should be MasterPlans that want to stay on the plan stack. So make all plans NOT
MasterPlans by default and then have the SB API's and the CommandObjectThread step
commands set this explicitly.
Also added a "clean up" phase to the Thread::ShouldStop so that if plans get stranded
on the stack, we can remove them. This is done by adding an IsPlanStale method to the
thread plans, and if the plan can know that it is no longer relevant, it returns true,
and the plan and its sub-plans will get discarded.

Also test for the process to be stopped when many SBValue API calls are made to make sure it is safe to evaluate values, children of values and much more.

This abstracts read/write locks on the current host system. It is currently backed by pthread_rwlock_t objects so it should work on all unix systems.
We also need a way to control multi-threaded access to the process through the public API when it is running. For example it isn't a good idea to try and get stack frames while the process is running. To implement this, the lldb_private::Process class now contains a ReadWriteLock member variable named m_run_lock which is used to control the public process state. The public process state represents the state of the process as the client knows it. The private is used to control the actual current process state. So the public state of the process can be stopped, yet the private state can be running when evaluating an expression for example.
Adding the read/write lock where readers are clients that want the process to stay stopped, and writers are clients that run the process, allows us to accurately control multi-threaded access to the process.
Switched the SBThread and SBFrame over to us shared pointers to the ExecutionContextRef class instead of making their own class to track this. This fixed an issue with assigning on SBFrame to another and will also centralize the code that tracks weak references to execution context objects into one location.
llvm-svn: 154099
I started work on being able to add symbol files after a debug session
had started with a new "target symfile add" command and quickly ran into
problems with stale Address objects in breakpoint locations that had
lldb_private::Section pointers into modules that had been removed or
replaced. This also let to grabbing stale modules from those sections.
So I needed to thread harded the Address, Section and related objects.
To do this I modified the ModuleChild class to now require a ModuleSP
on initialization so that a weak reference can created. I also changed
all places that were handing out "Section *" to have them hand out SectionSP.
All ObjectFile, SymbolFile and SymbolVendors were inheriting from ModuleChild
so all of the find plug-in, static creation function and constructors now
require ModuleSP references instead of Module *.
Address objects now have weak references to their sections which can
safely go stale when a module gets destructed.
This checkin doesn't complete the "target symfile add" command, but it
does get us a lot clioser to being able to do such things without a high
risk of crashing or memory corruption.
llvm-svn: 151336
objects for the backlink to the lldb_private::Process. The issues we were
running into before was someone was holding onto a shared pointer to a
lldb_private::Thread for too long, and the lldb_private::Process parent object
would get destroyed and the lldb_private::Thread had a "Process &m_process"
member which would just treat whatever memory that used to be a Process as a
valid Process. This was mostly happening for lldb_private::StackFrame objects
that had a member like "Thread &m_thread". So this completes the internal
strong/weak changes.
Documented the ExecutionContext and ExecutionContextRef classes so that our
LLDB developers can understand when and where to use ExecutionContext and
ExecutionContextRef objects.
llvm-svn: 151009
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.
llvm-svn: 149231
all RTTI types, and since we don't use RTTI anymore since clang and llvm don't
we don't really need this header file. All shared pointer definitions have
been moved into "lldb-forward.h".
Defined std::tr1::weak_ptr definitions for all of the types that inherit from
enable_shared_from_this() in "lldb-forward.h" in preparation for thread
hardening our public API.
The first in the thread hardening check-ins. First we start with SBThread.
We have issues in our lldb::SB API right now where if you have one object
that is being used by two threads we have a race condition. Consider the
following code:
1 int
2 SBThread::SomeFunction()
3 {
4 int result = -1;
5 if (m_opaque_sp)
6 {
7 result = m_opaque_sp->DoSomething();
8 }
9 return result;
10 }
And now this happens:
Thread 1 enters any SBThread function and checks its m_opaque_sp and is about
to execute the code on line 7 but hasn't yet
Thread 2 gets to run and class sb_thread.Clear() which calls m_opaque_sp.clear()
and clears the contents of the shared pointer member
Thread 1 now crashes when it resumes.
The solution is to use std::tr1::weak_ptr. Now the SBThread class contains a
lldb::ThreadWP (weak pointer to our lldb_private::Thread class) and this
function would look like:
1 int
2 SBThread::SomeFunction()
3 {
4 int result = -1;
5 ThreadSP thread_sp(m_opaque_wp.lock());
6 if (thread_sp)
7 {
8 result = m_opaque_sp->DoSomething();
9 }
10 return result;
11 }
Now we have a solid thread safe API where we get a local copy of our thread
shared pointer from our weak_ptr and then we are guaranteed it can't go away
during our function.
So lldb::SBThread has been thread hardened, more checkins to follow shortly.
llvm-svn: 149218
as part of the thread format output.
Currently this is only done for the ThreadPlanStepOut.
Add a convenience API ABI::GetReturnValueObject.
Change the ValueObject::EvaluationPoint to BE an ExecutionContextScope, rather than
trying to hand out one of its subsidiary object's pointers. That way this will always
be good.
llvm-svn: 146806
will allow us to represent a process/thread ID using a pointer for the OS
plug-ins where they might want to represent the process or thread ID using
the address of the process or thread structure.
llvm-svn: 145644
Fixed an issues with the SBType and SBTypeMember classes:
- Fixed SBType to be able to dump itself from python
- Fixed SBType::GetNumberOfFields() to return the correct value for objective C interfaces
- Fixed SBTypeMember to be able to dump itself from python
- Fixed the SBTypeMember ability to get a field offset in bytes (the value
being returned was wrong)
- Added the SBTypeMember ability to get a field offset in bits
Cleaned up a lot of the Stream usage in the SB API files.
llvm-svn: 144493
lldb_private::Error objects the rules are:
- short strings that don't start with a capitol letter unless the name is a
class or anything else that is always capitolized
- no trailing newline character
- should be one line if possible
Implemented a first pass at adding "--gdb-format" support to anything that
accepts format with optional size/count.
llvm-svn: 142999
process IDs, and thread IDs, but was mainly needed for for the UserID's for
Types so that DWARF with debug map can work flawlessly. With DWARF in .o files
the type ID was the DIE offset in the DWARF for the .o file which is not
unique across all .o files, so now the SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap class will
make the .o file index part (the high 32 bits) of the unique type identifier
so it can uniquely identify the types.
llvm-svn: 142534
stdarg formats to use __attribute__ format so the compiler can flag
incorrect uses. Fix all incorrect uses. Most of these are innocuous,
a few were resulting in crashes.
llvm-svn: 140185
used to do this because we needed to find the shared pointer for a .o
file when the .o file's module was needed in a SymbolContext since the
module in a symbol context was a shared pointer. Now that we are using
intrusive pointers we don't have this limitation anymore since any
instrusive shared pointer can be made from a pointer to an object
all on its own.
Also switched over to having the Module and SymbolVendor use shared
pointers to their object files as had a leak on MacOSX when the
SymbolVendor's object file wasn't the same as the Module's (debug info
in a stand along file (dSYM file)). Now everything will correctly clean
itself up when the module goes away after an executable gets rebuilt.
Now we correctly get rid of .o files that are used with the DWARF with
debug map executables on subsequent runs since the only shared pointer
to the object files in from the DWARF symbol file debug map parser, and
when the module gets replaced, it destroys to old one along with all .o
files.
Also added a small optimization when using BSD archives where we will
remove old BSD containers from the shared list when they are outdated.
llvm-svn: 140002
Set the default Source File & line to main (if it can be found.) at startup. Selecting the current thread & or frame resets
the current source file & line, and "source list" as well as the breakpoint command "break set -l <NUM>" will use the
current source file.
llvm-svn: 139323
select frame #3, you can then do a step out and be able to go directly to the
frame above frame #3!
Added StepOverUntil and StepOutOfFrame to the SBThread API to allow more powerful
stepping.
llvm-svn: 123970
line commands can use the current thread/frame.
Fixed an issue with expressions that get sandboxed in an objective C method
where unichar wasn't being passed down.
Added a "static size_t Scalar::GetMaxByteSize();" function in case we need
to know the max supported by size of something within a Scalar object.
llvm-svn: 122027
by being able to get the data count and data. Each thread stop reason
has one or more data words that can help describe the stop. To do this
I added:

