Also changed the defaults for SBThread::Step* to not delete extant plans.
Also added some test cases to test more complex stepping scenarios.
llvm-svn: 156667
Also test for the process to be stopped when many SBValue API calls are made to make sure it is safe to evaluate values, children of values and much more.
llvm-svn: 154160
This abstracts read/write locks on the current host system. It is currently backed by pthread_rwlock_t objects so it should work on all unix systems.
We also need a way to control multi-threaded access to the process through the public API when it is running. For example it isn't a good idea to try and get stack frames while the process is running. To implement this, the lldb_private::Process class now contains a ReadWriteLock member variable named m_run_lock which is used to control the public process state. The public process state represents the state of the process as the client knows it. The private is used to control the actual current process state. So the public state of the process can be stopped, yet the private state can be running when evaluating an expression for example.
Adding the read/write lock where readers are clients that want the process to stay stopped, and writers are clients that run the process, allows us to accurately control multi-threaded access to the process.
Switched the SBThread and SBFrame over to us shared pointers to the ExecutionContextRef class instead of making their own class to track this. This fixed an issue with assigning on SBFrame to another and will also centralize the code that tracks weak references to execution context objects into one location.
llvm-svn: 154099
Add SBFrame::IsEqual(const SBFrame &that) method and export it to the Python binding.
Alos add a test case test_frame_api_IsEqual() to TestFrames.py file.

Change build-swig-Python.sh to emit an empty LLDBPythonWrap.cpp file if
this build is LLDB_DISABLE_PYTHON.
Change the "Copy to Xcode.app" shell script phase in the lldb.xcodeproj
to only do this copying for Mac native builds.
llvm-svn: 151035
the lldb_private::StackFrame objects hold onto a weak pointer to the thread
object. The lldb_private::StackFrame objects the the most volatile objects
we have as when we are doing single stepping, frames can often get lost or
thrown away, only to be re-created as another object that still refers to the
same frame. We have another bug tracking that. But we need to be able to
have frames no longer be able to get the thread when they are not part of
a thread anymore, and this is the first step (this fix makes that possible
but doesn't implement it yet).
Also changed lldb_private::ExecutionContextScope to return shared pointers to
all objects in the execution context to further thread harden the internals.
llvm-svn: 150871
interface (.i) files for each class.
Changed the FindFunction class from:
uint32_t
SBTarget::FindFunctions (const char *name,
uint32_t name_type_mask,
bool append,
lldb::SBSymbolContextList& sc_list)
uint32_t
SBModule::FindFunctions (const char *name,
uint32_t name_type_mask,
bool append,
lldb::SBSymbolContextList& sc_list)
To:
lldb::SBSymbolContextList
SBTarget::FindFunctions (const char *name,
uint32_t name_type_mask = lldb::eFunctionNameTypeAny);
lldb::SBSymbolContextList
SBModule::FindFunctions (const char *name,
uint32_t name_type_mask = lldb::eFunctionNameTypeAny);
This makes the API easier to use from python. Also added the ability to
append a SBSymbolContext or a SBSymbolContextList to a SBSymbolContextList.
Exposed properties for lldb.SBSymbolContextList in python:
lldb.SBSymbolContextList.modules => list() or all lldb.SBModule objects in the list
lldb.SBSymbolContextList.compile_units => list() or all lldb.SBCompileUnits objects in the list
lldb.SBSymbolContextList.functions => list() or all lldb.SBFunction objects in the list
lldb.SBSymbolContextList.blocks => list() or all lldb.SBBlock objects in the list
lldb.SBSymbolContextList.line_entries => list() or all lldb.SBLineEntry objects in the list
lldb.SBSymbolContextList.symbols => list() or all lldb.SBSymbol objects in the list
This allows a call to the SBTarget::FindFunctions(...) and SBModule::FindFunctions(...)
