[gdb/testsuite] Reduce errors after gdb exit in default_gdb_start
When running test-case gdb.base/readnever.exp with target board readnow, and without commit 96038148d0e "[gdb/testsuite] Skip gdb.base/readnever.exp with target board readnow", we run into a bunch of errors, starting with: ... spawn gdb -nw -nx -data-directory data-directory -ex set sysroot -readnow \ --readnever^M gdb: '--readnow' and '--readnever' cannot be specified simultaneously^M ERROR: : spawn id exp9 not open while executing "expect { -i exp9 -timeout 10 -re "$gdb_prompt $" { verbose "Setting height to 0." 2 } ... The illegal combination of --readnow and --readnever causes gdb to start, print an error message and exit. There's a gdb_expect in default_gdb_start that is supposed to detect the initial gdb prompt and handle related problems, but since there's no eof case it succeeds, and default_gdb_start continues as if the gdb prompt had been detected, causing the error above. Fix this by adding an eof case to the gdb_expect, such that we have the more accurate: ... ERROR: (eof) GDB never initialized. ... Further errors are triggered in clean_restart, because we're not testing for gdb_start success. Fix this by detecting gdb_start failure, and bailing out. Finally, we're running into further errors in gdb.base/readnever.exp because we're not testing for clean_restart success. Fix this by making clean_restart return -1 upon error, and testing for this. Tested on x86_64-linux. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2020-04-24 Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de> * lib/gdb.exp (default_gdb_start): Handle eof. (clean_restart): Detect and handle gdb_start failure. Return -1 upon failure. * gdb.base/readnever.exp: Handle clean_restart failure.
