Pedro Alves 3b12939dfc Replace the sync_execution global with a new enum prompt_state tristate
When sync_execution (a boolean) is true, it means we're running a
foreground command -- we hide the prompt stop listening to input, give
the inferior the terminal, then go to the event loop waiting for the
target to stop.

With multiple independent UIs, we need to track whether each UI is
synchronously blocked waiting for the target.  IOW, if you do
"continue" in one console, that console stops accepting commands, but
you should still be free to type other commands in the others
consoles.

Just simply making sync_execution be per-UI alone not sufficient,
because of this in fetch_inferior_event:

  /* If the inferior was in sync execution mode, and now isn't,
     restore the prompt (a synchronous execution command has finished,
     and we're ready for input).  */
  if (current_ui->async && was_sync && !sync_execution)
    observer_notify_sync_execution_done ();

We'd have to record at entry the "was_sync" state for each UI, not
just of the current UI.

This patch instead replaces the sync_execution flag by a per-UI
tristate flag indicating the command line prompt state:

 enum prompt_state
 {
   /* The command line is blocked simulating synchronous execution.
      This is used to implement the foreground execution commands
      ('run', 'continue', etc.).  We won't display the prompt and
      accept further commands until the execution is actually over.  */
   PROMPT_BLOCKED,

   /* The command finished; display the prompt before returning back to
      the top level.  */
   PROMPT_NEEDED,

   /* We've displayed the prompt already, ready for input.  */
   PROMPTED,
 ;

I think the end result is _much_ clearer than the current code, and,
it addresses the original motivation too.

	(command_line_handler): Set the prompt state to PROMPT_NEEDED
	before running a command, and display the prompt if still needed
	afterwards.
	* infcall.c (struct call_thread_fsm) <waiting_ui>: New field.
	(new_call_thread_fsm): New parameter 'waiting_ui'.  Store it.
	(call_thread_fsm_should_stop): Set the prompt state to
	PROMPT_NEEDED.
	(run_inferior_call): Adjust to temporarily set the prompt state to
	PROMPT_BLOCKED instead of using the sync_execution global.
	(call_function_by_hand_dummy): Pass the current UI to
	new_call_thread_fsm.
	* infcmd.c: Include top.h.
	(continue_1): Check the current UI's prompt state instead of the
	sync_execution global.
	(continue_command): Validate global execution state before calling
	prepare_execution_command.
	(step_1): Call all_uis_check_sync_execution_done.
	(attach_post_wait): Don't call async_enable_stdin here.  Remove
	reference to sync_execution.
	* infrun.c (sync_execution): Delete global.
	(follow_fork_inferior)
	(reinstall_readline_callback_handler_cleanup): Check the current
	UI's prompt state instead of the sync_execution global.
	(check_curr_ui_sync_execution_done)
	(all_uis_check_sync_execution_done): New functions.
	(fetch_inferior_event): Call all_uis_check_sync_execution_done
	instead of trying to determine whether the global sync execution
	changed.
	(handle_no_resumed): Check the prompt state of all UIs.
	(normal_stop): Emit the no unwait-for even to all PROMPT_BLOCKED
	UIs.  Emit the "Switching to" notification to all UIs.  Enable
	stdin in all UIs.
	* infrun.h (sync_execution): Delete.
	(all_uis_check_sync_execution_done): Declare.
	* main.c (captured_command_loop): Don't call
	interp_pre_command_loop if the prompt is blocked.
	(catch_command_errors, catch_command_errors_const): Adjust.
	(captured_main): Set the initial prompt state to PROMPT_NEEDED.
	* mi/mi-interp.c (display_mi_prompt): Set the prompt state to
	PROMPTED.
	(mi_interpreter_resume): Don't clear sync_execution.  Remove hack
	comment.
	(mi_execute_command_input_handler): Set the prompt state to
	PROMPT_NEEDED before executing the command, and only display the
	prompt if the prompt state is PROMPT_NEEDED afterwards.
	(mi_on_resume_1): Adjust to check the prompt state.
	* target.c (target_terminal_inferior): Adjust to check the prompt
	state.
	* top.c (wait_sync_command_done, maybe_wait_sync_command_done)
	(execute_command): Check the current UI's prompt state instead of
	sync_execution.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
