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.
llvm-svn: 127430
an interface to a local or remote debugging platform. By default each host OS
that supports LLDB should be registering a "default" platform that will be
used unless a new platform is selected. Platforms are responsible for things
such as:
- getting process information by name or by processs ID
- finding platform files. This is useful for remote debugging where there is
an SDK with files that might already or need to be cached for debug access.
- getting a list of platform supported architectures in the exact order they
should be selected. This helps the native x86 platform on MacOSX select the
correct x86_64/i386 slice from universal binaries.
- Connect to remote platforms for remote debugging
- Resolving an executable including finding an executable inside platform
specific bundles (macosx uses .app bundles that contain files) and also
selecting the appropriate slice of universal files for a given platform.
So by default there is always a local platform, but remote platforms can be
connected to. I will soon be adding a new "platform" command that will support
the following commands:
(lldb) platform connect --name machine1 macosx connect://host:port
Connected to "machine1" platform.
(lldb) platform disconnect macosx
This allows LLDB to be well setup to do remote debugging and also once
connected process listing and finding for things like:
(lldb) process attach --name x<TAB>
The currently selected platform plug-in can now auto complete any available
processes that start with "x". The responsibilities for the platform plug-in
will soon grow and expand.

Modifed lldb_private::Process to be able to handle connecting to a remote
target that isn't running a process. This leaves lldb_private::Process in the
eStateConnected state from which we can then do an attach or launch.
Modified ProcessGDBRemote to be able to set stdin, stdout, stderr, working
dir, disable ASLR and a few other settings down by using new GDB remote
packets. This allows us to keep all of our current launch flags and settings
intact and still be able to communicate them over to the remote GDB server.
Previously these were being sent as arguments to the debugserver binary that
we were spawning. Also modified ProcessGDBRemote to handle losing connection
to the remote GDB server and always exit immediately. We do this by watching
the lldb_private::Communication event bit for the read thread exiting in the
ProcessGDBRemote async thread.
Added support for many of the new 'Q' packets for setting stdin, stdout,
stderr, working dir and disable ASLR to the GDBRemoteCommunication class for
easy accesss.
Modified debugserver for all of the new 'Q' packets and also made it so that
debugserver always exists if it loses connection with the remote debugger.
llvm-svn: 126444
The major issue this patch solves is that ArchSpec::SetTriple no longer depends
on the implementation of Host::GetArchitecture. On linux, Host::GetArchitecture
calls ArchSpec::SetTriple, thus blowing the stack.
A second smaller point is that SetTriple now defaults to Host defined components
iff all OS, vendor and environment fields are not set.
llvm-svn: 126403
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
N streams by making the stream a vector of stream shared pointers
that is protected by a mutex. Streams can be get/set by index which
allows indexes to be defined as stream indentifiers. If a stream is
set at index 3 and there are now streams in the collection, then
empty stream objects are inserted to ensure that stream at index 3
has a valid stream. There is also an append method that allows a stream
to be pushed onto the stack. This will allow our streams to be very
flexible in where the output goes.
Modified the CommandReturnObject to use the new StreamTee functionality.
This class now defines two StreamTee indexes: 0 for the stream string
stream, and 1 for the immediate stream. This is used both on the output
and error streams.
Added the ability to get argument types as strings or as descriptions.
This is exported through the SBCommandInterpreter API to allow external
access.
Modified the Driver class to use the newly exported argument names from
SBCommandInterpreter::GetArgumentTypeAsCString().
llvm-svn: 126067
a Stream, and then added GetOutputData & GetErrorData to get the accumulated data.
- Added a StreamTee that will tee output to two provided lldb::StreamSP's.
- Made the CommandObjectReturn use this so you can Tee the results immediately to
the debuggers output file, as well as saving up the results to return when the command
is done executing.
- HandleCommands now uses this so that if you have a set of commands that continue the target
you will see the commands come out as they are processed.
- The Driver now uses this to output the command results as you go, which makes the interface
more reactive seeming.
llvm-svn: 126015
Targets can now specify some additional parameters for when we debug
executables that can help with plug-in selection:
target.execution-level = auto | user | kernel
target.execution-mode = auto | dynamic | static
target.execution-os-type = auto | none | halted | live
On some systems, the binaries that are created are the same wether you use
them to debug a kernel, or a user space program. Many times inspecting an
object file can reveal what an executable should be. For these cases we can
now be a little more complete by specifying wether to detect all of these
things automatically (inspect the main executable file and select a plug-in
accordingly), or manually to force the selection of certain plug-ins.
To do this we now allow the specficifation of wether one is debugging a user
space program (target.execution-level = user) or a kernel program
(target.execution-level = kernel).
We can also specify if we want to debug a program where shared libraries
are dynamically loaded using a DynamicLoader plug-in
(target.execution-mode = dynamic), or wether we will treat all symbol files
as already linked at the correct address (target.execution-mode = static).
We can also specify if the inferior we are debugging is being debugged on
a bare board (target.execution-os-type = none), or debugging an OS where
we have a JTAG or other direct connection to the inferior stops the entire
OS (target.execution-os-type = halted), or if we are debugging a program on
something that has live debug services (target.execution-os-type = live).
For the "target.execution-os-type = halted" mode, we will need to create
ProcessHelper plug-ins that allow us to extract the process/thread and other
OS information by reading/writing memory.
This should allow LLDB to be used for a wide variety of debugging tasks and
handle them all correctly.

