Introducing a negative cache for ObjCLanguageRuntime::LookupInCompleteClassCache()
This helps speed up the (common) case of us looking for classes that are hidden deep within Cocoa internals and repeatedly failing at finding type information for them.
In order for this to work, we need to clean this cache whenever debug information is added. A new symbols loaded event is added that is triggered with add-dsym (before modules loaded would be triggered for both adding modules and adding symbols).
Interested parties can register for this event. Internally, we make sure to clean the negative cache whenever symbols are added.
Lastly, ClassDescriptor::IsTagged() has been refactored to GetTaggedPointerInfo() that also (optionally) returns info and value bits. In this way, data formatters can share tagged pointer code instead of duplicating the required arithmetic.

Making value objects properly iterable in constructs of the form
[ x for x in value_with_children ]
This would previously cause an endless loop because lacking a proper iterator object, Python will keep calling __getitem__() with increasing values of the index until it gets an IndexError
since SBValue::GetValueForExpressionPath() supports synthetic array members, no array index will ever really cause an IndexError to be raised, hence the endless iteration
class value_iter is an implementation of __iter__() that provides a terminating iterator over a value

- Providing file-like behavior for SBStream with appropriate extension write() and flush() calls, plus documenting that these are only meant and only exist for Python
Documenting the file-like behavior on our website
llvm-svn: 177877
Exports write() and flush() from SBCommandReturnObject to enable file-like output from Python commands.
e.g.:
def ls(debugger, command, result, internal_dict):
print >>result,”just “some output”

(lldb) ls
just “some output
(lldb)

"compile_units" returns an array of all compile units in a module as a list() of lldb.SBCompileUnit objects.
"compile_unit" returns a compile unit accessor object that allows indexed access, search by full or partial path, or by regex:
(lldb) script
comp_unit = lldb.target.module['TextEdit'].compile_unit['Document.m']
comp_unit = lldb.target.module['TextEdit'].compile_unit['/path/to/Document.m']
comp_unit = lldb.target.module['TextEdit'].compile_unit[0]
comp_unit = lldb.target.module['TextEdit'].compile_unit[1]
for comp_unit in lldb.target.module['TextEdit'].compile_unit[re.compile("\.m$")]
print comp_unit
This helps do quick searches and scripting while debugging.

Major fixed to allow reading files that are over 4GB. The main problems were that the DataExtractor was using 32 bit offsets as a data cursor, and since we mmap all of our object files we could run into cases where if we had a very large core file that was over 4GB, we were running into the 4GB boundary.
So I defined a new "lldb::offset_t" which should be used for all file offsets.
After making this change, I enabled warnings for data loss and for enexpected implicit conversions temporarily and found a ton of things that I fixed.
Any functions that take an index internally, should use "size_t" for any indexes and also should return "size_t" for any sizes of collections.

Added the ability for OS plug-ins to lazily populate the thread this. The python OS plug-in classes can now implement the following method:
class OperatingSystemPlugin:
def create_thread(self, tid, context):
# Return a dictionary for a new thread to create it on demand
This will add a new thread to the thread list if it doesn't already exist. The example code in lldb/examples/python/operating_system.py has been updated to show how this call us used.
Cleaned up the code in PythonDataObjects.cpp/h:
- renamed all classes that started with PythonData* to be Python*.
- renamed PythonArray to PythonList. Cleaned up the code to use inheritance where
- Centralized the code that does ref counting in the PythonObject class to a single function.
- Made the "bool PythonObject::Reset(PyObject *)" function be virtual so each subclass can correctly check to ensure a PyObject is of the right type before adopting the object.
- Cleaned up all APIs and added new constructors for the Python* classes to they can all construct form:
- PyObject *
- const PythonObject &
- const lldb::ScriptInterpreterObjectSP &
Cleaned up code in ScriptInterpreterPython:
- Made calling python functions safer by templatizing the production of value formats. Python specifies the value formats based on built in C types (long, long long, etc), and code often uses typedefs for uint32_t, uint64_t, etc when passing arguments down to python. We will now always produce correct value formats as the templatized code will "do the right thing" all the time.
- Fixed issues with the ScriptInterpreterPython::Locker where entering the session and leaving the session had a bunch of issues that could cause the "lldb" module globals lldb.debugger, lldb.target, lldb.process, lldb.thread, and lldb.frame to not be initialized.

