The STOP_SIGNAL macro was originally added for Convex Unix
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_Computer).
In:
git show 7a67dd45ca1c:gdb/m-convex.h
we see:
~~~
/* Use SIGCONT rather than SIGTSTP because convex Unix occasionally
turkeys SIGTSTP. I think. */
#define STOP_SIGNAL SIGCONT
~~~
That's gdb-3.5, 1990... In gdb/ChangeLog-3.x we see:
~~~
Tue Apr 18 13:43:37 1989 Randall Smith (randy at apple-gunkies.ai.mit.edu)
Various changes involved in 1) getting gdb to work on the convex,
[...]
Made whatever signal indicates a stop configurable (via macro
STOP_SIGNAL).
(main): Setup use of above as a signal handler. Added check for
"-nw" in args already processed.
(command_line_input): SIGTSTP ==>STOP_SIGNAL.
~~~
Support for Convex Unix is long gone, and nothing else overrides
STOP_SIGNAL. So just use SIGTSTP directly, removing a little
obfuscation.
(I don't really understand why we override [1] readline's SIGTSTP
handler (only) when reading scripts (and then fail to restore it
properly, assuming SIG_DFL...), but I'll leave that for another pass.
[1] - Actually, starting with readline 6.3, readline is no longer
installing its handlers while GDB is in control...)
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-11-06 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* event-top.c: Check SIGTSTP instead of STOP_SIGNAL thoughout.
(async_init_signals): Adjust.
(handle_stop_sig): Rename to ...
(handle_sigtstp): ... this.
(async_stop_sig): Rename to ...
(async_sigtstp_handler): ... this, and delete STOP_SIGNAL !=
SIGTSTP path.
* event-top.h: Move signal.h include to the top. Check SIGTSTP
instead of STOP_SIGNAL thoughout.
(handle_stop_sig): Rename to ...
(handle_sigtstp): ... this.
* top.c (command_line_input): Replace STOP_SIGNAL -> SIGTSTP.
This removes new_ui and delete_ui in favor of ordinary 'new' and
'delete', and then removes make_delete_ui_cleanup in favor of
std::unique_ptr.
2017-10-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
* event-top.c (stdin_event_handler): Update.
* main.c (captured_main_1): Update.
* top.h (make_delete_ui_cleanup): Remove.
(struct ui): Add constructor and destructor.
(new_ui, delete_ui): Remove.
* top.c (make_delete_ui_cleanup): Remove.
(new_ui_command): Use std::unique_ptr.
(delete_ui_cleanup): Remove.
(ui::ui): Rename from new_ui. Update.
(free_ui): Remove.
(ui::~ui): Rename from delete_ui. Update.
This removes a cleanup from display_gdb_prompt by using std::string.

