A runtime support value is a ValueObject whose only purpose is to support some language runtime's operation, but it does not directly provide any user-visible benefit
As such, unless the user is working on the runtime support, it is mostly safe for them not to see such a value when debugging
It is a language runtime's job to check whether a ValueObject is a support value, and that - in conjunction with a target setting - is used by frame variable and target variable
SBFrame::GetVariables gets a new overload with yet another flag to dictate whether to return those support values to the caller - that which defaults to the setting's value

Why? Debugger::FormatPrompt() would run through the format prompt every time and parse it and emit it piece by piece. It also did formatting differently depending on which key/value pair it was parsing.
The new code improves on this with the following features:
1 - Allow format strings to be parsed into a FormatEntity::Entry which can contain multiple child FormatEntity::Entry objects. This FormatEntity::Entry is a parsed version of what was previously always done in Debugger::FormatPrompt() so it is more efficient to emit formatted strings using the new parsed FormatEntity::Entry.
2 - Allows errors in format strings to be shown immediately when setting the settings (frame-format, thread-format, disassembly-format
3 - Allows auto completion by implementing a new OptionValueFormatEntity and switching frame-format, thread-format, and disassembly-format settings over to using it.
4 - The FormatEntity::Entry for each of the frame-format, thread-format, disassembly-format settings only replaces the old one if the format parses correctly
5 - Combines all consecutive string values together for efficient output. This means all "${ansi.*}" keys and all desensitized characters like "\n" "\t" "\0721" "\x23" will get combined with their previous strings
6 - ${*.script:} (like "${var.script:mymodule.my_var_function}") have all been switched over to use ${script.*:} "${script.var:mymodule.my_var_function}") to make the format easier to parse as I don't believe anyone was using these format string power user features.
7 - All key values pairs are defined in simple C arrays of entries so it is much easier to add new entries.
These changes pave the way for subsequent modifications where we can modify formats to do more (like control the width of value strings can do more and add more functionality more easily like string formatting to control the width, printf formats and more).

This is necessary because the byte size of an ObjC class type is not reliably statically knowable (e.g. because superclasses sit deep in frameworks that we have no debug info for)
The lack of reliable size info is a problem when trying to freeze-dry an ObjC instance (not the pointer, the pointee)
This commit lays the foundation for having language runtimes help in figuring out byte sizes, and having ClangASTType ask for runtime help

Previously using HostThread::GetNativeThread() required an ugly
cast to most-derived type. This solves the issue by simply returning
the derived type directly.
llvm-svn: 222185
Fixed include:
- Change Platform::ResolveExecutable(...) to take a ModuleSpec instead of a FileSpec + ArchSpec to help resolve executables correctly when we have just a path + UUID (no arch).
- Add the ability to set the listener in SBLaunchInfo and SBAttachInfo in case you don't want to use the debugger as the default listener.
- Modified all places that use the SBLaunchInfo/SBAttachInfo and the internal ProcessLaunchInfo/ProcessAttachInfo to not take a listener as a parameter since it is in the launch/attach info now
- Load a module's sections by default when removing a module from a target. Since we create JIT modules for expressions and helper functions, we could end up with stale data in the section load list if a module was removed from the target as the section load list would still have entries for the unloaded module. Target now has the following functions to help unload all sections a single or multiple modules:
size_t
Target::UnloadModuleSections (const ModuleList &module_list);
size_t
Target::UnloadModuleSections (const lldb::ModuleSP &module_sp);
llvm-svn: 222167
The issues were:
- If you called this function with any arch other than the default target architecture, creating the target would fail because the Target::GetDefaultArchitecture() would not match the single architecture in the file specified. This caused running the test suite remotely with lldb-platform to fail many many tests due to the bad target.
- It would specify the currently selected platform which might not work for the specified platform
All other SBDebugger::CreateTarget calls do not assume an architecture or platform and if they aren't specified, they don't auto select the wrong one for you.
With this fix, SBTarget SBDebugger::CreateTarget (const char *filename) now behaves like the other SBDebugger::CreateTarget() variants.

