[gdb/python] Handle failure to initialize without exiting
I tried out making python initialization fail by passing an incorrect PYTHONHOME, and got: ... $ PYTHONHOME=foo ./gdb.sh -q Python path configuration: PYTHONHOME = 'foo' ... Python initialization failed: \ failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding Python not initialized $ ... The relevant part of the code is: ... static void gdbpy_initialize (const struct extension_language_defn *extlang) { if (!do_start_initialization () && py_isinitialized && PyErr_Occurred ()) gdbpy_print_stack (); gdbpy_enter enter_py; ... What happens is: - gdbpy_enter::gdbpy_enter () is called, where we run into: 'if (!gdb_python_initialized) error (_("Python not initialized"));' - the error propagates to gdb's toplevel - gdb print the error and exits. It seems unnecesssary that we exit gdb. We could continue the session without python support. Fix this by: - bailing out of gdbpy_initialize if !do_start_initialization - bailing out of finalize_python if !gdb_python_initialized This gets us instead: ... $ PYTHONHOME=foo gdb -q Python path configuration: PYTHONHOME = 'foo' ... Python initialization failed: \ failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding (gdb) python print (1) Python not initialized (gdb) ... Tested on aarch64-linux.