* event-top.c (top_level_prompt): Return std::string.
(display_gdb_prompt): Update.
This is ugly, but it's just making the uglyness explicit.
All these places would better be calling some API function directly
instead of going through execute_command & friends...
gdb/ChangeLog:
2017-04-05 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* event-top.c (command_line_handler): Add cast to execute_command
call.
* record-btrace.c (cmd_record_btrace_bts_start)
(cmd_record_btrace_pt_start, cmd_record_btrace_start)
(cmd_record_btrace_start): Add cast to execute_command call.
* record-full.c (record_full_goto_insn):
* record.c (record_start, record_stop): Add cast to
execute_command_to_string calls.
(cmd_record_start): Add cast to execute_command calls.
This patch starts from the desire to eliminate
make_cleanup_ui_file_delete, but then goes beyond. It makes ui_file &
friends a real C++ class hierarchy, and switches temporary
ui_file-like objects to stack-based allocation.
- mem_fileopen -> string_file
mem_fileopen is replaced with a new string_file class that is treated
as a value class created on the stack. This alone eliminates most
make_cleanup_ui_file_delete calls, and, simplifies code a whole lot
(diffstat shows around 1k loc dropped.)
string_file's internal buffer is a std::string, thus the "string" in
the name. This simplifies the implementation much, compared to
mem_fileopen, which managed growing its internal buffer manually.
- ui_file_as_string, ui_file_strdup, ui_file_obsavestring all gone
The new string_file class has a string() method that provides direct
writable access to the internal std::string buffer. This replaced
ui_file_as_string, which forced a copy of the same data the stream had
inside. With direct access via a writable reference, we can instead
move the string out of the string_stream, avoiding deep string
copying.
Related, ui_file_xstrdup calls are replaced with xstrdup'ping the
stream's string, and ui_file_obsavestring is replaced by
obstack_copy0.
With all those out of the way, getting rid of the weird ui_file_put
mechanism was possible.
- New ui_file::printf, ui_file::puts, etc. methods
These simplify / clarify client code. I considered splitting
client-code changes, like these, e.g.:
- stb = mem_fileopen ();
- fprintf_unfiltered (stb, "%s%s%s",
- _("The valid values are:\n"),
- regdesc,
- _("The default is \"std\"."));
+ string_file stb;
+ stb.printf ("%s%s%s",
+ _("The valid values are:\n"),
+ regdesc,
+ _("The default is \"std\"."));
In two steps, with the first step leaving fprintf_unfiltered (etc.)
calls in place, and only afterwards do a pass to change all those to
call stb.printf etc.. I didn't do that split, because (when I tried),
it turned out to be pointless make-work: the first pass would have to
touch the fprintf_unfiltered line anyway, to replace "stb" with
"&stb".
- gdb_fopen replaced with stack-based objects
This avoids the need for cleanups or unique_ptr's. I.e., this:
struct ui_file *file = gdb_fopen (filename, "w");
if (filename == NULL)
perror_with_name (filename);
cleanups = make_cleanup_ui_file_delete (file);
// use file.
do_cleanups (cleanups);
is replaced with this:
stdio_file file;
if (!file.open (filename, "w"))
perror_with_name (filename);
// use file.
- odd contorsions in null_file_write / null_file_fputs around when to
call to_fputs / to_write eliminated.
- Global null_stream object
A few places that were allocating a ui_file in order to print to
"nowhere" are adjusted to instead refer to a new 'null_stream' global
stream.
- TUI's tui_sfileopen eliminated. TUI's ui_file much simplified
The TUI's ui_file was serving a dual purpose. It supported being used
as string buffer, and supported being backed by a stdio FILE. The
string buffer part is gone, replaced by using of string_file. The
'FILE *' support is now much simplified, by making the TUI's ui_file
inherit from stdio_file.

This applies the second part of GDB's End of Year Procedure, which
updates the copyright year range in all of GDB's files.
gdb/ChangeLog:
Update copyright year range in all GDB files.
Nowadays, GDB propagates C++ exceptions across readline using
setjmp/longjmp 89525768cd ("Propagate GDB/C++ exceptions across
readline using sj/lj-based TRY/CATCH") because DWARF-based unwinding
can't cross C functions compiled without -fexceptions (see details
from the commit above).
Unfortunately, toolchains that use SjLj-based C++ exceptions got
broken with that fix, because _Unwind_SjLj_Unregister, which is put at
the exit of a function, is not executed due to the longjmp added by
that commit.

Fix this by making the functions involved in setjmp/longjmp as
noexcept, so that the compiler knows it doesn't need to emit the
_Unwind_SjLj_Register / _Unwind_SjLj_Unregister calls for C++
exceptions.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 23 with:
- GCC 5.3.1 w/ DWARF-based exceptions.
- GCC 7 built with --enable-sjlj-exceptions.

When executing commands on a secondary UI running the MI interpreter,
some commands that should be synchronous are not. MI incorrectly
continues processing input right after the synchronous command is
sent, before the target stops.
The problem happens when we emit MI async events (=library-loaded,
etc.), and we go about restoring the previous terminal state, we end
up calling target_terminal_ours, which incorrectly always installs the
current UI's input_fd in the event loop... That is, code like this:
old_chain = make_cleanup_restore_target_terminal ();
target_terminal_ours_for_output ();
fprintf_unfiltered (mi->event_channel, "library-loaded");
...
do_cleanups (old_chain);
The fix is to move the add_file_handler/delete_file_handler calls out
of target_terminal_$foo, making these completely no-ops unless called
with the main UI as current UI.

