT_main_subprogram (true)
~~~
The testsuite for fortran uses test_compiler_info to determine a hardcoded
string which is used to run to main and as a testing regex:
~~~
proc fortran_main {} {
if {[test_compiler_info {gcc-4-[012]-*}]
|| [test_compiler_info {gcc-*}]
|| [test_compiler_info {icc-*}] {
return "MAIN__"
} elseif {[test_compiler_info {clang-*}]} {
return "MAIN_"
} else {
return "unknown"
}
}
~~~
GDB however uses DW_AT_name mostly in its output, which fails the regex.
To fix this testcase immediately, I modernized array.f and gave it a named
main. There was no specific reason it was unnamed anyway. Fixing
the testsuite properly is not straightforward. fortran_main and
test_compiler_info would need some changes, which has broader influences.
I might look at this later down the road.

This patch implements Rust raw identifiers in the lexer in gdb. There
was an earlier patch to do this, but the contributor didn't reply to
my email asking whether he had sorted out his copyright assignment.
This is relatively straightforward, but a small test suite addition
was needd to ensure that the new test is skipped on older versions of
rustc -- ones that predate the introduction of raw identifiers.

The TUI test gdb.tui/empty.exp fails with the native-extended-gdbserver
board, and takes a very long time to run due to numerous timeouts. The
symptom, when looking at the logs, is that the TUI windows that we
expect to be resized are not resized. Digging down, I found that GDB
didn't receive any SIGWINCH that should have resulted from
Term::resize's stty calls.
The reason for this is:
- The native-extended-gdbserver overrides gdb_start to first start GDB,
then start GDBserver with --multi, then connect GDB to GDBserver.
This means that two TCL "spawn"s are done, one for GDB and one for
GDBserver.
- The TUI test framework wants to know GDB's TTY name, so it can pass
it to stty, to fake terminal resizes. To do so, it overrides the
spawn built-in proc to capture the tty name from the internals of the
built-in proc. It saves the TTY name to the gdb_spawn_name global
variable.
- Because the native-extended-gdbserver boards starts both GDB and
GDBserver, the final value of gdb_spawn_name is the name of
GDBserver's TTY.
- When the TUI test framework attempts to resize GDB's terminal, it in
fact resizes GDBserver's terminal. So obviously, GDB doesn't get the
SIGWINCH, and we don't get the expected TUI redraw.
Fix that by moving the hack to lib/gdb.exp, overriding the builtin spawn
all the time. The override saves the TTY name in the
last_spawn_tty_name global. The default_gdb_spawn proc then saves it in
the gdb_tty_name global. This way, we specifically capture GDB's TTY
name in gdb_tty_name, not the TTY name of other spawned processes.
Remove tuiterm_env_init and tuiterm_env_finish, since they are now
empty. In turn, the gdb_finish_hooks mechanism is now unused, remove it
as well. It would be easy to add them back if needed.

When running test-case gdb.mi/user-selected-context-sync.exp with gcc-11, we
get:
...
continue^M
Continuing.^M
FAIL: gdb.mi/user-selected-context-sync.exp: mode=all-stop: test_setup: \
inferior 1: continue to breakpoint: continue thread 1.2 to infinite \
loop breakpoint (timeout)
...
This is a regression since commit aa33ea68330 "testsuite, mi: avoid a clang
bug in 'user-selected-context-sync.exp'", which fixes a similar hang when
using clang.
The source before the commit contains:
...
while (1);
...
and after the commit:
...
int spin = 1;
while (spin);
...
[ FWIW, I've filed a PR gcc/101011 - Inconsistent debug info for "while (1);"
to mention that gcc-11 has different behaviour for these two loops. ]
The problem is that:
- the test-case expects the behaviour that a breakpoint set
on the while line will trigger on every iteration, and
- that is not guaranteed by either version of the loop.
Fix this by using a while loop with a dummy body:
...
volatile int dummy = 0;
while (1)
dummy = !dummy;
...
and setting the breakpoint in the body.
Tested on x86_64-linux with clang 10.0.1, gcc-4.8, gcc 7.5.0 and gcc 11.1.1.

