gdb: fix 'maint info inline-frames' after 'stepi'
There is an invalid assumption within 'maint info inline-frames' which triggers an assert: (gdb) stepi 0x000000000040119d 18 printf ("Hello World\n"); (gdb) maintenance info inline-frames ../../src/gdb/inline-frame.c:554: internal-error: maintenance_info_inline_frames: Assertion `it != inline_states.end ()' failed. A problem internal to GDB has been detected, further debugging may prove unreliable. ----- Backtrace ----- ... etc ... The problem is this assert: /* Stopped threads always have cached inline_state information. */ gdb_assert (it != inline_states.end ()); If you check out infrun.c and look in handle_signal_stop for the call to skip_inline_frames then you'll find a rather large comment that explains that we don't always compute the inline state information for performance reasons. So the assertion is not valid. I've updated the code so that if there is cached information we use that, but if there is not then we just create our own information for the current $pc of the current thread. This means that, if there is cached information, GDB still correctly shows which frame the inferior is in (it might not be in the inner most frame). If there is no cached information we will always display the inferior as being in the inner most frame, but that's OK, because if skip_inline_frames has not been called then GDB will have told the user they are in the inner most frame, so everything lines up. I've extended the test to check 'maint info inline-frames' after a stepi which would previously have triggered the assertion.