This commit makes each UI have its own "stdin" stream pointer. This
is used to determine whether the "from_tty" argument to
execute_command, etc. should be true.
Related, this commit makes input_from_terminal_p take an UI parameter,
and then avoids the gdb_has_a_terminal in it. gdb_has_a_terminal only
returns info on gdb's own main/primary terminal (the real stdin).
However, the places that call input_from_terminal_p really want to
know is whether the command came from an interactive tty. This patch
thus renames input_from_terminal_p to input_interactive_p for clarity,
and then makes input_interactive_p check for "set interactive" itself,
along with ISATTY, instead of calling gdb_has_a_terminal. Actually,
quit_force wants to call input_interactive_p _after_ stdin is closed,
we can't call ISATTY that late. So instead we save the result of
ISATTY in a field of the UI.

When sync_execution (a boolean) is true, it means we're running a
foreground command -- we hide the prompt stop listening to input, give
the inferior the terminal, then go to the event loop waiting for the
target to stop.
With multiple independent UIs, we need to track whether each UI is
synchronously blocked waiting for the target. IOW, if you do
"continue" in one console, that console stops accepting commands, but
you should still be free to type other commands in the others
consoles.
Just simply making sync_execution be per-UI alone not sufficient,
because of this in fetch_inferior_event:
/* If the inferior was in sync execution mode, and now isn't,
restore the prompt (a synchronous execution command has finished,
and we're ready for input). */
if (current_ui->async && was_sync && !sync_execution)
observer_notify_sync_execution_done ();
We'd have to record at entry the "was_sync" state for each UI, not
just of the current UI.
This patch instead replaces the sync_execution flag by a per-UI
tristate flag indicating the command line prompt state:
enum prompt_state
{
/* The command line is blocked simulating synchronous execution.
This is used to implement the foreground execution commands
('run', 'continue', etc.). We won't display the prompt and
accept further commands until the execution is actually over. */
PROMPT_BLOCKED,
/* The command finished; display the prompt before returning back to
the top level. */
PROMPT_NEEDED,
/* We've displayed the prompt already, ready for input. */
PROMPTED,
;
I think the end result is _much_ clearer than the current code, and,
it addresses the original motivation too.

All interpreter types (CLI/TUI/MI) print the prompt, and then call

Because we'll need an interpreter hook to display the
interpreter-specific prompt before going back to the event loop,
without actually starting an event loop, this patch moves the
start_event_loop call to common code, and replaces the command_loop
hook with a pre_command_look hook, that now just prints the prompt.
Turns out to be a cleanup on its own right anyway.

Due to the way that readline's API works (based on globals), we can
only have one instance of readline in a process. So the goal of this
patch is to only allow editing in the main UI, and make sure that only
one UI calls into readline. Some MI paths touch readline variables
currently, which is bad as that is changing variables that matter for
the main console UI. This patch fixes those.
This actually fixes a nasty bug -- starting gdb in MI mode ("gdb
-i=mi"), and then doing "set editing on" crashes GDB, because MI is
not prepared to use readline:
set editing on
&"set editing on\n"
=cmd-param-changed,param="editing",value="on"
^done
(gdb)
p 1
readline: readline_callback_read_char() called with no handler!
Aborted (core dumped)
The fix for that was to add an interp_proc method to query the
interpreter whether it actually supports editing. New test included.

When we have multiple consoles, MI channels, etc., then we need to
broadcast breakpoint hits, etc. to all UIs. In the past, I've
adjusted most of the run control to communicate events to the
interpreters through observer notifications, so events would be
properly sent to console and MI streams, in sync and async modes.
This patch does the next logical step -- have each interpreter's
observers output interpreter-specific info to _all_ UIs.
Note that when we have multiple instances of active cli/tui
interpreters, then the cli_interp and tui_interp globals no longer
work. This is addressed by this patch.
Also, the interpreters currently register some observers when resumed
and remove them when suspended. If we have multiple instances of the
interpreters, and they can be suspended/resumed at different,
independent times, that no longer works. What we instead do is always
install the observers, and then have the observers themselves know
when to do nothing.
An earlier prototype of this series did the looping over struct UIs in
common code, and then dispatched events to the interpreters through a
matching interp_on_foo method for each observer. That turned out a
lot more complicated than the present solution, as we'd end up with
having to create a new interp method every time some interpreter
wanted to listen to some observer notification, resulting in a lot of
duplicated make-work and more coupling than desirable.

