../../../git/gdb/target.c:3248: internal-error: Can't determine the current address space of thread Thread 16981
When start remote, the call chain is as follows,
remote_start_remote
add_current_inferior_and_thread <--[1]
...
start_remote
wait_for_inferior
remote_wait_as
process_stop_reply
get_thread_arch_regcache <--[2]
remote_notice_new_inferior <--[3]
GDB sends packet "qC" in [1] and adds the thread/inferior if the remote
stubs understands "qC". In [2], GDB looks for the inferior to build a
regcache, and notices a new inferior in [3]. As we can see, GDB assumes
that the inferior can be found in [2]. Once the remote stub doesn't
support "qC", GDB can't look for the inferior in [2], and emits an
internal error.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Right after the initial connection, we query the target for its state,
with the ? packet. We store the resulting wait status / stop reply
aside, and query the target for the current thread, using qC, which
fails, so we fake a ptid for the target's thread. We then later,
after the initial setup, end up consuming that set-aside wait status,
parsing the T stop reply, which contains a "thread" "register" (which
was the thread the target would have replied to qC). We get into
trouble because the ptid in that stop reply doesn't match our faked up
ptid in the initial setup, although the target threads are the same...
So we had the T stop reply handy all along. We might as well extract
the thread's ptid from it, and avoid all the resulting issues.
qC is also used after vRun, in order to discover the new process'es
main thread. But, vRun's reply is also a wait status, just like
'?''s, which is quite convenient.
This means that if we have a "Txx thread: ptid" reply, then we don't
really need qC. The patch makes GDB look in the T reply first, and if
not found, try with qC. The packet handling seems to have been added
in gdb-4.18 (1999), and I see that in that same release, "Txx thread:
ptid" didn't exist yet, which probably explains why nobody though of
doing this before.
Regression tested against a gdbserver with qC disabled (and then
enabled), on x86_64 Fedora 17.

known by gdb. Such monitor commands can take a long time
to execute. An example of this is the "leak_search" monitor
command implemented in the Valgrind gdbserver.
Currently, gdb will timeout on such a monitor command.
The remote stub however will continue to execute the
command and send the output later. Gdb and the remote
stub can then be desynchronised : gdb sends a packet,
and the reply read from the stub is a previous packet.
The change committed uses getpkt_sane to detect a timeout.
In this case, it continues the loop.
A QUIT; is inserted in the loop to allow the user
to stop handling the current command. possibly
still creating a desynchronisation between gdb and the stub
but that will be upon user request.
