- Subject: [PATCH] Fix 8.2 regression in gdb.python/py-evthreads.exp w/ gdbserver (PR gdb/23379)
This commit fixes a 8.1->8.2 regression exposed by
gdb.python/py-evthreads.exp when testing with
--target_board=native-gdbserver.
gdb.log shows:
src/gdb/thread.c:93: internal-error: thread_info* inferior_thread(): Assertion `tp' failed.
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n) FAIL: gdb.python/py-evthreads.exp: run to breakpoint 1 (GDB internal error)
A backtrace shows (frames #2 and #10 highlighted) that the assertion
fails when GDB is setting up the connection to the remote target, in
non-stop mode:

So on frame #10, we're marking a newly-discovered thread as running,
and that causes the Python API to emit a gdb.ContinueEvent.
gdb.ContinueEvent is a gdb.ThreadEvent, and as such includes the event
thread as the "inferior_thread" attribute. The problem is that when
we get to frame #3/#4, we lost all references to the thread that is
being marked as running. create_continue_event_object assumes that it
is the current thread, which is not true in this case.
Fix this by passing down the right thread in
create_continue_event_object. Also remove
create_thread_event_object's default argument and have the only other
caller left pass down the right thread explicitly too.
gdb/ChangeLog:
yyyy-mm-dd Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
PR gdb/23379
* python/py-continueevent.c: Include "gdbthread.h".
(create_continue_event_object): Add intro comment. Add 'ptid'
parameter. Use it to find thread to pass to
create_thread_event_object.
(emit_continue_event): Pass PTID down to
create_continue_event_object.
* python/py-event.h (py_get_event_thread): Declare.
(create_thread_event_object): Remove default from 'thread'
parameter.
* python/py-stopevent.c (create_stop_event_object): Use
py_get_event_thread.
* python/py-threadevent.c (get_event_thread): Rename to ...
(py_get_event_thread): ... this, and make extern.
(create_thread_event_object): Assert that THREAD isn't null.
Don't find the event thread here.
