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.

shared pointers.
Changed the ExecutionContext over to use shared pointers for
the target, process, thread and frame since these objects can
easily go away at any time and any object that was holding onto
an ExecutionContext was running the risk of using a bad object.
Now that the shared pointers for target, process, thread and
frame are just a single pointer (they all use the instrusive
shared pointers) the execution context is much safer and still
the same size.
Made the shared pointers in the the ExecutionContext class protected
and made accessors for all of the various ways to get at the pointers,
references, and shared pointers.

the arm emulate instruction unwinder so you can leave it
on by default and not be overwhelmed. Set verbose mode to
get the full story on how the unwindplans were created.

the appropriate registers for arm and x86_64. The register names for the
arguments that are the size of a pointer or less are all named "arg1", "arg2",
etc. This allows you to read these registers by name:
(lldb) register read arg1 arg2 arg3
...
You can also now specify you want to see alternate register names when executing
the read register command:
(lldb) register read --alternate
(lldb) register read -A

thread plan. In order to get the return value, you can call:
void
ThreadPlanCallFunction::RequestReturnValue (lldb::ValueSP &return_value_sp);
This registers a shared pointer to a return value that will get filled in if
everything goes well. After the thread plan is run the return value will be
extracted for you.
Added an ifdef to be able to switch between the LLVM MCJIT and the standand JIT.
We currently have the standard JIT selected because we have some work to do to
get the MCJIT fuctioning properly.
Added the ability to call functions with 6 argument in the x86_64 ABI.
Added the ability for GDBRemoteCommunicationClient to detect if the allocate
and deallocate memory packets are supported and to not call allocate memory
("_M") or deallocate ("_m") if we find they aren't supported.
Modified the ProcessGDBRemote::DoAllocateMemory(...) and ProcessGDBRemote::DoDeallocateMemory(...)
to be able to deal with the allocate and deallocate memory packets not being
supported. If they are not supported, ProcessGDBRemote will switch to calling
"mmap" and "munmap" to allocate and deallocate memory instead using our
trivial function call support.
Modified the "void ProcessGDBRemote::DidLaunchOrAttach()" to correctly ignore
the qHostInfo triple information if any was specified in the target. Currently
if the target only specifies an architecture when creating the target:
(lldb) target create --arch i386 a.out
Then the vendor, os and environemnt will be adopted by the target.
If the target was created with any triple that specifies more than the arch:
(lldb) target create --arch i386-unknown-unknown a.out
Then the target will maintain its triple and not adopt any new values. This
can be used to help force bare board debugging where the dynamic loader for
static files will get used and users can then use "target modules load ..."
to set addressses for any files that are desired.
Added back some convenience functions to the lldb_private::RegisterContext class
for writing registers with unsigned values. Also made all RegisterContext
constructors explicit to make sure we know when an integer is being converted
to a RegisterValue.
llvm-svn: 131370
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.

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.
llvm-svn: 131096
Switch the EmulateInstruction to use the standard RegisterInfo structure
that is defined in the lldb private types intead of passing the reg kind and
reg num everywhere. EmulateInstruction subclasses also need to provide
RegisterInfo structs given a reg kind and reg num. This eliminates the need
for the GetRegisterName() virtual function and allows more complete information
to be passed around in the read/write register callbacks. Subclasses should
always provide RegiterInfo structs with the generic register info filled in as
well as at least one kind of register number in the RegisterInfo.kinds[] array.
llvm-svn: 130256
are defined as enumerations. Current bits include:
eEmulateInstructionOptionAutoAdvancePC
eEmulateInstructionOptionIgnoreConditions
Modified the EmulateInstruction class to have a few more pure virtuals that
can help clients understand how many instructions the emulator can handle:
virtual bool
SupportsEmulatingIntructionsOfType (InstructionType inst_type) = 0;
Where instruction types are defined as:
//------------------------------------------------------------------
/// Instruction types
//------------------------------------------------------------------
typedef enum InstructionType
{
eInstructionTypeAny, // Support for any instructions at all (at least one)
eInstructionTypePrologueEpilogue, // All prologue and epilogue instructons that push and pop register values and modify sp/fp
eInstructionTypePCModifying, // Any instruction that modifies the program counter/instruction pointer
eInstructionTypeAll // All instructions of any kind
} InstructionType;
This allows use to tell what an emulator can do and also allows us to request
these abilities when we are finding the plug-in interface.
Added the ability for an EmulateInstruction class to get the register names
for any registers that are part of the emulation. This helps with being able
to dump and log effectively.
The UnwindAssembly class now stores the architecture it was created with in
case it is needed later in the unwinding process.
Added a function that can tell us DWARF register names for ARM that goes
along with the source/Utility/ARM_DWARF_Registers.h file:
source/Utility/ARM_DWARF_Registers.c
Took some of plug-ins out of the lldb_private namespace.
