We had support that assumed that thread local data for a variable could be determined solely from the module in which the variable exists. While this work for linux, it doesn't work for Apple OSs. The DWARF for thread local variables consists of location opcodes that do something like:
DW_OP_const8u (x)
DW_OP_form_tls_address
or
DW_OP_const8u (x)
DW_OP_GNU_push_tls_address
The "x" is allowed to be anything that is needed to determine the location of the variable. For Linux "x" is the offset within the TLS data for a given executable (ModuleSP in LLDB). For Apple OS variants, it is the file address of the data structure that contains a pthread key that can be used with pthread_getspecific() and the offset needed.
This fix passes the "x" along to the thread:
virtual lldb::addr_t
lldb_private::Thread::GetThreadLocalData(const lldb::ModuleSP module, lldb::addr_t tls_file_addr);
Then this is passed along to the DynamicLoader::GetThreadLocalData():
virtual lldb::addr_t
lldb_private::DynamicLoader::GetThreadLocalData(const lldb::ModuleSP module, const lldb::ThreadSP thread, lldb::addr_t tls_file_addr);
This allows each DynamicLoader plug-in do the right thing for the current OS.
The DynamicLoaderMacOSXDYLD was modified to be able to grab the pthread key from the data structure that is in memory and call "void *pthread_getspecific(pthread_key_t key)" to get the value of the thread local storage and it caches it per thread since it never changes.
I had to update the test case to access the thread local data before trying to print it as on Apple OS variants, thread locals are not available unless they have been accessed at least one by the current thread.
I also added a new lldb::ValueType named "eValueTypeVariableThreadLocal" so that we can ask SBValue objects for their ValueType and be able to tell when we have a thread local variable.

Summary:
Along with this, support for an optional argument to the "num_children"
method of a Python synthetic child provider has also been added. These have
been added with the following use case in mind:
Synthetic child providers currently have a method "has_children" and
"num_children". While the former is good enough to know if there are
children, it does not give any insight into how many children there are.
Though the latter serves this purpose, calculating the number for children
of a data structure could be an O(N) operation if the data structure has N
children. The new method added in this change provide a middle ground.
One can call GetNumChildren(K) to know if a child exists at an index K
which can be as large as the callers tolerance can be. If the caller wants
to know about children beyond K, it can make an other call with 2K. If the
synthetic child provider maintains state about it counting till K
previosly, then the next call is only an O(K) operation. Infact, all
calls made progressively with steps of K will be O(K) operations.

Create a new "lldb_private::CompilerDeclContext" class that will replace all direct uses of "clang::DeclContext" when used in compiler agnostic code, yet still allow for conversion to clang::DeclContext subclasses by clang specific code. This completes the abstraction of type parsing by removing all "clang::" references from the SymbolFileDWARF. The new "lldb_private::CompilerDeclContext" class abstracts decl contexts found in compiler type systems so they can be used in internal API calls. The TypeSystem is required to support CompilerDeclContexts with new pure virtual functions that start with "DeclContext" in the member function names. Converted all code that used lldb_private::ClangNamespaceDecl over to use the new CompilerDeclContext class and removed the ClangNamespaceDecl.cpp and ClangNamespaceDecl.h files.
Removed direct use of clang APIs from SBType and now use the abstract type systems to correctly explore types.
Bulk renames for things that used to return a ClangASTType which is now CompilerType:
"Type::GetClangFullType()" to "Type::GetFullCompilerType()"
"Type::GetClangLayoutType()" to "Type::GetLayoutCompilerType()"
"Type::GetClangForwardType()" to "Type::GetForwardCompilerType()"
"Value::GetClangType()" to "Value::GetCompilerType()"
"Value::SetClangType (const CompilerType &)" to "Value::SetCompilerType (const CompilerType &)"
"ValueObject::GetClangType ()" to "ValueObject::GetCompilerType()"
many more renames that are similar.

Add some if/then to avoid calling a function to get dynamic/synthetic types if we know we aren't going to need to call it.
Avoid calling a function that returns a shared pointer twice: once for testing it and once for assigning it (even though that shared pointer is cached inside the value object), it just makes the code a bit clearer.

Since interaction with the python interpreter is moving towards
being more isolated, we won't be able to include this header from
normal files anymore, all includes of it should be localized to
the python library which will live under source/bindings/API/Python
after a future patch.
None of the files that were including this header actually depended
on it anyway, so it was just a dead include in every single instance.

