Commit Message
On Cygwin, gdb.base/attach.exp exposes that a attach after a
previously failed attach hangs:
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/attach.exp: do_attach_failure_tests: attach to digits-starting nonsense is prohibited
attach 0
Can't attach to process 0 (error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.)
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/attach.exp: do_attach_failure_tests: attach to nonexistent process is prohibited
attach 10644
FAIL: gdb.base/attach.exp: do_attach_failure_tests: first attach (timeout)
The problem is that windows_nat_target::attach always returns success
even if the attach fails. When we return success, the helper thread
begins waiting for events (which will never come), and thus the next
attach deadlocks on the do_synchronously call within
windows_nat_target::attach.
"run" has the same problem, which is exposed by the new
gdb.base/run-fail-twice.exp testcase:
(gdb) run
Starting program: .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox
Error creating process .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox, (error 6: The handle is invalid.)
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/run-fail-twice.exp: test: bad run 1
run
Starting program: .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox
FAIL: gdb.base/run-fail-twice.exp: test: bad run 2 (timeout)
The problem here is the same, except that this time it is
windows_nat_target::create_inferior that returns the incorrect result.
This commit fixes both the "attach" and "run" paths. The tests
mentioned above now pass on Cygwin.

The same problem also exists in the !__CYGWIN__ branch, I ran into this
multiple times already.

Wow, the #ifdef region is so long that I didn't notice this particular code was Cygwin-only.
I had put "Windows" in the subject as I thought I was fixing native Windows too...
I'll go fix the !__CYGWIN__ branches too.
Thanks!

Here's an updated version that now handles the !__CYGWIN__ branch too. I confirmed manually
that I saw the hangs on MinGW gdb without the fix, and that both the "attach" and "run" hangs go away
with this version patch (the previous version still hanged with "run").

Subject: [PATCH] Windows: Fix run/attach hang after bad run/attach
On Cygwin, gdb.base/attach.exp exposes that a attach after a
previously failed attach hangs:
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/attach.exp: do_attach_failure_tests: attach to digits-starting nonsense is prohibited
attach 0
Can't attach to process 0 (error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.)
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/attach.exp: do_attach_failure_tests: attach to nonexistent process is prohibited
attach 10644
FAIL: gdb.base/attach.exp: do_attach_failure_tests: first attach (timeout)
The problem is that windows_nat_target::attach always returns success
even if the attach fails. When we return success, the helper thread
begins waiting for events (which will never come), and thus the next
attach deadlocks on the do_synchronously call within
windows_nat_target::attach.
"run" has the same problem, which is exposed by the new
gdb.base/run-fail-twice.exp testcase:
(gdb) run
Starting program: .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox
Error creating process .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox, (error 6: The handle is invalid.)
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/run-fail-twice.exp: test: bad run 1
run
Starting program: .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox
FAIL: gdb.base/run-fail-twice.exp: test: bad run 2 (timeout)
The problem here is the same, except that this time it is
windows_nat_target::create_inferior that returns the incorrect result.
This commit fixes both the "attach" and "run" paths, and the latter
both the Cygwin and MinGW paths. The tests mentioned above now pass
on Cygwin. Confirmed the fixes manually for MinGW GDB.
