The simplest way. Set breakpoint on the desired command, and then hit
'c'.

at the gdb prompt, just say

gdb> b <line_no_after_the_loop>

That will take you to the line after the loop.

(gdb) help until
Execute until the program reaches a source line greater than the current
or a specified location (same args as break command) within the current
