ValueObjects themselves use DumpValueObjectOptions as the currency for the same purpose
The code to convert between these two units was replicated (to varying degrees of correctness) in several spots in the code
This checkin provides one and only one (and hopefully correct :-) entry point for this conversion

Replacing the address argument type with address-expression in cases where StringToAddress() is used, and hence an expression can be passed where previously only a numeric address was allowed
This makes the documentation more clear and helps users discover that they can truly pass in an expression in these situations.

Major fixed to allow reading files that are over 4GB. The main problems were that the DataExtractor was using 32 bit offsets as a data cursor, and since we mmap all of our object files we could run into cases where if we had a very large core file that was over 4GB, we were running into the 4GB boundary.
So I defined a new "lldb::offset_t" which should be used for all file offsets.
After making this change, I enabled warnings for data loss and for enexpected implicit conversions temporarily and found a ton of things that I fixed.
Any functions that take an index internally, should use "size_t" for any indexes and also should return "size_t" for any sizes of collections.

Providing a special mode of operator for "memory read -f c-str" which actually works in most common cases
Where the old behavior would provide:
(lldb) mem read --format s `foo`
0x100000f5d: NULL
Now we do:
(lldb) mem read --format s `foo`
0x100000f5d: "hello world"
You can also specify a count and that many strings will be showed starting at the initial address:
(lldb) mem read -c 2 -f c-str `foo`
0x100000f1d: "hello world"
0x100000f29: "short"

Now each command object contains a "ExecutionContext m_exe_ctx;" member variable that gets initialized prior to running the command. The validity of the target objects in m_exe_ctx are checked to ensure that any target/process/thread/frame/reg context that are required are valid prior to executing the command. Each command object also contains a Mutex::Locker m_api_locker which gets used if eFlagTryTargetAPILock is set. This centralizes a lot of checking code that was previously and inconsistently implemented across many commands.

Memory read's "repeat" behavior forgets "-t" option. It also formatted the type as hex bytes + ASCII. Now we revert to the default format when displaying types unless the user sets the format option manually.
llvm-svn: 170265
I modified the "Args::StringtoAddress(...)" function to be able to evaluate address expressions. This is now used for any command line arguments or options that takes addresses like:
memory read <addr> [<end-addr>]
memory write <addr>
breakpoint set --address <addr>
disassemble --start-address <addr> --end-address <addr>
It calls the expression parser to evaluate the address expression and will also work around the issue where the compiler doesn't like to add offsets to function pointers (which is what happens when you try to evaluate "main + 12"). So there is a temp fix in the Args::StringtoAddress() to work around this until we can get special compiler support for debug expressions with function pointers.

- add new header lldb-python.h to be included before other system headers
- short term fix (eventually python dependencies must be cleaned up)
Patch by Matt Kopec!
llvm-svn: 169341
Cleaned up the option parsing code to always pass around the short options as integers. Previously we cast this down to "char" and lost some information. I recently added an assert that would detect duplicate short character options which was firing during the test suite.
This fix does the following:
- make sure all short options are treated as "int"
- make sure that short options can be non-printable values when a short option is not required or when an option group is mixed into many commands and a short option is not desired
- fix the help printing to "do the right thing" in all cases. Previously if there were duplicate short character options, it would just not emit help for the duplicates
- fix option parsing when there are duplicates to parse options correctly. Previously the option parsing, when done for an OptionGroup, would just start parsing options incorrectly by omitting table entries and it would end up setting the wrong option value

that problems building will be resolved as they

Make breakpoint setting by file and line much more efficient by only looking for inlined breakpoint locations if we are setting a breakpoint in anything but a source implementation file. Implementing this complex for a many reasons. Turns out that parsing compile units lazily had some issues with respect to how we need to do things with DWARF in .o files. So the fixes in the checkin for this makes these changes:
- Add a new setting called "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" which can be set to "never", "always", or "headers". "never" will never try and set any inlined breakpoints (fastest). "always" always looks for inlined breakpoint locations (slowest, but most accurate). "headers", which is the default setting, will only look for inlined breakpoint locations if the breakpoint is set in what are consudered to be header files, which is realy defined as "not in an implementation source file".
- modify the breakpoint setting by file and line to check the current "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" setting and act accordingly
- Modify compile units to be able to get their language and other info lazily. This allows us to create compile units from the debug map and not have to fill all of the details in, and then lazily discover this information as we go on debuggging. This is needed to avoid parsing all .o files when setting breakpoints in implementation only files (no inlines). Otherwise we would need to parse the .o file, the object file (mach-o in our case) and the symbol file (DWARF in the object file) just to see what the compile unit was.
- modify the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" to subclass lldb_private::Module so that the virtual "GetObjectFile()" and "GetSymbolVendor()" functions can be intercepted when the .o file contenst are later lazilly needed. Prior to this fix, when we first instantiated the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" class, we would also make modules, object files and symbol files for every .o file in the debug map because we needed to fix up the sections in the .o files with information that is in the executable debug map. Now we lazily do this in the DebugMapModule::GetObjectFile()
Cleaned up header includes a bit as well.