This is a step towards supporting multiple consoles/MIs, each on its

See intro comment in top.h.
(I've had trouble picking a name for this object. I've started out
with "struct console" originally. But then this is about MI as well,
and there's "interpreter-exec console", which is specifically about
the CLI...
So I changed to "struct terminal", but, then we have a terminal object
that works when the input is not a terminal as well ...
Then I sort of gave up and renamed it to "struct top_level". But it
then gets horribly confusing when we talk about the "top level
interpreter that's running on the current top level".
In the end, I realized we're already sort of calling this "ui", in
struct ui_out, struct ui_file, and a few coments here and there.)

If we map GDB'S TRY/CATCH macros to C++ try/catch, GDB breaks on
systems where readline isn't built with exceptions support. The
problem is that readline calls into GDB through the callback
interface, and if GDB's callback throws a C++ exception/error, the
system unwinder won't manage to unwind past the readline frame, and
ends up calling std::terminate(), which aborts the process:
(gdb) whatever-command-that-causes-an-error
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'gdb_exception_RETURN_MASK_ERROR'
Aborted
$
This went unnoticed for so long because:
- the x86-64 ABI requires -fasynchronous-unwind-tables, making it
possible for exceptions to cross readline with no special handling.
But e.g., on ARM or AIX, unless you build readline with
-fexceptions, you trip on the problem.
- TRY/CATCH was mapped to setjmp/longjmp, even in C++ mode, until
quite recently.
The fix is to catch and save any GDB exception that is thrown inside
the GDB readline callback, and then once the callback returns back to
the GDB code that called into readline in the first place, rethrow the
saved GDB exception.
This is similar in spirit to how we catch/map GDB exceptions at the
GDB/Python and GDB/Guile API boundaries.
The next question is then: if we intercept all exceptions within GDB's
readline callback, should we simply return normally to readline? The
callback prototype has no way to signal an error back to readline (*).
The answer is no -- if we return normally, we'll be returning to a
loop inside rl_callback_read_char that continues processing pending
input, calling into GDB again, redisplaying the prompt, etc. Thus if
we want to error out of rl_callback_read_char, we need to long jump
across it, just like we always did before TRY/CATCH were ever mapped
to C++ exceptions.
My first approach built a specialized API to handle this, with a
couple macros to hide the setjmp/longjmp and the struct gdb_exception
saving/rethrowing.
However, I realized that we need to:
- Handle multiple active rl_callback_read_char invocations. If,
while processing input something triggers a secondary prompt, we
end up in a nested rl_callback_read_char call, through
gdb_readline_wrapper.
- Propagate a struct gdb_exception along with the longjmp.
... and that this is exactly what the setjmp/longjmp-based TRY/CATCH
does.
So the fix makes the setjmp/longjmp TRY/CATCH always available under
new TRY_SJLJ/CATCH_SJLJ aliases, even when TRY/CATCH is mapped to C++
try/catch, and then uses TRY_SJLJ/CATCH_SJLJ to propagate GDB
exceptions across the readline callback.
This turns out to be a much better looking fix than my bespoke API
attempt, even. We'll probably be able to simplify TRY_SJLJ/CATCH_SJLJ
when we finally get rid of TRY/CATCH all over the tree, but until
then, this reuse seems quite nice for avoiding a second parallel
setjmp/longjmp mechanism.
(*) - maybe we could propose a readline API change, but we still need
to handle current readline, anyway.

This finally gets rid of immediate_quit (and surrounding
infrustruture), as nothing sets it anymore.
gdb_call_async_signal_handler was only necessary in order to handle
immediate_quit. We can just call mark_async_signal_handler directly
on all hosts now.
In turn, we can clean up mingw-hdep.c's gdb_select a bit, as
sigint_event / sigint_handler is no longer needed.

