I think some tests that use gdb_test_stdio are still > flaky with gdbserver, but break.exp does not seem to use it. > It's flaky because of a weird problem I have while running GDBServer on ARM, sometimes out of nowhere I will get a SIGILL just running a program on GDBServer, clean of breakpoints or anything just loading the program in GDBServer and doing a continue can trigger it. See this thread: https://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2015-11/msg00030.html So it's not because the test itself is flaky but more the platform in general... Regards, Antoine
