into some cleanup I have been wanting to do when reading/writing registers.
Previously all RegisterContext subclasses would need to implement:
virtual bool
ReadRegisterBytes (uint32_t reg, DataExtractor &data);
virtual bool
WriteRegisterBytes (uint32_t reg, DataExtractor &data, uint32_t data_offset = 0);
There is now a new class specifically designed to hold register values:
lldb_private::RegisterValue
The new register context calls that subclasses must implement are:
virtual bool
ReadRegister (const RegisterInfo *reg_info, RegisterValue ®_value) = 0;
virtual bool
WriteRegister (const RegisterInfo *reg_info, const RegisterValue ®_value) = 0;
The RegisterValue class must be big enough to handle any register value. The
class contains an enumeration for the value type, and then a union for the
data value. Any integer/float values are stored directly in an appropriate
host integer/float. Anything bigger is stored in a byte buffer that has a length
and byte order. The RegisterValue class also knows how to copy register value
bytes into in a buffer with a specified byte order which can be used to write
the register value down into memory, and this does the right thing when not
all bytes from the register values are needed (getting a uint8 from a uint32
register value..).
All RegiterContext and other sources have been switched over to using the new
regiter value class.

command line driver, including the lldb prompt being output by
editline, the asynchronous process output & error messages, and
asynchronous messages written by target stop-hooks.
As part of this it introduces a new Stream class,
StreamAsynchronousIO. A StreamAsynchronousIO object is created with a
broadcaster, who will eventually broadcast the stream's data for a
listener to handle, and an event type indicating what type of event
the broadcaster will broadcast. When the Write method is called on a
StreamAsynchronousIO object, the data is appended to an internal
string. When the Flush method is called on a StreamAsynchronousIO
object, it broadcasts it's data string and clears the string.
Anything in lldb-core that needs to generate asynchronous output for
the end-user should use the StreamAsynchronousIO objects.
I have also added a new notification type for InputReaders, to let
them know that a asynchronous output has been written. This is to
allow the input readers to, for example, refresh their prompts and
lines, if desired. I added the case statements to all the input
readers to catch this notification, but I haven't added any code for
handling them yet (except to the IOChannel input reader).

set by default when dumping registers. If you want to see all of the register
sets you can use the "--all" option:
(lldb) register read --all
If you want to just see some register sets, you can currently specify them
by index:
(lldb) register read --set 0 --set 2
We need to get shorter register set names soon so we can specify the register
sets by name without having to type too much. I will make this change soon.
You can also have any integer encoded registers resolve the address values
back to any code or data from the object files using the "--lookup" option.
Below is sample output when stopped in the libc function "puts" with some
const strings in registers:
Process 8973 stopped
* thread #1: tid = 0x2c03, 0x00007fff828fa30f libSystem.B.dylib`puts + 1, stop reason = instruction step into
frame #0: 0x00007fff828fa30f libSystem.B.dylib`puts + 1

fs = 0x0000000000000000
gs = 0x0000000000000000
As we can see, we see two constant strings and the PC (register "rip") is
showing the code it resolves to.
I fixed the register "--format" option to work as expected.
Added a setting to disable skipping the function prologue when setting
breakpoints as a target settings variable:
(lldb) settings set target.skip-prologue false
Updated the user settings controller boolean value handler funciton to be able
to take the default value so it can correctly respond to the eVarSetOperationClear
operation.
Did some usability work on the OptionValue classes.
Fixed the "image lookup" command to correctly respond to the "--verbose"
option and display the detailed symbol context information when looking up
line table entries and functions by name. This previously was only working
for address lookups.

