Re: [RFA] fix remote testing I/O conflicts

[Yvan Roux]

Hi,

here the patch which addresses the comments made on this list and no
irc.  It changes the layout where the testcase are downloaded on the
remote target by introducing a new directory under /tmp, where the
programs are downloaded and executed. (i.e /tmp/test_name.PID =>
/tmp/runtest.PID/test_name and execution => cd /tmp/runtest.PID/ ;
/tmp/runtest.PID/test_name).

Tested on a full cross validaiton of GCC without regressions.

Rq: The behavior of the standard routines is not changed, only the
name remotefile is modifed.

Cheers,
Yvan

        * config/unix.exp (unix_load): Delegate remote directory handling to
        remote_download.
        * lib/remote.exp (remnote_download): Create a remote directory (in a
        new global remotedir) if needed and handle it.
        (remote_exec): Execute program inside remotedir when it exists.
        (remote_close): Remove remotedir when it exists.
        (standard_load): Delegate remote directory handling to
        remote_download.
