PR gdb/20604 - fix "quit" when an invalid expression is used
This fixes PR gdb/20604. The bug here is that passing an invalid expression to "quit" -- e.g., "quit()" -- causes gdb to enter a non-functioning state. The immediate problem is that quit_force resets the terminal before evaluating the expression. However, it seemed to me that it doesn't really make sense to pass the quit_force argument to kill_or_detach (which passes it to to_detach), first because conflating the exit status for "quit" and the signal to pass when detaching doesn't make sense, and second because to_detach implementations generally only accept a constant here, while "quit" accepts an expression. So, I removed that. As an aside, I think the "detach SIGNO" functionality is not documented. Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 24. 2016-09-21 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR gdb/20604: * top.h (quit_force): Update. * top.c (quit_force): Changed type of first argument. Don't evaluate expression. Pass NULL to kill_or_detach. * cli/cli-cmds.c (quit_command): Evaluate "args". 2016-09-21 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> PR gdb/20604: * gdb.base/quit.exp: New file.
