Following the implementation of exec-file-mismatch based on build-id, an attach to a process that runs a modified exec-file was triggering the exec-file-mismatch handling, giving a warning such as: warning: Mismatch between current exec-file /bd/home/philippe/gdb/git/build_termours/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/attach/attach and automatically determined exec-file /bd/home/philippe/gdb/git/build_termours/gdb/testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/attach/attach exec-file-mismatch handling is currently "ask" as the build-ids differ when an exec-file is recompiled. This patch ensures that the exec-file-mismatch check is done with an up to date build-id. With this, exec-file-mismatch check will only trigger when the PID file really differs from the (build-id refreshed) current exec-file. Note that the additional check does not (yet) reload the symbols if the exec-file is changed: this reload will happen later if needed. gdb/ChangeLog 2020-06-21 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * exec.c (validate_exec_file): Ensure the build-id is up to date by calling reopen_exec_file (that checks file timestamp to decide to re-read the file). gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2020-06-21 Philippe Waroquiers <philippe.waroquiers@skynet.be> * gdb.base/attach.exp: Test priority of 'exec-file' changed over 'exec-file-mismatch'. * gdb.base/attach.c: Mark should_exit volatile. * gdb.base/attach2.c: Likewise. Add a comment explaining why the sleep cannot be big. * gdb.base/attach3.c: New file.
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