remote.c is the last user of immediate_quit. It's relied on to
immediately break the initial remote connection sync up, if the user
does Ctrl-C, assuming that was because the target isn't responding.
At that stage, since the connection isn't synced yet, disconnecting is
the only safe thing to do. This commit reworks that, to not rely on
throwing from the SIGINT signal handler.
So, this commit:
- Introduces the concept of a "quit handler". This is used to
override what does the QUIT macro do when the quit flag is set.
- Makes the "struct serial" reachar / write code call QUIT in the
partial read/write loops, so the current quit handler is invoked
whenever a serial->read_prim / serial->write_prim returns EINTR.
- Makes the "struct serial" reachar / write code call
interruptible_select instead of gdb_select, so that QUITs are
detected in a race-free manner.
- Stops remote.c from setting immediate_quit during the initial
connection.
- Instead, we install a custom quit handler whenever we're calling
into the serial code. This custom quit handler knows to immediately
throw a quit when we're in the initial connection setup, and
otherwise defer handling the quit/Ctrl-C request to later, when
we're safely out of a packet command/response sequence. This also
is what is now responsible for handling "double Ctrl-C because
target connection is stuck/wedged."
- remote.c no longer installs a specialized SIGINT handlers, and
instead re-uses the quit flag. Since we want to rely on the QUIT
macro, the SIGINT handler must also set the quit. And the easiest
is just to not install custom SIGINT handler in remote.c. Let the
standard SIGINT handler do its job of setting the quit flag.
Centralizing SIGINT handlers seems like a good thing to me, anyway.

This just looks totally wrong to me, for completetly discarding a
user-requested Ctrl-C. I can't think of why we'd want do this here.
Actually, I digged the history, and found out that this has been here
since at least 7b4ac7e1ed (gdb-2.4, the initial revision, 1988), at
a time were we had a top level setjmp/longjmp, long before that got
wrapped in throw_exception and friends, and this code was in an
explicit loop, with the quit_flag cleared on every iteration, before
executing a command...
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-04-12 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* event-top.c (command_handler): Don't call clear_quit_flag.
We have places where we call a blocking gdb_select expecting that a
Ctrl-C will unblock it. However, if the Ctrl-C is pressed just before
gdb_select, the SIGINT handler runs before gdb_select, and thus
gdb_select won't return.
For example gdb_readline_no_editing:
QUIT;
/* Wait until at least one byte of data is available. Control-C
can interrupt gdb_select, but not fgetc. */
FD_ZERO (&readfds);
FD_SET (fd, &readfds);
if (gdb_select (fd + 1, &readfds, NULL, NULL, NULL) == -1)
and stdio_file_read:
/* For the benefit of Windows, call gdb_select before reading from
the file. Wait until at least one byte of data is available.
Control-C can interrupt gdb_select, but not read. */
{
fd_set readfds;
FD_ZERO (&readfds);
FD_SET (stdio->fd, &readfds);
if (gdb_select (stdio->fd + 1, &readfds, NULL, NULL, NULL) == -1)
return -1;
}
return read (stdio->fd, buf, length_buf);
This is a race classically fixed with either the self-pipe trick, or
by blocking SIGINT and then using pselect instead of select.
Blocking SIGINT most of the time would mean that check_quit_flag (and
thus QUIT) would need to do a syscall every time it is called, which
sounds best avoided, since QUIT is called in many loops. Thus we take
the self-pipe trick route (wrapped in a serial event).
Instead of having all places that need this manually add an extra file
descriptor to the set of gdb_select's watched file descriptors, we
introduce a wrapper, interruptible_select, that does that.
The Windows version of gdb_select actually does not suffer from this,
because mingw-hdep.c:gdb_call_async_signal_handler sets a Windows
event that gdb_select always waits on. So this patch can be seen as
generalization of that technique. We can't remove that extra event
from mingw-hdep.c until we get rid of immediate_quit though.

GDB's core signal handling suffers from a classical signal handler /
mainline code race:
int
gdb_do_one_event (void)
{
...
/* First let's see if there are any asynchronous signal handlers
that are ready. These would be the result of invoking any of the
signal handlers. */
if (invoke_async_signal_handlers ())
return 1;
...
/* Block waiting for a new event. (...). */
if (gdb_wait_for_event (1) < 0)
return -1;
...
}
If a signal is delivered while gdb is blocked in the poll/select
inside gdb_wait_for_event, then the select/poll breaks with EINTR,
we'll loop back around and call invoke_async_signal_handlers.
However, if the signal handler runs between
invoke_async_signal_handlers and gdb_wait_for_event,
gdb_wait_for_event will block, until the next unrelated event...
The fix is to a struct serial_event, and register it in the set of
files that select/poll in gdb_wait_for_event waits on. The signal
handlers that defer work to invoke_async_signal_handlers call
mark_async_signal_handler, which is adjusted to also set the new
serial event in addition to setting a flag, and is thus now is
garanteed to immediately unblock the next gdb_select/poll call, up
until invoke_async_signal_handlers is called and the event is cleared.

