Fixed the DisassemblerLLVMC disassembler to parse more efficiently instead of parsing opcodes over and over. The InstructionLLVMC class now only reads the opcode in the InstructionLLVMC::Decode function. This can be done very efficiently for ARM and architectures that have fixed opcode sizes. For x64 it still calls the disassembler to get the byte size.
Moved the lldb_private::Instruction::Dump(...) function up into the lldb_private::Instruction class and it now uses the function that gets the mnemonic, operandes and comments so that all disassembly is using the same code.
Added StreamString::FillLastLineToColumn() to allow filling a line up to a column with a character (which is used by the lldb_private::Instruction::Dump(...) function).
Modified the Opcode::GetData() fucntion to "do the right thing" for thumb instructions.

No one was using it and Locker(pthread_mutex_t *) immediately asserts for
pthread_mutex_t's that don't come from a Mutex anyway. Rather than try to make
that work, we should maintain the Mutex abstraction and not pass around the
platform implementation...
Make Mutex::Locker::Lock take a Mutex & or a Mutex *, and remove the constructor
taking a pthread_mutex_t *. You no longer need to call Mutex::GetMutex to pass
your mutex to a Locker (you can't in fact, since I made it private.)
llvm-svn: 156221
Cleaned up the Mutex::Locker and the ReadWriteLock classes a bit.
Also cleaned up the GDBRemoteCommunication class to not have so many packet functions. Used the "NoLock" versions of send/receive packet functions when possible for a bit of performance.

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.

symbolication. Also improved the SBInstruction API to allow
access to the instruction opcode name, mnemonics, comment and
instruction data.
Added the ability to edit SBLineEntry objects (change the file,
line and column), and also allow SBSymbolContext objects to be
modified (set module, comp unit, function, block, line entry
or symbol).
The SymbolContext and SBSymbolContext can now generate inlined
call stack infomration for symbolication much easier using the
SymbolContext::GetParentInlinedFrameInfo(...) and
SBSymbolContext::GetParentInlinedFrameInfo(...) methods.

shared pointers.
Changed the ExecutionContext over to use shared pointers for
the target, process, thread and frame since these objects can
easily go away at any time and any object that was holding onto
an ExecutionContext was running the risk of using a bad object.
Now that the shared pointers for target, process, thread and
frame are just a single pointer (they all use the instrusive
shared pointers) the execution context is much safer and still
the same size.
Made the shared pointers in the the ExecutionContext class protected
and made accessors for all of the various ways to get at the pointers,
references, and shared pointers.

are defined as enumerations. Current bits include:
eEmulateInstructionOptionAutoAdvancePC
eEmulateInstructionOptionIgnoreConditions
Modified the EmulateInstruction class to have a few more pure virtuals that
can help clients understand how many instructions the emulator can handle:
virtual bool
SupportsEmulatingIntructionsOfType (InstructionType inst_type) = 0;
Where instruction types are defined as:
//------------------------------------------------------------------
/// Instruction types
//------------------------------------------------------------------
typedef enum InstructionType
{
eInstructionTypeAny, // Support for any instructions at all (at least one)
eInstructionTypePrologueEpilogue, // All prologue and epilogue instructons that push and pop register values and modify sp/fp
eInstructionTypePCModifying, // Any instruction that modifies the program counter/instruction pointer
eInstructionTypeAll // All instructions of any kind
} InstructionType;
This allows use to tell what an emulator can do and also allows us to request
these abilities when we are finding the plug-in interface.
Added the ability for an EmulateInstruction class to get the register names
for any registers that are part of the emulation. This helps with being able
to dump and log effectively.
The UnwindAssembly class now stores the architecture it was created with in
case it is needed later in the unwinding process.
Added a function that can tell us DWARF register names for ARM that goes
along with the source/Utility/ARM_DWARF_Registers.h file:
source/Utility/ARM_DWARF_Registers.c
Took some of plug-ins out of the lldb_private namespace.

The idea is that the instruction to be emulated is actually executed
on the hardware to be emulated, with the before and after state of the
hardware being captured and 'freeze-dried' into .dat files. The
emulation testing code then loads the before & after state from the
.dat file, emulates the instruction using the before state, and
compares the resulting state to the 'after' state. If they match, the
emulation is accurate, otherwise there is a problem.
The final format of the .dat files needs a bit more work; the plan is
to generalize them a bit and to convert the plain values to key-value pairs.
But I wanted to get this first pass committed.
This commit adds arm instruction emulation testing to the testsuite, along with
many initial .dat files.
It also fixes a bug in the llvm disassembler, where 32-bit thumb opcodes
were getting their upper & lower 16-bits reversed.
There is a new Instruction sub-class, that is intended to be loaded
from a .dat file rather than read from an executable. There is also a
new EmulationStateARM class, for handling the before & after states.
EmulationStates for other architetures can be added later when we
emulate their instructions.
llvm-svn: 129832
- Add ability to control whether or not the emulator advances the
PC register (in the emulation state), if the instruction itself
does not change the pc value..
- Fix a few typos in asm description strings.
- Fix bug in the carry flag calculation.

