If scheduler-locking is in effect, like e.g., with "set scheduler-locking on", and you step over a function that spawns a new thread, the new thread is allowed to run free, at least until some event is hit, at which point, whether the new thread is re-resumed depends on a number of seemingly random factors. E.g., if the target is all-stop, and the parent thread hits a breakpoint, and gdb decides the breakpoint isn't interesting to report to the user, then the parent thread is resumed, but the new thread is left stopped. I think that letting the new threads run with scheduler-locking enabled is a defect. This commit fixes that, making use of the new clone events on Linux, and of target_thread_events() on targets where new threads have no connection to the thread that spawned them. Testcase and documentation changes included. Approved-By: Eli Zaretskii <eliz@gnu.org> Change-Id: Ie12140138b37534b7fc1d904da34f0f174aa11ce
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.
