Add new commands to specifically enable and disable tui mode. This is
in addition to the readline bindings, but might be easier for a user to
discover if they accidentally end up in tui mode.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* NEWS: Mention 'tui enable' and 'tui disable'.
* tui/tui.c (tui_enable_command): New function.
(tui_disable_command): New function.
(_initialize_tui): New function.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (TUI): Include 'tui enable' in the introduction.
(TUI Commands): Add 'tui enable' and 'tui disable' details.
Use with_test_prefix to avoid duplicating test names when calling
the procedure test_gdbinit_history_setting multiple times.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/gdbinit-history.exp (test_gdbinit_history_setting):
Use with_test_prefix.
Use cleanup to avoid leaking memory if an error occurs during tui
start up.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-layout.c (tui_set_layout_for_display_command): Ensure
buf_ptr is freed.
Calling tui_enable too early in tui_layout_command can leave the tui in
an enabled state if the user has entered an invalid layout name.
Instead postpone the call to tui_enable until later in
tui_set_layout_for_display_command just before the layout is changed.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-layout.c (tui_layout_command): Move call to tui_enable
into ...
(tui_set_layout_for_display_command): ...here, before calling
tui_set_layout. Only set the layout if gdb has not already
entered the TUI_FAILURE state.
Add layout name completion for the layout command.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-layout.c (layout_completer): New function.
(_initialize_tui_layout): Set completer on layout command.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.base/completion.exp: Add test for completion of layout
names.
The layout command supports the layout names $FREGS, $GREGS, $SREGS,
and $REGS. The intention of these layout names was to display the tui
register window with a specific set of registers.
First, these layout names no longer work, and haven't for a while, using
any of them will just result in switching to the general register view.
Second there is already the command 'tui reg GROUP' command to set the
displayed register set to GROUP, so making the layout command also
control the register set feels like unnecessary overloading of the
layout command.
This commit removes all code relating to supporting the register set
specific names from the layout command. Afterwards the user can select
an available layout using the layout command, and control the choice of
register set using the 'tui reg GROUP' command.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* tui/tui-layout.c (tui_set_layout): Remove
tui_register_display_type parameter. Remove all checking of this
parameter, and reindent function. Update header comment.
(tui_set_layout_for_display_command): Rename to...

Add a new predicate procedure to the gdb.exp library 'skip_tui_tests',

When using a conditional breakpoint where the condition evaluated
to false a large number of times before the program stopped,
a user reported that GDB's memory consumption was growing very
quickly until it ran out of memory.
The problem was tracked down to temporary struct values being created
each time the program stops and handles an inferior event. Because
the breakpoint condition usually evaluates to false, there can be
a fairly large number of such events to be handled before we eventually
return the prompt to the user (which is when we would normally purge
such values).
This patch fixes the issue by making sure that handle_inferior_event
releases all new values created during its execution.

cleanup which will free that objfile and NAME then becomes a stale pointer.

It is planned the existing GDB command 'print' will be able to evaluate its
expressions using the compiler. There will be some option to choose between
the existing GDB evaluation and the compiler evaluation. But as an
intermediate step this patch provides the expression printing feature as a new
command.
I can imagine it could be also called 'maintenance compile print' as in the
future one should be able to use its functionality by the normal 'print'
command.
There was a discussion with Eli about the command name:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-03/msg00880.html
As there were no other comments yet I haven't renamed it yet, before there is
some confirmation about settlement on the final name.

For a reason unknown to me GDB was using -w instead of -Wall for 'compile code'.
The problem is later patch for 'compile printf' really needs some warnings to
be able to catch for example missing format string parameters:
(gdb) compile printf "%d\n"
GCC does not seem to be able to cancel -w (there is nothing like -no-w).
Besides that I think even 'compile code' can benefit from -Wall.
That #ifndef change in print_one_macro() is needed otherwise we get
macro-redefinition warnings for the GCC built-in macros (as -w is no
longer in effect). For example, without the #ifndef/#endif one gets:
compile -r -- void _gdb_expr(){int i = 5;}^M
/tmp/gdbobj-xpU1yB/out4.c:4:0: warning: "__FILE__" redefined [-Wbuiltin-macro-redefined]^M
/tmp/gdbobj-xpU1yB/out4.c:5:0: warning: "__LINE__" redefined^M
...
It makes more sense to pick the inferior's version of the macros, hence
#ifndef instead of #undef.
That new testsuite XFAIL is there as if one changes the struct definition to be
compliant with cv-qualifiers (to prevent the warnings):
struct struct_type {
- struct struct_type *selffield;
+ volatile struct struct_type *selffield;
only then GCC/GDB will hit the crash, described in that GDB PR 18202.

In Ada, index types of arrays can be enumeration types, and enumeration
types can be non-contiguous. In which case the address of elements is
not given by the value of the index, but by its position in the enumeration
type.
In other words, in this example:
type Color is (Blue, Red);
for Color use (Blue => 8, Red => 12, Green => 16);
type A is array (Color) of Integer;
type B is array (1 .. 3) of Integer;
Arrays of type A and B will have the same layout in memory, even if
the enumeration Color has a hole in its set of integer value.
Since recently support for such a feature was in ada-lang.c, where the
array was casted to a regular continuous index range. We were losing
the information of index type. And this was not quite working for
subranges in variable-length fields; their bounds are expressed using
the integer value of the bounds, not its position in the enumeration,
and there was some confusion all over ada-lang.c as to whether we had
the position or the integer value was used for indexes.
The idea behind this patch is to clean this up by keeping the real
representation of these array index types and bounds when representing
the value, and only use the position when accessing the elements or
computing the length. This first patch fixes the printing of such
an array.
To the best of my knowledge, this feature only exists in Ada so it
should only affect this language.
