Hi All,
This is patch to refactor circ.exp. I noticed that it was quitting
early as gdb_target_supports_trace was failing. There were some other
issues too. After the changes, it is running to completion. How does
it look?
One test is failing that probably shows a defect. Following session,
which is edited for clarity, shows the problem. When there is not
enough buffer left (3rd frame onward), target does not stop the trace.
It continues but only uses 6 bytes for the frame.
(gdb) set trace-buffer-size 200
(gdb) tstart
(gdb) c
...
(gdb) tstatus
Collected 1 trace frames.
Trace buffer has 131 bytes of 200 bytes free (34% full).

* gdb.trace/circ.exp: (run_trace_experiment): Test
setup_tracepoints and 'break end' in it.
(trace_buffer_normal): Refactor it to...
(support_trace_packet). ..this.
(gdb_trace_circular_tests): Remove. Move tests to...
(top level): ... here. Call 'runto_main' before checking for
trace support. Call 'support_trace_packets' to check the
support for QTBuffer:size and QTBuffer:circular.
