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
- introduced two new classes ValueObjectConstResultChild and ValueObjectConstResultImpl: the first one is a ValueObjectChild obtained from
a ValueObjectConstResult, the second is a common implementation backend for VOCR and VOCRCh of method calls meant to read through pointers stored
in frozen objects ; now such reads transparently move from host to target as required
- as a consequence of the above, removed code that made target-memory copies of expression results in several places throughout LLDB, and also
removed code that enabled to recognize an expression result VO as such
- introduced a new GetPointeeData() method in ValueObject that lets you read a given amount of objects of type T from a VO
representing a T* or T[], and doing dereferences transparently
in private layer it returns a DataExtractor ; in public layer it returns an instance of a newly created lldb::SBData
- as GetPointeeData() does the right thing for both frozen and non-frozen ValueObject's, reimplemented ReadPointedString() to use it
en lieu of doing the raw read itself
- introduced a new GetData() method in ValueObject that lets you get a copy of the data that backs the ValueObject (for pointers,
this returns the address without any previous dereferencing steps ; for arrays it actually reads the whole chunk of memory)
in public layer this returns an SBData, just like GetPointeeData()
- introduced a new CreateValueFromData() method in SBValue that lets you create a new SBValue from a chunk of data wrapped in an SBData
the limitation to remember for this kind of SBValue is that they have no address: extracting the address-of for these objects (with any
of GetAddress(), GetLoadAddress() and AddressOf()) will return invalid values
- added several tests to check that "p"-ing objects (STL classes, char* and char[]) will do the right thing
Solved a bug where global pointers to global variables were not dereferenced correctly for display
New target setting "max-string-summary-length" gives the maximum number of characters to show in a string when summarizing it, instead of the hardcoded 128
Solved a bug where the summary for char[] and char* would not be shown if the ValueObject's were dumped via the "p" command
Removed m_pointers_point_to_load_addrs from ValueObject. Introduced a new m_address_type_of_children, which each ValueObject can set to tell the address type
of any pointers and/or references it creates. In the current codebase, this is load address most of the time (the only notable exception being file
addresses that generate file address children UNLESS we have a live process)
Updated help text for summary-string
Fixed an issue in STL formatters where std::stlcontainer::iterator would match the container's synthetic children providers
Edited the syntax and help for some commands to have proper argument types
llvm-svn: 139160
register names when dumping variable locations and location lists. Also did
some cleanup where "int" types were being used for "lldb::RegisterKind"
values.
llvm-svn: 138988
DWARF accelerator table sections to the DWARF parser. These sections are similar
to the .debug_pubnames and .debug_pubtypes, but they are designed to be hash tables
that are saved to disc in a way that the sections can just be loaded into memory
and used without any work on the debugger side. The .debug_pubnames and .debug_pubtypes
sections are not ordered, contain a copy of the name in the section itself which
makes these sections quite large, they only include publicly exported names (so no
static functions, no types defined inside functions), many compilers put different
information in them making them very unreliable so most debugger ignore these sections
and parse the DWARF on their own. The tables must also be parsed and sorted in order
to be used effectively. The new sections can be quickly loaded and very efficiently be used
to do name to DIE lookups with very little up front work. The format of these new
sections will be changing while we work out the bugs, but we hope to have really
fast name to DIE lookups soon.
llvm-svn: 138979
revision and adding a patch that fixes an AsmParser
crash on ARM.
One feature that we unfortunately lost (for the
moment!) is the ability to cast unknown code symbols
to arbitrary function types and put the resulting
function pointer in a result variable. This feature
will be back, though.
llvm-svn: 138036
cause extra shared pointer references to one or more modules to be leaked.
This would cause many object files to stay around the life of LLDB, so after
a recompile and rexecution, we would keep adding more and more memory. After
fixing the leak, we found many cases where leaked stack frames were still
being used and causing crashes in the test suite. These are now all resolved.
llvm-svn: 137516
ability to dump more information about modules in "target modules list". We
can now dump the shared pointer reference count for modules, the pointer to
the module itself (in case performance tools can help track down who has
references to said pointer), and the modification time.