the CommandInterpreter where it was always being used.
Make sure that Modules can track their object file offsets correctly to
allow opening of sub object files (like the "__commpage" on darwin).
Modified the Platforms to be able to launch processes. The first part of this
move is the platform soon will become the entity that launches your program
and when it does, it uses a new ProcessLaunchInfo class which encapsulates
all process launching settings. This simplifies the internal APIs needed for
launching. I want to slowly phase out process launching from the process
classes, so for now we can still launch just as we used to, but eventually
the platform is the object that should do the launching.
Modified the Host::LaunchProcess in the MacOSX Host.mm to correctly be able
to launch processes with all of the new eLaunchFlag settings. Modified any
code that was manually launching processes to use the Host::LaunchProcess
functions.
Fixed an issue where lldb_private::Args had implicitly defined copy
constructors that could do the wrong thing. This has now been fixed by adding
an appropriate copy constructor and assignment operator.
Make sure we don't add empty ModuleSP entries to a module list.
Fixed the commpage module creation on MacOSX, but we still need to train
the MacOSX dynamic loader to not get rid of it when it doesn't have an entry
in the all image infos.
Abstracted many more calls from in ProcessGDBRemote down into the
GDBRemoteCommunicationClient subclass to make the classes cleaner and more
efficient.
Fixed the default iOS ARM register context to be correct and also added support
for targets that don't support the qThreadStopInfo packet by selecting the
current thread (only if needed) and then sending a stop reply packet.
Debugserver can now start up with a --unix-socket (-u for short) and can
then bind to port zero and send the port it bound to to a listening process
on the other end. This allows the GDB remote platform to spawn new GDB server
instances (debugserver) to allow platform debugging.

public types and public enums. This was done to keep the SWIG stuff from
parsing all sorts of enums and types that weren't needed, and allows us to
abstract our API better.
llvm-svn: 128239
platform status -- gets status information for the selected platform
platform create <platform-name> -- creates a new instance of a remote platform
platform list -- list all available platforms
platform select -- select a platform instance as the current platform (not working yet)
When using "platform create" it will create a remote platform and make it the
selected platform. For instances for iPhone OS debugging on Mac OS X one can
do:
(lldb) platform create remote-ios --sdk-version=4.0
Remote platform: iOS platform
SDK version: 4.0
SDK path: "/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/4.0"
Not connected to a remote device.
(lldb) file ~/Documents/a.out
Current executable set to '~/Documents/a.out' (armv6).
(lldb) image list
[ 0] /Volumes/work/gclayton/Documents/devb/attach/a.out
[ 1] /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/4.0/Symbols/usr/lib/dyld
[ 2] /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/4.0/Symbols/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib
Note that this is all happening prior to running _or_ connecting to a remote
platform. Once connected to a remote platform the OS version might change which
means we will need to update our dependecies. Also once we run, we will need
to match up the actualy binaries with the actualy UUID's to files in the
SDK, or download and cache them locally.
This is just the start of the remote platforms, but this modification is the
first iteration in getting the platforms really doing something.

correct order. Previously this was tacitly implemented but not
enforced, so it was possible to accidentally do things in the wrong
order and cause problems. This fixes that problem.

of Stephen Wilson's idea (thanks for the input Stephen!). What I ended up
doing was:
- Got rid of ArchSpec::CPU (which was a generic CPU enumeration that mimics
the contents of llvm::Triple::ArchType). We now rely upon the llvm::Triple
to give us the machine type from llvm::Triple::ArchType.
- There is a new ArchSpec::Core definition which further qualifies the CPU
core we are dealing with into a single enumeration. If you need support for
a new Core and want to debug it in LLDB, it must be added to this list. In
the future we can allow for dynamic core registration, but for now it is
hard coded.
- The ArchSpec can now be initialized with a llvm::Triple or with a C string
that represents the triple (it can just be an arch still like "i386").
- The ArchSpec can still initialize itself with a architecture type -- mach-o
with cpu type and subtype, or ELF with e_machine + e_flags -- and this will
then get translated into the internal llvm::Triple::ArchSpec + ArchSpec::Core.
The mach-o cpu type and subtype can be accessed using the getter functions:
uint32_t
ArchSpec::GetMachOCPUType () const;
uint32_t
ArchSpec::GetMachOCPUSubType () const;
But these functions are just converting out internal llvm::Triple::ArchSpec
+ ArchSpec::Core back into mach-o. Same goes for ELF.
All code has been updated to deal with the changes.
This should abstract us until later when the llvm::TargetSpec stuff gets
finalized and we can then adopt it.
llvm-svn: 126278
now, in addition to cpu type/subtype and architecture flavor, contains:
- byte order (big endian, little endian)
- address size in bytes
- llvm::Triple for true target triple support and for more powerful plug-in
selection.

