Subject: [PATCH v2] gdb: Remove redundant clear_proceed_status() call
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2026 15:44:15 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260617124524.6160-1-claudiu.zissulescu-ianculescu@amd.com> (raw)
This patch fixes a Windows issue with "-target-attach <pid>", where
"running" is emitted instead of "done". The "done" message should be
synchronous for "-target-attach", but "mi_proceeded" variable is
incorrectly set to "1" when clear_proceed_status(0, true) is
called. As a result, "mi_interp::on_about_to_proceed" sets mi_proceed
to 1, and later "mi_interp::on_resume" emits "running" instead of
"done".
Remove redundant clear_proceed_status(0) call (the notify argument is
set to true by default). The init_wait_for_inferior(), which runs on
the very next line, already calls clear_proceed_status (0, false). A
new test is added too.
What is new:
- Improved commit message
- Added a mi test for showing the issue in Windows hosts.