FAIL: gdb.base/foll-exec.exp: print execd-program/local_j (after execl)
As we can note, reason for these new test failures is due to additional
.debug_line entries getting created in case of clang compiler, hence to fix
this issue, test case required either additional next command during
these multi-line function call or combine these multi-line function call into
single line. This PR has taken the latter approach and converted the multi-line
function call into single line in foll-exec.c, thereby there is no change in
.debug_line entries now and test case works as expected.

When running check-read1, we run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.cp/cplusfuncs.exp: info function for "operator=(" (timeout)
...
Fix this by using using gdb_test_lines in info_func_regexp.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2021-06-10 Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de>
* gdb.cp/cplusfuncs.exp (info_func_regexp): Use gdb_test_lines.
|

Tom de Vries noticed that the recent changes to the testsuite's
configury required an update to the README. This patch changes the
text to document the new reality.
2021-06-09 Tom Tromey <tromey@adacore.com>
* README (Example): Update read1 example.

I was diagnosing some problem with a TUI test case, which lead me to
improve the logging of _check_box a bit. It did help me, so I think it
would be nice to have it upstream.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* lib/tuiterm.exp (Term) <_check_box>: Improve logging.

While reviewing a patch sent to the mailing list, I noticed there are few
places where python code checks if a variable is 'None' or not by using the
comparison operators '==' and '!='. PEP8[1], which is used as coding standard
in GDB coding standards, recommends using 'is' / 'is not' when comparing to a
singleton such as 'None'.
This patch proposes to change the instances of '== None' by 'is None' and
'!= None' by 'is not None'.

gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* python.texi (Writing a Pretty-Printer): Use 'is None' instead of
'== None'.

attaching / handling a fork child
When trying to attach to a pthread process on a Linux system with glibc 2.33,
we get:
$ ./gdb -q -nx --data-directory=data-directory -p 1472010
Attaching to process 1472010
[New LWP 1472013]
[New LWP 1472014]
[New LWP 1472015]
Error while reading shared library symbols for /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0:
Cannot find user-level thread for LWP 1472015: generic error
0x00007ffff6d3637f in poll () from /usr/lib/libc.so.6
(gdb)
When attaching to a process (or handling a fork child, an operation very
similar to attaching), GDB reads the shared library list from the
process. For each shared library (if "set auto-solib-add" is on), it
reads its symbols and calls the "new_objfile" observable.
The libthread-db code monitors this observable, and if it sees an
objfile named somewhat like "libpthread.so" go by, it tries to load
libthread_db.so in the GDB process itself. libthread_db knows how to
navigate libpthread's data structures to get information about the
existing threads.
To locate these data structures, libthread_db calls ps_pglobal_lookup
(implemented in proc-service.c), passing in a symbol name and expecting
an address in return.
Before glibc 2.33, libthread_db always asked for symbols found in
libpthread. There was no ordering problem: since we were always trying
to load libthread_db in reaction to processing libpthread (and reading
in its symbols) and libthread_db only asked symbols from libpthread, the
requested symbols could always be found. Starting with glibc 2.33,
libthread_db now asks for a symbol name that can be found in
/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (_rtld_global). And the ordering in which GDB
reads the shared libraries from the inferior when attaching is
unfortunate, in that libpthread is processed before ld-linux. So when
loading libthread_db in reaction to processing libpthread, and
libthread_db requests the symbol that is from ld-linux, GDB is not yet
able to supply it.
That problematic symbol lookup happens in the thread_from_lwp function,
when we call td_ta_map_lwp2thr_p, and an exception is thrown at this
point:

Catching the exception at this point means that the thread_db_info
object for this inferior will be left in place, despite the failure to
load libthread_db. This means that there won't be further attempts at
loading libthread_db, because thread_db_load will think that
libthread_db is already loaded for this inferior and will always exit
early. To fix this, add a try/catch around calling try_thread_db_load_1
in try_thread_db_load, such that if some exception is thrown while
trying to load libthread_db, we reset / delete the thread_db_info for
that inferior. That alone makes attach work fine again, because
check_for_thread_db is called again in the thread_db_inferior_created
observer (that happens after we learned about all shared libraries and
their symbols), and libthread_db is successfully loaded then.
