From: "Rohr, Stephan" <[email protected]> GDB asserts when sending an interrupt to an empty remote target, e.g. use stdio to connect to a remote target in non-stop mode: 'gdb -ex "set non-stop on" -ex "target extended-remote | gdbserver --multi --once -' Interrupting the target triggers an assertion in 'find_inferior_pid'. Fix by checking for a valid thread in 'interrupt_target_1' for 'non-stop' mode. --- gdb/infcmd.c | 5 ++- .../interrupt-empty-remote-target.exp | 40 +++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 44 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 gdb/testsuite/gdb.server/interrupt-empty-remote-target.exp diff --git a/gdb/infcmd.c b/gdb/infcmd.c index 3e943123519..512ecde4879 100644 --- a/gdb/infcmd.c +++ b/gdb/infcmd.c @@ -3133,7 +3133,10 @@ interrupt_target_1 (bool all_threads) } } else - stop_current_target_threads_ns (inferior_ptid); + { + ensure_valid_thread (); + stop_current_target_threads_ns (inferior_ptid); + } } else target_interrupt (); diff --git a/gdb/testsuite/gdb.server/interrupt-empty-remote-target.exp b/gdb/testsuite/gdb.server/interrupt-empty-remote-target.exp new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..34437a17d90 --- /dev/null +++ b/gdb/testsuite/gdb.server/interrupt-empty-remote-target.exp @@ -0,0 +1,40 @@ +# Copyright 2024 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + +# This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify +# it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by +# the Free Software Foundation; either version 3 of the License, or +# (at your option) any later version. +# +# This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, +# but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +# MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
