Subject: [PATCH] gdb/testsuite: Fix libc_has_debug_info when there's no libc
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2024 23:52:51 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240426025251.1679310-1-thiago.bauermann@linaro.org> (raw)

Bernd reported a Tcl error when running gdb.base/relativedebug.exp with
a riscv-unknown-elf target with newlib (so there is no libc) because of
commit f5ef12c3f1af ("gdb/testsuite: Add libc_has_debug_info require
helper"):

    (file "/home/ed/gnu/binutils-build-riscv64/gdb/testsuite/../../../binutils-gdb/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/relativedebug.exp" line 16)

The problem is that when there's no libc.so in the inferior,
"info sharedlibrary libc.so" responds with an output that doesn't match
any of the patterns provided in libc_has_debug_info so gdb_test_multiple
matches an internal pattern for the GDB prompt and thus the
$libc_has_debug_info variable doesn't get set in the default pattern.

Fix by:

- always defining libc_has_debug_info and message with a default
  value,
- adding a pattern for the case where there's no libc.so in the
  inferior, and
- removing the default pattern, which doesn't serve a purpose anymore.

Also, remove a couple of verbose messages which aren't really useful
because they're redundant with the $message variable.
