We have llvm-readobj for dumping CodeView from object files, and
llvm-pdbutil has always been more focused on PDB. However,
llvm-pdbutil has a lot of useful options for summarizing debug
information in aggregate and presenting high level statistical
views. Furthermore, it's arguably better as a testing tool since
we don't have to write tests to conform to a state-machine like
structure where you match multiple lines in succession, each
depending on a previous match. llvm-pdbutil dumps much more
concisely, so it's possible to use single-line matches in many
cases where as with readobj tests you have to use multi-line
matches with an implicit state machine.
Because of this, I'm adding object file support to llvm-pdbutil.
In fact, this mirrors the cvdump tool from Microsoft, which also
supports both object files and pdb files. In the future we could
perhaps rename this tool llvm-cvutil.
In the meantime, this allows us to deep dive into object files
the same way we already can with PDB files.

Recently problems have been discovered in the way we write the FPM
(free page map). In order to fix this, we first need to establish
a baseline about what a correct FPM looks like using an MSVC
generated PDB, so that we can then make our own generated PDBs
match. And in order to do this, the dumper needs a mode where it
can dump an FPM so that we can write tests for it.
This patch adds a command to dump the FPM, as well as a test against
a known-good PDB.

This patch dumps the raw bytes of the pdb name map which contains
the mapping of stream name to stream index for the string table
and other reserved streams.

The goal here is to make it possible to display absolute
file offsets when dumping byets from an MSF. The problem is
that when dumping bytes from an MSF, often the bytes will
cross a block boundary and encounter a discontinuity. We
can't use the normal formatBinary() function for this because
this would just treat the sequence as entirely ascending, and
not account out-of-order blocks.
This patch adds a formatMsfData() function to our printer, and
then uses this function to improve the output of the -stream-data
command line option for dumping bytes from a particular stream.
Test coverage is also expanded to make sure to include all possible
scenarios of offsets, sizes, and crossing block boundaries.
llvm-svn: 306141
This idea originally came about when I was doing some deep
investigation of why certain bytes in a PDB that we round-tripped
differed from their original bytes in the source PDB. I found
myself having to hack up the code in many places to dump the
bytes of this substream, or that record. It would be nice if
we could just do this for every possible stream, substream,
debug chunk type, etc.
It doesn't make sense to put this under dump because there's just
so many options that would detract from the more common use case
of just dumping deserialized records. So making a new subcommand
seems like the most logical course of action. In doing so, we
already have two command line options that are suitable for this
new subcommand, so start out by moving them there.

This resubmits commit c0c249e9f2ef83e1d1e5f166b50673d92f3579d7.
It was broken due to some weird template issues, which have
since been fixed.
llvm-svn: 305517
This reverts commit 83ea17ebf2106859a51fbc2a86031b44d33696ad.
This is failing due to some strange template problems, so reverting
until it can be straightened out.

After some internal discussions, we agreed that the raw output style had
outlived its usefulness. It was originally created before we had even
thought of dumping to YAML, and it was intended to give us some insight
into the internals of a PDB file. Now we have YAML mode which does
almost exactly this but is more powerful in that it can round-trip back
to a PDB, which the raw mode could not do. So the raw mode had become
purely a maintenance burden.
One option was to just delete it. However, its original goal was to be
as readable as possible while staying close to the "metal" - i.e.
presenting the output in a way that maps directly to the underlying file
format. We don't actually need that last requirement anymore since it's
covered by the yaml mode, so we could repurpose "raw" mode to actually
just be as readable as possible.
This patch implements about 80% of the functionality previously in raw
mode, but in a completely different style that is more akin to what
cvdump outputs. Records are very compressed, often times appearing on
just one line. One nice thing about this is that it makes full record
matching easier, because you can grep for indices, names, and leaf types
on a single line often.
See the tests for some examples of what the new output looks like.
Note that this patch actually regresses the functionality of raw mode in
a few areas, but only because the patch was already unreasonably large
and going 100% would have been even worse. Specifically, this patch is
missing:
The ability to dump module debug subsections (checksums, lines, etc)
The ability to dump section headers
Aside from that everything is here. While goign through the tests fixing
them all up, I found many duplicate tests. They've been deleted. In
subsequent patches I will go through and re-add the missing
functionality.

This is to reflect the evolving nature of the tool as being
useful for more than just dumping PDBs, as it can do many other
things.
