This is an attempt to feature the user-facing resources more

I also moved the "Why a new debugger" section to the "Goals"

This renames the "Goals & Status" section to "Project" and the

The page describing how to get the sources was more about contributing
to LLDB than getting the actual source. This patch moves some things
around and repurposes this page as a contributing to LLDB landing page.
This leads to a configuration error because we're trying to get a

get_target_property() called with non-existent target "swig_wrapper"
CMake allows you to set a custom CXX compiler for the API test suite.
However, this variable is never used, because dotest uses the same
compiler to build C and CXX sources.
I'm not sure if this variable was added with the intention of supporting
a different compiler or if this is just a remnant of old functionality.
Given that this hasn't been working for a while, I assume it's safe to
remove.

This patch removes the -q (quiet) flag and changing the default
behavior. Currently the flag serves two purposes that are somewhat
contradictory, as illustrated by the difference between the argument
name (quiet) and the configuration flag (parsable). On the one hand it
reduces output, but on the other hand it prints more output, like the
result of individual tests. My proposal is to guard the extra output
behind the verbose flag and always print the individual test results.

it reads the list of modules from the inferior memory, but other uses are possible.

debugserver. thread-pcs has a comma separated list of base 16
addresses - the current pc value for every thread in the process.
It is a partner of the "threads:" key where a list of thread IDs
is given. The pc values in thread-pcs correspond one-to-one with
the thread IDs in the threads list.
This is a part of performance work. When lldb is instruction
stepping / fast stepping over a range of addresses for e.g. a "next"
command, and it steps in to another function, lldb will put a
breakpoint on the return address and continue the process. Before
it calls continue, it calls Thread::SetupForResume on all the
threads, and SetupForResume needs to get the current pc value for
every thread to see if any are at a breakpoint site.
The result is that issuing a "c" continue requires that we send
"read pc register" packets for every thread.
We may do this sequence of step-into-function / continue-to-get-out
many times for a single user-visible "next" or "step" command, and
with highly multithreaded programs, we are sending many extra
packets to get all the thread values.
I looked at including this data in the "jstopinfo" JSON that
we already have in the T packet. But there are three problems that
would make this increase the size of the T packet significantly.
First, numbers in JSON are base 10. Second, a proper JSON would
have something like "thread_pcs": { "34224331112":383772734222, ...}
for thread-id 34224331112 and pc 383772734222 - so we're including
a whole extra copy of the thread id in addition to the pc. Third,
the JSON text is hex-ascii'fied so the size of it is doubled.
In one example,
threads:585db8,585dc7,585dc8,585dc9,585dca,585dce;thread-pcs:100001400,7fff8badc6de,7fff8badcff6,7fff8badc6de,7fff8badc6de,7fff8badc6de;
The "thread-pcs" adds 86 characters - 136 characters for both
threads and thread-pcs. Doing this in JSON would look like
threads={"5791160":4294972416,"5791175":140735536809694,"5791176":140735536812022,"5791177":140735536809694,"5791178":140735536809694,"5791182":140735536809694}
or 160 characters -- or 320 characters once it is hex-asciified.
Given that it's 86 characters vrs 320, I went with the old style
approach. I've seen real world programs that have up to 60 threads
in them, so this could result in vastly larger packets if it
was all done in the JSON with hex-ascii expansion.
If we had an all-JSON T packet, where we didn't need to hex-ascii
encode anything, that would have been the better approach. But
we'd already have a list of threads in JSON at that point so
the additional text wouldn't be too bad.
I'm working on finishing the patches to lldb to use this data;
will commit those once I've had a chance to test them more. But
I wanted to commit the debugserver bits which are more
straightforward.

The standard remote debugging workflow with gdb is to start the
application on the remote host under gdbserver (e.g.: gdbserver :5039
a.out) and then connect to it with gdb.
The same workflow is supported by debugserver/lldb-gdbserver with a very
similar syntax but to access all features of lldb we need to be
connected also to an lldb-platform instance running on the target.
Before this change this had to be done manually with starting a separate
lldb-platform on the target machine and then connecting to it with lldb
before connecting to the process.
This change modifies the behavior of "platform connect" with
automatically connecting to the process instance if it was started by
the remote platform. With this command replacing gdbserver in a gdb
based worflow is usually as simple as replacing the command to execute
gdbserver with executing lldb-platform.