and then the result can be used to extract the desired information:
sc_list = lldb.target.FindFunctions("erase")
for function in sc_list.functions:
print function
for symbol in sc_list.symbols:
print symbol
Exposed properties for the lldb.SBSymbolContext objects in python:
lldb.SBSymbolContext.module => lldb.SBModule
lldb.SBSymbolContext.compile_unit => lldb.SBCompileUnit
lldb.SBSymbolContext.function => lldb.SBFunction
lldb.SBSymbolContext.block => lldb.SBBlock
lldb.SBSymbolContext.line_entry => lldb.SBLineEntry
lldb.SBSymbolContext.symbol => lldb.SBSymbol
Exposed properties for the lldb.SBBlock objects in python:
lldb.SBBlock.parent => lldb.SBBlock for the parent block that contains
lldb.SBBlock.sibling => lldb.SBBlock for the sibling block to the current block
lldb.SBBlock.first_child => lldb.SBBlock for the first child block to the current block
lldb.SBBlock.call_site => for inline functions, return a lldb.declaration object that gives the call site file, line and column
lldb.SBBlock.name => for inline functions this is the name of the inline function that this block represents
lldb.SBBlock.inlined_block => returns the inlined function block that contains this block (might return itself if the current block is an inlined block)
lldb.SBBlock.range[int] => access the address ranges for a block by index, a list() with start and end address is returned
lldb.SBBlock.ranges => an array or all address ranges for this block
lldb.SBBlock.num_ranges => the number of address ranges for this blcok
SBFunction objects can now get the SBType and the SBBlock that represents the
top scope of the function.
SBBlock objects can now get the variable list from the current block. The value
list returned allows varaibles to be viewed prior with no process if code
wants to check the variables in a function. There are two ways to get a variable
list from a SBBlock:
lldb::SBValueList
SBBlock::GetVariables (lldb::SBFrame& frame,
bool arguments,
bool locals,
bool statics,
lldb::DynamicValueType use_dynamic);
lldb::SBValueList
SBBlock::GetVariables (lldb::SBTarget& target,
bool arguments,
bool locals,
bool statics);
When a SBFrame is used, the values returned will be locked down to the frame
and the values will be evaluated in the context of that frame.
When a SBTarget is used, global an static variables can be viewed without a
running process.
llvm-svn: 149853
instead of the __repr__. __repr__ is a function that should return an
expression that can be used to recreate an python object and we were using
it to just return a human readable string.
Fixed a crasher when using the new implementation of SBValue::Cast(SBType).
Thread hardened lldb::SBValue and lldb::SBWatchpoint and did other general
improvements to the API.
Fixed a crasher in lldb::SBValue::GetChildMemberWithName() where we didn't
correctly handle not having a target.
llvm-svn: 149743
lldb.SBValueList now exposes the len() method and also allows item access:
lldb.SBValueList[<int>] - where <int> is an integer index into the list, returns a single lldb.SBValue which might be empty if the index is out of range
lldb.SBValueList[<str>] - where <str> is the name to look for, returns a list() of lldb.SBValue objects with any matching values (the list might be empty if nothing matches)
lldb.SBValueList[<re>] - where <re> is a compiles regular expression, returns a list of lldb.SBValue objects for containing any matches or a empty list if nothing matches
lldb.SBFrame now exposes:
lldb.SBFrame.variables => SBValueList of all variables that are in scope
lldb.SBFrame.vars => see lldb.SBFrame.variables
lldb.SBFrame.locals => SBValueList of all variables that are locals in the current frame
lldb.SBFrame.arguments => SBValueList of all variables that are arguments in the current frame
lldb.SBFrame.args => see lldb.SBFrame.arguments
lldb.SBFrame.statics => SBValueList of all static variables
lldb.SBFrame.registers => SBValueList of all registers for the current frame
lldb.SBFrame.regs => see lldb.SBFrame.registers
Combine any of the above properties with the new lldb.SBValueList functionality
and now you can do:
y = lldb.frame.vars['rect.origin.y']
or
vars = lldb.frame.vars
for i in range len(vars):
print vars[i]
Also expose "lldb.SBFrame.var(<str>)" where <str> can be en expression path
for any variable or child within the variable. This makes it easier to get a
value from the current frame like "rect.origin.y". The resulting value is also
not a constant result as expressions will return, but a live value that will
continue to track the current value for the variable expression path.
lldb.SBValue now exposes:
lldb.SBValue.unsigned => unsigned integer for the value
lldb.SBValue.signed => a signed integer for the value
llvm-svn: 149684
contain shared pointers to the lldb_private::Target and lldb_private::Process
objects respectively as we won't want the target or process just going away.
