Pedro Alves 17b2616cba PR gdb/13860: don't lose '-interpreter-exec console EXECUTION_COMMAND''s output in async mode.
The other part of PR gdb/13860 is about console execution commands in
MI getting their output half lost.  E.g., take the finish command,
executed on a frontend's GDB console:

sync:

  finish
  &"finish\n"
  ~"Run till exit from #0  usleep (useconds=10) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/usleep.c:27\n"
  ^running
  *running,thread-id="1"
  (gdb)
  ~"0x00000000004004d7 in foo () at stepinf.c:6\n"
  ~"6\t    usleep (10);\n"
  ~"Value returned is $1 = 0\n"
  *stopped,reason="function-finished",frame={addr="0x00000000004004d7",func="foo",args=[],file="stepinf.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/tests/stepinf.c",line="6"},thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="1"

async:

  finish
  &"finish\n"
  ~"Run till exit from #0  usleep (useconds=10) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/usleep.c:27\n"
  ^running
  *running,thread-id="1"
  (gdb)
  *stopped,reason="function-finished",frame={addr="0x00000000004004d7",func="foo",args=[],file="stepinf.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/tests/stepinf.c",line="6"},gdb-result-var="$1",return-value="0",thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="0"

Note how all the "Value returned" etc. output is missing in async mode.

The same happens with e.g., catchpoints:

  =breakpoint-modified,bkpt={number="1",type="catchpoint",disp="keep",enabled="y",what="22016",times="1"}
  ~"\nCatchpoint "
  ~"1 (forked process 22016), 0x0000003791cbd8a6 in __libc_fork () at ../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c:131\n"
  ~"131\t  pid = ARCH_FORK ();\n"
  *stopped,reason="fork",disp="keep",bkptno="1",newpid="22016",frame={addr="0x0000003791cbd8a6",func="__libc_fork",args=[],file="../nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c",fullname="/usr/src/debug/glibc-2.14-394-g8f3b1ff/nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fork.c",line="131"},thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="0"

where all those ~ lines are missing in async mode, or just the "step"
current line indication:

  s
  &"s\n"
  ^running
  *running,thread-id="all"
  (gdb)
  ~"13\t  foo ();\n"
  *stopped,frame={addr="0x00000000004004ef",func="main",args=[{name="argc",value="1"},{name="argv",value="0x7fffffffdd78"}],file="stepinf.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/tests/stepinf.c",line="13"},thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="3"
  (gdb)

Or in the case of the PRs example, the "Stopped due to shared library
event" note:

  start
  &"start\n"
  ~"Temporary breakpoint 1 at 0x400608: file ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/solib-main.c, line 21.\n"
  =breakpoint-created,bkpt={number="1",type="breakpoint",disp="del",enabled="y",addr="0x0000000000400608",func="main",file="../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/solib-main.c",fullname="/home/pedro/gdb/mygit/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/solib-main.c",line="21",times="0",original-location="main"}
  ~"Starting program: /home/pedro/gdb/mygit/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.mi/solib-main \n"
  =thread-group-started,id="i1",pid="21990"
  =thread-created,id="1",group-id="i1"
  ^running
  *running,thread-id="all"
  (gdb)
  =library-loaded,id="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2",target-name="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2",host-name="/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2",symbols-loaded="0",thread-group="i1"
  ~"Stopped due to shared library event (no libraries added or removed)\n"
  *stopped,reason="solib-event",thread-id="1",stopped-threads="all",core="3"
  (gdb)

IMO, if you're typing execution commands in a frontend's console, you
expect to see their output.  Indeed it's what you get in sync mode.  I
think async mode should do the same.  Deciding what to mirror to the
console wrt to breakpoints and random stops gets messy real fast.
E.g., say "s" trips on a breakpoint.  We'd clearly want to mirror the
event to the console in this case.  But what about more complicated
cases like "s&; thread n; s&", and one of those steps spawning a new
thread, and that thread hitting a breakpoint?  It's impossible in
general to track whether the thread had any relation to the commands
that had been executed.  So I think we should just simplify and always
mirror breakpoints and random events to the console.

Notes:

  - mi->out is the same as gdb_stdout when MI is the current
    interpreter.  I think that referring to that directly is cleaner.
    An earlier revision of this patch made the changes that are now
    done in mi_on_normal_stop directly in infrun.c:normal_stop, and so
    not having an obvious place to put the new uiout by then, and not
    wanting to abuse CLI's uiout, I made a temporary uiout when
    necessary.

  - Hopefuly the rest of the patch is more or less obvious given the
    comments added.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, no regressions.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