immediate_quit used to be necessary back when prompt_for_continue used
blocking fread, but nowadays it uses gdb_readline_wrapper, which is
implemented in terms of a nested event loop, which already knows how
to react to SIGINT:

I didn't manage to usefully split this further into smaller

- Use "struct buffer" more.
- Split out the responsibility of composing a complete command line
from multiple input lines split with backslash

E.g.:
(gdb) print \
1 + \
2
$1 = 3
(gdb)
)
to a separate function. Note we don't need the separate

just obfuscating the logic.

GDB currently does not promptly quit after receiving a SIGTERM while no
proper target is active. This is because in handle_sigterm we currently
look at target_can_async_p to determine whether to asynchronously quit
GDB using an async signal handler or to asynchronously quit using the
quit flag. However, target_can_async_p is always false under the dummy
target, so under this target we always use the quit flag and not the
async signal handler to signal that GDB should quit. So GDB won't quit
until a code path that checks the quit flag is executed.
To fix this issue, this patch makes the SIGTERM handler no longer
inspect target_can_async_p, and instead makes the handler
unconditionally set the quit flag _and_ mark the corresponding async
signal handler, so that if the target is async (or if it's the dummy
target) then we will likely quit through the async signal handler, and
if it's not async then we will likely quit through the quit flag. This
redundant approach is similar to how we handle SIGINT.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* event-top.c (handle_sigterm): Don't inspect
target_can_async_p. Always set the quit flag and always mark
the async signal handler.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/gdb-sigterm-2.exp: New test.
This patch splits the TRY_CATCH macro into three, so that we go from
this:
~~~
volatile gdb_exception ex;
TRY_CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
if (ex.reason < 0)
{
}
~~~
to this:
~~~
TRY
{
}
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
~~~
Thus, we'll be getting rid of the local volatile exception object, and
declaring the caught exception in the catch block.
This allows reimplementing TRY/CATCH in terms of C++ exceptions when
building in C++ mode, while still allowing to build GDB in C mode
(using setjmp/longjmp), as a transition step.
TBC, after this patch, is it _not_ valid to have code between the TRY
and the CATCH blocks, like:
TRY
{
}
// some code here.
CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ERROR)
{
}
END_CATCH
Just like it isn't valid to do that with C++'s native try/catch.
By switching to creating the exception object inside the CATCH block
scope, we can get rid of all the explicitly allocated volatile
exception objects all over the tree, and map the CATCH block more
directly to C++'s catch blocks.
The majority of the TRY_CATCH -> TRY+CATCH+END_CATCH conversion was
done with a script, rerun from scratch at every rebase, no manual
editing involved. After the mechanical conversion, a few places
needed manual intervention, to fix preexisting cases where we were
using the exception object outside of the TRY_CATCH block, and cases
where we were using "else" after a 'if (ex.reason) < 0)' [a CATCH
after this patch]. The result was folded into this patch so that GDB
still builds at each incremental step.
END_CATCH is necessary for two reasons:
First, because we name the exception object in the CATCH block, which
requires creating a scope, which in turn must be closed somewhere.
Declaring the exception variable in the initializer field of a for
block, like:
#define CATCH(EXCEPTION, mask) \
for (struct gdb_exception EXCEPTION; \
exceptions_state_mc_catch (&EXCEPTION, MASK); \
EXCEPTION = exception_none)
would avoid needing END_CATCH, but alas, in C mode, we build with C90,
which doesn't allow mixed declarations and code.
Second, because when TRY/CATCH are wired to real C++ try/catch, as
long as we need to handle cleanup chains, even if there's no CATCH
block that wants to catch the exception, we need for stop at every
frame in the unwind chain and run cleanups, then rethrow. That will
be done in END_CATCH.
After we require C++, we'll still need TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH until
cleanups are completely phased out -- TRY/CATCH in C++ mode will
save/restore the current cleanup chain, like in C mode, and END_CATCH
catches otherwise uncaugh exceptions, runs cleanups and rethrows, so
that C++ cleanups and exceptions can coexist.
IMO, this still makes the TRY/CATCH code look a bit more like a
newcomer would expect, so IMO worth it even if we weren't considering
C++.

