Most of the changes are to the FuncUnwinders class -- as we've added
more types of unwind information, the way this class was written was
making it a mess to maintain. Instead of trying to keep one
"non-call site" unwind plan and one "call site" unwind plan, track
all the different types of unwind plans we can possibly retrieve for
each function and have the call-site/non-call-site accessor methods
retrieve those.
Add a real "fast unwind plan" for x86_64 / i386 -- when doing an
unwind through a function, this only has to read the first 4 bytes
to tell if the function has a standard prologue sequence. If so,
we can use the architecture default unwind plan to backtrace
through this function. If we try to retrieve the save location for
other registers later on, a real unwind plan will be used. This
one is just for doing fast backtraces.
Change the compact unwind plan importer to fill in the valid address
range it is valid for.
Compact unwind, in theory, may have multiple entries for a single
function. The FuncUnwinders rewrite includes the start of supporting
this correctly. In practice compact unwind encodings are used for
the entire range of the function today -- in fact, sometimes the same
encoding is used for multiple functions that have the same unwind
rules. But I want to handle a single function that has multiple
different compact unwind UnwindPlans eventually.

section for x86_64 and i386 targets on Darwin systems. Currently only the
compact unwind encoding for normal frame-using functions is supported but it
will be easy handle frameless functions when I have a bit more free time to
test it. The LSDA and personality routines for functions are also retrieved
correctly for functions from the compact unwind section.
This new code is very fresh -- it passes the lldb testsuite and I've done
by-hand inspection of many functions and am getting correct behavior for all
of them. There may need to be some bug fixing over the next couple weeks as
I exercise and test it further. But I think it's fine right now so I'm
committing it.

retrieves the personality routine addr and the
LSDA addr. Don't bother checking with the
"non-call site" unwind plan - this kind of
information is only going to come from the
call site unwind plan.

eh_frame data. These two pieces of information are used in the
process of exception handler unwinding on SysV ABI systems.
This patch reads the data from the eh_frame section
(DWARFCallFrameInfo.cpp), allows for it to be saved & read out
of a given UnwindPlan (UnwindPlan.h, UnwindPlan.cpp) - as well
as printing the information in the UnwindPlan::Dump method - and
adds methods to the FuncUnwinders object so that higher levels
can query if a given function has an LSDA / personality routine
defined.
It's only lightly tested, but seems to be working correctly as long
as your have this information in eh_frame. Does not address getting
this information from compact unwind yet on Darwin systems.

let's let lldb try the arch default unwind every time but not destructively --
it doesn't permanently replace the main unwind method for that function from
now on.
This fix is for <rdar://problem/18683658>.
I tested it against Ryan Brown's go program test case and also a
collection of core files of tricky unwind scenarios

We decided to use assmbly profiler instead of eh_frame for frame 0 because for compiler generated code, eh_frame is usually synchronous(a.k.a. only valid at call site); and we have no way to tell if it's asynchronous or not.
But for x86 & x86_64 compiler generated code:
1. clang & GCC describes all prologue instructions in eh_frame;
2. mid-function stack pointer altering instructions can be easily detected.
So we can grab eh_frame, and use assembly profiler to augment it into asynchronous unwind table.
This change also benefits hand-written assembly; eh_frame for hand-written assembly is often asynchronous,so we have a much better chance to successfully unwind through them.

and sharing it with all of its FuncUnwinders, have each FuncUnwinder
create an AssemblyProfiler on demand as needed. I was worried that
the cost of creating the llvm disassemblers would be high for this
approach but it's not supposed to be an expensive operation, and it
means we don't need to add locks around this section of code.

to its unwind assembly profiler to all of the FuncUnwinders (one
per symbol) under it. If lldb is running multiple targets, you
could get two different FuncUnwinders in the same Module trying
to use the same llvm disassembler simultaneously and that may be
a re-entrancy problem.
Instead, the UnwindTable has the unwind assembly profiler and when
the FuncUnwinders want to use it, they get exclusive access to
the assembly profiler until they're done using it.

default-at-first-instruction UnwindPlan if we're at the beginning of a function and
the ABI can provide us with an UnwindPlan to get out of there before falling back
to the generic architectural default UnwindPlan (which usually assumes that the stack
has already been set up.)
Update the FuncUnwinders methods to gracefully handle the case where an assembly
profiler may not be available.
Fix a bug where FuncUnwinders::GetUnwindPlanArchitectureDefaultAtFunctionEntry was
returning the wrong UnwindPlan to its caller.

Full UnwindPlan is trying to do an impossible unwind; in that case
invalidate the Full UnwindPlan and replace it with the architecture
default unwind plan.
This is a scenario that happens occasionally with arm unwinds in
particular; the instruction analysis based full unwindplan can
mis-parse the functions and the stack walk stops prematurely. Now
we can do a simpleminded frame-chain walk to find the caller frame
and continue the unwind. It's not ideal but given the complicated
nature of analyzing the arm functions, and the lack of eh_frame
information on iOS, it is a distinct improvement and fixes some
long-standing problems with the unwinder on that platform.
This is fixing <rdar://problem/12091421>. I may re-use this
invalidate feature in the future if I can identify other cases where
the full unwindplan's unwind information is clearly incorrect.
This checkin also includes some cleanup for the volatile register
definition in the arm ABI plugin for <rdar://problem/10652166>
although work remains to be done for that bug.