Also cleaned up the lldb::SBModule to remove dangerous pointer accessors.
For any code the public API files, we should always be grabbing shared
pointers to any objects for the current class, and any other classes prior
to running code with them.
llvm-svn: 149238
frames might go away (the object itself, not the actual logical frame) when
we are single stepping due to the way we currently sometimes end up flushing
frames when stepping in/out/over. They later will come back to life
represented by another object yet they have the same StackID. Now when you get
a lldb::SBFrame object, it will track the frame it is initialized with until
the thread goes away or the StackID no longer exists in the stack for the
thread it was created on. It uses a weak_ptr to both the frame and thread and
also stores the StackID. These three items allow us to determine when the
stack frame object has gone away (the weak_ptr will be NULL) and allows us to
find the correct frame again. In our test suite we had such cases where we
were just getting lucky when something like this happened:
1 - stop at breakpoint
2 - get first frame in thread where we stopped
3 - run an expression that causes the program to JIT and run code
4 - run more expressions on the frame from step 2 which was very very luckily
still around inside a shared pointer, yet, not part of the current
thread (a new stack frame object had appeared with the same stack ID and
depth).
We now avoid all such issues and properly keep up to date, or we start
returning errors when the frame doesn't exist and always responds with
invalid answers.
Also fixed the UserSettingsController (not going to rewrite this just yet)
so that it doesn't crash on shutdown. Using weak_ptr's came in real handy to
track when the master controller has already gone away and this allowed me to
pull out the previous NotifyOwnerIsShuttingDown() patch as it is no longer
needed.
llvm-svn: 149231
all RTTI types, and since we don't use RTTI anymore since clang and llvm don't
we don't really need this header file. All shared pointer definitions have
been moved into "lldb-forward.h".
Defined std::tr1::weak_ptr definitions for all of the types that inherit from
enable_shared_from_this() in "lldb-forward.h" in preparation for thread
hardening our public API.
The first in the thread hardening check-ins. First we start with SBThread.
We have issues in our lldb::SB API right now where if you have one object
that is being used by two threads we have a race condition. Consider the
following code:
1 int
2 SBThread::SomeFunction()
3 {
4 int result = -1;
5 if (m_opaque_sp)
6 {
7 result = m_opaque_sp->DoSomething();
8 }
9 return result;
10 }
And now this happens:
Thread 1 enters any SBThread function and checks its m_opaque_sp and is about
to execute the code on line 7 but hasn't yet
Thread 2 gets to run and class sb_thread.Clear() which calls m_opaque_sp.clear()
and clears the contents of the shared pointer member
Thread 1 now crashes when it resumes.
The solution is to use std::tr1::weak_ptr. Now the SBThread class contains a
lldb::ThreadWP (weak pointer to our lldb_private::Thread class) and this
function would look like:
1 int
2 SBThread::SomeFunction()
3 {
4 int result = -1;
5 ThreadSP thread_sp(m_opaque_wp.lock());
6 if (thread_sp)
7 {
8 result = m_opaque_sp->DoSomething();
9 }
10 return result;
11 }
Now we have a solid thread safe API where we get a local copy of our thread
shared pointer from our weak_ptr and then we are guaranteed it can't go away
during our function.