When attaching, I think that the inferior_created observer is a good
place to try to load libthread_db: it is called once everything has
stabilized, when we learned about all shared libraries.
The only problem then is that when we first try (and fail) to load
libthread_db, in reaction to learning about libpthread, we show this
warning:
warning: Unable to find libthread_db matching inferior's thread library, thread debugging will not be available.
This is misleading, because we do succeed in loading it later. So when
attaching, I think we shouldn't try to load libthread_db in reaction to
the new_objfile events, we should wait until we have learned about all
shared libraries (using the inferior_created observable). To do so, add
an `in_initial_library_scan` flag to struct inferior. This flag is used
to postpone loading libthread_db if we are attaching or handling a fork
child.
When debugging remotely with GDBserver, the same problem happens, except
that the qSymbol mechanism (allowing the remote side to ask GDB for
symbols values) is involved. The fix there is the same idea, we make
GDB wait until all shared libraries and their symbols are known before
sending out a qSymbol packet. This way, we never present the remote
side a state where libpthread.so's symbols are known but ld-linux's
symbols aren't.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* inferior.h (class inferior) <in_initial_library_scan>: New.
* infcmd.c (post_create_inferior): Set in_initial_library_scan.
* infrun.c (follow_fork_inferior): Likewise.
* linux-thread-db.c (try_thread_db_load): Catch exception thrown
by try_thread_db_load_1
(thread_db_load): Return early if in_initial_library_scan is
set.
* remote.c (remote_new_objfile): Return early if
in_initial_library_scan is set.

It's a common mistake of mine to do:
...
set l [list "foo" "bar"]
set re [multi_line $l]
...
and to get "foo bar" while I was expecting "foo\r\nbar", which I get after
doing instead:
...
set re [multi_line {*}$l]
...
Detect this type of mistake by erroring out in multi_line when only one
argument is passed.
Tested on x86_64-linux.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2021-06-08 Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de>
* lib/gdb.exp (multi_line): Require more than one argument.

* gdb.base/jit-reader.exp: Remove multi_line call.
* gdb.fortran/dynamic-ptype-whatis.exp: Same.

set output_lines \
[list \
+ "All defined types:" \
+ "--any" \
$file_re \
...
Consequently, we can simplify the state machine to track a variable "found"
with values:
- 0 (unmatched)
- 1 (matched)
- -1 (mismatch).
This makes the code generic enough to factor out into a new proc
gdb_test_lines.

With check-read1, I run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.base/batch-preserve-term-settings.exp: batch run: \
terminal settings preserved
...
This is caused by spawn_shell matching too little output, after which
things start to go out of sync.
More specifically, the regexp:
...
-re "PS1=\[^\r\n\]*\r\n.*$shell_prompt_re$" {
...
matches the first and part of the second line of this output:
...
PS1="gdb-subshell$ "^M
sh-4.4$ PS1="gdb-subshell$ "^M
gdb-subshell$
...
while it's supposed to match the entire output.
Fix this by splitting up the regexp into a part that skips the lines with PS1,
and one that reads the shell prompt.

This is due to this regexp:

While looking at gdb.base/sect-cmd.exp, I noticed a few things that can be
simplified:
- use gdb_test instead of gdb_test_multiple
- use -wrap "" as regexp
Also, I noticed this:

fail "$gdb_test_name, saw not found marker"
...
while our usual test naming scheme uses parentheses, like so:
...
fail "$gdb_test_name (saw not found marker)"
...
Fix the test-name and do the simplifications.

gdb_rl_find_completion_word came to life as a modified (stripped down)
version of readline's internal _rl_find_completion_word function.
When I added it, I don't remember whether I realized that
'found_quote' wasn't really necessary. Maybe I kept it thinking of
keeping the source code in sync with readline? I don't recall
anymore. Since the function is already stripped down compared to the
original, stripping it down some more doesn't hurt.