Adding FindFirstGlobalVariable to SBModule and SBTarget
These calls work like FindGlobalVariables but they only return the first match found and so they can return an SBValue instead of an SBValueList for added convenience of use
llvm-svn: 172636
Added a unique integer identifier to processes. Some systems, like JTAG or other simulators, might always assign the same process ID (pid) to the processes that are being debugged. In order for scripts and the APIs to uniquely identify the processes, there needs to be another ID. Now the SBProcess class has:
uint32_t SBProcess::GetUniqueID();
This integer ID will help to truly uniquely identify a process and help with appropriate caching that can be associated with a SBProcess object.
llvm-svn: 172628
controlled by the --unwind-on-error flag, and --ignore-breakpoint which separately controls behavior when a called
function hits a breakpoint. For breakpoints, we don't unwind, we either stop, or ignore the breakpoint, which makes
more sense.
Also make both these behaviors globally settable through "settings set".
Also handle the case where a breakpoint command calls code that ends up re-hitting the breakpoint. We were recursing
and crashing. Now we just stop without calling the second command.

As with llvm svn r172138, this patch is basically copying some changes that
we've been using for building clang at Apple. Besides cleaning it up to use
xcrun to locate the proper versions of tools, especially for cross compiling,
it fixes the build to work with newer versions of clang that honor SDKROOT
settings in the environment.

This script used an inconsistent mix of spaces and tabs, and even
ignoring that, it still had inconsistent indentation, which is
pretty scary for a Python script. I also removed trailing whitespace
from some lines.
llvm-svn: 172237
Added SBTarget::EvaluateExpression() so expressions can be evaluated without needing a process.
Also fixed many functions that deal with clang AST types to be able to properly handle the clang::Type::Elaborated types ("struct foo", "class bar").
llvm-svn: 171476
Added a "step-in-target" flag to "thread step-in" so if you have something like:
Process 28464 stopped
* thread #1: tid = 0x1c03, function: main , stop reason = breakpoint 1.1
frame #0: 0x0000000100000e08 a.out`main at main.c:62
61
-> 62 int A6 = complex (a(4), b(5), c(6)); // Stop here to step targetting b and hitting breakpoint.
63
and you want to get into "complex" skipping a, b and c, you can do:
(lldb) step -t complex
Process 28464 stopped
* thread #1: tid = 0x1c03, function: complex , stop reason = step in
frame #0: 0x0000000100000d0d a.out`complex at main.c:44
41
42 int complex (int first, int second, int third)
43 {

This commit enables the new HasChildren() feature for synthetic children providers
Namely, it hooks up the required bits and pieces so that individual synthetic children providers can implement a new (optional) has_children call
Default implementations have been provided where necessary so that any existing providers continue to work and behave correctly
Next steps are:
2) writing smart implementations of has_children for our providers whenever possible
3) make a test case
llvm-svn: 166495
Added a new API call to help efficiently determine if a SBValue could have children:
bool
SBValue::MightHaveChildren ();
This is inteneded to be used bui GUI programs that need to show if a SBValue needs a disclosure triangle when displaying a hierarchical type in a tree view without having to complete the type (by calling SBValue::GetNumChildren()) as completing the type is expensive.
llvm-svn: 166460
Given our implementation of ValueObjects we could have a scenario where a ValueObject has a dynamic type of Foo* at one point, and then its dynamic type changes to Bar*
If Bar* has synthetic children enabled, by the time we figure that out, our public API is already vending SBValues wrapping a DynamicVO, instead of a SyntheticVO and there was
no trivial way for us to change the SP inside an SBValue on the fly
This checkin reimplements SBValue in terms of a wrapper, ValueImpl, that allows this substitutions on-the-fly by overriding GetSP() to do The Right Thing (TM)
As an additional bonus, GetNonSyntheticValue() now works, and we can get rid of the ForceDisableSyntheticChildren idiom in ScriptInterpreterPython
Lastly, this checkin makes sure the synthetic VOs get the correct m_value and m_data from their parents (prevented summaries from working in some cases)
llvm-svn: 166426
Then make the Thread a Broadcaster, and get it to broadcast when the selected frame is changed (but only from the Command Line) and when Thread::ReturnFromFrame
changes the stack.
Made the Driver use this notification to print the new thread status rather than doing it in the command.
Fixed a few places where people were setting their broadcaster class by hand rather than using the static broadcaster class call.