(throw_exception): Adjust.
* common/common-exceptions.h (exceptions_state_mc_init): Remove
all parameters.
(exceptions_state_mc_catch): Declare.

Adjust all callers of TRY_CATCH to use TRY/CATCH/END_CATCH
instead.
This patch makes readline append new history lines to the GDB history
file on exit instead of overwriting the entire history file on exit.
This change allows us to run multiple simultaneous GDB sessions without
having each session overwrite the added history of each other session on
exit.
Care must be taken to ensure that the history file doesn't get corrupted
when multiple GDB processes are trying to simultaneously append to and
then truncate it. Safety is achieved in such a situation by using an
intermediate local history file to mutually exclude multiple processes
from simultaneously performing write operations on the global history
file.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* top.h (gdb_add_history): Declare.
* top.c (command_count): New variable.
(gdb_add_history): New function.
(gdb_safe_append_history): New static function.
(quit_force): Call it.
(command_line_input): Use gdb_add_history instead of
add_history.
* event-top.c (command_line_handler): Likewise.
The type of the function pointer PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer (part of the
Python C API), which we use, slightly changed starting with Python 3.4. The
signature went from
PyAPI_DATA(char) *(*PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer)(FILE *, FILE *, char *);
to
PyAPI_DATA(char) *(*PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer)(FILE *, FILE *, const char *);
The parameter that changed is the prompt text.
This commits adjust gdb accordingly by making the prompt_arg parameter
const, as well as the fallouts of that. I needed to rework how
annotations are added to the prompt, since the it is now const. If
annotations are enabled, it will make a copy of the prompt overwrite the
prompt variable that is used throughout the function. Otherwise, no copy
is done and the original prompt_arg value is passed.
I changed the signature of deprecated_readline_hook. I would've changed any
user of it, but it seems like nothing is using it,
Built-tested with python 2.7.x, 3.3.y and 3.4.z.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* defs.h (gdb_readline): Constify argument.
(gdb_readline_wrapper): Same.
(command_line_input): Same.
(deprecated_readline_hook): Same.
* top.c (deprecated_readline_hook): Same.
(gdb_readline): Same.
(gdb_readline_wrapper): Same.
(command_line_input): Constify argument. Pass prompt to
called functions instead of local_prompt, overwriting prompt
if using annotations.
* event-top.h (display_gdb_prompt): Constify argument.
* event-top.c (display_gdb_prompt): Same.
* python/py-gdb-readline.c (gdbpy_readline_wrapper): Constify
argument if building with Python 3.4 and up.

This patch fixes the annoying bug where key sequences such as Alt_F or
Alt_B (go forward or backwards by a word) do not behave promptly in TUI.
You have to press a third key in order for the key sequence to register.
This is mostly ncurses' fault. Calling wgetch() normally causes ncurses
to read only a single key from stdin. However if the key read is the
start-sequence key (^[ a.k.a. ESC) then wgetch() reads TWO keys from
stdin, storing the 2nd key into an internal FIFO buffer and returning
the start-sequence key. The extraneous read of the 2nd key makes us
miss its corresponding stdin event, so the event loop blocks until a
third key is pressed. This explains why such key sequences do not
behave promptly in TUI.
To fix this issue, we must somehow compensate for the missed stdin event
corresponding to the 2nd byte of a key sequence. This patch achieves
this by hacking up the stdin event handler to conditionally execute the
readline callback multiple times in a row. This is done via a new
global variable, call_stdin_event_handler_again_p, which is set from
tui_getc() when we receive a start-sequence key and notice extra pending
input in the ncurses buffer.
Tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* event-top.h (call_stdin_event_handler_again_p): Declare.
* event-top.c (call_stdin_event_handler_again_p): Define.
(stdin_event_handler): Use it.
* tui/tui-io.c (tui_getc): Prepare to call the stdin event
handler again if there is pending input following a
start sequence.