it should live and the lldb_private::Process takes care of managing the
auto pointer to the dynamic loader instance.
Also, now that the ArchSpec contains the target triple, we are able to
correctly set the Target architecture in DidLaunch/DidAttach in the subclasses,
and then the lldb_private::Process will find the dynamic loader plug-in
by letting the dynamic loader plug-ins inspect the arch/triple in the target.
So now the ProcessGDBRemote plug-in is another step closer to be purely
process/platform agnostic.
I updated the ProcessMacOSX and the ProcessLinux plug-ins accordingly.
llvm-svn: 125650
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.

ArchDefaultUnwindPlan plug-in interfaces are now cached per architecture
instead of being leaked for every frame.
Split the ArchDefaultUnwindPlan_x86 into ArchDefaultUnwindPlan_x86_64 and
ArchDefaultUnwindPlan_i386 interfaces.
There were sporadic crashes that were due to something leaking or being
destroyed when doing stack crawls. This patch should clear up these issues.

module's AST context. Prior to this fix, with gcc binaries, we end up with
a full class definition for any used classes in each compile unit due to the
one definition rule. This would result in us making N copies of class T, where
N is the number of compile units that use class T, in the module AST. When
an expression would then try and use any types that were duplicated, it would
quickly confuse clang and make expression evaluation fail due to all of the
duplicate types that got copied over. This is now fixed by making a map of
types in the DWARF that maps type names to a collection of types + declaration
(file + line number) + DIE. Then later when we find a type we look in this
module map and find any already cached types that we can just use.

the lldb/source/Host/*.cpp and lldb/source/Host/*/*.cpp directories. The only

I will soon modify StreamFile.cpp to use a lldb/source/Host/File.cpp so that
all file open, close, read, write, seek, are abstracted into the host layer

flags such that symbols can be searched for within a shared library if desired.
Platforms that support the RTLD_FIRST flag can still take advantage of their
quicker lookups, and other platforms can still get the same fucntionality
with a little extra work.
Also changed LLDB_CONFIG flags over to either being defined, or not being
defined to stay in line with current open source practices and to prepare for

llvm-svn: 125064
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.
llvm-svn: 125027
Internal use means for compiling the LLDB debug engine and plug-ins, but it
should never make it into the public API.
Since we don't currently have a configuration script that detects avaiable
functionality in the LLDB build system, we are hard coding #define values
in the host specific "Config.h" files.
#define values in these Config.h header files should set the value to zero or
one:
#define LLDB_CONFIG_TERMIOS_SUPPORTED 1
#define LLDB_CONFIG_OTHER 0
Then any code in the LLDB engine should check the availability using:
#if LLDB_CONFIG_TERMIOS_SUPPORTED
....
#endif
Eventually the contents of the host specific Config.h files will be auto
generated, but for now they will be hard coded. Any LLDB_CONFIG_XXXX items
that are added should be added to all Config.h files and set to either zero
or one.