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
the lldb_private::StackFrame objects hold onto a weak pointer to the thread
object. The lldb_private::StackFrame objects the the most volatile objects
we have as when we are doing single stepping, frames can often get lost or
thrown away, only to be re-created as another object that still refers to the
same frame. We have another bug tracking that. But we need to be able to
have frames no longer be able to get the thread when they are not part of
a thread anymore, and this is the first step (this fix makes that possible
but doesn't implement it yet).
Also changed lldb_private::ExecutionContextScope to return shared pointers to
all objects in the execution context to further thread harden the internals.

UnwindPlan for unwinding from the first instruction of an otherwise
unknown function call (GetUnwindPlanArchitectureDefaultAtFunctionEntry()).
Update RegisterContextLLDB::GetFullUnwindPlanForFrame() to detect the
case of a frame 0 at address 0x0 which indicates that we jumped through
a NULL function pointer. Use the ABI's FunctionEntryUnwindPlan to
find the caller frame.
These changes make it so lldb can identify the calling frame correctly
in code like
int main ()
{
void (*f)(void) = 0;
f();
}

respective ABI plugins as they were plug-ins that supplied ABI specfic info.
Also hookep up the UnwindAssemblyInstEmulation so that it can generate the
unwind plans for ARM.
Changed the way ABI plug-ins are handed out when you get an instance from
the plug-in manager. They used to return pointers that would be mananged
individually by each client that requested them, but now they are handed out
as shared pointers since there is no state in the ABI objects, they can be
shared.
llvm-svn: 131193
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.
llvm-svn: 125541
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.

needs to use the current pc and current offset in two ways: To
determine which function we are currently executing, and the decide
how much of that function has executed so far. For the former use,
we need to back up the saved pc value by one byte if we're going to
use the correct function's unwind information -- we may be executing
a CALL instruction at the end of a function and the following instruction
belongs to a new function, or we may be looking at unwind information
which only covers the call instruction and not the subsequent instruction.
But when we're talking about deciding which row of an UnwindPlan to
execute, we want to use the actual byte offset in the function, not the
byte offset - 1.
Right now RegisterContextLLDB is tracking both the "real" offset and
an "offset minus one" and different parts of the class have to know
which one to use and they need to be updated/set in tandem. I want
to revisit this at some point.
The second change made in looking up eh_frame information; it was
formerly done by looking for the start address of the function we
are currently executing. But it is possible to have unwind information
for a function which only covers a small section of the function's
address range. In which case looking up by the start pc value may not
find the eh_frame FDE.
The hand-written _sigtramp() unwind info on Mac OS X, which covers
exactly one instruction in the middle of the function, happens to
trigger both of these issues.
I still need to get the UnwindPlan runner to handle arbitrary dwarf
expressions in the FDE but there's a good chance it will be easy to
reuse the DWARFExpression class to do this.
llvm-svn: 118882
fixed them. Added DISALLOW_COPY_AND_ASSIGN to classes that should
not be bitwise copied. Added default initializers for member
variables that weren't being initialized in the ctor. Fixed a few
shadowed local variable mistakes.
llvm-svn: 118240
Not yet enabled as the default unwinder but there are no known
backtrace problems with the code at this point.
Added 'log enable lldb unwind' to help diagnose backtrace problems;
this output needs a little refining but it's a good first step.
eh_frame information is currently read unconditionally - the code
is structured to allow this to be delayed until it's actually needed.
There is a performance hit when you have to parse the eh_frame
information for any largeish executable/library so it's necessary
to avoid if possible.
It's confusing having both the UnwindPlan::RegisterLocation struct
and the RegisterConextLLDB::RegisterLocation struct, I need to rename
one of them.
The writing of registers isn't done in the RegisterConextLLDB subclass
yet; neither is the running of complex DWARF expressions from eh_frame
(e.g. used for _sigtramp on Mac OS X).
llvm-svn: 117256
The Unwind and RegisterContext subclasses still need
to be finished; none of this code is used by lldb at
this point (unless you call into it by hand).
The ObjectFile class now has an UnwindTable object.
The UnwindTable object has a series of FuncUnwinders
objects (Function Unwinders) -- one for each function
in that ObjectFile we've backtraced through during this
debug session.
The FuncUnwinders object has a few different UnwindPlans.
UnwindPlans are a generic way of describing how to find
the canonical address of a given function's stack frame
(the CFA idea from DWARF/eh_frame) and how to restore the
caller frame's register values, if they have been saved
by this function.
UnwindPlans are created from different sources. One source is the
eh_frame exception handling information generated by the compiler
for unwinding an exception throw. Another source is an assembly
language inspection class (UnwindAssemblyProfiler, uses the Plugin
architecture) which looks at the instructions in the funciton
prologue and describes the stack movements/register saves that are
done.
Two additional types of UnwindPlans that are worth noting are
the "fast" stack UnwindPlan which is useful for making a first
pass over a thread's stack, determining how many stack frames there
are and retrieving the pc and CFA values for each frame (enough
to create StackFrameIDs). Only a minimal set of registers is
recovered during a fast stack walk.
The final UnwindPlan is an architectural default unwind plan.
These are provided by the ArchDefaultUnwindPlan class (which uses
the plugin architecture). When no symbol/function address range can
be found for a given pc value -- when we have no eh_frame information
and when we don't have a start address so we can't examine the assembly
language instrucitons -- we have to make a best guess about how to
unwind. That's when we use the architectural default UnwindPlan.
On x86_64, this would be to assume that rbp is used as a stack pointer
and we can use that to find the caller's frame pointer and pc value.
It's a last-ditch best guess about how to unwind out of a frame.
There are heuristics about when to use one UnwindPlan versues the other --
this will all happen in the still-begin-written UnwindLLDB subclass of
Unwind which runs the UnwindPlans.