Two flags are introduced:
- preferred display language (as in, ObjC vs. C++)

The problem was that SBTarget::ReadMemory() was making a new section offset lldb_private::Address by doing:
size_t
SBTarget::ReadMemory (const SBAddress addr,
void *buf,
size_t size,
lldb::SBError &error)
{
...
lldb_private::Address addr_priv(addr.GetFileAddress(), NULL);
bytes_read = target_sp->ReadMemory(addr_priv, false, buf, size, err_priv);
This is wrong. If you get the file addresss from the "addr" argument and try to read memory using that, it will think the file address is a load address and it will try to resolve it accordingly. This will work fine if your executable is loaded at the same address (no slide), but it won't work if there is a slide.
The fix is to just pass along the "addr.ref()" instead of making a new addr_priv as this will pass along the lldb_private::Address that is inside the SBAddress (which is what we want), and not always change it into something that becomes a load address (if we are running), or abmigious file address (think address zero when you have 150 shared libraries that have sections that start at zero, which one would you pick). The main reason for passing a section offset address to SBTarget::ReadMemory() is so you _can_ read from the actual section + offset that is specified in the SBAddress.

If it has an Address object, it is assumed to be Valid.
Change SBAddress to always have an Address object and check
whether it is valid or not in those case.
This is fixing a subtle problem where we ended up with
a SBAddress with an Address of LLDB_INVALID_ADDRESS could
run through a copy constructor and turn into an SBAddress
with no Address object being backed (because it wasn't
distinguishing between invalid-Address versus no-Address.)
The cost of an Address object is not high and this will be
an easy mistake for someone else to make; I'm fixing
SBAddress so it doesn't come up again.

This works similarly to the {thread/frame/process/target.script:...} feature - you write a summary string, part of which is
${var.script:someFuncName}
someFuncName is expected to be declared as
def someFuncName(SBValue,otherArgument) - essentially the same as a summary function
Since . -> [] are the only allowed separators, and % is used for custom formatting, .script: would not be a legitimate symbol anyway, which makes this non-ambiguous

There were many issues with synchronous mode that we discovered when started to try and add a "batch" mode. There was a race condition where the event handling thread might consume events when in sync mode and other times the Process::WaitForProcessToStop() would consume them. This also led to places where the Process IO handler might or might not get popped when it needed to be.

This patch gives LLDB some ability to interact with AddressSanitizer runtime library, on top of what we already have (historical memory stack traces provided by ASan). Namely, that's the ability to stop on an error caught by ASan, and access the report information that are associated with it. The report information is also exposed into SB API.
More precisely this patch...
adds a new plugin type, InstrumentationRuntime, which should serve as a generic superclass for other instrumentation runtime libraries, these plugins get notified when modules are loaded, so they get a chance to "activate" when a specific dynamic library is loaded
an instance of this plugin type, AddressSanitizerRuntime, which activates itself when it sees the ASan dynamic library or founds ASan statically linked in the executable
adds a collection of these plugins into the Process class
AddressSanitizerRuntime sets an internal breakpoint on __asan::AsanDie(), and when this breakpoint gets hit, it retrieves the report information from ASan
this breakpoint is then exposed as a new StopReason, eStopReasonInstrumentation, with a new StopInfo subclass, InstrumentationRuntimeStopInfo
the StopInfo superclass is extended with a m_extended_info field (it's a StructuredData::ObjectSP), that can hold arbitrary JSON-like data, which is the way the new plugin provides the report data
the "thread info" command now accepts a "-s" flag that prints out the JSON data of a stop reason (same way the "-j" flag works now)
SBThread has a new API, GetStopReasonExtendedInfoAsJSON, which dumps the JSON string into a SBStream
adds a test case for all of this
I plan to also get rid of the original ASan plugin (memory history stack traces) and use an instance of AddressSanitizerRuntime for that purpose.

output style can be customized. Change the built-in default to be
more similar to gdb's disassembly formatting.
The disassembly-format for a gdb-like output is
${addr-file-or-load} <${function.name-without-args}${function.concrete-only-addr-offset-no-padding}>:
The disassembly-format for the lldb style output is

