This commit merges both the registers and $_siginfo "thread running/executing" checks into a single function. Accessing $_siginfo from a "catch signal" breakpoint condition doesn't work. The condition always fails with "Selected thread is running": (gdb) catch signal Catchpoint 3 (standard signals) (gdb) condition $bpnum $_siginfo.si_signo == 5 (gdb) continue Continuing. Error in testing breakpoint condition: Selected thread is running. Catchpoint 3 (signal SIGUSR1), 0x0000003615e35877 in __GI_raise (sig=10) at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:56 56 return INLINE_SYSCALL (tgkill, 3, pid, selftid, sig); (gdb) When accessing the $_siginfo object, we check whether the thread is marked running (external/public) state and refuse the access if so. This is so "print $_siginfo" at the prompt fails nicelly when the current thread is running. While evaluating breakpoint conditionals, we haven't decided yet whether the thread is going to stop, so is_running still returns true, and we thus always error out. Evaluating an expression that requires registers access is really conceptually the same -- we could think of $_siginfo as a pseudo register. However, in that case we check whether the thread is marked executing (internal/private state), not running (external/public state). Changing the $_siginfo validation to check is_executing as well fixes the bug in question. Note that checking is_executing is not fully correct, not even for registers. See PR 19389. However, I think this is the lesser of two evils and ends up as an improvement. We at least now have a single place to fix.

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.
