Rework data formatters matching algorithm
What happens now is that, for each category, the FormatNavigator generates all possible matches, and checks them one by one
Since the possible matches do not actually depend on the category (whether a match is accepted or not does, but that check can be shifted at a more convenient time),
it is actually feasible to generate every possible match upfront and then let individual categories just scan through those
This commit changes things by introducing a notion of formatters match candidate, and shifting responsibility for generating all of them given a (ValueObject,DynamicValueType) pair
from the FormatNavigator back to the FormatManager
A list of these candidates is then passed down to each category for matching
Candidates also need to remember whether they were generated by stripping pointers, references, typedefs, since this is something that individual formatters can choose to reject
This check, however, is conveniently only done once a "textual" match has been found, so that the list of candidates is truly category-independent
While the performance benefit is small (mostly, due to caching), this is much cleaner from a design perspective

Example code:
remote_platform = lldb.SBPlatform("remote-macosx");
remote_platform.SetWorkingDirectory("/private/tmp")
debugger.SetSelectedPlatform(remote_platform)
connect_options = lldb.SBPlatformConnectOptions("connect://localhost:1111");
err = remote_platform.ConnectRemote(connect_options)
if err.Success():
print >> result, 'Connected to remote platform:'
print >> result, 'hostname: %s' % (remote_platform.GetHostname())
src = lldb.SBFileSpec("/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/LLDB.framework", False)
dst = lldb.SBFileSpec()
# copy src to platform working directory since "dst" is empty
err = remote_platform.Install(src, dst);
if err.Success():
print >> result, '%s installed successfully' % (src)
else:
print >> result, 'error: failed to install "%s": %s' % (src, err)
Implemented many calls needed in lldb-platform to be able to install a directory that contains symlinks, file and directories.
The remote lldb-platform can now launch GDB servers on the remote system so that remote debugging can be spawned through the remote platform when connected to a remote platform.
The API in SBPlatform is subject to change and will be getting many new functions.

The demangler added in r193708 from cxa_demangle.cpp uses language features which are not supported by the latest visual studio. In order to preserve the msvc build, this patch restores the previous (non)functionality in windows under msvc by disabling the demangler.

pure virtual base class and made StackFrame a subclass of that. As
I started to build on top of that arrangement today, I found that it
wasn't working out like I intended. Instead I'll try sticking with
the single StackFrame class -- there's too much code duplication to
make a more complicated class hierarchy sensible I think.
llvm-svn: 193983
defines a protocol that all subclasses will implement. StackFrame
is currently the only subclass and the methods that Frame vends are
nearly identical to StackFrame's old methods.
Update all callers to use Frame*/Frame& instead of pointers to
StackFrames.
This is almost entirely a mechanical change that touches a lot of
the code base so I'm committing it alone. No new functionality is
added with this patch, no new subclasses of Frame exist yet.
I'll probably need to tweak some of the separation, possibly moving
some of StackFrame's methods up in to Frame, but this is a good
starting point.

FreeBSD includes the elftoolchain project's demangler in the base system.
It does not handle some unusual mangled names, so use the inlined
libcxxabi one.
llvm-svn: 193776
Inlined a copy of cxa_demangle.cpp from:
http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/libcxxabi/trunk/src/cxa_demangle.cpp
For systems that don't have demangling built into the system, and for systems that don't want to use the version that is installed. Defining LLDB_USE_BUILTIN_DEMANGLER in your build system allows you to use the built in demangler. This setting is curently automatically enabled for Windows builds.

Fixing a problem where ValueObject::GetPointeeData() would not accept "partial" valid reads (i.e. asking for 10 items and getting only 5 back)
While suboptimal, this situation is not a flat-out failure and could well be caused by legit scenarios, such as hitting a page boundary
Among others, this allows data formatters to print char* buffers allocated under libgmalloc

One of the things that dynamic typing affects is the count of children a type has
Clear out the flag that makes us blindly believe the children count when a dynamic type change is detected
llvm-svn: 193663
This commit reimplements the TypeImpl class (the class that backs SBType) in terms of a static,dynamic type pair
This is useful for those cases when the dynamic type of an ObjC variable can only be obtained in terms of an "hollow" type with no ivars
In that case, we could either go with the static type (+iVar information) or with the dynamic type (+inheritance chain)
With the new TypeImpl implementation, we try to combine these two sources of information in order to extract as much information as possible
This should improve the functionality of tools that are using the SBType API to do extensive dynamic type inspection
llvm-svn: 193564
Introduce a new boolean setting enable-auto-oneliner
This setting if set to false will force LLDB to not use the new compact one-line display
By default, one-line mode stays on, at least until we can be confident it works.
But now if it seriously impedes your workflow while it evolves/it works wonders but you still hate it, there's a way to turn it off