This allows you to have a platform selected, then specify a triple using
"i386" and have the remaining triple items (vendor, os, and environment) set
automatically.
Many interpreter commands take the "--arch" option to specify an architecture
triple, so now the command options needed to be able to get to the current
platform, so the Options class now take a reference to the interpreter on
construction.
Modified the build LLVM building in the Xcode project to use the new
Xcode project level user definitions:
LLVM_BUILD_DIR - a path to the llvm build directory
LLVM_SOURCE_DIR - a path to the llvm sources for the llvm that will be used to build lldb
LLVM_CONFIGURATION - the configuration that lldb is built for (Release,
Release+Asserts, Debug, Debug+Asserts).
I also changed the LLVM build to not check if "lldb/llvm" is a symlink and
then assume it is a real llvm build directory versus the unzipped llvm.zip
package, so now you can actually have a "lldb/llvm" directory in your lldb
sources.

Move InstructionLLVM out of DisassemblerLLVM class.
Add instruction emulation function calls to SBInstruction and SBInstructionList APIs.

an architecture into ArchSpec:
uint32_t
ArchSpec::GetMinimumOpcodeByteSize() const;
uint32_t
ArchSpec::GetMaximumOpcodeByteSize() const;
Added an AddressClass to the Instruction class in Disassembler.h.
This allows decoded instructions to know know if they are code,
code with alternate ISA (thumb), or even data which can be mixed
into code. The instruction does have an address, but it is a good
idea to cache this value so we don't have to look it up more than
once.
Fixed an issue in Opcode::SetOpcodeBytes() where the length wasn't
getting set.
Changed:
bool
SymbolContextList::AppendIfUnique (const SymbolContext& sc);
To:
bool
SymbolContextList::AppendIfUnique (const SymbolContext& sc,
bool merge_symbol_into_function);
This function was typically being used when looking up functions
and symbols. Now if you lookup a function, then find the symbol,
they can be merged into the same symbol context and not cause
multiple symbol contexts to appear in a symbol context list that
describes the same function.
Fixed the SymbolContext not equal operator which was causing mixed
mode disassembly to not work ("disassembler --mixed --name main").
Modified the disassembler classes to know about the fact we know,
for a given architecture, what the min and max opcode byte sizes
are. The InstructionList class was modified to return the max
opcode byte size for all of the instructions in its list.
These two fixes means when disassemble a list of instructions and dump
them and show the opcode bytes, we can format the output more
intelligently when showing opcode bytes. This affects any architectures
that have varying opcode byte sizes (x86_64 and i386). Knowing the max
opcode byte size also helps us to be able to disassemble N instructions
without having to re-read data if we didn't read enough bytes.
Added the ability to set the architecture for the disassemble command.
This means you can easily cross disassemble data for any supported
architecture. I also added the ability to specify "thumb" as an
architecture so that we can force disassembly into thumb mode when
needed. In GDB this was done using a hack of specifying an odd
address when disassembling. I don't want to repeat this hack in LLDB,
so the auto detection between ARM and thumb is failing, just specify
thumb when disassembling:
(lldb) disassemble --arch thumb --name main
You can also have data in say an x86_64 file executable and disassemble
data as any other supported architecture:
% lldb a.out
Current executable set to 'a.out' (x86_64).
(lldb) b main
(lldb) run
(lldb) disassemble --arch thumb --count 2 --start-address 0x0000000100001080 --bytes
0x100001080: 0xb580 push {r7, lr}
0x100001082: 0xaf00 add r7, sp, #0
Fixed Target::ReadMemory(...) to be able to deal with Address argument object
that isn't section offset. When an address object was supplied that was
out on the heap or stack, target read memory would fail. Disassembly uses
Target::ReadMemory(...), and the example above where we disassembler thumb
opcodes in an x86 binary was failing do to this bug.

plugin by name on the command line for when there is more than one disassembler
plugin.
Taught the Opcode class to dump itself so that "disassembler -b" will dump
the bytes correctly for each opcode type. Modified all places that were passing
the opcode bytes buffer in so that the bytes could be displayed to just pass
in a bool that indicates if we should dump the opcode bytes since the opcode
now lives inside llvm_private::Instruction.

to the debugger from GUI windows. Previously there was one global debugger
instance that could be accessed that had its own command interpreter and
current state (current target/process/thread/frame). When a GUI debugger
was attached, if it opened more than one window that each had a console
window, there were issues where the last one to setup the global debugger
object won and got control of the debugger.
To avoid this we now create instances of the lldb_private::Debugger that each
has its own state:
- target list for targets the debugger instance owns
- current process/thread/frame
- its own command interpreter
- its own input, output and error file handles to avoid conflicts
- its own input reader stack
So now clients should call:
SBDebugger::Initialize(); // (static function)
SBDebugger debugger (SBDebugger::Create());
// Use which ever file handles you wish
debugger.SetErrorFileHandle (stderr, false);
debugger.SetOutputFileHandle (stdout, false);
debugger.SetInputFileHandle (stdin, true);
// main loop
SBDebugger::Terminate(); // (static function)
SBDebugger::Initialize() and SBDebugger::Terminate() are ref counted to
ensure nothing gets destroyed too early when multiple clients might be
attached.
Cleaned up the command interpreter and the CommandObject and all subclasses
to take more appropriate arguments.
