[PATCH] Create API for checking and clearing GDB connection status
Posted by Keith Packard via 3 years, 3 months ago
When checking whether there is a live gdb connection, code shouldn't
use 'gdbserver_state.init' as that value is set when the
gdbserver_state structure is initialized in init_gdbserver_state, not
when the gdb socket has a valid connection.

I've created two new functions to manage the gdb connection status:

	/* Check whether GDB is currently connected */
	static int gdb_is_connected(void)

	#ifdef CONFIG_USER_ONLY

	/* Close GDB connection */
	static void gdb_disconnect(void)

	#endif

The first checks whether there is an active GDB connection, the second
closes that connection and resets the connection status indication.

The 'handle_detach' function used 'gdbserver_state.c_cpu' as an
indication of whether there is a connection, so I've used the same in
gdb_is_connected as that is independent of CONFIG_USER_ONLY.

This avoids a segfault when qemu is run with the '-s' flag (create a
gdb protocol socket), but without the '-S' flag (delay until 'c'
command is received).
