[1/2] GDBserver: Don't assume thread's a current process in D;PID implementation (PR gdb/23377)
Commit Message
This fixes a gdb.base/multi-forks.exp regression with GDBserver.
Git commit f2ffa92bbce9 ("gdb: Eliminate the 'stop_pc' global") caused
the regression by exposing a latent bug in gdbserver.
The bug is that GDBserver's implementation of the D;PID packet
incorrectly assumes that the selected thread points to the process
being detached. This happens via the any_persistent_commands call,
which calls current_process:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x000000000040a57e in internal_error(char const*, int, char const*, ...)
(file=0x4a53c0 "src/gdb/gdbserver/inferiors.c", line=212, fmt=0x4a539e "%s:

#2 0x00000000004226a0 in any_persistent_commands() () at

#3 0x000000000042cb43 in handle_detach(char*) (own_buf=0x6f0280 "D;62ea") at

#4 0x0000000000433af3 in process_serial_event() () at
src/gdb/gdbserver/server.c:4055
#5 0x0000000000434878 in handle_serial_event(int, void*) (err=0,
client_data=0x0)
The "eliminate stop_pc" commit exposes the problem because before that
commit, GDB's switch_to_thread always read the newly-selected thread's
PC, and that would end up forcing GDBserver's selected thread to
change accordingly as side effect. After that commit, GDB no longer
reads the thread's PC, and GDBserver does not switch the thread.
Fix this by removing the assumption from GDBserver.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
yyyy-mm-dd Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
PR gdb/23377
* mem-break.c (any_persistent_commands): Add process_info
parameter and use it instead of relying on the current process.
Change return type to bool.
* mem-break.h (any_persistent_commands): Add process_info
parameter and change return type to bool.
* server.c (handle_detach): Remove require_running_or_return call.
Look up the process_info for the process we're about to detach.
If not found, return back error to GDB. Adjust
any_persistent_commands call to pass down a process pointer.

Otherwise, LGTM.
