Commit Message
If starting the inferior process with "run" (vRun packet) fails,
GDBserver throws an error that escapes all the way to the top level.
When an error escapes all the way like that, GDBserver interprets it
as a disconnection, and either goes back to waiting for a new GDB
connection, or exits, if --once was specified.
E.g., with the testcase program added by this commit, we see:
On GDB side:
...
(gdb) tar extended-remote :999
...
Remote debugging using :9999
(gdb) r
Starting program:
Running ".../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox" on the remote target failed
(gdb)
On GDBserver side:
$ gdbserver --once --multi :9999
Remote debugging from host 127.0.0.1, port 34344
bash: line 1: .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox: Permission denied
bash: line 1: exec: .../gdb.base/run-fail-twice/run-fail-twice.nox: cannot execute: Permission denied
gdbserver: During startup program exited with code 126.
$ # gdbserver exited
This is wrong, as we've connected with extended-remote/--multi.
GDBserver should just report an error to vCont, and continue connected
to GDB, waiting for other commands.
This commit fixes GDBserver by catching the error locally in
handle_v_run.