jGetLoadedDynamicLibrariesInfos. This packet is similar to
qXfer:libraries:read except that lldb supplies the number of solibs
that should be reported about, and the start address for the list
of them. At the initial process launch we'll read the full list
of solibs linked by the process -- at this point we could be using
qXfer:libraries:read -- but on subsequence solib-loaded notifications,
we'll be fetching a smaller number of solibs, often only one or two.
A typical Mac/iOS GUI app may have a couple hundred different
solibs loaded - doing all of the loads via memory reads takes
a couple of megabytes of traffic between lldb and debugserver.
Having debugserver summarize the load addresses of all the solibs
and sending it in JSON requires a couple of hundred kilobytes
of traffic. It's a significant performance improvement when
communicating over a slower channel.
This patch leaves all of the logic for loading the libraries
in DynamicLoaderMacOSXDYLD -- it only call over ot ProcesGDBRemote
to get the JSON result.
If the jGetLoadedDynamicLibrariesInfos packet is not implemented,
the normal technique of using memory read packets to get all of
the details from the target will be used.
<rdar://problem/21007465>
llvm-svn: 241964
For some communication channels, sending large packets can be very
slow. In those cases, it may be faster to compress the contents of
the packet on the target device and decompress it on the debug host
system. For instance, communicating with a device using something
like Bluetooth may be an environment where this tradeoff is a good one.
This patch adds a new field to the response to the "qSupported" packet
(which returns a "qXfer:features:" response) -- SupportedCompressions
and DefaultCompressionMinSize. These tell you what the remote
stub can support.
lldb, if it wants to enable compression and can handle one of those
algorithms, it can send a QEnableCompression packet specifying the
algorithm and optionally the minimum packet size to use compression
on. lldb may have better knowledge about the best tradeoff for
a given communication channel.
I added support to debugserver an lldb to use the zlib APIs
(if -DHAVE_LIBZ=1 is in CFLAGS and -lz is in LDFLAGS) and the
libcompression APIs on Mac OS X 10.11 and later
(if -DHAVE_LIBCOMPRESSION=1). libz "zlib-deflate" compression.
libcompression can support deflate, lz4, lzma, and a proprietary
lzfse algorithm. libcompression has been hand-tuned for Apple
hardware so it should be preferred if available.
debugserver currently only adds the SupportedCompressions when
it is being run on an Apple watch (TARGET_OS_WATCH). Comment
that #if out from RNBRemote.cpp if you want to enable it to
see how it works. I haven't tested this on a native system
configuration but surely it will be slower to compress & decompress
the packets in a same-system debug session.
I haven't had a chance to add support for this to
GDBRemoteCommunciationServer.cpp yet.

variable (now provided both by the normal parent LLVM CMake files and by
the LLVMConfig.cmake file used by the standalone build).
This allows LLDB to build into and install into correctly suffixed
libdirs. This is especially significant for LLDB because the python
extension building done by CMake directly uses multilib suffixes when
the host OS does, and the host OS will not always look back and forth
between them. As a consequence, before LLVM, Clang, and LLDB (and every
other subproject) had support for using LLVM_LIBDIR_SUFFIX, you couldn't
build or install LLDB on a multilib system with its python extensions
enabled. With this patch (on top of all the others I have submitted

my system with Python support enabled. I'm also able to actually run the
LLDB test suite, etc. Now, a *huge* number of the tests still fail on my
Linux system, but hey, actually running them and them testing the
debugger is a huge step forward. =D

This change brings in lldb-gdbserver (llgs) specifically for Linux x86_64.
(More architectures coming soon).
Not every debugserver option is covered yet. Currently
the lldb-gdbserver command line can start unattached,
start attached to a pid (process-name attach not supported yet),
or accept lldb attaching and launching a process or connecting
by process id.
The history of this large change can be found here:
https://github.com/tfiala/lldb/tree/dev-tfiala-native-protocol-linux-x86_64
Until mid/late April, I was not sharing the work and continued
to rebase it off of head (developed via id tfiala@google.com). I switched over to
user todd.fiala@gmail.com in the middle, and once I went to github, I did
merges rather than rebasing so I could share with others.

ArchSpec now contains an optional distribution_id, with getters and
setters. Host::GetArchitecture () sets it on non-Apple platforms using
Host::GetDistributionId (). The distribution_id is ignored during
ArchSpec comparisons.
The gdb remote qHostInfo message transmits it, if set, via the
distribution_id={id-value} key/value pair. Updated gdb remote docs to
reflect this change.
As before, GetDistributionId () returns nothing on non-Linux platforms
at this time. On Linux, it is returned only if the lsb_platform
command is installed (in /bin or /usr/bin), and only if the
distributor id key is returned by 'lsb_platform -i'. This id is
lowercased, and whitespace is replaced with underscores.

the name of the remote gdb-protocol server, and get
a version number from it. This can be useful if lldb
needs to interoperate with a gdb-protocol server with
a known issue or bug.
