Pedro Alves 85ad3aaf40 gdb: Coalesce/aggregate (async) vCont packets/actions
Currently, with "maint set target-non-stop on", that is, when gdb
connects with the non-stop/asynchronous variant of the remote
protocol, even with "set non-stop off", GDB always sends one vCont
packet per thread resumed.  This patch makes GDB aggregate and
coalesce vCont packets, so we send vCont packets like "vCont;s:p1.1;c"
in non-stop mode too.

Basically, this is done by:

  - Adding a new target method target_commit_resume that is called
    after calling target_resume one or more times.  When resuming a
    batch of threads, we'll only call target_commit_resume once after
    calling target_resume for all threads.

  - Making the remote target defer sending the actual vCont packet to
    target_commit_resume.

Special care must be taken to avoid sending a vCont action with a
"wildcard" thread-id (all threads of process / all threads) when that
would resume threads/processes that should not be resumed.  See
remote_commit_resume comments for details.

Unlike all-stop's remote_resume implementation, this handles the case
of too many actions resulting in a too-big vCont packet, by flushing
the vCont packet and starting a new one.

E.g., imagining that the "c" action in:

  vCont;s:1;c

overflows the packet buffer, we split the actions like:

  vCont;s:1
  vCont;c

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, with and without "maint set
target-non-stop on".

Also tested with a hack that makes remote_commit_resume flush the vCont
packet after every action appended (which caught a few bugs).

		   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.
