Subject: Resume the inferior with signal rather than stepping over
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=484b3c325d8182cd7b7da4ceeaedc238c7f80b5c;p=binutils-gdb.git

Resume the inferior with signal rather than stepping over

When GDBserver steps over a breakpoint using software single step, it
enqueues the signal, single step and deliver the signal in the next
resume if step over is not needed.  In this way, the program won't
receive the signal if the conditional breakpoint is set a branch to
self instruction, because the step over is always needed.

This patch removes the restriction that don't deliver the signal to
the inferior if we are trying to reinsert a breakpoint for software
single step and change the decision on resume vs. step-over when the
LWP has pending signals to deliver.

gdb/gdbserver:

	(need_step_over_p): Return zero if the LWP has pending signals
	can be delivered on software single step target.