Extend DummySyntheticProvider to actually use debug-info vended children as the source of information
Make Python synthetic children either be valid, or fallback to the dummy, like their C++ counterparts
This allows LLDB to actually stop bailing out upon encountering an invalid synthetic children provider front-end, and still displaying the non synthetized ivar info
llvm-svn: 192741
Fixed Module::ResolveSymbolContextForAddress() to be able to also look in the SymbolVendor's SymbolFile's ObjectFile for a more meaningful symbol when a symbol lookup finds a synthetic symbol from the main object file. This will help lookups on MacOSX as the main executable might be stripped, but the dSYM file always has a full symbol table.
llvm-svn: 192510
Based on the POSIX x86_64 register context. This is sufficient for opening
a mips64 (big endian) core file. Subsequent changes will connect the
disassembler, dynamic loader support, ABI, etc.

ObjectFile::CopyData is used to copy a block of target memory to the
caller's buffer (e.g. for "memory read"). This should be a straight
memcpy, and not byte-swapped if the target and host have different
endianness.
Add a new DataExtractor::CopyData() method that performs this straight
copy and use it in ObjectFile::CopyData().

Constant ValueObjects should clear their description as well as their summary. Rationale being that both can depend on deeper-than-constified data
so both are subject to changes in "unpredictable" ways
To see this consider repeatedly po'ing a persistent variable of a type whose -description result changes at each invocation
llvm-svn: 192259
Formats (as in "type format") are now included in categories
The only bit missing is caching formats along with synthetic children and summaries, which might be now desirable
llvm-svn: 192217
that all clients use them explicitly. This will hopefully
prevent any future confusion where things get cast to types
we don't expect.
<rdar://problem/15146458>
llvm-svn: 191984
to be explicit, to prevent horrid things like
std::string a = ConstString("foo")
from taking the path ConstString -> bool -> char
-> std::string.
This fixes, among other things, ClangFunction.

DumpValueObject() 2.0
This checkin restores pre-Xcode5 functionality to the "po" (expr -O) command:
- expr now has a new --description-verbosity (-v) argument, which takes either compact or full as a value (-v is the same as -vfull)
When the full mode is on, "po" will show the extended output with type name, persistent variable name and value, as in
(lldb) expr -O -v -- foo
(id) $0 = 0x000000010010baf0 {
1 = 2;
2 = 3;
}
When -v is omitted, or -vcompact is passed, the Xcode5-style output will be shown, as in
(lldb) expr -O -- foo
{
1 = 2;
2 = 3;
}
- for a non-ObjectiveC object, LLDB will still try to retrieve a summary and/or value to display
(lldb) po 5
5
-v also works in this mode
(lldb) expr -O -vfull -- 5
(int) $4 = 5
On top of that, this is a major refactoring of the ValueObject printing code. The functionality is now factored into a ValueObjectPrinter class for easier maintenance in the future
DumpValueObject() was turned into an instance method ValueObject::Dump() which simply calls through to the printer code, Dump_Impl has been removed
Test case to follow
llvm-svn: 191694
Now that SBValues can be setup to ignore synthetic values, this is no longer necessary, and so m_suppress_synthetic_value can go away
Another Hack Bites the Dust

to build out the symbol table as addresses are used, and implements
the mechanism for ELF to add stripped symbols from eh_frame.
Uses this mechanism to allow disassembly for addresses corresponding
to stripped symbols for ELF, and provide hooks to implement this for
PE COFF.
Also removes eSymbolContextTailCall in favor of an option for
ResolveSymbolContextForAddress for consistency with the documentation
for eSymbolContextEverything. Essentially, this is just an option for
interpreting the so_addr.
llvm-svn: 191307
Specifically, allows the unwinder to handle the case where sc.function
gets resolved with a pc that is one past the address range of the function
(consistent with a tail call). However, there is no matching symbol.
Adds eSymbolContextTailCall to provide callers with control over the scope
of symbol resolution and to allow ResolveSymbolContextForAddress to handle
tail calls since this routine is common to unwind and disassembly.
llvm-svn: 191102
Targets and hosts today are little-endian (arm, x86), so this change
should be a no-op as they will not encounter the byte swapping cases.
Byte swapping will happen when cross debugging of big endian-targets
(e.g. MIPS, PPC) on a little-endian host (x86). Register- or word-
sized data copies need to be swapped, but calls to ExtractBytes or
CopyByteOrderedData that would invoke the swapping case are presumably
in error.

We cannot use "GetMaxU64Bitfield" for non-power-of-two sizes, so just use
the same code that handles N > 8 for these.

for the frame is one past the address range of the calling function.
- Lowers the fix from RegisterContextLLDB for use with disassembly
- Fixes one of three issues in the disassembly test in TestInferiorAssert.py
Also adds documentation that explains the resolution depths and interface.
Note: This change affects the resolution scope for eSymbolContextFunction
without impacting the performance of eSymbolContextSymbol.
