[gdb] Handle ^C during disassembly
In PR gdb/32025, a fatal error was reported when sending a SIGINT to gdb while disassembling. I managed to reproduce this on aarch64-linux in a Leap 15.5 container using this trigger patch: ... gdb_disassembler_memory_reader::dis_asm_read_memory (bfd_vma memaddr, gdb_byte *myaddr, unsigned int len, struct disassemble_info *info) noexcept { + set_quit_flag (); return target_read_code (memaddr, myaddr, len); } ... and a simple gdb command line calling the disassemble command: ... $ gdb -q -batch a.out -ex "disassemble main" ... The following scenario leads to the fatal error: - the disassemble command is executed, - set_quit_flag is called in gdb_disassembler_memory_reader::dis_asm_read_memory, pretending that a user pressed ^C, - target_read_code calls QUIT, which throws a gdb_exception_quit, - the exception propagation mechanism reaches c code in libopcodes and a fatal error triggers because the c code is not compiled with -fexception. Fix this by: - wrapping the body of gdb_disassembler_memory_reader::dis_asm_read_memory in catch_exceptions (which consequently needs moving to a header file), and - reraising the caught exception in default_print_insn using QUIT. Tested on aarch64-linux. Approved-By: Andrew Burgess <aburgess@redhat.com> Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32025