Added "target delete [target-idx ...]" to be able to delete targets when they
are no longer needed. This will help track down memory usage issues and help
to resolve when module ref counts keep getting incremented. If the command gets
no arguments, the currently selected target will be deleted. If any arguments
are given, they must all be valid target indexes (use the "target list"
command to get the current target indexes).
Took care of a bunch of "no newline at end of file" warnings.
TimeValue objects can now dump their time to a lldb_private::Stream object.
Modified the "target modules list --global" command to not error out if there
are no targets since it doesn't require a target.
Fixed an issue in the MacOSX DYLD dynamic loader plug-in where if a shared
library was updated on disk, we would keep using the older one, even if it was
updated.
Don't allow the ModuleList::GetSharedModule(...) to return an empty module.
Previously we could specify a valid path on disc to a module, and specify an
architecture that wasn't contained in that module and get a shared pointer to
a module that wouldn't be able to return an object file or a symbol file. We
now make sure an object file can be extracted prior to adding the shared pointer
to the module to get added to the shared list.
llvm-svn: 137196
if your datatype provides synthetic children, "frame variable object[index]" should now do the right thing
in cases where the above syntax would have been rejected before, i.e.
object is not a pointer nor an array (frame variable ignores potential overload of [])
object is a pointer to an Objective-C class (which cannot be dereferenced)
expression will still run operator[] if available and complain if it cannot do so
synthetic children by name do not work yet
llvm-svn: 137097
that detects what context the current expression is
meant to execute in. LLDB now properly consults
the method declaration in the debug information
rather than trying to hunt down the "this" or "self"
pointer by name, which can be misleading.
Other fixes include:
- LLDB now properly detects that it is inside
an inlined C++ member function.
- LLDB now allows access to non-const members when
in const code.
- The functions in SymbolFile that locate the
DeclContext containing a DIE have been renamed
to reflect what they actually do. I have added
new functions that find the DeclContext for the
DIE itself.
I have also introduced testcases for C++ and
Objective-C.
llvm-svn: 136999
a native architecture that doesn't match the universal
slice that is being used for all executables, we weren't
correctly descending through the platform architectures
and resolving the binaries.
llvm-svn: 136980
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
Fixed a bug where Objective-C variables coming out of the expression parser could crash the Python synthetic providers:
- expression parser output has a "frozen data" component, which is a byte-exact copy of the value (in host memory),
if trying to read into memory based on the host address, LLDB would crash. we are now passing the correct (target)
pointer to the Python code
Objective-C "id" variables are now formatted according to their dynamic type, if the -d option to frame variable is used:
- Code based on the Objective-C 2.0 runtime is used to obtain this information without running code on the target
llvm-svn: 136695
completes the support in the LLDB expression parser
for incomplete types. Clang now imports types
lazily, and we complete those types as necessary.
Changes include:
- ClangASTSource now supports three APIs which it
passes to ClangExpressionDeclMap. CompleteType
completes a TagDecl or an ObjCInterfaceDecl when
needed; FindExternalVisibleDecls finds named
entities that are visible in the expression's
scope; and FindExternalLexicalDecls performs a
(potentially restricted) search for entities
inside a lexical scope like a namespace. These
changes mean that entities in namespaces should
work normally.
- The SymbolFileDWARF code for searching a context
for a specific name is now more general, and can
search arbitrary contexts.
- We are continuing to adapt our calls into LLVM
from interfaces that take start and end iterators
when accepting multiple items to interfaces that
use ArrayRef.
- I have cleaned up some code, especially our use
of namespaces.
This change is neutral for our testsuite and greatly
improves correctness for large programs (like Clang)
with complicated type systems. It should also lay
the groundwork for improving the expression parser's
performance as we are lazier and lazier about
providing type information.
