- Subject: [patch] testsuite: Test readline-6.2 "ask" regression
Hi,
this problem does not affect default FSF GDB build as it is using bundled
readline-5.1. But with system readline-6.2 and build using:
--with-system-readline use installed readline library
GDB will no longer ask about displaying too many symbols and dumps them all
immediately.
PASS:
$ gdb gdb
(gdb) p <tab><tab>
Display all 21482 possibilities? (y or n)_
FAIL:
$ gdb gdb
(gdb) p <tab><tab>
Display all 22129 possibilities? (y or n)
../../bfd/aout-target.h cs_to_section
../../bfd/aout32.c ctime
<screens and screens of dumps without any question>
This regression will soon start affecting distros:
FSF GDB HEAD - PASS - using bundled readline-5.1
fedora-15 - FAIL - using system readline-6.2
fedora-14 - PASS - using system readline-6.1
debian-6.0 - PASS - using system readline-6.1
kubuntu-10.10 - PASS - using system readline-6.1
I have asked about it on readline ml:
Re: [Bug-readline] callback mode pager disable status
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2011-04/msg00012.html
The suggested workaround (in fact the readline-5.1 code state) going to patch
into the proposed FSF GDB bundled readline-6.2. Distros then can stop using
--with-system-readline to still feature recent and system matching readline
until readline-7.0 gets released.
This regression has been so far caught only with system debug infos installed:
-PASS: gdb.base/completion.exp: complete (2) 'p no_var_named_this-'
-PASS: gdb.base/completion.exp: complete 'p values[0].a'
-PASS: gdb.base/completion.exp: complete 'p values[0] . a'
-PASS: gdb.base/completion.exp: complete 'p &values[0] -> a'
-PASS: gdb.base/completion.exp: copmletion of field in anonymous union
+FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: (timeout) complete (2) 'p no_var_named_this-'
+FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: (timeout) complete 'p values[0].a' 2
+FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: (timeout) complete 'p values[0] . a' 2
+FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: (timeout) complete 'p &values[0] -> a' 2
+FAIL: gdb.base/completion.exp: copmletion of field in anonymous union
I will check it in with no comments.
Thanks,
Jan
