Instead of writing an error message to (gdbserver's) stderr and then
returning back "E01" to GDB, send the error message to GDB directly
using the E.MSG format, so the user can potentially see it. Several
places in the code already do this manually. This patch adds a new
function (write_error_msg) that abstracts out the "E." prefix detail.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
yyyy-mm-dd Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* remote-utils.c (write_error_msg): New function.
* remote-utils.h (write_error_msg): Declare.
* server.c (handle_btrace_general_set)
(handle_btrace_conf_general_set, handle_general_set)
(handle_qxfer_btrace, handle_qxfer_btrace_conf, resume)
(handle_v_requests): Use write_error_msg.