One (stepout.patch) to fix a problem in ThreadPlanStepOut.cpp. There is an erroneous semi colon at end of an if statement that make the condition useless (if body is empty).

llvm-svn: 124874
(lldb) process connect <remote-url>
Currently when you specify a file with the file command it helps us to find
a process plug-in that is suitable for debugging. If you specify a file you
can rely upon this to find the correct debugger plug-in:
% lldb a.out
Current executable set to 'a.out' (x86_64).
(lldb) process connect connect://localhost:2345
...
If you don't specify a file, you will need to specify the plug-in name that
you wish to use:
% lldb
(lldb) process connect --plugin process.gdb-remote connect://localhost:2345
Other connection URL examples:
(lldb) process connect connect://localhost:2345
(lldb) process connect tcp://127.0.0.1
(lldb) process connect file:///dev/ttyS1
We are currently treating the "connect://host:port" as a way to do raw socket
connections. If there is a URL for this already, please let me know and we
will adopt it.
So now you can connect to a remote debug server with the ProcessGDBRemote
plug-in. After connection, it will ask for the pid info using the "qC" packet
and if it responds with a valid process ID, it will be equivalent to attaching.
If it response with an error or invalid process ID, the LLDB process will be
in a new state: eStateConnected. This allows us to then download a program or
specify the program to run (using the 'A' packet), or specify a process to
attach to (using the "vAttach" packets), or query info about the processes
that might be available.
llvm-svn: 124846
condition that could occur when launching or attaching. What could happen is
you would launch/attach to a process, then you would need to tell a listener
to watch for process state changed events. In this case, if you waited too
long to listen for events, you could miss the initial stop event, requiring
clients to listen, then check the process state.
llvm-svn: 124818
LLDB plugin directory and a user LLDB plugin directory. We currently still
need to work out at what layer the plug-ins will be, but at least we are
prepared for plug-ins. Plug-ins will attempt to be loaded from the
"/Developer/Library/PrivateFrameworks/LLDB.framework/Resources/Plugins"
folder, and from the "~/Library/Application Support/LLDB/Plugins" folder on
MacOSX. Each plugin will be scanned for:
extern "C" bool LLDBPluginInitialize(void);
extern "C" void LLDBPluginTerminate(void);
If at least LLDBPluginInitialize is found, the plug-in will be loaded. The
LLDBPluginInitialize function returns a bool that indicates if the plug-in
should stay loaded or not (plug-ins might check the current OS, current
hardware, or anything else and determine they don't want to run on the current
host). The plug-in is uniqued by path and added to a static loaded plug-in
map. The plug-in scanning happens during "lldb_private::Initialize()" which
calls to the PluginManager::Initialize() function. Likewise with termination
lldb_private::Terminate() calls PluginManager::Terminate(). The paths for the
plug-in directories is fetched through new Host calls:
bool Host::GetLLDBPath (ePathTypeLLDBSystemPlugins, dir_spec);
bool Host::GetLLDBPath (ePathTypeLLDBUserPlugins, dir_spec);
This way linux and other systems can define their own appropriate locations
for plug-ins to be loaded.
To allow dynamic shared library loading, the Host layer has also been modified
to include shared library open, close and get symbol:
static void *
Host::DynamicLibraryOpen (const FileSpec &file_spec,
Error &error);
static Error
Host::DynamicLibraryClose (void *dynamic_library_handle);
static void *
Host::DynamicLibraryGetSymbol (void *dynamic_library_handle,
const char *symbol_name,
Error &error);
lldb_private::FileSpec also has been modified to support directory enumeration
in an attempt to abstract the directory enumeration into one spot in the code.
The directory enumertion function is static and takes a callback:
typedef enum EnumerateDirectoryResult
{
eEnumerateDirectoryResultNext, // Enumerate next entry in the current directory
eEnumerateDirectoryResultEnter, // Recurse into the current entry if it is a directory or symlink, or next if not
eEnumerateDirectoryResultExit, // Exit from the current directory at the current level.
eEnumerateDirectoryResultQuit // Stop directory enumerations at any level
};
typedef FileSpec::EnumerateDirectoryResult (*EnumerateDirectoryCallbackType) (void *baton,
FileSpec::FileType file_type,
const FileSpec &spec);
static FileSpec::EnumerateDirectoryResult
FileSpec::EnumerateDirectory (const char *dir_path,
bool find_directories,
bool find_files,
bool find_other,
EnumerateDirectoryCallbackType callback,
void *callback_baton);
This allow clients to specify the directory to search, and specifies if only
files, directories or other (pipe, symlink, fifo, etc) files will cause the
callback to be called. The callback also gets to return with the action that
should be performed after this directory entry. eEnumerateDirectoryResultNext
specifies to continue enumerating through a directory with the next entry.
eEnumerateDirectoryResultEnter specifies to recurse down into a directory
entry, or if the file is not a directory or symlink/alias to a directory, then
just iterate to the next entry. eEnumerateDirectoryResultExit specifies to
exit the current directory and skip any entries that might be remaining, yet
continue enumerating to the next entry in the parent directory. And finally
eEnumerateDirectoryResultQuit means to abort all directory enumerations at
all levels.
Modified the Declaration class to not include column information currently
since we don't have any compilers that currently support column based
declaration information. Columns support can be re-enabled with the
additions of a #define.
Added the ability to find an EmulateInstruction plug-in given a target triple
and optional plug-in name in the plug-in manager.
Fixed a few cases where opendir/readdir was being used, but yet not closedir
was being used. Soon these will be deprecated in favor of the new directory
enumeration call that was added to the FileSpec class.

