The target # assumed that the vfork-done event it received was for the current inferior # (an invalid assumption, the current inferior is the one randomly selected by # do_target_wait (at the time of writing). This caused the target to drop the # vfork-done event, because it was seen as unneeded and to restart the thread # as if nothing happened. This however resulted in the thread running with # breakpoints not inserted. # # To catch the bug, this test verifies that we can hit a breakpoint after a # vfork call, while a second inferior runs in the background. require !use_gdb_stub standard_testfile .c -sleep.c set srcfile_sleep $srcfile2 set binfile_sleep ${binfile}-sleep # The reproducibility of the bug depends on which inferior randomly selects in # do_target_wait when consuming the vfork-done event. Since GDB doesn't call # srand(), we are likely to always see the same sequence of inferior selected by # do_target_wait, which can hide the bug if you are not "lucky". To work # around that, call vfork and hit the breakpoint in a loop, it makes it # somewhat likely that the wrong inferior will be selected eventually. set nr_loops 20 # Compile the main program that calls vfork and hits a breakpoint. set opts [list debug additional_flags=-DNR_LOOPS=$nr_loops] if { [gdb_compile "${srcdir}/${subdir}/${srcfile}" "${binfile}" executable \ $opts] != "" } { untested "failed to compile" return -1 } # Compile the secondary program, which just sleeps. if { [gdb_compile "${srcdir}/${subdir}/${srcfile_sleep}" "${binfile_sleep}" executable \ {debug}] != "" } { untested "failed to compile" return -1 } # We exercise two methods of getting a second inferior to execute while the # first one vforks.