llvm-svn: 136555
- Completely new implementation of SBType
- Various enhancements in several other classes
Python synthetic children providers for std::vector<T>, std::list<T> and std::map<K,V>:
- these return the actual elements into the container as the children of the container
- basic template name parsing that works (hopefully) on both Clang and GCC
- find them in examples/synthetic and in the test suite in functionalities/data-formatter/data-formatter-python-synth
New summary string token ${svar :
- the syntax is just the same as in ${var but this new token lets you read the values
coming from the synthetic children provider instead of the actual children
- Python providers above provide a synthetic child len that returns the number of elements
into the container
Full bug fix for the issue in which getting byte size for a non-complete type would crash LLDB
Several other fixes, including:
- inverted the order of arguments in the ClangASTType constructor
- EvaluationPoint now only returns SharedPointer's to Target and Process
- the help text for several type subcommands now correctly indicates argument-less options as such
llvm-svn: 136504
- Summaries for char*, const char* and char[] are loaded at startup as
system-wide summaries. This means you cannot delete them unless you use
the -a option to type summary delete/clear
- You can add your own system-wide summaries by using the -w option to type
summary add
Several code improvements for the Python summaries feature
llvm-svn: 135326
by name by adding an extra parameter to the lldb_private::Target breakpoint
setting functions.
Added a function in the DWARF symbol file plug-in that can dump errors
and prints out which DWARF file the error is happening in so we can track
down what used to be assertions easily.
Fixed the MacOSX kernel plug-in to properly read the kext images and set
the kext breakpoint to watch for kexts as they are loaded.
llvm-svn: 134990
- a new --name option for "type summary add" lets you give a name to a summary
- a new --summary option for "frame variable" lets you bind a named summary to one or more variables
${var%s} now works for printing the value of 0-terminated CStrings
type format test case now tests for cascading
- this is disabled on GCC because GCC may end up stripping typedef chains, basically breaking cascading
new design for the FormatNavigator class
new template class CleanUp2 meant to support cleanup routines with 1 additional parameter beyond resource handle
llvm-svn: 134943
with the "target modules lookup --address <addr>" command. The variable
ID's, names, types, location for the address, and declaration is
displayed.
This can really help with crash logs since we get, on MacOSX at least,
the registers for the thread that crashed so it is often possible to
figure out some of the variable contents.
llvm-svn: 134886
use lldb_private::Target::ReadMemory(...) to allow constant strings
to be displayed in global variables prior on in between process
execution.
Centralized the variable declaration dumping into:
bool
Variable::DumpDeclaration (Stream *s, bool show_fullpaths, bool show_module);
Fixed an issue if you used "target variable --regex <regex>" where the
variable name would not be displayed, but the regular expression would.
Fixed an issue when viewing global variables through "target variable"
might not display correctly when doing DWARF in object files.
llvm-svn: 134878
Made it so that you can create synthetic children of array
value objects. This is for creating array members when the
array index is out of range. This comes in handy when you have
a structure definition like:
struct Collection
{
uint32_t count;
Item array[0];
};
"array" has 1 item, but many times in practice there are more
items in "item_array".
This allows you to do:
(lldb) target variable g_collection.array[3]
To implement this, the get child at index has been modified
to have a "ignore_array_bounds" boolean that can be set to true.
llvm-svn: 134846
variable where we were using a static cast when we shouldn't have been.
Fixed another array related issue where we weren't looking through a typedef.
llvm-svn: 134823
variables prior to running your binary. Zero filled sections now get
section data correctly filled with zeroes when Target::ReadMemory
reads from the object file section data.
Added new option groups and option values for file lists. I still need
to hook up all of the options to "target variable" to allow more complete
introspection by file and shlib.
Added the ability for ValueObjectVariable objects to be created with
only the target as the execution context. This allows them to be read
from the object files through Target::ReadMemory(...).
Added a "virtual Module * GetModule()" function to the ValueObject
class. By default it will look to the parent variable object and
return its module. The module is needed when we have global variables
that have file addresses (virtual addresses that are specific to
module object files) and in turn allows global variables to be displayed
prior to running.
Removed all of the unused proxy object support that bit rotted in
lldb_private::Value.
Replaced a lot of places that used "FileSpec::Compare (lhs, rhs) == 0" code
with the more efficient "FileSpec::Equal (lhs, rhs)".