So lldb::SBThread has been thread hardened, more checkins to follow shortly.
llvm-svn: 149218
due to RTTI worries since llvm and clang don't use RTTI, but I was able to
switch back with no issues as far as I can tell. Once the RTTI issue wasn't
an issue, we were looking for a way to properly track weak pointers to objects
to solve some of the threading issues we have been running into which naturally
led us back to std::tr1::weak_ptr. We also wanted the ability to make a shared
pointer from just a pointer, which is also easily solved using the
std::tr1::enable_shared_from_this class.
The main reason for this move back is so we can start properly having weak
references to objects. Currently a lldb_private::Thread class has a refrence
to its parent lldb_private::Process. This doesn't work well when we now hand
out a SBThread object that contains a shared pointer to a lldb_private::Thread
as this SBThread can be held onto by external clients and if they end up
using one of these objects we can easily crash.
So the next task is to start adopting std::tr1::weak_ptr where ever it makes
sense which we can do with lldb_private::Debugger, lldb_private::Target,
lldb_private::Process, lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::StackFrame, and
many more objects now that they are no longer using intrusive ref counted
pointer objects (you can't do std::tr1::weak_ptr functionality with intrusive
pointers).
llvm-svn: 149207
parser has hitherto been an implementation waiting
for a use. I have now tied the '-o' option for
the expression command -- which indicates that the
result is an Objective-C object and needs to be
printed -- to the ExpressionParser, which
communicates the desired type to Clang.
Now, if the result of an expression is determined
by an Objective-C method call for which there is
no type information, that result is implicitly
cast to id if and only if the -o option is passed
to the expression command. (Otherwise if there
is no explicit cast Clang will issue an error.
This behavior is identical to what happened before
r146756.)
Also added a testcase for -o enabled and disabled.
llvm-svn: 147099
Fixed an issues with the SBType and SBTypeMember classes:
- Fixed SBType to be able to dump itself from python
- Fixed SBType::GetNumberOfFields() to return the correct value for objective C interfaces
- Fixed SBTypeMember to be able to dump itself from python
- Fixed the SBTypeMember ability to get a field offset in bytes (the value
being returned was wrong)
- Added the SBTypeMember ability to get a field offset in bits
Cleaned up a lot of the Stream usage in the SB API files.
llvm-svn: 144493
string to avoid possible later crashes.
Modified the locations that do set the crash description to NULL out the
string when they are done doing their tasks.
llvm-svn: 144297
a watchpoint for either the variable encapsulated by SBValue (Watch) or the pointee
encapsulated by SBValue (WatchPointee).
Removed SBFrame::WatchValue() and SBFrame::WatchLocation() API as a result of that.
Modified the watchpoint related test suite to reflect the change.
Plus replacing WatchpointLocation with Watchpoint throughout the code base.
There are still cleanups to be dome. This patch passes the whole test suite.
Check it in so that we aggressively catch regressions.
llvm-svn: 141925
set a watchpoint Pythonically. If the find-and-watch-a-variable operation
fails, an invalid SBValue is returned, instead.
Example Python usage:
value = frame0.WatchValue('global',
lldb.eValueTypeVariableGlobal,
lldb.LLDB_WATCH_TYPE_READ|lldb.LLDB_WATCH_TYPE_WRITE)
Add TestSetWatchpoint.py to exercise this API.
We have 400 test cases now.
llvm-svn: 140436
to execute expressions even in the absence of a process.
This allows expressions to run in situations where the
target cannot run -- e.g., to perform calculations based
on type information, or to inspect a binary's static
data.
This modification touches the following files:
lldb-private-enumerations.h
Introduce a new enum specifying the policy for
processing an expression. Some expressions should
always be JITted, for example if they are functions
that will be used over and over again. Some
expressions should always be interpreted, for
example if the target is unsafe to run. For most,
it is acceptable to JIT them, but interpretation
is preferable when possible.
Target.[h,cpp]
Have EvaluateExpression now accept the new enum.
ClangExpressionDeclMap.[cpp,h]
Add support for the IR interpreter and also make
the ClangExpressionDeclMap more robust in the
absence of a process.