- no setting auto completion
- very manual and error prone way of getting/setting variables
- tons of code duplication
- useless instance names for processes, threads
Now settings can easily be defined like option values. The new settings makes use of the "OptionValue" classes so we can re-use the option value code that we use to set settings in command options. No more instances, just "does the right thing".
llvm-svn: 162366
loop if "memory read" is run with the -t option and
the type name contains a keyword like "struct" that
isn't followed by a space. Now if a keyword isn't
followed by a space we continue searching after it,
instead of at the beginning of the type name.
Also optimized the code to not call strlen() on
a fixed set of statically-declared constant strings.

Execute which was never going to get run and another ExecuteRawCommandString. Took the knowledge of how
to prepare raw & parsed commands out of CommandInterpreter and put it in CommandObject where it belongs.
Also took all the cases where there were the subcommands of Multiword commands declared in the .h file for
the overall command and moved them into the .cpp file.
Made the CommandObject flags work for raw as well as parsed commands.
Made "expr" use the flags so that it requires you to be paused to run "expr".
llvm-svn: 158235
Fixed type lookups to "do the right thing". Prior to this fix, looking up a type using "foo::bar" would result in a type list that contains all types that had "bar" as a basename unless the symbol file was able to match fully qualified names (which our DWARF parser does not).
This fix will allow type matches to be made based on the basename and then have the types that don't match filtered out. Types by name can be fully qualified, or partially qualified with the new "bool exact_match" parameter to the Module::FindTypes() method.
This fixes some issue that we discovered with dynamic type resolution as well as improves the overall type lookups in LLDB.
llvm-svn: 153482
Changes to synthetic children:
- the update(self): function can now (optionally) return a value - if it returns boolean value True, ValueObjectSyntheticFilter will not clear its caches across stop-points
this should allow better performance for Python-based synthetic children when one can be sure that the child ValueObjects have not changed
- making a difference between a synthetic VO and a VO with a synthetic value: now a ValueObjectSyntheticFilter will not return itself as its own synthetic value, but will (correctly)
claim to itself be synthetic
- cleared up the internal synthetic children architecture to make a more consistent use of pointers and references instead of shared pointers when possible
- major cleanup of unnecessary #include, data and functions in ValueObjectSyntheticFilter itself
- removed the SyntheticValueType enum and replaced it with a plain boolean (to which it was equivalent in the first place)
Some clean ups to the summary generation code
Centralized the code that clears out user-visible strings and data in ValueObject

2) providing an updated list of tagged pointers values for the objc_runtime module - hopefully this one is final
3) changing ValueObject::DumpValueObject to use an Options class instead of providing a bulky list of parameters to pass around
this change had been laid out previously, but some clients of DumpValueObject() were still using the old prototype and some arguments
were treated in a special way and passed in directly instead of through the Options class
4) providing new GetSummaryAsCString() and GetValueAsCString() calls in ValueObject that are passed a formatter object and a destination string
and fill the string by formatting themselves using the formatter argument instead of the default for the current ValueObject
5) removing the option to have formats and summaries stick to a variable for the current stoppoint
after some debate, we are going with non-sticky: if you say frame variable --format hex foo, the hex format will only be applied to the current command execution and not stick when redisplaying foo
the other option would be full stickiness, which means that foo would be formatted as hex for its whole lifetime
we are open to suggestions on what feels "natural" in this regard

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.

in the same hashed format as the ".apple_names", but they map objective C
class names to all of the methods and class functions. We need to do this
because in the DWARF the methods for Objective C are never contained in the
class definition, they are scattered about at the translation unit level and
they don't even have attributes that say the are contained within the class
itself.
Added 3 new formats which can be used to display data:
eFormatAddressInfo
eFormatHexFloat
eFormatInstruction
eFormatAddressInfo describes an address such as function+offset and file+line,
or symbol + offset, or constant data (c string, 2, 4, 8, or 16 byte constants).
The format character for this is "A", the long format is "address".
eFormatHexFloat will print out the hex float format that compilers tend to use.
The format character for this is "X", the long format is "hex float".
eFormatInstruction will print out disassembly with bytes and it will use the
current target's architecture. The format character for this is "i" (which
used to be being used for the integer format, but the integer format also has
"d", so we gave the "i" format to disassembly), the long format is
"instruction".
Mate the lldb::FormatterChoiceCriterion enumeration private as it should have
been from the start. It is very specialized and doesn't belong in the public
API.
llvm-svn: 143114
properly marked as valid.
Also modified the "memory read" command to be able to intelligently repeat
subsequent memory requests, so now you can do:
(lldb) memory read --format hex --count 32 0x1000
Then hit enter to keep viewing the memory that follows the last valid request.

