* Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> [2020-06-23 07:20:04 -0600]:
> This adds support for a gdb command file to be read early in startup.
> Code that wants to save an early setting can register a callback to be
> called to write to this file. This code is not yet used, but will be
> in subsequent patches.

I wonder if, as more options are added to this system, we will find
lots of similar code where we add a set/show option then add a writer
callback, where the callback just prints 'set blah value' to the file.
I'd like to propose the patch below. This applies on top of this
entire series. What the patch does is first, carry the
cmd_list_element pointer around along with the callback function.
Then a new default callback is added that uses the cmd_list_element to
build the string 'set blah value'. In some cases this will remove the
need to write a custom callback function.
What do you think? Feel free to integrate this with your series, or
not, as you see fit.
Thanks,
Andrew

gdb: introduce default_startup_writer_callback
A default function that can be used as the writer callback for options
that can be added to the startup file. This default builds the
command string from the cmd_list_element and should reduce the amount
of boilerplate code as more options are added to the startup config
system.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* cli/cli-setshow.c (write_startup_functions): Change type.
(write_startup_file): Update walk of write_startup_functions.
(default_startup_writer_callback): New function.
(add_default_startup_writer): New function.
* cli/cli-setshow.h (write_startup_setting_ftype): Update typedef.
(add_startup_writer): Add new parameter with default value.
(add_default_startup_writer): Declare new function.
* cli/cli-style.c (_initialize_cli_style): Update function
signature for lambda function.
* top.c (write_startup_quietly): Delete.
(init_main): Use add_default_startup_writer.
