yes,I can set a breakpoint at the exit of a function in this way,but it can
only be used once, because when I modified my code,the exit address of the
function will also change,so I must modify "the gdb command file"
synchronously.I use the gdb command in this way "gdb -p $(pidof vmserver) -x
cmd.txt",and the gdb command lies in the file(cmd.txt).the file content is:
    b CDeviceMgr::queryPhyDevsInDomain
    command
    silent
    p pcUserCode
    c
    end

    c
In this way,I can watch the input parameters of the function,but how to watch
the output parameters?
I hope that I can set the exit breakpoint as simple as the entrance
breakpoint.The most important thing is that I hope,when I modified my code,the
gdb command file will be no need to modify synchronously.