This checkin adds the capability for LLDB to load plugins from external dylibs that can provide new commands
It exports an SBCommand class from the public API layer, and a new SBCommandPluginInterface
There is a minimal load-only plugin manager built into the debugger, which can be accessed via Debugger::LoadPlugin.
Plugins are loaded from two locations at debugger startup (LLDB.framework/Resources/PlugIns and ~/Library/Application Support/LLDB/PlugIns) and more can be (re)loaded via the "plugin load" command
For an example of how to make a plugin, refer to the fooplugin.cpp file in examples/plugins/commands
Caveats:
Currently, the new API objects and features are not exposed via Python.
The new commands can only be "parsed" (i.e. not raw) and get their command line via a char** parameter (we do not expose our internal Args object)
There is no unloading feature, which can potentially lead to leaks if you overwrite the commands by reloading the same or different plugins
There is no API exposed for option parsing, which means you may need to use getopt or roll-your-own

top-of-tree. Removed all local patches and llvm.zip.
The intent is that fron now on top-of-tree will

that problems building will be resolved as they

constructed as needed and linked to specific release
branches of LLVM/Clang.

This may (but shouldn't) break Linux (but I tested and it still worked on FreeBSD).

./verify_api.py --library ./LLDB.framework/LLDB --api-regex lldb --arch x86_64 /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/PlugIns/DebuggerLLDB.ideplugin/Contents/MacOS/DebuggerLLDB
So you specify a library with the "--library" option, then you specify an API regular expression that you want to match the executables against with "--api-regex <regex>", here we specify "lldb" to catch all undefined external API functions from the binary we want to test, then we specify the architectures to check with "--arch <arch>" (this can be specified more than once), and you give one or more executables.

- Tweaked a parameter name in SBDebugger.h so my typemap will catch it;
- Added a SBDebugger.Create(bool, callback, baton) to the swig interface;
- Added SBDebugger.SetLoggingCallback to the swig interface;
- Added a callback utility function for log callbacks;
- Guard against Py_None on both callback utility functions;
- Added a FIXME to the SBDebugger API test;
- Added a __del__() stub for SBDebugger.
We need to be able to get both the log callback and baton from an
SBDebugger if we want to protect against memory leaks (or make the user
responsible for holding another reference to the callback).
Additionally, it's impossible to revert from a callback-backed log
mechanism to a file-backed log mechanism.
llvm-svn: 162633
Now it's possible to use SBInputReader callbacks in Python.
We leak the callback object, unfortunately. A __del__ method can be added
to SBInputReader, but we have no way to check the callback function that
is on the reader. So we can't call Py_DECREF on it when we have our
PythonCallback function. One way to do it is to assume that reified
SBInputReaders always have a Python callback (and always call Py_DECREF).
Another one is to add methods or properties to SBInputReader (or make the
m_callback_function property public).
llvm-svn: 162356
libc++. We also no longer use the GNU extensions
to C++ and C (we didn't use them anyway).

