[4/4] gdb: check max-value-size when reading strings for printf
Commit Message
I noticed that the printf code for strings, printf_c_string and
printf_wide_c_string, don't take max-value-size into account, but do
load a complete string from the inferior into a GDB buffer.
As such it would be possible for an badly behaved inferior to cause
GDB to try and allocate an excessively large buffer, potentially
crashing GDB, or at least causing GDB to swap lots, which isn't
great.
We already have a setting to protect against this sort of thing, the
'max-value-size'. So this commit updates the two function mentioned
above to check the max-value-size and give an error if the
max-value-size is exceeded.
If the max-value-size is exceeded, I chose to continue reading
inferior memory to figure out how long the string actually is, we just
don't store the results. The benefit of this is that when we give the
user an error we can tell the user how big the string actually is,
which would allow them to correctly adjust max-value-size, if that's
what they choose to do.
The default for max-value-size is 64k so there should be no user
visible changes after this commit, unless the user was previously
printing very large strings. If that is the case then the user will
now need to increase max-value-size.

I'm happy with this change, but I wonder if it's user-visible enough to
warrant a NEWS entry.
Tom
Tom suggested this change should have a NEWS entry, so I added one.
There's no changes to the rest of the patch.
Thanks,
Andrew
