expressions that refer to ivars will not work because Clang
emits IR that refers to them to get the ivar offsets.
However, it is possible to search the runtime for these values.
I have added support for reading the relevant tables to the
Objective-C runtime, and extended ClangExpressionDeclMap to
query that information if and only if it doesn't find the symbols
in the binary.
Also added a testcase.

The attached patch adds eValueTypeVector to lldb_private::Value. The nested struct Vector is patterned after RegisterValue::m_data.buffer. This change to Value allows ClangExpressionDeclMap::LookupDecl to return vector register data for consumption by InterpreterStackFrame::ResolveValue. Note that ResolveValue was tweaked slightly to allocate enough memory for vector registers.
An immediate result of this patch is that "expr $xmm0" generates the same results on Linux as on the Mac, which is good enough for TestRegisters.py. In addition, the log of m_memory.PrintData(data_region.m_base, data_region.m_extent) shows that the register content has been resolved successfully. On the other hand, the output is glaringly empty:
runCmd: expr $xmm0
output: (unsigned char __attribute__((ext_vector_type(16)))) $0 = {}

so it could hold this information, and then used it to look up unfound names in the object pointer
if it exists. This gets "frame var" to work for unqualified references to ivars captured in blocks.
But the expression parser is ignoring this information still.

enabled after we'd found a few bugs that were caused by shadowed
local variables; the most important issue this turned up was
a common mistake of trying to obtain a mutex lock for the scope
of a code block by doing
Mutex::Locker(m_map_mutex);
This doesn't assign the lock object to a local variable; it is
a temporary that has its dtor called immediately. Instead,
Mutex::Locker locker(m_map_mutex);
does what is intended. For some reason -Wshadow happened to
highlight these as shadowed variables.
I also fixed a few obivous and easy shadowed variable issues
across the code base but there are a couple dozen more that
should be fixed when someone has a free minute.

top-of-tree. Removed all local patches and llvm.zip.
The intent is that fron now on top-of-tree will
always build against LLVM/Clang top-of-tree, and
that problems building will be resolved as they
occur. Stable release branches of LLDB can be
constructed as needed and linked to specific release
branches of LLVM/Clang.

not correctly store the contents of Objective-C
classes. This was due to a combination of
factors:
1) Types were only being completed if we were
looking inside them for specific ivars
(using FindExternalVisibleDeclsByName).
We now look the complete type up at every
FindExternalLexicalDecls.
2) Even if the types were completed properly,
ValueObjectConstResult overrode the type
of every ValueObject using the complete type
for its class from the debug information.
Superclasses of complete classes are not
guaranteed to be complete. Although "frame
variable" uses the debug information,
the expression parser does now piece together
complete types at every level (as described
in Bullet 1), so I provided a way for the
expression parser to prevent overriding.
3) Type sizes were being miscomputed by
ClangASTContext. It ignored the ISA pointer
and only counted fields. We now correctly
count the ISA in the size of an object.

Fixed an issue that could cause circular type parsing that will assert and kill LLDB.
Prior to this fix the DWARF parser would always create class types and not start their definitions (for both C++ and ObjC classes) until we were asked to complete the class later. When we had cases like:
class A
{
class B
{
};
};
We would alway try to complete A before specifying "A" as the decl context for B. Turns out we can just start the definition and still not complete the class since we can check the TagDecl::isCompleteDefinition() function. This only works for C++ types. This means we will not be pulling in the full definition of parent classes all the time and should help with our memory consumption and also reduce the amount of debug info we have to parse.
I also reduced redundant code that was checking in a lldb::clang_type_t was a possible C++ dynamic type since it was still completing the type, just to see if it was dynamic. This was fixed in another function that was checking for a type being dynamic as an ObjC or a C++ type, but there was dedicated fucntion for C++ that we missed.
llvm-svn: 153713
Now when LLDB reports a variable, it has a
complete type. Similarly, when it reports
members of a struct, it completes their types.
Also, when it creates the result variable for
an expression, it ensures that variable's type
is complete.
This ensures compliance with Clang's
expectations, preventing potential crashes.
llvm-svn: 152771
This takes two important changes:
- Calling blocks is now supported. You need to
cast their return values, but that works fine.
- We now can correctly run JIT-compiled
expressions that use floating-point numbers.
Also, we have taken a fix that allows us to
ignore access control in Objective-C as in C++.
llvm-svn: 152286
This fix really needed to happen as a previous fix I had submitted for
calculating symbol sizes made many symbols appear to have zero size since
the function that was calculating the symbol size was calling another function
that would cause the calculation to happen again. This resulted in some symbols
having zero size when they shouldn't. This could then cause infinite stack
traces and many other side affects.