Added new API to lldb::SBTypeMember for bitfields:
bool SBTypeMember::IsBitfield();
uint32_t SBTypeMember::GetBitfieldSizeInBits();
Also added new properties for easy access. Now SBTypeMember objects in python have a "fields" property for all type fields, "bases" for all direct bases, "vbases" for all virtual base classes and "members" for a combo of all three organized by bit offset. They all return a python list() of SBTypeMember objects. Usage:
(lldb) script
>>> t = lldb.target.FindFirstType("my_type")
>>> for field in t.fields:
... print field
>>> for vbase in t.vbases:
... print vbase
>>> for base in t.bases:
... print base
>>> for member in t.members:
... print member
Also added new "is_bitfield" property to the SBTypeMember objects that will return the result of SBTypeMember::IsBitfield(), and "bitfield_bit_size" which will return the result of SBTypeMember::GetBitfieldSizeInBits();
I also fixed "SBTypeMember::GetOffsetInBytes()" to return the correct byte offset.

Convert from calling Halt in the lldb Driver.cpp's input reader's sigint handler to sending this AsyncInterrupt so it can be handled in the
event loop.
If you are attaching and get an async interrupt, abort the attach attempt.
Also remember to destroy the process if get interrupted while attaching.
Getting this to work also required handing the eBroadcastBitInterrupt in a few more places in Process WaitForEvent & friends.

Execute which was never going to get run and another ExecuteRawCommandString. Took the knowledge of how
to prepare raw & parsed commands out of CommandInterpreter and put it in CommandObject where it belongs.
Also took all the cases where there were the subcommands of Multiword commands declared in the .h file for
the overall command and moved them into the .cpp file.
Made the CommandObject flags work for raw as well as parsed commands.
Made "expr" use the flags so that it requires you to be paused to run "expr".

Refactorings of watchpoint creation APIs so that SBTarget::WatchAddress(), SBValue::Watch(), and SBValue::WatchPointee()
now take an additional 'SBError &error' parameter (at the end) to contain the reason if there is some failure in the
operation. Update 'watchpoint set variable/expression' commands to take advantage of that.
Update existing test cases to reflect the API change and add test cases to verify that the SBError mechanism works for
SBTarget::WatchAddress() by passing an invalid watch_size.

We are introducing a new Logger class on the Python side. This has the same purpose, but is unrelated, to the C++ logging facility
The Pythonic logging can be enabled by using the following scripting commands:
(lldb) script Logger._lldb_formatters_debug_level = {0,1,2,...}
0 = no logging
1 = do log
2 = flush after logging each line - slower but safer
3 or more = each time a Logger is constructed, log the function that has created it
more log levels may be added, each one being more log-active than the previous
by default, the log output will come out on your screen, to direct it to a file:
(lldb) script Logger._lldb_formatters_debug_filename = 'filename'
that will make the output go to the file - set to None to disable the file output and get screen logging back
Logging has been enabled for the C++ STL formatters and for Cocoa class NSData - more logging will follow
synthetic children providers for classes list and map (both libstdcpp and libcxx) now have internal capping for safety reasons
this will fix crashers where a malformed list or map would not ever meet our termination conditions
to set the cap to a different value:
(lldb) script {gnu_libstdcpp|libcxx}.{map|list}_capping_size = new_cap (by default, it is 255)
you can optionally disable the loop detection algorithm for lists
(lldb) script {gnu_libstdcpp|libcxx}.list_uses_loop_detector = False

A new setting enable-synthetic-value is provided on the target to disable this behavior.
There also is a new GetNonSyntheticValue() API call on SBValue to go back from synthetic to non-synthetic. There is no call to go from non-synthetic to synthetic.
The test suite has been changed accordingly.
Fallout from changes to type searching: an hack has to be played to make it possible to use maps that contain std::string due to the special name replacement operated by clang
Fixing a test case that was using libstdcpp instead of libc++ - caught as a consequence of said changes to type searching
