Linux: make target_is_async_p return false when async is off
linux_nat_is_async_p currently always returns true, even when the target is _not_ async. That confuses gdb_readline_wrapper/gdb_readline_wrapper_cleanup, which force-disables target-async while the secondary prompt is active. As a result, when gdb_readline_wrapper returns, the target is left async, even through it was sync to begin with. That can result in weird bugs, like the one the test added by this commit exposes. Ref: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-01/msg00592.html gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-01-23 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * linux-nat.c (linux_is_async_p): New macro. (linux_nat_is_async_p): (linux_nat_terminal_inferior): Check whether the target can async instead of whether it is already async. (linux_nat_terminal_ours): Don't check whether the target is async. (linux_async_pipe): Use linux_is_async_p. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2015-01-23 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * gdb.threads/continue-pending-after-query.c: New file. * gdb.threads/continue-pending-after-query.exp: New file.

+# Regression test for a bug that would go like this:
+#
+# - Run to a breakpoint that is hit by two threads (A and B)
+# simultaneously.
+#
+# - One of the breakpoint hits is processed (e.g., thread A) and
+# causes a user-visible stop. The other (thread B) is left pending.
+#
+# - The user deletes the breakpoint with "del", which causes a
+# confirmation query.
+#
+# - By mistake, that would result in the target being left with async
+# enabled, even though it wasn't to begin with.
+#
+# - GDB reacts to target async enablement by polling for target
+# events. As no thread is resumed the target replies
+# TARGET_WAITKIND_NO_RESUMED.
+#
+# - The user continues the program, expecting it to exit. The thread
+# that has an event pending (thread B) is not really resumed.
+#
+# - But, nothing signals the event loop that there's a pending event
+# waiting to be collected for thread B, so that event is never
+# processed, thread B is never resumed and the program never exits.
