Make follow_fork not rely on get_last_target_status
Currently, if
- you're in all-stop mode,
- the inferior last stopped because of a fork catchpoint,
when you next resume the program, gdb checks whether it had last
stopped for a fork/vfork, and if so,
a) if the current thread is the one that forked, gdb follows the
parent/child, depending on "set follow-fork" mode.
b) if the current thread is some other thread (because you switched
threads meanwhile), gdb switches back to that thread, gdb follows
the parent/child, and stops the resumption command.
There's a problem in b), however -- if you have "set schedule-multiple
off", which is the default, or "set scheduler-locking on", gdb will
still switch back to the forking thread, even if you didn't want to
resume it. For example, with:
(gdb) catch fork
(gdb) c
* thread 1 stops for fork
(gdb) thread 2
(gdb) set scheduler-locking on
(gdb) c
gdb switches back to thread 1, and follows the fork.
Or with:
(gdb) add-inferior -exec prog
(gdb) inferior 2
(gdb) start
(gdb) inferior 1
(gdb) catch fork
(gdb) c
* thread 1.1 stops for fork
(gdb) inferior 2
(gdb) set schedule-multiple off # this is the default
(gdb) c
gdb switches back to thread 1.1, and follows the fork.
Another issue is that, because follow_fork relies on
get_last_target_status to find the thread that has a pending fork, it
is possible to confuse it. For example, "run" or "start" call
init_wait_for_inferior, which clears the last target status, so this:
(gdb) catch fork
(gdb) c
* thread 1 stops for fork
(gdb) add-inferior -exec prog
(gdb) inferior 2
(gdb) start
(gdb) set follow-fork child
(gdb) inferior 1
(gdb) n
... does not follow to the fork child of inferior 1, because the
get_last_target_status call in follow_fork doesn't return a
TARGET_WAITKIND_FORKED. Thanks to Simon for this example.
All of the above are fixed by this patch. It changes follow_fork to
not look at get_last_target_status, but to instead iterate over the
set of threads that the user is resuming, and find the one that has a
pending_follow kind of fork/vfork.
gdb.base/foll-fork.exp is augmented to exercise the last "start"
scenario described above. The other cases will be exercised in the
testcase added by the following patch.