ClangFunction.[cpp,h]
Add support for the new enum.
IRInterpreter.[cpp,h]
New implementation.
ClangUserExpression.[cpp,h]
Add support for the new enum, and for running
expressions in the absence of a process.
ClangExpression.h
Remove references to the old DWARF-based method
of evaluating expressions, because it has been
superseded for now.
ClangUtilityFunction.[cpp,h]
Add support for the new enum.
ClangExpressionParser.[cpp,h]
Add support for the new enum, remove references
to DWARF, and add support for checking whether
the expression could be evaluated statically.
IRForTarget.[h,cpp]
Add support for the new enum, and add utility
functions to support the interpreter.
IRToDWARF.cpp
Removed
CommandObjectExpression.cpp
Remove references to the obsolete -i option.
Process.cpp
Modify calls to ClangUserExpression::Evaluate
to pass the correct enum (for dlopen/dlclose)
SBValue.cpp
Add support for the new enum.
SBFrame.cpp
Add support for he new enum.
BreakpointOptions.cpp
Add support for the new enum.
llvm-svn: 139772
Fixed up many API calls to not be "const" as const doesn't mean anything to
most of our lldb::SB objects since they contain a shared pointer, auto_ptr, or
pointer to the types which circumvent the constness anyway.
llvm-svn: 139428
the SBType implementation classes.
Fixed LLDB core and the test suite to not use deprecated SBValue APIs.
Added a few new APIs to SBValue:
int64_t
SBValue::GetValueAsSigned(int64_t fail_value=0);
uint64_t
SBValue::GetValueAsUnsigned(uint64_t fail_value=0)
llvm-svn: 136829
instructions if they are conditional. Also fixed issues where the PC wasn't
getting bit zero stripped for ARM targets when a stack frame was thumb. We
now properly call through the GetOpcodeLoadAddress() functions to make sure
the addresses are properly stripped for any targets that may decorate up
their addresses.
We now don't pass the SIGSTOP signals along. We can revisit this soon, but
currently this was interfering with debugging some older ARM targets that
don't have vCont support in the GDB server.
llvm-svn: 134461
const char *
SBFrame::GetFunctionName();
bool
SBFrame::IsInlined();
The first one will return the correct name for a frame. The name of a frame is:
- the name of the inlined function (if there is one)
- the name of the concrete function (if there is one)
- the name of the symbol (if there is one)
- NULL
We also can now easily check if a frame is an inline function or not.
llvm-svn: 133357
pointer to a ValueObject or any of its dependent ValueObjects, and the whole cluster will
stay around as long as that shared pointer stays around.
llvm-svn: 130035
expressions that are simple enough to get passed to the "frame var" underpinnings. The parser code will
have to be changed to also query for the dynamic types & offsets as it is looking up variables.
The behavior of "frame var" is controlled in two ways. You can pass "-d {true/false} to the frame var
command to get the dynamic or static value of the variables you are printing.
There's also a general setting:
target.prefer-dynamic-value (boolean) = 'true'
which is consulted if you call "frame var" without supplying a value for the -d option.
llvm-svn: 129623
select frame #3, you can then do a step out and be able to go directly to the
frame above frame #3!
Added StepOverUntil and StepOutOfFrame to the SBThread API to allow more powerful
stepping.
llvm-svn: 123970
by LLDB. Instead of being materialized into the input structure
passed to the expression, variables are left in place and pointers
to them are materialzied into the structure. Variables not resident
in memory (notably, registers) get temporary memory regions allocated
for them.
Persistent variables are the most complex part of this, because they
are made in various ways and there are different expectations about
their lifetime. Persistent variables now have flags indicating their
status and what the expectations for longevity are. They can be
marked as residing in target memory permanently -- this is the
default for result variables from expressions entered on the command
line and for explicitly declared persistent variables (but more on
that below). Other result variables have their memory freed.