SBThread::GetStopReasonDataCount();
uint64_t
SBThread::GetStopReasonDataAtIndex(uint32_t idx);
llvm-svn: 119720
don't crash if we disable logging when some code already has a copy of the
logger. Prior to this fix, logs were handed out as pointers and if they were
held onto while a log got disabled, then it could cause a crash. Now all logs
are handed out as shared pointers so this problem shouldn't happen anymore.
We are also using our new shared pointers that put the shared pointer count
and the object into the same allocation for a tad better performance.
llvm-svn: 118319
than just the entire log channel.
Add checks, where appropriate, to make sure a log channel/category has
not been disabled before attempting to write to it.
llvm-svn: 117715
by type ID (the most common type of type lookup).
Changed the API logging a bit to always show the objects in the OBJECT(POINTER)
format so it will be easy to locate all instances of an object or references
to it when looking at logs.
llvm-svn: 117641
- Try to reduce logging to one line per function call instead of tw
- Put all arguments & their values into log for calls
- Add 'this' parameter information to function call logging, making it show the appropriate
internal pointer (this.obj, this.sp, this.ap...)
- Clean up some return values
- Remove logging of constructors that construct empty objects
- Change '==>' to '=>' for showing result values...
- Fix various minor bugs
- Add some protected 'get' functions to help getting the internal pointers for the 'this' arguments...
llvm-svn: 117417
it logs the function calls, their arguments and the return values. This is not
complete or polished, but I am committing it now, at the request of someone who
really wants to use it, even though it's not really done. It currently does not
attempt to log all the functions, just the most important ones. I will be
making further adjustments to the API logging code over the next few days/weeks.
(Suggestions for improvements are welcome).
Update the Python build scripts to re-build the swig C++ file whenever
the python-extensions.swig file is modified.
Correct the help for 'log enable' command (give it the correct number & type of
arguments).
llvm-svn: 117349
tricks to get types to resolve. I did this by correctly including the correct
files: stdint.h and all lldb-*.h files first before including the API files.
This allowed me to remove all of the hacks that were in the lldb.swig file
and it also allows all of the #defines in lldb-defines.h and enumerations
in lldb-enumerations.h to appear in the lldb.py module. This will make the
python script code a lot more readable.
Cleaned up the "process launch" command to not execute a "process continue"
command, it now just does what it should have with the internal API calls
instead of executing another command line command.
Made the lldb_private::Process set the state to launching and attaching if
WillLaunch/WillAttach return no error respectively.
llvm-svn: 115902
use the python API that is exposed through SWIG to do some cool stuff.
Also fixed synchronous debugging so that all process control APIs exposed
through the python API will now wait for the process to stop if you set
the async mode to false (see disasm.py).
llvm-svn: 115738
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.
llvm-svn: 115485
into python-extensions.swig, which gets included into lldb.swig, and
adds them back into the classes when swig generates it's C++ file. This
keeps the Python stuff out of the general API classes.
Also fixed a small bug in the copy constructor for SBSymbolContext.
llvm-svn: 114602
might dump file paths that allows the dumping of full paths or just the
basenames. Switched the stack frame dumping code to use just the basenames for
the files instead of the full path.
Modified the StackID class to no rely on needing the start PC for the current
function/symbol since we can use the SymbolContextScope to uniquely identify
that, unless there is no symbol context scope. In that case we can rely upon
the current PC value. This saves the StackID from having to calculate the
start PC when the StackFrame::GetStackID() accessor is called.
Also improved the StackID less than operator to correctly handle inlined stack
frames in the same stack.
llvm-svn: 112867
which is now on by default. Frames are gotten from the unwinder as concrete
frames, then if inline frames are to be shown, extra information to track
and reconstruct these frames is cached with each Thread and exanded as needed.
I added an inline height as part of the lldb_private::StackID class, the class
that helps us uniquely identify stack frames. This allows for two frames to
shared the same call frame address, yet differ only in inline height.
Fixed setting breakpoint by address to not require addresses to resolve.

