Running catch-syscall.exp against a gdbserver that actually supports
it, we get:

That "break exit" + "continue" comes from:

The native-gdbserver.exp board, used to test against gdbserver in
"target remote" mode, triggers that case ($use_gdb_stub is true). So
gdb_continue_to_end doesn't work for catch-syscall.exp as here we
catch the exit_group and continue from that, expecting to see a real
program exit. I was about to post a patch that changes
catch-syscall.exp to call a new function that just always does what
gdb_continue_to_end does in the !$use_gdb_stub case. But, since
GDBserver doesn't really need this, in the end I thought it better to
teach the testsuite that there are stubs that know how to report
program exits, by adding a new "exit_is_reliable" board variable that
then gdb_continue_to_end checks.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

* README (Board Settings): Document "exit_is_reliable".
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_continue_to_end): Check whether the board says
running to exit reliably reports program exits.
* boards/native-gdbserver.exp: Set exit_is_reliable in the board
info.
* boards/native-stdio-gdbserver.exp: Likewise.
This fixes dwz.exp on 32-bit targets. It does so by introducing a new
"default" setting for the address size in the DWARF assembler.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18.
I also ran the gdb.dwarf2 tests on an x86 machine (gcc45).
* lib/dwarf.exp (cu, tu): Handle addr_size of "default". Change
default addr_size.
* lib/gdb.exp (is_64_target): New gdb_caching_proc.
I noticed that skip_btrace_tests is a classic "caching proc" that I
missed when I added gdb_caching_proc. This patch converts it.
Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 18.
* lib/gdb.exp (skip_btrace_tests): Use gdb_caching_proc and
standard_temp_file.
This finishes making gdb.dwarf2 parallel-safe.
To do this, this patch introduces a new gdb_remote_download proc, that
works somewhat differently in the one specific case where it matters:
for a copy to "host", if no destination was given, and the host is not
actually remote, then standard_output_file is used. In parallel mode
this guarantees that the resulting file will end up in a parallel-safe
location.
Tested on x86-64 Fedora 18.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-basic.exp: Use gdb_remote_download.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-compressed.exp: Use gdb_remote_download.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-intercu.exp: Use gdb_remote_download.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-intermix.exp: Use gdb_remote_download.
* gdb.dwarf2/dw2-producer.exp: Use gdb_remote_download.
* gdb.dwarf2/mac-fileno.exp: Use gdb_remote_download.
* lib/gdb.exp (gdb_remote_download): New proc.
This introduces parallel mode for the test suite.
It doesn't fully work yet in the sense that if you do a fully parallel
run, you will encounter some file-name clashes, but this has to start
somewhere, and it seemed best to add some infrastructure now, so that
you can follow along and test subsequent patches if you care to.
This patch has two parts.
First, it checks for the GDB_PARALLEL variable. If this is set (say,
on the runtest command line), then the test suite assumes "parallel
mode". In this mode, files are put into a subdirectory named after
the test. That is, for DIR/TEST.exp, the outputs are put into
./outputs/DIR/TEST/.
This first part has various follow-on changes coming in subsequent
patches. This is why the code in this patch also makes "temp" and
"cache" directories.
Second, this adds an "inotify" mode. If you have the inotifywait
command (part of inotify-tools), you can set the GDB_INOTIFY variable.
This will tell the test suite to watch for changes outside of the
allowed output directories.
This mode is useful for debugging the test suite, as it issues a
report whenever a possibly parallel-unsafe file open is done.

In the fully parallel mode, each .exp file can be run in parallel (at
least conceptually -- the actual split may not be so severe). This
means that procs that compute a result and cache it are not going to
function very well. The test they run will be invoked over and over.
This patch introduces a generic caching mechanism and changes various
result-caching procs to use it. This is a cleanup to introduce the
basic change; the results aren't written to disk yet.
A caching proc is defined using gdb_caching_proc, which works like
"proc", except that it caches the result of the body.
* lib/cache.exp: New file.
* lib/cell.exp (skip_cell_tests): Use gdb_caching_proc.

(gdb_skip_xml_test): Use gdb_caching_proc.
* lib/opencl.exp (skip_opencl_tests): Use gdb_caching_proc.
This adds a new helper proc, standard_temp_file. This proc takes a
file name and returns a possibly-qualified form. This lets us make
parallel runs use a directory other than ".", which helps the inotify
mode.
This initial patch introduces the proc and changes a few spots to use
it.
* lib/gdb.exp (standard_temp_file): New proc.
(support_complex_tests, is_ilp32_target, is_lp64_target)
(is_amd64_regs_target, skip_altivec_tests, skip_vsx_tests): Use

A few spots in lib make output files, either in "." or in

When I tried running the btrace tests, I noticed something odd in the gdb.log file:
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/btrace22343.x
Breakpoint 1, main () at /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/btrace22343.c:1
1 /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/btrace22343.c: No such file or directory.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
(gdb) record btrace
Target does not support branch tracing.
(gdb) testcase ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.btrace/enable.exp completed in 0 seconds
I knew that the btrace tests on my machine weren't supposed to work,
but still, that error made me wonder if the test had something broken,
and waste a few minutes looking up where that is coming from.
The issue is that the btrace detection deletes the source file right
after compiling it, and before GDB has a chance to open it. It's
really harmless, but I'd rather spare others from going through the
same exercise.
We now get the regular:
(gdb) run