where the implementation is hidden in the host layer. This avoids
a slew of "#if LLDB_CONFIG_TERMIOS_SUPPORTED" statements in the
code and keeps things cleaner.
llvm-svn: 125057
#include "lldb/Host/Config.h"
Or the LLDB_CONFIG_TERMIOS_SUPPORTED defined won't be set. I will fix all
of this Termios stuff later today by moving lldb/Core/TTYState.* into the
host layer and then we conditionalize all of this inside TTYState.cpp and
then we get rid of LLDB_CONFIG_TERMIOS_SUPPORTED all together.
Typically, when we start to see too many "#if LLDB_CONFIG_XXXX" preprocessor
directives, this is a good indicator that something needs to be moved over to
the host layer. TTYState can be modified to do all of the things that many
areas of the code are currently doing, and it will avoid all of the
preprocessor noise.

Fixed problem where Debugger::Terminate was clearing the debugger list
even when the global ref count was greater than zero.

exist within the same process (one script interpreter object per debugger object). The
python script interpreter objects are all using the same global Python script interpreter;
they use separate dictionaries to keep their data separate, and mutex's to prevent any object
attempting to use the global Python interpreter when another object is already using it.
llvm-svn: 123415
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.

a Debugger object is destroyed or re-set. (Thus making sure that, for
example, the Python interpreter finishes and exits cleanly rather than
being left in an undefined state.)

do. Closing on EOF is an option that can be set on the
lldb_private::Communication or the lldb::SBCommunication objects after they
are created. Of course the EOF support isn't hooked up, so they don't do
anything at the moment, but they are left in so when the code is fixed, it
will be easy to get working again.
llvm-svn: 120885
was done as an settings variable in the process for now. We will eventually
move all environment stuff over to the target, but we will leave it with the
process for now. The default setting is for a process to inherit the host
environment. This can be disabled by setting the "inherit-env" setting to
false in the process.
llvm-svn: 120862
Add bool member to Communication class indicating whether the
Connection should be closed on receiving an EOF or not. Update the
Connection read to return an EOF status when appropriate. Modify the
Communication class to pass the EOF along or not, and to close the
Connection or not, as appropriate.
llvm-svn: 120723
changing it to use it. There was an extra parameter added to the static
accessor global user settings controllers that wasn't needed. A bool was being
used as a parameter to the accessor just so it could be used to clean up
the global user settings controller which is now fixed by splitting up the
initialization into the "static void Class::Initialize()", access into the
"static UserSettingsControllerSP & Class::GetSettingsController()", and
cleanup into "static void Class::Terminate()".
Also added initialize and terminate calls to the logging code to avoid issues
when LLDB is shutting down. There were cases after the logging was switched
over to use shared pointers where we could crash if the global destructor
chain was being run and it causes the log to be destroyed and any any logging
occurred.
llvm-svn: 119757
ReadThread stuff into the main Process class (out of the Process Plugins).
This has the (intended) side effect of disabling the command line tool
from reading input/commands while the process is running (the input is
directed to the running process rather than to the command interpreter).
llvm-svn: 119329
instance:
settings set frame-format <string>
settings set thread-format <string>
This allows users to control the information that is seen when dumping
threads and frames. The default values are set such that they do what they
used to do prior to changing over the the user defined formats.
This allows users with terminals that can display color to make different
items different colors using the escape control codes. A few alias examples
that will colorize your thread and frame prompts are:
settings set frame-format 'frame #${frame.index}: \033[0;33m${frame.pc}\033[0m{ \033[1;4;36m${module.file.basename}\033[0;36m ${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}\033[0m}{ \033[0;35mat \033[1;35m${line.file.basename}:${line.number}}\033[0m\n'
settings set thread-format 'thread #${thread.index}: \033[1;33mtid\033[0;33m = ${thread.id}\033[0m{, \033[0;33m${frame.pc}\033[0m}{ \033[1;4;36m${module.file.basename}\033[0;36m ${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}\033[0m}{, \033[1;35mstop reason\033[0;35m = ${thread.stop-reason}\033[0m}{, \033[1;36mname = \033[0;36m${thread.name}\033[0m}{, \033[1;32mqueue = \033[0;32m${thread.queue}}\033[0m\n'
A quick web search for "colorize terminal output" should allow you to see what
you can do to make your output look like you want it.
The "settings set" commands above can of course be added to your ~/.lldbinit
file for permanent use.
Changed the pure virtual
void ExecutionContextScope::Calculate (ExecutionContext&);
To:
void ExecutionContextScope::CalculateExecutionContext (ExecutionContext&);
I did this because this is a class that anything in the execution context
heirarchy inherits from and "target->Calculate (exe_ctx)" didn't always tell
you what it was really trying to do unless you look at the parameter.

