Don't set immediate_quit in prompt_for_continue
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
immediate_quit used to be necessary back when prompt_for_continue used
blocking fread, but nowadays it uses gdb_readline_wrapper, which is
implemented in terms of a nested event loop, which already knows how
to react to SIGINT:

 #0  throw_it (reason=RETURN_QUIT, error=GDB_NO_ERROR, fmt=0x9d6d7e "Quit", ap=0x7fffffffcb88)
     at .../src/gdb/common/common-exceptions.c:324
 #1  0x00000000007bab5d in throw_vquit (fmt=0x9d6d7e "Quit", ap=0x7fffffffcb88) at .../src/gdb/common/common-exceptions.c:366

     at .../src/gdb/top.c:873

The need for the QUIT in stdin_event_handler is then exposed by the
gdb.base/double-prompt-target-event-error.exp test, which has:

	# We're now stopped in a pagination query while handling a
	# target event (printing where the program stopped).  Quitting
	# the pagination should result in only one prompt being
	# output.
	send_gdb "\003p 1\n"

Without that change we'd get:

 Continuing.
 ---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---PASS: gdb.base/double-prompt-target-event-error.exp: ctrlc target event: continue: continue to pagination
 ^CpQuit
 (gdb)  1
 Undefined command: "1".  Try "help".
 (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/double-prompt-target-event-error.exp: ctrlc target event: continue: first prompt
 ERROR: Undefined command "".
 UNRESOLVED: gdb.base/double-prompt-target-event-error.exp: ctrlc target event: continue: no double prompt

Vs:

 Continuing.
 ---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---PASS: gdb.base/double-prompt-target-event-error.exp: ctrlc target event: continue: continue to pagination
 ^CQuit
 (gdb) p 1
 $1 = 1
 (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/double-prompt-target-event-error.exp: ctrlc target event: continue: first prompt
 PASS: gdb.base/double-prompt-target-event-error.exp: ctrlc target event: continue: no double prompt