llvm-svn: 124703
sessions: When continue packet has been sent and an interrupt packet was
quickly sent, it would get read at the same time:
$c#00\x03
There was an error where the packet end index was always being computed
incorrectly by debugserver, but it wouldn't matter if there weren't extra
bytes on the end (the hex \x03 interrupt byte in this case). The first
'$' last 3 bytes of the data in the packet buffer were being trimmed
(trying to trim the '#' + checksum (#XX)) which made:
c#
And this would then be passed to the handle routine for the 'c' packet which
would see an extra character at the end and assume it was going to be in the
form c[addr] where "[addr]" was a hex address to resume at and this would
result in a malformed packet response. This is now fixed and everything works
great.
Another issue was issuing async packets correctly by doing correct handshakes
between the thread that wants to send the async packet, and the thread that
is tracking the current run.
Added a write lock to the communication class as well to make sure you never
get two threads trying to write data at the same time. This wasn't happening,
but it is a good idea to make sure it doesn't.
llvm-svn: 124369
lldb_private::Function objects. Previously the SymbolFileSymtab subclass
would return lldb_private::Symbol objects when it was asked to find functions.
The Module::FindFunctions (...) now take a boolean "bool include_symbols" so
that the module can track down functions and symbols, yet functions are found
by the SymbolFile plug-ins (through the SymbolVendor class), and symbols are
gotten through the ObjectFile plug-ins.
Fixed and issue where the DWARF parser might run into incomplete class member
function defintions which would make clang mad when we tried to make certain
member functions with invalid number of parameters (such as an operator=
operator that had no parameters). Now we just avoid and don't complete these
incomplete functions.

takes separate file handles for stdin, stdout, and stder and also allows for
the working directory to be specified.
Added support to "process launch" to a new option: --working-dir=PATH. We
can now set the working directory. If this is not set, it defaults to that
of the process that has LLDB loaded. Added the working directory to the
host LaunchInNewTerminal function to allows the current working directory
to be set in processes that are spawned in their own terminal. Also hooked this
up to the lldb_private::Process and all mac plug-ins. The linux plug-in had its
API changed, but nothing is making use of it yet. Modfied "debugserver" and
"darwin-debug" to also handle the current working directory options and modified
the code in LLDB that spawns these tools to pass the info along.
Fixed ProcessGDBRemote to properly pass along all file handles for stdin, stdout
and stderr.
After clearing the default values for the stdin/out/err file handles for
process to be NULL, we had a crasher in UserSettingsController::UpdateStringVariable
which is now fixed. Also fixed the setting of boolean values to be able to
be set as "true", "yes", "on", "1" for true (case insensitive) and "false", "no",
"off", or "0" for false.
Fixed debugserver to properly handle files for STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR that are not
already opened. Previous to this fix debugserver would only correctly open and dupe
file handles for the slave side of a pseudo terminal. It now correctly handles
getting STDIN for the inferior from a file, and spitting STDOUT and STDERR out to
files. Also made sure the file handles were correctly opened with the NOCTTY flag
for terminals.
llvm-svn: 124060
checking the validity of the shared pointer prior to using it.
Fixed the GDB remote plug-in to once again watch for a reply from the "k"
packet, and fixed the logic to make sure the thread requesting the kill
and the async thread play nice (and very quickly) by synchronizing the
packet sending and reply. I also tweaked some of the shut down packet
("k" kill, "D" detach, and the halt packet) to make sure they do the right
thing.
Fixed "StateType Process::WaitForProcessStopPrivate (...)" to correctly pass
the timeout along to WaitForStateChangedEventsPrivate() and made the function
behave correctly with respect to timing out.
Added separate STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR support to debugserver. Also added
the start of being able to set the working directory for the inferior process.