Some major improvements resulting from this include being able to
properly take the address of variables, better and cleaner support
for functions that return references, and cleaner C++ support in
general. One problem that remains is the problem of explicitly
declared persistent variables; I have not yet implemented the code
that makes references to them into indirect references, so currently
materialization and dematerialization of these variables is broken.
llvm-svn: 123371
an issue with the way the UnwindLLDB was handing out RegisterContexts: it
was making shared pointers to register contexts and then handing out just
the pointers (which would get put into shared pointers in the thread and
stack frame classes) and cause double free issues. MallocScribble helped to
find these issues after I did some other cleanup. To help avoid any
RegisterContext issue in the future, all code that deals with them now
returns shared pointers to the register contexts so we don't end up with
multiple deletions. Also now that the RegisterContext class doesn't require
a stack frame, we patched a memory leak where a StackFrame object was being
created and leaked.
Made the RegisterContext class not have a pointer to a StackFrame object as
one register context class can be used for N inlined stack frames so there is
not a 1 - 1 mapping. Updates the ExecutionContextScope part of the
RegisterContext class to never return a stack frame to indicate this when it
is asked to recreate the execution context. Now register contexts point to the
concrete frame using a concrete frame index. Concrete frames are all of the
frames that are actually formed on the stack of a thread. These concrete frames
can be turned into one or more user visible frames due to inlining. Each
inlined stack frame has the exact same register context (shared via shared
pointers) as any parent inlined stack frames all the way up to the concrete
frame itself.
So now the stack frames and the register contexts should behave much better.
llvm-svn: 122976
SBValue SBFrame::LookupVar(const char *name);
To
SBValue SBFrame::FindVariable (const char *name);
Changed:
SBValue LookupVarInScope (const char *name, const char *scope);
to
SBValue FindValue (const char *name, ValueType value_type);
The latter makes it possible to not only find variables (params, locals, globals, and statics), but we can also now get register sets, registers and persistent variables using the frame as the context.
llvm-svn: 121777
values or persistent expression variables. Now if an expression consists of
a value that is a child of a variable, or of a persistent variable only, we
will create a value object for it and make a ValueObjectConstResult from it to
freeze the value (for program variables only, not persistent variables) and
avoid running JITed code. For everything else we still parse up and JIT code
and run it in the inferior.
There was also a lot of clean up in the expression code. I made the
ClangExpressionVariables be stored in collections of shared pointers instead
of in collections of objects. This will help stop a lot of copy constructors on
these large objects and also cleans up the code considerably. The persistent
clang expression variables were moved over to the Target to ensure they persist
across process executions.
Added the ability for lldb_private::Target objects to evaluate expressions.
We want to evaluate expressions at the target level in case we aren't running
yet, or we have just completed running. We still want to be able to access the
persistent expression variables between runs, and also evaluate constant
expressions.
Added extra logging to the dynamic loader plug-in for MacOSX. ModuleList objects
can now dump their contents with the UUID, arch and full paths being logged with
appropriate prefix values.
Thread hardened the Communication class a bit by making the connection auto_ptr
member into a shared pointer member and then making a local copy of the shared
pointer in each method that uses it to make sure another thread can't nuke the
connection object while it is being used by another thread.
Added a new file to the lldb/test/load_unload test that causes the test a.out file
to link to the libd.dylib file all the time. This will allow us to test using
the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable after moving libd.dylib somewhere else.
llvm-svn: 121745
Added a ThreadPlanCallUserExpression that differs from ThreadPlanCallFunction in that it holds onto a shared pointer to its ClangUserExpression so that can't go away before the thread plan is done using it.
Fixed the stop message when you hit a breakpoint while running a user expression so it is more obvious what has happened.
llvm-svn: 120386
don't crash if we disable logging when some code already has a copy of the
logger. Prior to this fix, logs were handed out as pointers and if they were
held onto while a log got disabled, then it could cause a crash. Now all logs
are handed out as shared pointers so this problem shouldn't happen anymore.
We are also using our new shared pointers that put the shared pointer count
and the object into the same allocation for a tad better performance.
