testsuite: Don't use expect_background to reap gdbserver
I adjusted a test to do 'expect -i $server_spawn_id -re ...', and saw really strange behavior. Whether that expect would work, depended on whether GDB would also send output and the same expect matched it too (on $gdb_spawn_id). I was perplexed until I noticed that gdbserver_spawn spawns gdbserver and then uses expect_background to reap gdbserver. That expect_background conflicts/races with any "expect -i $server_spawn_id" done anywhere else in parallel... In order to make it possible for tests to read inferior I/O out of $server_spawn_id, we to get rid of that expect_background. This patch makes us instead reap gdbserver's spawn id when GDB exits. If GDB is still around, this gives a chance for gdbserver to exit cleanly. The current code in gdb_finish uses "kill", but that doesn't work with extended-remote (gdbserver doesn't exit). We now use "monitor exit" instead which works in both remote and extended-remote modes. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2015-04-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * lib/gdb.exp (gdb_finish): Delete persistent gdbserver handling. * lib/gdbserver-support.exp (gdbserver_start): Make $server_spawn_id global. (gdbserver_start): Don't wait for gdbserver's spawn id with expect_background. (close_gdbserver): New procedure. (gdb_exit): Rename the default version and reimplement.
