Subject: [patch, rfa] tweak to defaulted_query logic to fix gdb.mi test errors
Date: Tue, 06 Sep 2016 18:57:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <57CF117B.5040106@codesourcery.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1105 bytes --]
This patch moves the check for deprecated_query_hook before
input-not-from-terminal check in defaulted_query, instead of after it.
Presently, the only thing that uses deprecated_query_hook is the MI
backend, which uses it to suppress the question entirely, so that the
current behavior leads to the situation where nothing is printed when
the input is a terminal but there is a message otherwise, which is
somewhat odd.
The specific problem this patch solves is a testing issue with
gdbserver. mi_gdb_target_load says:
mi_gdb_test "kill" ".*" ""
and if the test harness is not running GDB from a terminal we get:
Expecting: ^(kill[
]+)?(.*[
]+[(]gdb[)]
[ ]*)
kill
&"kill\n"
~"Kill the program being debugged? (y or n) [answered Y; input not from
terminal]\n"
ERROR: Got interactive prompt.
because it is tripping over the "\\(y or n\\) " pattern in mi_gdb_test.
Of course mi_gdb_test could be fixed to recognize the "input not from
terminal" message as valid, but I don't think that's the intended MI
behavior. I think this is a bug in GDB, not the testsuite.
OK to commit?