The way to do this is to write a synthetic child provider for your type, and have it vend the (optional) get_value function.
If get_value is defined, and it returns a valid SBValue, that SBValue's value (as in lldb_private::Value) will be used as the synthetic ValueObject's Value
The rationale for doing things this way is twofold:
- there are many possible ways to define a "value" (SBData, a Python number, ...) but SBValue seems general enough as a thing that stores a "value", so we just trade values that way and that keeps our currency trivial
- we could introduce a new level of layering (ValueObjectSyntheticValue), a new kind of formatter (synthetic value producer), but that would complicate the model (can I have a dynamic with no synthetic children but synthetic value? synthetic value with synthetic children but no dynamic?), and I really couldn't see much benefit to be reaped from this added complexity in the matrix
On the other hand, just defining a synthetic child provider with a get_value but returning no actual children is easy enough that it's not a significant road-block to adoption of this feature

For the Objective-C case, we do not have a "function type" notion, so we actually end up wrapping the clang ObjCMethodDecl in the Impl object, and ask function-y questions of it

This adds a new SBExpressionOptions::SetLanguage API for selecting a

I added adds a new SBThread::GetInfoItemByPathString for retriving
information about a thread from that thread's StructuredData.
I added a new StructuredData class for representing

Helper functions to read JSON and create a StructuredData object,
and to print a StructuredData object in JSON format are included.
A few Cocoa / Cocoa Touch data formatters were updated by Enrico
to track changes in iOS 8 / Yosemite.
Before we query a thread's extended information, the system runtime may
provide hints to the remote debug stub that it will use to retrieve values
out of runtime structures. I added a new SystemRuntime method
AddThreadExtendedInfoPacketHints which allows the SystemRuntime to add
key-value type data to the initial request that we send to the remote stub.
The thread-format formatter string can now retrieve values out of a thread's
extended info structured data. The default thread-format string picks up
two of these - thread.info.activity.name and thread.info.trace_messages.
I added a new "jThreadExtendedInfo" packet in debugserver; I will
add documentation to the lldb-gdb-remote.txt doc soon. It accepts
JSON formatted arguments (most importantly, "thread":threadnum) and
it returns a variety of information regarding the thread to lldb
in JSON format. This JSON return is scanned into a StructuredData
object that is associated with the thread; UI layers can query the
thread's StructuredData to see if key-values are present, and if
so, show them to the user. These key-values are likely to be
specific to different targets with some commonality among many
targets. For instance, many targets will be able to advertise the
pthread_t value for a thread.
I added an initial rough cut of "thread info" command which will print
the information about a thread from the jThreadExtendedInfo result.
I need to do more work to make this format reasonably.
Han Ming added calls into the pmenergy and pmsample libraries if

Rationale:
Pretty simply, the idea is that sometimes type names are way too long and contain way too many details for the average developer to care about. For instance, a plain ol' vector of int might be shown as
std::__1::vector<int, std::__1::allocator<....
rather than the much simpler std::vector<int> form, which is what most developers would actually type in their code
Proposed solution:
Introduce a notion of "display name" and a corresponding API GetDisplayTypeName() to return such a crafted for visual representation type name
Obviously, the display name and the fully qualified (or "true") name are not necessarily the same - that's the whole point
LLDB could choose to pick the "display name" as its one true notion of a type name, and if somebody really needs the fully qualified version of it, let them deal with the problem
Or, LLDB could rename what it currently calls the "type name" to be the "display name", and add new APIs for the fully qualified name, making the display name the default choice
The choice that I am making here is that the type name will keep meaning the same, and people who want a type name suited for display will explicitly ask for one
It is the less risky/disruptive choice - and it should eventually make it fairly obvious when someone is asking for the wrong type
Caveats:
- for now, GetDisplayTypeName() == GetTypeName(), there is no logic to produce customized display type names yet.
- while the fully-qualified type name is still the main key to the kingdom of data formatters, if we start showing custom names to people, those should match formatters