fragile ivars if requested. This was done by changing the previous second parameter
to an options bitfield that can be populated by logical OR'ing the new
StackFrame::ExpressionPathOption enum values together:
typedef enum ExpressionPathOption
{
eExpressionPathOptionCheckPtrVsMember = (1u << 0),
eExpressionPathOptionsNoFragileObjcIvar = (1u << 1),
};
So the old function was:
lldb::ValueObjectSP
StackFrame::GetValueForVariableExpressionPath (const char *var_expr, bool check_ptr_vs_member, Error &error);
But it is now:
lldb::ValueObjectSP
StackFrame::GetValueForVariableExpressionPath (const char *var_expr, uint32_t options, Error &error);
This allows the expression parser in Target::EvaluateExpression(...) to avoid
using simple frame variable expression paths when evaluating something that might
be a fragile ivar.

llvm-svn: 123889
the way LLDB lazily gets complete definitions for types within the debug info.
When we run across a class/struct/union definition in the DWARF, we will only
parse the full definition if we need to. This works fine for top level types
that are assigned directly to variables and arguments, but when we have a
variable with a class, lets say "A" for this example, that has a member:
"B *m_b". Initially we don't need to hunt down a definition for this class
unless we are ever asked to do something with it ("expr m_b->getDecl()" for
example). With my previous approach to lazy type completion, we would be able
to take a "A *a" and get a complete type for it, but we wouldn't be able to
then do an "a->m_b->getDecl()" unless we always expanded all types within a
class prior to handing out the type. Expanding everything is very costly and
it would be great if there were a better way.
A few months ago I worked with the llvm/clang folks to have the
ExternalASTSource class be able to complete classes if there weren't completed
yet:
class ExternalASTSource {
....
virtual void
CompleteType (clang::TagDecl *Tag);
virtual void
CompleteType (clang::ObjCInterfaceDecl *Class);
};
This was great, because we can now have the class that is producing the AST
(SymbolFileDWARF and SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap) sign up as external AST sources
and the object that creates the forward declaration types can now also
complete them anywhere within the clang type system.
This patch makes a few major changes:
- lldb_private::Module classes now own the AST context. Previously the TypeList
objects did.
- The DWARF parsers now sign up as an external AST sources so they can complete
types.
- All of the pure clang type system wrapper code we have in LLDB (ClangASTContext,
ClangASTType, and more) can now be iterating through children of any type,
and if a class/union/struct type (clang::RecordType or ObjC interface)
is found that is incomplete, we can ask the AST to get the definition.
- The SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap class now will create and use a single AST that
all child SymbolFileDWARF classes will share (much like what happens when
we have a complete linked DWARF for an executable).
We will need to modify some of the ClangUserExpression code to take more
advantage of this completion ability in the near future. Meanwhile we should
be better off now that we can be accessing any children of variables through
pointers and always be able to resolve the clang type if needed.

Debuggers on ELF platforms hook into the runtime linker by monitoring a special
"rendezvous" embedded in the address space of the inferior process. The exact
location of this structure is filled in by the runtime linker and can be
resolved by locating the DT_DEBUG entry in the processes .dynamic section. The
new GetImageInfoAddress() method (morally equivalent to
Process::GetImageInfoAddress) provides the mechanism to locate this information.
GetEntryPoint() simply returns the address of the start symbol in the executable
if present. It is useful to the dynamic loader plugin for ELF systems as this
is the earliest point where LLDB can break and probe the inferiors .dynamic
section and rendezvous structure. Also, this address can be used in the
computation of the virtual base address for position independent executables.