This will allow debugger plug-ins to make any instance of "lldb_private::StopInfo"
that can completely describe any stop reason. It also provides a framework for
doing intelligent things with the stop info at important times in the lifetime
of the inferior.
Examples include the signal stop info in StopInfoUnixSignal. It will check with
the process to see that the current action is for the signal. These actions
include wether to stop for the signal, wether the notify that the signal was
hit, and wether to pass the signal along to the inferior process. The
StopInfoUnixSignal class overrides the "ShouldStop()" method of StopInfo and
this allows the stop info to determine if it should stop at the signal or
continue the process.
StopInfo subclasses must override the following functions:
virtual lldb::StopReason
GetStopReason () const = 0;
virtual const char *
GetDescription () = 0;
StopInfo subclasses can override the following functions:
// If the subclass returns "false", the inferior will resume. The default
// version of this function returns "true" which means the default stop
// info will stop the process. The breakpoint subclass will check if
// the breakpoint wants us to stop by calling any installed callback on
// the breakpoint, and also checking if the breakpoint is for the current
// thread. Signals will check if they should stop based off of the
// UnixSignal settings in the process.
virtual bool
ShouldStop (Event *event_ptr);
// Sublasses can state if they want to notify the debugger when "ShouldStop"
// returns false. This would be handy for breakpoints where you want to
// log information and continue and is also used by the signal stop info
// to notify that a signal was received (after it checks with the process
// signal settings).
virtual bool
ShouldNotify (Event *event_ptr)
{
return false;
}
// Allow subclasses to do something intelligent right before we resume.
// The signal class will figure out if the signal should be propagated
// to the inferior process and pass that along to the debugger plug-ins.
virtual void
WillResume (lldb::StateType resume_state)
{
// By default, don't do anything
}

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.

without having to use RTTI.
Removed the ThreadPlanContinue and replaced with a ShouldAutoContinue query that serves the same purpose. Having to push
another plan to assert that if there's no other indication the target should continue when this plan is popped was flakey
and error prone. This method is more stable, and fixed problems we were having with thread specific breakpoints.