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
OptionGroupFormat. Updated OptionGroupFormat to be able to also use the
"--size" and "--count" options. Commands that use a OptionGroupFormat instance
can choose which of the options they want by initializing OptionGroupFormat
accordingly. Clients can either get only the "--format", "--format" + "--size",
or "--format" + "--size" + "--count". This is in preparation for upcoming
chnages where there are alternate ways (GDB format specification) to set a
format.
llvm-svn: 142911
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.

*New setting target.max-children-count gives an upper-bound to the number of child objects that will be displayed at each depth-level
This might be a breaking change in some scenarios. To override the new limit you can use the --show-all-children (-A) option
to frame variable or increase the limit in your lldbinit file
*Command "type synthetic" has been split in two:
- "type synthetic" now only handles Python synthetic children providers
- the new command "type filter" handles filters
Because filters and synthetic providers are both ways to replace the children of a ValueObject, only one can be effective at any given time.

(e.g. ${var%S}). this might already be the default if your variable is of an aggregate type
new feature: synthetic filters. you can restrict the number of children for your variables to only a meaningful subset
- the restricted list of children obeys the typical rules (e.g. summaries prevail over children)
- one-line summaries show only the filtered (synthetic) children, if you type an expanded summary string, or you use Python scripts, all the real children are accessible
- to provide a synthetic children list use the "type synth add" command, as in:
type synth add foo_type --child varA --child varB[0] --child varC->packet->flags[1-4]
(you can use ., ->, single-item array operator [N] and bitfield operator [N-M]; array slice access is not supported, giving simplified names to expression paths is not supported)
- a new -S option to frame variable and target variable lets you override synthetic children and instead show real ones
llvm-svn: 135731
- help type summary add now gives some hints on how to use it
frame variable and target variable now have a --no-summary-depth (-Y) option:
- simply using -Y without an argument will skip one level of summaries, i.e.
your aggregate types will expand their children and display no summary, even
if they have one. children will behave normally
- using -Y<int>, as in -Y4, -Y7, ..., will skip as many levels of summaries as
given by the <int> parameter (obviously, -Y and -Y1 are the same thing). children
beneath the given depth level will behave normally
-Y0 is the same as omitting the --no-summary-depth parameter entirely
This option replaces the defined-but-unimplemented --no-summary
llvm-svn: 135336
variables prior to running your binary. Zero filled sections now get
section data correctly filled with zeroes when Target::ReadMemory
reads from the object file section data.
Added new option groups and option values for file lists. I still need
to hook up all of the options to "target variable" to allow more complete
introspection by file and shlib.
Added the ability for ValueObjectVariable objects to be created with
only the target as the execution context. This allows them to be read
from the object files through Target::ReadMemory(...).
Added a "virtual Module * GetModule()" function to the ValueObject
class. By default it will look to the parent variable object and
return its module. The module is needed when we have global variables
that have file addresses (virtual addresses that are specific to
module object files) and in turn allows global variables to be displayed
prior to running.
Removed all of the unused proxy object support that bit rotted in
lldb_private::Value.
Replaced a lot of places that used "FileSpec::Compare (lhs, rhs) == 0" code
with the more efficient "FileSpec::Equal (lhs, rhs)".
Improved logging in GDB remote plug-in.
llvm-svn: 134579
the FormatManager class. Modified the format arguments in any commands to be
able to use a single character format, or a full format name, or a partial
format name if no full format names match.
Modified any code that was displaying formats to use the new FormatManager
calls so that our help text and errors never get out of date.
Modified the display of the "type format list" command to be a bit more
human readable by showing the format as a format string rather than the single
character format char.
llvm-svn: 133765
This us useful because sometomes you have to show a single character as: 'a'
(using eFormatChar) and other times you might have an array of single
charcters for display as: 'a' 'b' 'c', and other times you might want to
show the contents of buffer of characters that can contain non printable
chars: "\0\x22\n123".
This also fixes an issue that currently happens when you have a single character
C string (const char *a = "a"; or char b[1] = { 'b' };) that was being output
as "'a'" incorrectly due to the way the eFormatChar format output worked.
