With a testsuite setup modified to make expect wait a little bit longer for
gdb output (see PR27957), I run into:
...
PASS: gdb.base/new-ui-pending-input.exp: spawn gdb
print 1^M
print 2^M
print 3^M
(gdb) $1 = 1^M
(gdb) $2 = 2^M
(gdb) $3 = 3^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/new-ui-pending-input.exp: initial prompt on extra console
^M
Breakpoint 1, main () at new-ui-pending-input.c:25^M
25 return 0; /* set breakpoint here */^M
FAIL: gdb.base/new-ui-pending-input.exp: print 1 on extra console (timeout)
...
Usually, I get a pass instead. In the passing case, the "initial prompt"
PASS is after the first prompt:
...
PASS: gdb.base/new-ui-pending-input.exp: spawn gdb
print 1^M
print 2^M
print 3^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/new-ui-pending-input.exp: initial prompt on extra console
...
while in the failing case, that PASS is after the fourth prompt.
The regexp doesn't match the first prompt because it terminates with a '$':
...
-re "$gdb_prompt $" {
...
Fix this by removing the terminating '$' and prefixing the regex with
something unique to the first prompt: "print 3".
Tested on x86_64-linux.
