Subject: [PATCH 3/7] gdb/testsuite: add -inferior-args option to runto
Date: Wed, 6 May 2026 16:27:51 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260506202804.1681886-4-simon.marchi@polymtl.ca> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260506202804.1681886-1-simon.marchi@polymtl.ca>
From: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@polymtl.ca>
Add a new -inferior-args option to proc runto, to allow passing
arguments to the test program. Its value is forwarded to gdb_run_cmd,
which does the right thing, including with the native-gdbserver board,
where arguments need to be passed on the gdbserver command line.
The option is named -inferior-args (rather than the shorter -args)
because parse_args sets a variable in the caller's scope using the
option name. Naming it "-args" would clash with the "args" parameter.
Subsequent patches use this new option.
