The end goal is that it should be possible to run each .exp file in parallel. This project has many parts; and the full patch is not quite finished (and is also very large). I wanted to start sending out some of the more straightforward changes, mostly so that I wouldn't have to constantly rebase them. I think these changes are reasonable in their own right. This series holds all the "easy" conversions from gdb.base. This is just straightforward changes to use standard_testfile and standard_output_file, plus also prepare_for_testing or clean_restart as well. This series fixes a few spots where .exp files did not interact well. For example, cases where the tests used the same executable name. This regression tests cleanly; however since some file names changed there are a few minor output changes: Missing tests: gdb.base/corefile.exp: args: -core=coremaker.core: PASS gdb.base/corefile.exp: args: execfile -core=coremaker.core: PASS gdb.base/info-proc.exp: core break.gcore: PASS New tests: gdb.base/corefile.exp: args: -core=corefile.core: PASS gdb.base/corefile.exp: args: execfile -core=corefile.core: PASS gdb.base/default.exp: set the history filename: PASS gdb.base/info-proc.exp: core info-proc.gcore: PASS I don't consider this to be a problem. I split the patch up into 7 roughly equal-sized pieces based on file name. After this series, gdb.base is still not parallel-clean. There are some lurking "trickier" cases I omitted from this series, as they depend on new testsuite/lib infrastructure. I plan to work through all the easy/obvious bits first, before starting to upstream that stuff. Tom