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

Such a persisted version is equivalent to evaluating the value via the expression evaluator, and holding on to the $n result of the expression, except this API can be used on SBValues that do not obviously come from an expression (e.g. are the result of a memory lookup)
Expose this via SBValue::Persist() in our public API layer, and ValueObject::Persist() in the lldb_private layer
Includes testcase

Two flags are introduced:
- preferred display language (as in, ObjC vs. C++)
- summary capping (as in, should a limit be put to the amount of data retrieved)
The meaning - if any - of these options is for individual formatters to establish
The topic of a subsequent commit will be to actually wire these through to individual data formatters
llvm-svn: 221482
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

I started to build on top of that arrangement today, I found that it

defines a protocol that all subclasses will implement. StackFrame
is currently the only subclass and the methods that Frame vends are
nearly identical to StackFrame's old methods.
Update all callers to use Frame*/Frame& instead of pointers to
StackFrames.
This is almost entirely a mechanical change that touches a lot of
the code base so I'm committing it alone. No new functionality is
added with this patch, no new subclasses of Frame exist yet.
I'll probably need to tweak some of the separation, possibly moving
some of StackFrame's methods up in to Frame, but this is a good
starting point.

This commit reimplements the TypeImpl class (the class that backs SBType) in terms of a static,dynamic type pair
This is useful for those cases when the dynamic type of an ObjC variable can only be obtained in terms of an "hollow" type with no ivars
In that case, we could either go with the static type (+iVar information) or with the dynamic type (+inheritance chain)
With the new TypeImpl implementation, we try to combine these two sources of information in order to extract as much information as possible
This should improve the functionality of tools that are using the SBType API to do extensive dynamic type inspection

DumpValueObject() 2.0
This checkin restores pre-Xcode5 functionality to the "po" (expr -O) command:
- expr now has a new --description-verbosity (-v) argument, which takes either compact or full as a value (-v is the same as -vfull)
When the full mode is on, "po" will show the extended output with type name, persistent variable name and value, as in
(lldb) expr -O -v -- foo
(id) $0 = 0x000000010010baf0 {
1 = 2;
2 = 3;
}
When -v is omitted, or -vcompact is passed, the Xcode5-style output will be shown, as in
(lldb) expr -O -- foo
{
1 = 2;
2 = 3;
}
- for a non-ObjectiveC object, LLDB will still try to retrieve a summary and/or value to display
(lldb) po 5
5
-v also works in this mode
(lldb) expr -O -vfull -- 5
(int) $4 = 5
On top of that, this is a major refactoring of the ValueObject printing code. The functionality is now factored into a ValueObjectPrinter class for easier maintenance in the future
DumpValueObject() was turned into an instance method ValueObject::Dump() which simply calls through to the printer code, Dump_Impl has been removed

Summary:
This merge brings in the improved 'platform' command that knows how to
interface with remote machines; that is, query OS/kernel information, push
and pull files, run shell commands, etc... and implementation for the new
communication packets that back that interface, at least on Darwin based
operating systems via the POSIXPlatform class. Linux support is coming soon.
Verified the test suite runs cleanly on Linux (x86_64), build OK on Mac OS
X Mountain Lion.
Additional improvements (not in the source SVN branch 'lldb-platform-work'):
- cmake build scripts for lldb-platform
- cleanup test suite
- documentation stub for qPlatform_RunCommand
- use log class instead of printf() directly
- reverted work-in-progress-looking changes from test/types/TestAbstract.py that work towards running the test suite remotely.
- add new logging category 'platform'

A long time ago we start with clang types that were created by the symbol files and there were many functions in lldb_private::ClangASTContext that helped. Later we create ClangASTType which contains a clang::ASTContext and an opauque QualType, but we didn't switch over to fully using it. There were a lot of places where we would pass around a raw clang_type_t and also pass along a clang::ASTContext separately. This left room for error.
This checkin change all type code over to use ClangASTType everywhere and I cleaned up the interfaces quite a bit. Any code that was in ClangASTContext that was type related, was moved over into ClangASTType. All code that used these types was switched over to use all of the new goodness.

is running, the dynamic and synthetic values can't really be computed, and the underlying memory may be
incoherent.

LLDB is crashing when logging is enabled from lldb-perf-clang. This has to do with the global destructor chain as the process and its threads are being torn down.

Data formatters now cache themselves.
This commit provides a new formatter cache mechanism. Upon resolving a formatter (summary or synthetic), LLDB remembers the resolution for later faster retrieval.
Also moved the data formatters subsystem from the core to its own group and folder for easier management, and done some code reorganization.
The ObjC runtime v1 now returns a class name if asked for the dynamic type of an object. This is required for formatters caching to work with the v1 runtime.
Lastly, this commit disposes of the old hack where ValueObjects had to remember whether they were queried for formatters with their static or dynamic type.
Now the ValueObjectDynamicValue class works well enough that we can use its dynamic value setting for the same purpose.

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.

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)
