During this time, is Emacs responsive to user commands, i.e. does it
work normally apart from taking 100% CPU? Or is it just unresponsive?
Also, what is your gdb version?
Also, please set a breakpoint at process.c:4896, which should be the
line
struct Lisp_Process *p = XPROCESS (proc);
as well as the function exec_sentinel(). See if Emacs hits each
breakpoint, and step through it for the next several steps. In
exec_sentinel, please show the Lisp values of the `proc' and `reason'
variables (i.e. `pp proc' and `pp reason'.)
Basically, gdb-mi.el allocates a pty and passes it to the gdb process,
which hooks the pty up to the debugged process's input/output. That's
what the "1-inferior-tty-set /dev/pts/9" gdb command does. Emacs then
listens for input/output on the pty. Recently I fixed a bug in which
Emacs would use 100% CPU due to Emacs getting an EIO error on that pty
and then spinning; this fix involved setting up a sentinel that closes
the pty when Emacs gets EIO; it's possible the fix is not working for
you, though I don't know why. The other possibility is that the program
you are debugging does something strange with its input/output stream.
Thanks.
