Pedro Alves 372316f128 Teach non-stop to do in-line step-overs (stop all, step, restart)
That is, step past breakpoints by:

 - pausing all threads
 - removing breakpoint at PC
 - single-step
 - reinsert breakpoint
 - restart threads

similarly to all-stop (with displaced stepping disabled).  This allows
non-stop to work on targets/architectures without displaced stepping
support.  That is, it makes displaced stepping an optimization instead
of a requirement.  For example, in principle, all GNU/Linux ports
support non-stop mode at the target_ops level, but not all
corresponding gdbarch's implement displaced stepping.  This should
make non-stop work for all (albeit, not as efficiently).  And then
there are scenarios where even if the architecture supports displaced
stepping, we can't use it, because we e.g., don't find a usable
address to use as displaced step scratch pad.  It should also fix
stepping past watchpoints on targets that have non-continuable
watchpoints in non-stop mode (e.g., PPC, untested).  Running the
instruction out of line in the displaced stepping scratch pad doesn't
help that case, as the copied instruction reads/writes the same
watched memory...  We can fix that too by teaching GDB to only remove
the watchpoint from the thread that we want to move past the
watchpoint (currently, removing a watchpoint always removes it from
all threads), but again, that can be considered an optimization; not
all targets would support it.

For those familiar with the gdb and gdbserver Linux target_ops
backends, the implementation should look similar, except it is done on
the core side.  When we pause threads, we may find they stop with an
interesting event that should be handled later when the thread is
re-resumed, thus we store such events in the thread object, and mark
the event as pending.  We should only consume pending events if the
thread is indeed resumed, thus we add a new "resumed" flag to the
thread object.  At a later stage, we might add new target methods to
accelerate some of this, like "pause all threads", with corresponding
RSP packets, but we'd still need a fallback method for remote targets
that don't support such packets, so, again, that can be deferred as
optimization.

My _real_ motivation here is making it possible to reimplement
all-stop mode on top of the target always working on non-stop mode, so
that e.g., we can send RSP packets to a remote target even while the
target is running -- can't do that in the all-stop RSP variant, by
design).

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, with and without "set displaced off"
forced.  The latter forces the new code paths whenever GDB needs to
step past a breakpoint.

gdb/ChangeLog:
2015-08-07  Pedro Alves  <pedro@codesourcery.com>

	* breakpoint.c (breakpoints_should_be_inserted_now): If any thread
	has a pending status, return true.
	* gdbthread.h: Include target/waitstatus.h.
	(struct thread_suspend_state) <stop_reason, waitstatus_pending_p,
	stop_pc>: New fields.
	(struct thread_info) <resumed>: New field.
	(set_resumed): Declare.
	* infrun.c: Include "event-loop.h".
	(infrun_async_inferior_event_token, infrun_is_async): New globals.
	(infrun_async): New function.
	(clear_step_over_info): Add debug output.
	(displaced_step_in_progress_any_inferior): New function.
	(displaced_step_fixup): New returns int.
	(start_step_over): Handle in-line step-overs too.  Assert the
	thread is marked resumed.
	(resume_cleanups): Clear the thread's resumed flag.
	(resume): Set the thread's resumed flag.  Return early if the
	thread has a pending status.  Allow stepping a breakpoint with no
	signal.
	(proceed): Adjust to check 'resumed' instead of 'executing'.
	(clear_proceed_status_thread): If the thread has a pending status,
	and that status is a finished step, discard the pending status.
	(clear_proceed_status): Don't clear step_over_info here.
	(random_pending_event_thread, do_target_wait): New functions.
	(prepare_for_detach, wait_for_inferior, fetch_inferior_event): Use
	do_target_wait.
	(wait_one): New function.
	(THREAD_STOPPED_BY): New macro.
	(thread_stopped_by_watchpoint, thread_stopped_by_sw_breakpoint)
	(thread_stopped_by_hw_breakpoint): New functions.
	(switch_to_thread_cleanup, save_waitstatus, stop_all_threads): New
	functions.
	(handle_inferior_event): Also call set_resumed(false) on all
	threads implicitly stopped by the event.
	(restart_threads, resumed_thread_with_pending_status): New
	functions.
	(finish_step_over): If we were doing an in-line step-over before,
	and no longer are after trying to start a new step-over, restart
	all threads.  If we have multiple threads with pending events,
	save the current event and go through the event loop again.
	(handle_signal_stop): Return early if finish_step_over returns
	false.
	<random signal>: If we get a signal while stepping over a
	breakpoint in-line in non-stop mode, restart all threads.  Clear
	step_over_info before delivering the signal.
	(keep_going_stepped_thread): Use internal_error instead of
	gdb_assert.  Mark the thread as resumed.
	(keep_going_pass_signal): Assert the thread isn't already resumed.
	If some other thread is doing an in-line step-over, defer the
	resume.  If we just started a new in-line step-over, stop all
	threads.  Don't clear step_over_info.
	(infrun_async_inferior_event_handler): New function.
	(_initialize_infrun): Create async event handler with
	infrun_async_inferior_event_handler as callback.
	(infrun_async): New declaration.
	* target.c (target_async): New function.
	* target.h (target_async): Declare macro and readd as function
	declaration.
	* target/waitstatus.h (enum target_stop_reason)
	<TARGET_STOPPED_BY_SINGLE_STEP>: New value.
	* thread.c (new_thread): Clear the new waitstatus field.
	(set_resumed): New function.
