            Bug ID: 15814
           Summary: Improve "skip file X" behaviour in .gdbinit to allow
                    quiet adding of skip entries
           Product: gdb
           Version: 7.6
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: cli
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org

Patch for "server skip file X"

I want my gdb to always skip the system headers. But adding (say) "skip file
/usr/include/c++/4.6/debug/safe_iterator.h" to the .gdbinit file will get
ignored as there's nothing loaded at that point.

The attached patch changes the default behaviour to assume you want the skip to
apply to future loads. Also if you use "server skip file X", it will hide the
"File X will be skipped when stepping" message so you can quietly add skips.

Looks like this is obsolete now.

The skip is no longer ignored.  It's still noisy but you can
suppress it:

| skip file /usr/include/blah.h | cat > /dev/null
