  Hi,

When using target board cc-with-gdb-index.exp and running tests in parallel,
we run into:
...
gdb compile failed, gdb/contrib/gdb-add-index.sh: line 86: \
  build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.sh: Text file busy
...

The problem is that because of the parallel test run, gdb.sh is created for
every single test-case, and eventually gdb.sh is overwritten while being
executed.

Fix this by creating gdb.sh only once.

Tested on x86_64-linux with target board cc-with-gdb-index.exp, using both a
serial and parallel -j 5 test run.

OK for trunk?

Thanks,
- Tom

Hi Tom,

Thanks for fixing this.  I've tried a few runs of:

  make check-parallel RUNTESTFLAGS="--target_board=cc-with-debug-names" TESTS="gdb.dwarf2/*.exp" -j 32

... and don't see any variations of this nature anymore (whereas I see some without the patch applied).

The patch LGTM.

Simon
