Normalize TRY_CATCH exception handling block
This normalizes some exception catch blocks that check for ex.reason to look like this: ~~~ volatile gdb_exception ex; TRY_CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ALL) { ... } if (ex.reason < 0) { ... } ~~~ This is a preparation step for running a script that converts all TRY_CATCH uses to look like this instead: ~~~ TRY { ... } CATCH (ex, RETURN_MASK_ALL) { ... } END_CATCH ~~~ The motivation for that change is being able to reimplent TRY/CATCH in terms of C++ try/catch. This commit makes it so that: - no condition other than ex.reason < 0 is checked in the if predicate - there's no "else" block to check whether no exception was caught - there's no code between the TRY_CATCH (TRY) block and the 'if (ex.reason < 0)' block (CATCH). - the exception object is no longer referred to outside the if/catch block. Note the local volatile exception objects that are currently defined inside functions that use TRY_CATCH will disappear. In cases it's more convenient to still refer to the exception outside the catch block, a new non-volatile local is added and copy to that object is made within the catch block. The following patches should make this all clearer. gdb/ChangeLog: 2015-03-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * amd64-tdep.c (amd64_frame_cache, amd64_sigtramp_frame_cache) (amd64_epilogue_frame_cache): Normal exception handling code. * break-catch-throw.c (check_status_exception_catchpoint) (re_set_exception_catchpoint): Ditto. * cli/cli-interp.c (safe_execute_command): * cli/cli-script.c (script_from_file): Ditto. * compile/compile-c-symbols.c (generate_c_for_for_one_variable): Ditto. * compile/compile-object-run.c (compile_object_run): Ditto. * cp-abi.c (baseclass_offset): Ditto. * cp-valprint.c (cp_print_value): Ditto. * exceptions.c (catch_exceptions_with_msg): * frame-unwind.c (frame_unwind_try_unwinder): Ditto. * frame.c (get_frame_address_in_block_if_available): Ditto. * i386-tdep.c (i386_frame_cache, i386_epilogue_frame_cache) (i386_sigtramp_frame_cache): Ditto. * infcmd.c (post_create_inferior): Ditto. * linespec.c (parse_linespec, find_linespec_symbols): * p-valprint.c (pascal_object_print_value): Ditto. * parse.c (parse_expression_for_completion): Ditto. * python/py-finishbreakpoint.c (bpfinishpy_init): Ditto. * remote.c (remote_get_noisy_reply): Ditto. * s390-linux-tdep.c (s390_frame_unwind_cache): Ditto. * solib-svr4.c (solib_svr4_r_map): Ditto.
