gdb: Handle W and X remote packets without giving a warning
In this commit: commit 24ed6739b699f329c2c45aedee5f8c7d2f54e493 Date: Thu Jan 30 14:35:40 2020 +0000 gdb/remote: Restore support for 'S' stop reply packet A regression was introduced such that the W and X packets would give a warning in some cases. The warning was: warning: multi-threaded target stopped without sending a thread-id, using first non-exited thread This problem would arise when: 1. The multi-process extensions to the remote protocol were not being used, and 2. The inferior has multiple threads. In this case when the W (or X) packet arrives the ptid of the stop_reply is set to null_ptid, then when we arrive in process_stop_reply GDB spots that we have multiple non-exited theads, but the stop event didn't specify a thread-id. The problem with this is that the W (and X) packets are actually process wide events, they apply to all threads. So not specifying a thread-id is not a problem, in fact, the best these packets allow is for the remote to specify a process-id, not a thread-id. If we look at how the W (and X) packets deal with a specified process-id, then what happens is GDB sets to stop_reply ptid to a value which indicates all threads in the process, this is done by creating a value `ptid_t (pid)`, which sets the pid field of the ptid_t, but leaves the tid field as 0, indicating all threads. So, this commit does the same thing for the case where there is not process-id specified. In process_stop_reply we not distinguish between stop events that apply to all threads, and those that apply to only one. If the stop event applies to only one thread then we treat it as before. If, however, the stop event applies to all threads, then we find the first non-exited thread, and use the pid from this thread to create a `ptid_t (pid)` value. If the target has multiple inferiors, and receives a process wide event without specifying a process-id GDB now gives this warning: warning: multi-inferior target stopped without sending a process-id, using first non-exited inferior gdb/ChangeLog: * remote.c (remote_target::process_stop_reply): Handle events for all threads differently. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.server/exit-multiple-threads.c: New file. * gdb.server/exit-multiple-threads.exp: New file.
