Currently, several commands take "0" or "-1" to mean "unlimited".
"show" knows when to print "unlimited":
(gdb) show height
Number of lines gdb thinks are in a page is 45.
(gdb) set height 0
(gdb) show height
Number of lines gdb thinks are in a page is unlimited.
However, the user can't herself specify "unlimited" directly:
(gdb) set height unlimited
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
(gdb)
This patch addresses that, by adjusting the set handler for all
integer/uinteger/zuinteger_unlimited commands to accept literal
"unlimited". It also installs a completer. Presently, we complete on
symbols by default, and at
<http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-03/msg00864.html> I've
shown a WIP prototype that tried to keep that half working in these
commands. In the end, it turned out to be more complicated than
justifiable, IMO. It's super rare to want to pass the value of a
variable/symbol in the program to a GDB set/show knob. That'll still
work, it's just that we won't assist with completion anymore. This
patch just sticks with the simple, and completes on "unlimited", and
nothing else. This simplification means that
"set he<tab><tab>"
is all it takes to get to:
"set height unlimited"
The patch then goes through all integer/uinteger/zuinteger_unlimited
commands in the tree, and updates both the online help and the manual
to mention that "unlimited" is accepted in addition to 0/-1. In the
cases where the command had no online help text at all, this adds it.
I've tried to make the texts read in a way that "unlimited" is
suggested before "0" or "-1" is.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17.

GDB currently sends a qTStatus even if the target previously replied
an empty packet to a previous qTStatus. If the target doesn't
recognize the packet, there's no point in trying again.
The machinery we have in place is packet_ok, which has the nice side
effect of forcing one to install a configuration command/knob for the
packet in question, which is often handy when you need to debug
things, and/or emulate a target that doesn't support the packet, or even,
it can be used as workaround for the old broken kgdb's that return error
to qTSTatus instead of an empty packet.

Currently, "set listsize -1" is supposed to mean "unlimited" source
lines, but, alas, it doesn't actually work:
(gdb) set listsize -1
(gdb) show listsize
Number of source lines gdb will list by default is unlimited.
(gdb) list 1
(gdb) list 1
(gdb) list 1
(gdb) set listsize 10

Before this patch:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2012-08/msg00367.html
was applied, the "set listsize" command was a var_integer command, and
"unlimited" was set with 0. Internally, var_integer maps 0 to INT_MAX
case var_integer:
{
...
if (val == 0 && c->var_type == var_integer)
val = INT_MAX;
The change in that patch to zuinteger_unlimited command, meant that -1
is left as -1 in the command's control variable (lines_to_list), and
the code in source.c isn't expecting that -- it only expects positive
numbers.
I previously suggested fixing the code and keeping the new behavior,
but I found that "set listsize 0" is currently used in the wild, and
we do have a bunch of other commands where "0" means unlimited, so I'm
thinking that changing this command alone in isolation is not a good
idea.
So I now strongly prefer reverting back the behavior in 7.6 to the
same behavior the command has had since 2006 (0==unlimited, -1=error).
Before that, set listsize -1 would be accepted as unlimited as well.
After 7.6 is out, in mainline, we can get back to reconsidering
changing this command's behavior, if there's a real need for being
able to suppress output. For now, let's play it safe.
The "list line 1 with unlimited listsize" test in list.exp was
originally written years and years ago expecting 0 to mean "no
output", but GDB never actually worked that way, even when the tests
were written, so the tests had been xfailed then. This patch now
adjusts the test to the new behavior, so that the test actually
passes, and the xfail is removed.