Anytime we had a valid python list that was trying to go from Python down into
our C++ API, it was allocating too little memory and it ended up smashing
whatever was next to the allocated memory.
Added typemap conversions for "void *, size_t" so we can get
SBProcess::ReadMemory() working. Also added a typemap for "const void *, size_t"
so we can get SBProcess::WriteMemory() to work.
Fixed an issue in the DWARF parser where we weren't correctly calculating the
DeclContext for all types and classes. We now should be a lot more accurate.
Fixes include: enums should now be setting their parent decl context correctly.
We saw a lot of examples where enums in classes were not being properly
namespace scoped. Also, classes within classes now get properly scoped.
Fixed the objective C runtime pointer checkers to let "nil" pointers through
since these are accepted by compiled code. We also now don't call "abort()"
when a pointer doesn't validate correctly since this was wreaking havoc on
the process due to the way abort() works. We now just dereference memory
which should give us an exception from which we can easily and reliably
recover.

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.

by LLDB. Instead of being materialized into the input structure
passed to the expression, variables are left in place and pointers
to them are materialzied into the structure. Variables not resident
in memory (notably, registers) get temporary memory regions allocated
for them.
Persistent variables are the most complex part of this, because they
are made in various ways and there are different expectations about
their lifetime. Persistent variables now have flags indicating their
status and what the expectations for longevity are. They can be
marked as residing in target memory permanently -- this is the
default for result variables from expressions entered on the command
line and for explicitly declared persistent variables (but more on
that below). Other result variables have their memory freed.
Some major improvements resulting from this include being able to
properly take the address of variables, better and cleaner support
for functions that return references, and cleaner C++ support in
general. One problem that remains is the problem of explicitly
declared persistent variables; I have not yet implemented the code
that makes references to them into indirect references, so currently
materialization and dematerialization of these variables is broken.

a method:
void RegisterContext::InvalidateIfNeeded (bool force);
Each time this function is called, when "force" is false, it will only call
the pure virtual "virtual void RegisterContext::InvalideAllRegisters()" if
the register context's stop ID doesn't match that of the process. When the
stop ID doesn't match, or "force" is true, the base class will clear its
cached registers and the RegisterContext will update its stop ID to match
that of the process. This helps make it easier to correctly flush the register
context (possibly from multiple locations depending on when and where new
registers are availabe) without inadvertently clearing the register cache
when it doesn't need to be.
Modified the ProcessGDBRemote plug-in to be much more efficient when it comes
to:
- caching the expedited registers in the stop reply packets (we were ignoring
these before and it was causing us to read at least three registers every
time we stopped that were already supplied in the stop reply packet).
- When a thread has no stop reason, don't keep asking for the thread stopped
info. Prior to this fix we would continually send a qThreadStopInfo packet
over and over when any thread stop info was requested. We now note the stop
ID that the stop info was requested for and avoid multiple requests.
Cleaned up some of the expression code to not look for ClangExpressionVariable
objects up by name since they are now shared pointers and we can just look for
the exact pointer match and avoid possible errors.
Fixed an bug in the ValueObject code that would cause children to not be
displayed.
llvm-svn: 123127
was being searched and sorted using a shared pointer as the value which means
the pointer value was what was being searched for. This means that anytime
you did a stack backtrace, the collection of FuncUnwinders doubled and then
the array or shared pointer got sorted (by pointer value), so you had an ever
increasing collection of shared pointer where a match was never found. This
means we had a ton of duplicates in this table and would cause issues after
one had been debugging for a long time.

subclasses will automatically be able to take advantage of caching. The
cache line size is set to 512 by default.
This greatly speeds up stack backtraces on MacOSX when using the
ProcessGDBRemote process plug-in since only about 6300 packets per second
can be sent.
Initial speedups show:
Prior to caching: 10,000 stack frames took 5.2 seconds
After caching: 10,000 stack frames in 240 ms!
About a 20x speedup!

cache even when a valid process exists. Previously, Target::ReadMemory would
read from the process if there was a valid one and then fallback to the
object file cache.
llvm-svn: 122989
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.

