[PATCHv3,5/9] gdb: don't display inferior list for pending breakpoints
Commit Message
I noticed that in the 'info breakpoints' output, GDB sometimes prints
the inferior list for pending breakpoints, this doesn't seem right to
me. A pending breakpoint has no locations (at least, as far as we
display things in the 'info breakpoints' output), so including an
inferior list seems odd.
Here's what I see right now:
(gdb) info breakpoint 5
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
5 breakpoint keep y <PENDING> foo inf 1
(gdb)
It's the 'inf 1' at the end of the line that I'm objecting too.
To trigger this behaviour we need to be in a multi-inferior debug
session. The breakpoint must have been non-pending at some point in
the past, and so have a location assigned to it.
The breakpoint becomes pending again as a result of a shared library
being unloaded. When this happens the location itself is marked
pending (via bp_location::shlib_disabled).
In print_one_breakpoint_location, in order to print the inferior list
we check that the breakpoint has a location, and that we have multiple
inferiors, but we don't check if the location itself is pending.
This commit adds that check, which means the output is now:
(gdb) info breakpoint 5
Num Type Disp Enb Address What
5 breakpoint keep y <PENDING> foo
(gdb)
Which I think makes more sense.
