Enabling target-async by default will require implementing sync
execution on top of an async target, much like foreground command are
implemented on the CLI in async mode.
In order to do that, we will need better control of when to print the
MI prompt. Currently the interp->display_prompt_p hook is all we
have, and MI just always returns false, meaning, make
display_gdb_prompt a no-op. We'll need to be able to know to print
the MI prompt in some of the conditions that display_gdb_prompt is
called from the core, but not all.
This is all a litte twisted currently. As we can see,
display_gdb_prompt is really CLI specific, so make the console
interpreters (console/tui) themselves call it. To be able to do that,
and add a few different observers that the interpreters can use to
distinguish when or why the the prompt is being printed:
#1 - one called whenever a command is cancelled due to an error.
#2 - another for when a foreground command just finished.
In both cases, CLI wants to print the prompt, while MI doesn't.
MI will want to print the prompt in the second case when in a special
MI mode.
The display_gdb_prompt call in interp_set made me pause. The comment
there reads:
/* Finally, put up the new prompt to show that we are indeed here.
Also, display_gdb_prompt for the console does some readline magic
which is needed for the console interpreter, at least... */
But, that looks very much like a no-op to me currently:
- the MI interpreter always return false in the prompt hook, meaning
actually display no prompt.
- the interpreter used at that point is still quiet. And the
console/tui interpreters return false in the prompt hook if they're
quiet, meaning actually display no prompt.
The only remaining possible use would then be the readline magic. But
whatever that might have been, it's not reacheable today either,
because display_gdb_prompt returns early, before touching readline if
the interpreter returns false in the display_prompt_p hook.
Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, sync and async modes.

handled, one of those being to place SSS breakpoints on the breakpoint
chain as all other breakpoints, annota1.exp times out with lots and
lots of breakpoint-invalid and frame-changed annotations. All those
extra annotations are actually unnecessary. For one, SSS breakpoints
are internal breakpoints, so the frontend shouldn't care if they were
added, removed or changed. Then, there's really no point in emitting
"breakpoints-invalid" or "frames-invalid" more than once between times
the frontend/user can actually issues GDB commands; the frontend will
have to wait for the GDB prompt to refresh its state, so emitting
those annotations at most once between prompts is enough. Non-stop or
async would complicate this, but no frontend will be using annotations
in those modes (one of goes of emacs switching to MI was non-stop mode
support, AFAIK). The previous patch reveals there has been an
intention in the past to suppress multiple breakpoints-invalid
annotations caused by ignore count changes. As the previous patch
shows, that's always been broken, but in any case, this patch actually
makes it work. The next patch will remove several annotation-specific
calls in breakpoint.c in favor of always using the breakpoint modified
& friends observers, and that causes yet more of these annotations,
because several calls to the corresponding annotate_* functions in
breakpoint.c are missing, particularly in newer code.
So all in all, here's a simple mechanism that avoids sending the same
annotation to the frontend more than once until gdb is ready to accept
further commands.
