[gdb, c++] Improve error message when using libstdcxx without SDT probes
When using catch catch/rethrow/catch, a libstdcxx with SDT probes is required for both the regexp argument, and the convenience variable $_exception ( https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Set-Catchpoints.html ). Currently, when using these features with a libstdcxx without SDT probes, we get the cryptic error message: ... not stopped at a C++ exception catchpoint ... Improve this by instead emitting the more helpful: ... did not find exception probe (does libstdcxx have SDT probes?) ... Tested on x86_64-linux. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-08-26 Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de> PR c++/24852 * break-catch-throw.c (fetch_probe_arguments): Improve error mesage when pc_probe.prob == NULL. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: 2019-08-26 Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de> PR c++/24852 * gdb.cp/no-libstdcxx-probe.exp: New test.
