With a following patch, find_thread_ptid will first find the inferior
for the passed-in ptid, using find_inferior_pid, and then look for the
thread in that inferior's thread list. If we pass down null_ptid to
find_thread_ptid then that means we'll end up passing 0 to
find_inferior_pid, which hits this assertion:
> struct inferior *
> find_inferior_pid (int pid)
> {
> struct inferior *inf;
>
> /* Looking for inferior pid == 0 is always wrong, and indicative of
> a bug somewhere else. There may be more than one with pid == 0,
> for instance. */
> gdb_assert (pid != 0);
This patch prepares for the change, by avoiding passing down null_ptid
to find_thread_ptid or to functions that naturally use it, such as the
target_pid_to_str call in inferior.c:add_inferior. In that latter
case, the patch changes GDB output,
from:
(gdb) add-inferior
[New inferior 2 (process 0)]
to:
(gdb) add-inferior
[New inferior 2]
which seems like a good change to me. It might not even make sense to
talk about "process" for the current target, for example.
The python_on_normal_stop change ends up avoiding looking up the
same thread twice (inferior_thread also does a look up).
gdb/ChangeLog:
2018-11-22 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* cli/cli-interp.c (cli_on_user_selected_context_changed): Use
inferior_thread instead of find_thread_ptid, and only when
inferior_ptid is not null_ptid.
* inferior.c (add_inferior): Don't include target_pid_to_str
output when the inferior is not started.
* python/py-inferior.c (python_on_normal_stop): Don't use
find_thread_ptid.
(tui_on_user_selected_context_changed): Use inferior_thread
instead of find_thread_ptid, and only when inferior_ptid is not
null_ptid.
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