So fix the issue by removing the unnecessary code.

The problem is that:
- The flagged code is casting to "struct compat_x32_siginfo" pointer
directly instead of to a pointer to the compat_x32_siginfo_t

run to main
While doing some changes, I managed to break this test in a way that
running to main didn't work. However, it didn't produce any FAIL. I
noticed because I diff'ed the results and saw some PASSes unexpectedly
disappear, but that's a bit fragile. Add a fail in case this test fails
to run to main. Ideally, I think that runto_main should by default
produce a FAIL when it fails (the opposite of the existing logic), but
that's a project of its own, so just fix this test for the moment.

It was spotted that if type_align returned 0 then it was possible to
trigger a divide by zero exception within GDB. It turns out this will
only happen in an edge case where GDB is unable to figure out the
alignment of a field within a structure.
The attached test generates some non-standard, probably broken, DWARF,
that triggers this condition, and then fixes this issue by throwing an
exception when this case occurs.

The past commit d1e93af64a6b ("gdb: set current thread in
sparc_{fetch,collect}_inferior_registers (PR gdb/27147)") changed
sparc_fetch_inferior_registers and sparc_store_inferior_registers to
look up the thread corresponding to the regcache's ptid and make it the
current thread. The reason being that down the call chain, some
functions (like sparc_supply_rwindow) can do some memory reads or write,
through target_read_memory/target_write_memory, and those rely on the
current global context.
There is one small problem with this approach: when debugging a
multi-threaded program, the regcache for a new thread is created just
before the corresponding thread_info is created. In fact, the regcache
is created somewhere during the call to thread_from_lwp, which is
responsible for creating the thread_info:

The problem is that while sparc_fetch_inferior_registers runs and is
asked to read the registers of a given ptid, there isn't a thread_info
with that ptid yet. So, find_thread_ptid returns nullptr, and
switch_to_thread gives an internal error.
Fix this by only setting inferior_ptid, instead of the whole global
context, as switch_to_thread does. This is sufficient for
target_read_memory / target_write_memory to work down the line.
Ideally, it would be nice to be able to pass the ptid down the whole
call chain and to target_read_memory / target_write_memory, so that this
setting of inferior_ptid would not be necessary. But this is not going
to happen soon.
This fixes running a multi-threaded program, which would hit the
internal error show in the call stack above.

Recently, I've rewritten gdb.base/info-types.exp.tcl to do processing
line-by-line (commit 2129a942553).
When building gdb with -O0, this test passes for me, but with -O2 I sometimes
run into:
...
FAIL: gdb.base/info-types-c.exp: info types (state == 1)
...
The output the failing gdb_test_multiple is trying to parse is:
...
(gdb) info types^M
All defined types:^M
^M
File src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/info-types.c:^M
52: typedef enum {...} anon_enum_t;^M
...
(gdb)
...
and the FAIL with state == 1 means that:
- the regexp for "All defined types:" did trigger, and that
- the regexp for "File .*info-types.c" didn't trigger.
This is due to the fact that the empty line inbetween is supposed to be
matched by the "random line" regexp "^\r\n(\[^\r\n\]*)(?=\r\n)", which doesn't
happen because instead the earlier regexp consuming the gdb prompt matches.
Fix this by moving the "random line" regexp up. [ Note that that regexp does
not consume the gdb prompt, because it requires (but doesn't consume) a
terminating "\r\n".

I get some random timeouts in this test due to big debug info taking a
lot of time to read through gdbserver. When host and target are on the
same machine, clear the sysroot parameter so that GDB reads the files
from the local file system, as we already do in many tests.
I agree with what Pedro says here:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2019-March/156568.html
that if this is bad for us, it's also bad for users, so we should be
fixing the slowness instead. But so far nobody seems to be working on
it, and the testsuite timeouts are getting in the way, so I think this
"set sysroot" is a net positive for now.
Without this patch, the test takes over 2 minutes to run (most of it
"downloading" libc debug info), with it it takes 10 seconds.
