Make native gdbserver boards no longer be "remote" (in DejaGnu terms)
This commit finally clears the "isremote" flag in the native-gdbserver and native-stdio-gdbserver boards. The goal is to make all "native" boards be considered not remote in DejaGnu terms, like the native-extended-gdbserver board is too. DejaGnu automatically considers boards remote if their names don't match the local hostname. That means that native-gdbserver and native-extended-gdbserver are considered remote by default by DejaGnu, even though they run locally. native-extended-gdbserver, however, overrides its isremote flag to force it to be not remote. So we are in that weird state where native-gdbserver is considered remote, and native-extended-gdbserver is considered not remote. A recent set of commits fixed all the problems (and some more) exposed by testing with --target_board=native-gdbserver and --target_board=native-stdio-gdbserver with isremote forced off on x86-64 GNU/Linux. I believe we're good to go now. The native-stdio-gdbserver.exp/remote-stdio-gdbserver.exp boards required deep non-obvious modifications unfortunately... The problem is that if a board is not remote, then DejaGnu doesn't call ${board}_spawn / ${board}_exec at all, and the native-stdio-gdbserver.exp board relies on those procedures being called. To fix that, this commit redesigns how the stdio boards hook into the testing framework to spawn gdbserver. IMO, this is a good change anyway, because the way its done currently is a bit of a hack, and the result turns out to be simpler, even. With this commit, they now no longer load the "gdbserver" generic config, and hook at the mi_gdb_target_load/gdb_reload level instead, making them more like traditional board files. To share code between native-stdio-gdbserver.exp and remote-stdio-gdbserver.exp, a new shared stdio-gdbserver-base.exp file is created. Instead of having each native board clear isremote manually, boards source the new "local-board.exp" file. This also adds a new section to testsuite/README file discussing local/remote/native, so that we can easily refer to it. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2017-10-16 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@polymtl.ca> * README (Local vs Remote vs Native): New section. * boards/local-board.exp: New file, with bits factored out from ... * boards/native-extended-gdbserver.exp: ... here.
