2014-04-25PR server/16255: gdbserver cannot attach to a second inferior that is ↵Pedro Alves1-1/+1
multi-threaded. On Linux, we need to explicitly ptrace attach to all lwps of a process. Because GDB might not be connected yet when an attach is requested, and thus it may not be possible to activate thread_db, as that requires access to symbols (IOW, gdbserver --attach), a while ago we make linux_attach loop over the lwps as listed by /proc/PID/task to find the lwps to attach to. linux_attach_lwp_1 has: ... if (initial) /* If lwp is the tgid, we handle adding existing threads later. Otherwise we just add lwp without bothering about any other threads. */ ptid = ptid_build (lwpid, lwpid, 0); else { /* Note that extracting the pid from the current inferior is safe, since we're always called in the context of the same process as this new thread. */ int pid = pid_of (current_inferior); ptid = ptid_build (pid, lwpid, 0); } That "safe" comment referred to linux_attach_lwp being called by thread-db.c. But this was clearly missed when a new call to linux_attach_lwp_1 was added to linux_attach. As a result, current_inferior will be set to some random process, and non-initial lwps of the second inferior get assigned the pid of the wrong inferior. E.g., in the case of attaching to two inferiors, for the second inferior (and so on), non-initial lwps of the second inferior get assigned the pid of the first inferior. This doesn't trigger on the first inferior, when current_inferior is NULL, add_thread switches the current inferior to the newly added thread. Rather than making linux_attach switch current_inferior temporarily (thus avoiding further reliance on global state), or making linux_attach_lwp_1 get the tgid from /proc, which add extra syscalls, and will be wrong in case of the user having originally attached directly to a non-tgid lwp, and then that lwp spawning new clones (the ptid.pid field of further new clones should be the same as the original lwp's pid, which is not the tgid), we note that callers of linux_attach_lwp/linux_attach_lwp_1 always have the right pid handy already, so they can pass it down along with the lwpid. The only other reason for the "initial" parameter is to error out instead of warn in case of attach failure, when we're first attaching to a process. There are only three callers of linux_attach_lwp/linux_attach_lwp_1, and each wants to print a different warn/error string, so we can just move the error/warn out of linux_attach_lwp_1 to the callers, thus getting rid of the "initial" parameter. There really nothing gdbserver-specific about attaching to two threaded processes, so this adds a new test under gdb.multi/. The test passes cleanly against the native GNU/Linux target, but fails/triggers the bug against GDBserver (before the patch), with the native-extended-remote board (as plain remote doesn't support multi-process). Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, with the native-extended-gdbserver board. gdb/gdbserver/ 2014-04-25 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> PR server/16255 * linux-low.c (linux_attach_fail_reason_string): New function.