Added the start of Host specific launch services, though it currently isn't
hookup up to anything. We want to be able to launch a process and use the
native launch services to launch an app like it would be launched by the
user double clicking on the app. We also eventually want to be able to run
a command line app in a newly spawned terminal to avoid terminal sharing.

replacing the "(lldb)" prompt, the "frame #1..." displays when doing
stack backtracing and the "thread #1....". This will allow you to see
exactly the information that you want to see where you want to see it.
This currently isn't hookup up to the prompts yet, but it will be soon.
So what is the format of the prompts? Prompts can contain variables that
have access to the current program state. Variables are text that appears
in between a prefix of "${" and ends with a "}". Some of the interesting
variables include:
// The frame index (0, 1, 2, 3...)
${frame.index}
// common frame registers with generic names
${frame.pc}
${frame.sp}
${frame.fp}
${frame.ra}
${frame.flags}
// Access to any frame registers by name where REGNAME is any register name:
${frame.reg.REGNAME}
// The current compile unit file where the frame is located
${file.basename}
${file.fullpath}
// Function information
${function.name}
${function.pc-offset}
// Process info
${process.file.basename}
${process.file.fullpath}
${process.id}
${process.name}
// Thread info
${thread.id}
${thread.index}
${thread.name}
${thread.queue}
${thread.stop-reason}
// Target information
${target.arch}
// The current module for the current frame (the shared library or executable
// that contains the current frame PC value):
${module.file.basename}
${module.file.fullpath}
// Access to the line entry for where the current frame is when your thread
// is stopped:
${line.file.basename}
${line.file.fullpath}
${line.number}
${line.start-addr}
${line.end-addr}
Many times the information that you might have in your prompt might not be
available and you won't want it to print out if it isn't valid. To take care
of this you can enclose everything that must resolve into a scope. A scope
is starts with '{' and ends with '}'. For example in order to only display
the current file and line number when the information is available the format
would be:
"{ at {$line.file.basename}:${line.number}}"
Broken down this is:
start the scope: "{"
format whose content will only be displayed if all information is available:
"at {$line.file.basename}:${line.number}"
end the scope: "}"
We currently can represent the infomration we see when stopped at a frame:
frame #0: 0x0000000100000e85 a.out`main + 4 at test.c:19
with the following format:
"frame #${frame.index}: ${frame.pc} {${module.file.basename}`}{${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}{ at ${line.file.basename}:${line.number}}\n"
This breaks down to always print:
"frame #${frame.index}: ${frame.pc} "
only print the module followed by a tick if we have a valid module:
"{${module.file.basename}`}"
print the function name with optional offset:
"{${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}"
print the line info if it is available:
"{ at ${line.file.basename}:${line.number}}"
then finish off with a newline:
"\n"
Notice you can also put newlines ("\n") and tabs and everything else you
are used to putting in a format string when desensitized with the \ character.
Cleaned up some of the user settings controller subclasses. All of them
do not have any global settings variables and were all implementing stubs
for the get/set global settings variable. Now there is a default version

accessed by the objects that own the settings. The previous approach wasn't
very usable and made for a lot of unnecessary code just to access variables
that were already owned by the objects.
While I fixed those things, I saw that CommandObject objects should really
have a reference to their command interpreter so they can access the terminal
with if they want to output usaage. Fixed up all CommandObjects to take
an interpreter and cleaned up the API to not need the interpreter to be
passed in.
Fixed the disassemble command to output the usage if no options are passed
down and arguments are passed (all disassebmle variants take options, there
