PR gdb/15275 notes that when debugging with a remote connection over a
serial link and the link is disconnected, say by disconnecting USB
serial port, the GDB quit command no longer works:
(gdb)
tar ext /dev/ttyACM0
&"tar ext /dev/ttyACM0\n"
~"Remote debugging using /dev/ttyACM0\n"
^done
(gdb)
set debug remote 1
&"set debug remote 1\n"
^done
(gdb)
quit
&"quit\n"
&"Sending packet: $qTStatus#49..."
&"putpkt: write failed: Input/output error.\n"
^error,msg="putpkt: write failed: Input/output error."
(gdb)
(gdb)
quit
&"quit\n"
&"Sending packet: $qTStatus#49..."
&"putpkt: write failed: Input/output error.\n"
^error,msg="putpkt: write failed: Input/output error."
This is not reproducible with TCP connections, as with that, sending
doesn't error out, but instead the error is detected on the subsequent
readchar. When that read fails, we unpush the remote target, and
throw TARGET_CLOSE_ERROR. To address PR gdb/15275, instead of
catching the error in remote_get_trace_status as presently done (which
leaves this same issue latent for another packet to trip on), or of
making ser-unix.c fake success too on failed writes, so we'd get to
readchar detecting the error on serial ports too, better let the error
propagate out of serial_write, and catch it at the remote.c level,
throwing away the target if writing fails too, instead of delaying
that until the next read.
