gdb/testsuite: unset XDG_CONFIG_HOME
Since this commit: commit 64aaad6349d2b2c45063a5383f877ce9a3a0c354 Date: Fri Sep 25 14:50:56 2020 +0100 gdb: use get_standard_config_dir when looking for .gdbinit GDB has been checking for ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/gdb/gdbinit on startup. Most tests pass -nx to GDB to block loading of gdbinit files, but there are a few tests (e.g. gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp) that don't use -nx and instead setup a fake HOME directory containing a gdbinit file. However, since the above commit, if XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set then once -nx is no longer being passed GDB will load any gdbinit file it finds in that directory, which could cause the test to fail. As a concrete example: $ mkdir -p fake_xdg_config_home/gdb/ $ cat <<EOF >fake_xdg_config_home/gdb/gdbinit echo goodbye\n quit EOF $ export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$PWD/fake_xdg_config_home $ make check-gdb TESTS="gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp" Should result in the test failing. The solution I propose is to unset XDG_CONFIG_HOME in default_gdb_init, we already unset a bunch of environment variables in this proc. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * lib/gdb.exp (default_gdb_init): Unset XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
