            Bug ID: 29796
           Summary: gdbserver should imply --once if connected via stdio
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: server

  Target Milestone: ---

(gdb) target extended-remote | gdbserver --multi -
Remote debugging using | gdbserver --multi -
Remote debugging using stdio
(gdb) quit
* hang for 5 seconds *

You get the hang plus the PIPE_CLOSE_TIMEOUT timeout, because gdbserver han=
gs
while writing:

  "Remote side has terminated connection.  GDBserver will reopen the
connection.\n"

to stderr.  Like so:

(gdb) bt
#0  0x00007fa124ff9077 in __GI___libc_write (fd=3D2, buf=3D0x560d25e89158,

If you pass --once to gdbserver, then the hang disappears, since gdbserver
exits as soon as the connection closes:

(gdb) target extended-remote | gdbserver --once --multi -
Remote debugging using | ../gdbserver/gdbserver --once --multi -
Remote debugging using stdio
(gdb) q
$ # got back the shell prompt immediately.


I'm thinking that gdbserver should auto-imply --once when connected via std=
io.
