Subject: [patch] TUI: Permit stepi on stripped code
Hi,
nick <cinolt> on #gdb@freenode complained one cannot stepi on stripped binary.
echo -e '#include<unistd.h>\nint main(void){return alarm(0);}'|gcc -Wall -s -x c -;./gdbtui ./a.out -nx -ex 'layout asm' -ex 'b alarm' -ex r -ex fini
will:
0x7ffff7ae25c0 <alarm> mov $0x25,%eax
-------------------------------------------------
(gdb) p/x $pc
$1 = 0x4004d2
(gdb) stepi
No function contains program counter for selected frame.
(gdb) p/x $pc
$2 = 0x4004d2
That is the window still displays stale content, stepi does not work at all.

With the fix stepi works and the window correctly displays:
0x4004d2 pop %rbp
-------------------------------------------------
I haven't found any TUI testsuite.
I will check it in (after regression testing(?)) in some time.
Thanks,
