Add debug output about skipping files and functions
While trying to create skips for libstdc++, I found myself debugging GDB
quite a bit, mostly to find out what the exact function name to match
is. I thought it would make sense to have this information as debug
output.
This patch adds "set debug skip on|off".
gdb/ChangeLog:
* skip.c (debug_skip): New variable.
(skiplist_entry::do_skip_file_p): Add debug output.
(skiplist_entry::do_skip_gfile_p): Likewise.
(skiplist_entry::skip_function_p): Likewise.
(_initialize_step_skip): Create debug command.
* NEWS: Mention set/show debug skip.
gdb/doc/ChangeLog:
* gdb.texinfo (Skipping Over Functions and Files): Document
set/show debug skip.