table offset where the offset is within a section. Increased the section
offset for line table entries to be 32 bits (from 24 bits), giving each
section a 4G offset, and increased the section index to 32 bits (from 8 bits).

a shell would interpret it. A few examples that we now handle correctly
INPUT: "Hello "world
OUTPUT: "Hello World"
INPUT: "Hello "' World'
OUTPUT: "Hello World"
INPUT: Hello" World"
OUTPUT: "Hello World"
This broke the setting of dictionary values for the "settings set" command
for things like:
(lldb) settings set target.process.env-vars ["MY_ENV_VAR"]=YES
since we would drop the quotes. I fixed the user settings controller to use
a regular expression so it can accept any of the following inputs for
dictionary setting:
settings set target.process.env-vars ["MY_ENV_VAR"]=YES
settings set target.process.env-vars [MY_ENV_VAR]=YES
settings set target.process.env-vars MY_ENV_VAR=YES
We might want to eventually drop the first two syntaxes, but I won't make
that decision right now.
This allows more natural setting of the envirorment variables:
settings set target.process.env-vars MY_ENV_VAR=YES ABC=DEF CWD=/tmp
llvm-svn: 122166
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.

can avoid running the code in the target if the
expression's result is known and the expression
has no side effects.
Right now this feature is quite conservative in
its guess about side effects, and it only computes
integer results, but the machinery to make it more
sophisticated is there.

function and also hooked up better error reporting for when things fail.
Fixed issues with trying to display children of pointers when none are
supposed to be shown (no children for function pointers, and more like this).
This was causing child value objects to be made that were correctly firing
an assertion.

SBValue SBFrame::LookupVar(const char *name);
To
SBValue SBFrame::FindVariable (const char *name);
Changed:
SBValue LookupVarInScope (const char *name, const char *scope);
to
SBValue FindValue (const char *name, ValueType value_type);
The latter makes it possible to not only find variables (params, locals, globals, and statics), but we can also now get register sets, registers and persistent variables using the frame as the context.
llvm-svn: 121777
values or persistent expression variables. Now if an expression consists of
a value that is a child of a variable, or of a persistent variable only, we
will create a value object for it and make a ValueObjectConstResult from it to
freeze the value (for program variables only, not persistent variables) and
avoid running JITed code. For everything else we still parse up and JIT code
and run it in the inferior.
There was also a lot of clean up in the expression code. I made the
ClangExpressionVariables be stored in collections of shared pointers instead
of in collections of objects. This will help stop a lot of copy constructors on
these large objects and also cleans up the code considerably. The persistent
clang expression variables were moved over to the Target to ensure they persist
across process executions.
Added the ability for lldb_private::Target objects to evaluate expressions.
We want to evaluate expressions at the target level in case we aren't running
yet, or we have just completed running. We still want to be able to access the
persistent expression variables between runs, and also evaluate constant
expressions.
Added extra logging to the dynamic loader plug-in for MacOSX. ModuleList objects
can now dump their contents with the UUID, arch and full paths being logged with
appropriate prefix values.
Thread hardened the Communication class a bit by making the connection auto_ptr
member into a shared pointer member and then making a local copy of the shared
pointer in each method that uses it to make sure another thread can't nuke the
connection object while it is being used by another thread.
Added a new file to the lldb/test/load_unload test that causes the test a.out file
to link to the libd.dylib file all the time. This will allow us to test using
the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable after moving libd.dylib somewhere else.

the code to pass the _cmd pointer has been improved, and _cmd
is now set to the value of _cmd for the current context, as
opposed to being simply NULL.
llvm-svn: 121739
access to the members of the Objective-C self object.
The approach we take is to generate the method as a
@category on top of the self object, and to pass the
"self" pointer to it. (_cmd is currently NULL.)
Most changes are in ClangExpressionDeclMap, but the
change that adds support to the ABIs to pass _cmd
touches a fair amount of code.
llvm-svn: 121722
the lldb PyThon API SBSourceManager to display source files.
To accomodate this, the C++ SBSourceManager API has been changed to take an
lldb::SBStream as the destination for display of source lines. Modify SBStream::ctor()
so that its opaque pointer is initialized with an StreamString instance.
