Subject: [PATCHv2 3/6] gdb: add asserts in target.c for target_async_permitted
Date: Wed, 24 Nov 2021 12:22:06 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3a174872995221e716715f74fc925d8140950398.1637756330.git.aburgess@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1637756330.git.aburgess@redhat.com>
The target_async_permitted flag allows a user to override whether a
target can act in async mode or not. In previous commits I have moved
the checking of this flag out of the various ::can_async_p methods and
into the common target.c code.
In this commit I will add some additional assertions into
target_is_async_p and target_async. The rules these assertions are
checking are:
1. A target that returns false for target_can_async_p should never
become "async enabled", and so ::is_async_p should always return
false. This is being checked in target_is_async_p.
2. GDB should never try to enable async mode for a target that
returns false for target_can_async_p, this is checked in
target_async.
There are a few places where we call the ::is_async_p method directly,
in these cases we will obviously not pass through the assert in
target_is_async_p, however, there are also plenty of places where we
do call target_is_async_p so if GDB starts to misbehave we should
catch it quickly enough.
There should be no user visible changes after this commit.
