Bug ID: 18600
Summary: After forking and threads spawning, gdb leaves newly
created threads stopped
Product: gdb
Version: HEAD
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: threads
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: simon.marchi at ericsson dot com
Target Milestone: ---
When a program forks and the fork childs start threads, some newly created
threads are left stopped by gdb. It's easy to reproduce with the following
example:
https://github.com/simark/gdb-fork-threads-test/
It worked with gdb 7.9, I bisected it and found that this commit introduces the
regression.

PR threads/18600: Threads left stopped after fork+thread spawn
When a program forks and another process start threads while gdb is
handling the fork event, newly created threads are left stuck stopped
by gdb, even though gdb presents them as "running", to the user.
This can be seen with the test added by this patch. The test has the
inferior fork a certain number of times and waits for all children to
exit. Each fork child spawns a number of threads that do nothing and
joins them immediately. Normally, the program should run unimpeded
(from the point of view of the user) and exit very quickly. Without
this fix, it doesn't because of some threads left stopped by gdb, so
inferior 1 never exits.
The program triggers when a new clone thread is found while inside the
linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps call in linux-thread-db.c:
linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps ();
ALL_LWPS (lp)
if (ptid_get_pid (lp->ptid) == pid)
thread_from_lwp (lp->ptid);
linux_unstop_all_lwps ();
Within linux_stop_and_wait_all_lwps, we reach
linux_handle_extended_wait with the "stopping" parameter set to 1, and
because of that we don't mark the new lwp as resumed. As consequence,
the subsequent resume_stopped_resumed_lwps, called from
linux_unstop_all_lwps, never resumes the new LWP.
There's lots of cruft in linux_handle_extended_wait that no longer
makes sense. On systems with CLONE events support, we don't rely on
libthread_db for thread listing anymore, so the code that preserves
stop_requested and the handling of last_resume_kind is all dead.
So the fix is to remove all that, and simply always mark the new LWP
as resumed, so that resume_stopped_resumed_lwps re-resumes it.

PR threads/18600: Inferiors left around after fork+thread spawn
The new gdb.threads/fork-plus-threads.exp test exposes one more
problem. When one types "info inferiors" after running the program,
one see's a couple inferior left still, while there should only be
inferior #1 left. E.g.:
(gdb) info inferiors
Num Description Executable
4 process 8393 /home/pedro/bugs/src/test
2 process 8388 /home/pedro/bugs/src/test
* 1 <null> /home/pedro/bugs/src/test
(gdb) info threads
Calling prune_inferiors() manually at this point (from a top gdb) does
not remove them, because they still have inf->pid != 0 (while they
shouldn't). This suggests that we never mourned those inferiors.
Enabling logs (master + previous patch) we see:
...

{
thread_dead = 1;
if (debug_linux_nat)
fprintf_unfiltered (gdb_stdlog, "WL: %s exited.\n",
target_pid_to_str (lp->ptid));
}
}
That was the leader thread reporting an exit, meaning the whole
process is gone. So the problem is that this code doesn't understand
that an WIFEXITED status of the leader LWP should be reported to
infrun as process exit.

gdbserver: move_out_of_jump_pad_callback misses switching current thread
While hacking on the fix for PR threads/18600 (Threads left stopped
after fork+thread spawn), I once saw its test (fork-plus-threads.exp)
FAIL against gdbserver because move_out_of_jump_pad_callback has a
gdb_breakpoint_here call, and the caller isn't making sure the current
thread points to the right thread. In the case I saw, the current
thread pointed to the wrong process, so gdb_breakpoint_here returned
the wrong answer. Unfortunately I didn't save logs. Still, seems
obvious enough and it should fix a potential occasional racy FAIL.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2015-08-06 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-low.c (move_out_of_jump_pad_callback): Temporarily switch
the current thread.

gdbserver: move_out_of_jump_pad_callback misses switching current thread
While hacking on the fix for PR threads/18600 (Threads left stopped
after fork+thread spawn), I once saw its test (fork-plus-threads.exp)
FAIL against gdbserver because move_out_of_jump_pad_callback has a
gdb_breakpoint_here call, and the caller isn't making sure the current
thread points to the right thread. In the case I saw, the current
thread pointed to the wrong process, so gdb_breakpoint_here returned
the wrong answer. Unfortunately I didn't save logs. Still, seems
obvious enough and it should fix a potential occasional racy FAIL.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
2015-08-06 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* linux-low.c (move_out_of_jump_pad_callback): Temporarily switch
the current thread.