Improved logging in GDB remote plug-in.
llvm-svn: 134579
objective C or C++ methods when "self" or "this" were in scope, but had
invalid locations in a DWARF location list. The lack of a valid value caused
us to use an invalid type value and then we tried to import that invalid
value and we would crash.
llvm-svn: 134518
- ${*expr} now simply means to dereference expr before actually using it
- bitfields, array ranges and pointer ranges now work in a (hopefully) more natural and language-compliant way
a new class TypeHierarchyNavigator replicates the behavior of the FormatManager in going through type hierarchies
when one-lining summary strings, children's summaries can be used as well as values
llvm-svn: 134458
- type names can now be regular expressions (exact matching is done first, and is faster)
- integral (and floating) types can be printed as bitfields, i.e. ${var[low-high]} will extract bits low thru high of the value and print them
- array subscripts are supported, both for arrays and for pointers. the syntax is ${*var[low-high]}, or ${*var[]} to print the whole array (the latter only works for statically sized arrays)
- summary is now printed by default when a summary string references a variable. if that variable's type has no summary, value is printed instead. to force value, you can use %V as a format specifier
- basic support for ObjectiveC:
- ObjectiveC inheritance chains are now walked through
- %@ can be specified as a summary format, to print the ObjectiveC runtime description for an object
- some bug fixes
llvm-svn: 134293
"struct ", "class ", and "union " from the start of any type names that are
extracted from clang QualType objects. I had to fix test suite cases that
were expecting the struct/union/class prefix to be there.
llvm-svn: 134132
implements three commands:
type summary add <format> <typename1> [<typename2> ...]
type summary delete <typename1> [<typename2> ...]
type summary list [<typename1> [<typename2>] ...]
type summary clear
This allows you to specify the default format that will be used to display
summaries for variables, shown when you use "frame variable" or "expression", or the SBValue classes.
Examples:
type summary add "x = ${var.x}" Point
type summary list
type summary add --one-liner SimpleType
llvm-svn: 134108
level in the public API.
Also modified the ValueObject values to be able to display global variables
without having a valid running process. The globals will read themselves from
the object file section data if there is no process, and from the process if
there is one.
Also fixed an issue where modifications for dynamic types could cause child
values of ValueObjects to not show up if the value was unable to evaluate
itself (children of NULL pointer objects).
llvm-svn: 134102
inspection of namespaces in the expression parser.
ClangExpressionDeclMap hitherto reported that namespaces had
been completely imported, even though the namespaces are
returned empty. To deal with this situation, ClangASTSource
was recently extended with an API to complete incomplete type
definitions, and, for greater efficiency, to complete these
definitions partially, returning only those objects that have
a given name.
This commit supports these APIs on LLDB's side, and uses it
to provide information on types resident in namespaces.
Namespaces are now imported as they were -- that is to say,
empty -- but with minimal import mode on. This means that
Clang will come back and request their contents by name as
needed. We now respond with information on the contained
types; this will be followed soon by information on functions
and variables.
llvm-svn: 133852
This commit adds a new top level command named "type". Currently this command
implements three commands:
type format add <format> <typename1> [<typename2> ...]
type format delete <typename1> [<typename2> ...]
type format list [<typename1> [<typename2>] ...]
This allows you to specify the default format that will be used to display
types when you use "frame variable" or "expression", or the SBValue classes.
Examples:
// Format uint*_t as hex
type format add x uint16_t uint32_t uint64_t
// Format intptr_t as a pointer
type format add p intptr_t
The format characters are the same as "printf" for the most part with many
additions. These format character specifiers are also used in many other
commands ("frame variable" for one). The current list of format characters
include:
a - char buffer
b - binary
B - boolean
c - char
C - printable char
d - signed decimal
e - float
f - float
g - float
i - signed decimal
I - complex integer
o - octal
O - OSType
p - pointer
s - c-string
u - unsigned decimal
x - hex
X - complex float
y - bytes
Y - bytes with ASCII
llvm-svn: 133728
operator counts due to bad debug DWARF debug info. We now verify the operator
has a valid number of params using the clang operator tables.
llvm-svn: 133375
This us useful because sometomes you have to show a single character as: 'a'
(using eFormatChar) and other times you might have an array of single
charcters for display as: 'a' 'b' 'c', and other times you might want to
show the contents of buffer of characters that can contain non printable
chars: "\0\x22\n123".
This also fixes an issue that currently happens when you have a single character
C string (const char *a = "a"; or char b[1] = { 'b' };) that was being output
as "'a'" incorrectly due to the way the eFormatChar format output worked.
