            Bug ID: 31065
           Summary: Internal errors when using checkpoints with multiple
                    inferiors
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: kevinb at redhat dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

I'm seeing some problems when (attempting to) use checkpoints with multiple
inferiors. I'll describe two such cases below...

Build gdb and make your CWD the gdb directory containing the gdb executable. 
Then run the following test:

make check TESTS=gdb.multi/base.exp

This test should have all passes; I see 27 passes when I do it.  I'll use the
programs associated with this test to demonstrate some bugs.

Now, start GDB as follows:

./gdb -q -iex 'set debuginfod enabled off'

Turning debuginfod off (or on) prevents GDB from asking the question about
using debuginfod, allowing us to paste the following commands to GDB all at
once.

Run the following commands within the GDB session:

file testsuite/outputs/gdb.multi/base/hello
start
add-inferior -exec testsuite/outputs/gdb.multi/base/goodbye
inferior 2
start
checkpoint
step
inferior 1
detach

Upon execution of the detach command, an internal error will occur.

A different internal error may be caused by doing 'restart 0' instead of
'detach'.

Example session showing the bug (detach):
