Subject: [PATCH 7/8] fix py-finish-breakpoint.exp with always-async
Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2013 16:45:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1375116324-32092-8-git-send-email-tromey@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1375116324-32092-1-git-send-email-tromey@redhat.com>
With target async enabled, py-finish-breakpoint.exp will trigger an
assertion failure.
The failure occurs because execute_command re-enters the event loop in
some circumstances, and in this case resets the sync_execution flag.
Then later gdb reaches this assertion in normal_stop:
gdb_assert (sync_execution || !target_can_async_p ());
execute_command has a comment explaining why it dispatches events:
/* If the interpreter is in sync mode (we're running a user
command's list, running command hooks or similars), and we
just ran a synchronous command that started the target, wait
for that command to end. */
However, the code did not follow this comment -- it didn't check to
see if the command started the target.
This patch fixes the problem by noting whether the target was
executing in sync_execution mode before running the command, and then
augmenting the condition to test this as well.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18.
* top.c (execute_command): Only dispatch events if command
started target.
