- Subject: [patch] Fix `shell' command for async (PR 12850)
Hi,
this was completely debugged by Pedro so just wrote it and posted.
I mentioned+filed this problem at:
Re: Sending signal to inferior program.
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2011-06/msg00036.html
procfs.c contains such fix but #if0-ed, left it as is:
/* FIXME: should we use waitpid to make sure we get the right event?
Should we check the returned event? */
{
#if 0
int status, ret;
ret = waitpid (pi->pid, &status, 0);
#else
wait (NULL);
#endif
proc-api.c also contains dangerous wait() call but both are for procfs
platforms.
No regressions on {x86_64,x86_64-m32,i686}-fedora15-linux-gnu. I have not
regression tested the modified PPC* file. The testcase can have false PASS
(with buggy GDB) but I do not see how to avoid it.
I will check it in with no comments.
Thanks,
Jan
