This adjusts target remote to tell the core whether a trap was caused by a breakpoint. To that end, the patch teaches GDB about new RSP stop reasons "T05 swbreak" and "T05 hwbreak", that remote targets report back to GDB, similarly to how "T05 watch" indicates a stop caused by a watchpoint. Because targets that can report these events are expected to themselves adjust the PC after a software breakpoint, these new stop reasons must only be reported if the stub is talking to a GDB that understands them. Because of that, the use of the new stop reasons needs to be handshaked on initial connection, using the qSupported mechanism. GDB simply sends "swbreak+" in its qSupports query, and the stub reports back "swbreak+" too. Because these new stop reasons are required to fix a fundamental non-stop mode problem, this commit extends the remote non-stop intro section in the manual, documenting the events as required. To be clear, GDB will still cope with remote targets that don't support these new stop reasons; it will behave just like today. Tested on x86-64 Fedora 20, native and gdbserver. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-03-04 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * NEWS: Mention the new "swbreak" and "hwbreak" stop reasons. * remote.c (struct remote_state) <remote_stopped_by_watchpoint_p>: Delete field. <stop_reason>: New field.
