gdbserver/Linux: unbreak thread event randomization
Wanting to make sure the new continue-pending-status.exp test tests both cases of threads 2 and 3 reporting an event, I added counters to the test, to make it FAIL if events for both threads aren't seen. Assuming a well behaved backend, and given a reasonable number of iterations, it should PASS. However, running that against GNU/Linux gdbserver, I found that surprisingly, that FAILed. GDBserver always reported the breakpoint hit for the same thread. Turns out that I broke gdbserver's thread event randomization recently, with git commit 582511be ([gdbserver] linux-low.c: better starvation avoidance, handle non-stop mode too). In that commit I missed that the thread structure also has a status_pending_p field... The end result was that count_events_callback always returns 0, and then if no thread is stepping, select_event_lwp always returns the event thread. IOW, no randomization is happening at all. Quite curious how all the other changes in that patch were sufficient to fix non-stop-fair-events.exp anyway even with that broken. Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver. gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog: 2015-03-19 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * linux-low.c (count_events_callback, select_event_lwp_callback): Use the lwp's status_pending_p field, not the thread's. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2015-03-19 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.threads/continue-pending-status.exp (saw_thread_2) (saw_thread_3): New globals. (top level): Increment them when an event for the corresponding thread is seen. (no thread starvation): New test.