indicate whether inline functions are desired.
This allows the expression parser, for instance,

parser. Specifically:
- ClangUserExpression now keeps weak pointers to the
structures it needs and then locks them when needed.
This ensures that they continue to be valid without
leaking memory if the ClangUserExpression is long
lived.
- ClangExpressionDeclMap, instead of keeping a pointer
to an ExecutionContext, now contains an
ExecutionContext. This prevents bugs if the pointer
or its contents somehow become stale. It also no
longer requires that ExecutionContexts be passed
into any function except its initialization function,
since it can count on the ExecutionContext still
being around.
There's a lot of room for improvement (specifically,
ClangExpressionDeclMap should also use weak pointers
insetad of shared pointers) but this is an important
first step that codifies assumptions that already
existed in the code.
llvm-svn: 150217
information about the current frame rather than
the debug information about "this" and "self"
when determining the types of those pointers.
This allows expressions to work in frames that
don't have valid "this" and "self" pointers,
working around poor debug information.
llvm-svn: 150051
LLVM/Clang. This brings in several fixes, including:
- Improvements in the Just-In-Time compiler's
allocation of memory: the JIT now allocates
memory in chunks of sections, improving its
ability to generate relocations. I have
revamped the RecordingMemoryManager to reflect
these changes, as well as to get the memory
allocation and data copying out fo the
ClangExpressionParser code. Jim Grosbach wrote
the updates to the JIT on the LLVM side.
- A new ExternalASTSource interface to allow LLDB to
report accurate structure layout information to
Clang. Previously we could only report the sizes
of fields, not their offsets. This meant that if
data structures included field alignment
directives, we could not communicate the necessary
alignment to Clang and accesses to the data would
fail. Now we can (and I have update the relevant
test case). Thanks to Doug Gregor for implementing
the Clang side of this fix.
- The way Objective-C interfaces are completed by
Clang has been made consistent with RecordDecls;
with help from Doug Gregor and Greg Clayton I have
ensured that this still works.
- I have eliminated all local LLVM and Clang patches,
committing the ones that are still relevant to LLVM
and Clang as needed.
I have tested the changes extensively locally, but
please let me know if they cause any trouble for you.

valobj.AddressOf() returns None when an address is expected in a SyntheticChildrenProvider
Patch from Enrico Granata:
The problem was that the frozen object created by the expression parser was a copy of the contents of the StgClosure, rather than a pointer to it. Thus, the expression parser was correctly computing the result of the arithmetic&cast operation along with its address, but only saving it in the live object. This meant that the frozen copy acted as an address-less variable, hence the problem.
The fix attached to this email lets the expression parser store the "live address" in the frozen copy of the address when the object is built without a valid address of its own.
Doing so, along with delegating ValueObjectConstResult to calculate its own address when necessary, solves the issue. I have also added a new test case to check for regressions in this area, and checked that existing test cases pass correctly.
llvm-svn: 146768
we handle Objective-C method calls. Currently,
LLDB treats the result of an Objective-C method
as unknown if the type information doesn't have
the method's signature. Now Clang can cast the
result to id if it isn't explicitly cast.
I also added a test case for this, as well as a
fix for a type import problem that this feature
exposed.
llvm-svn: 146756
- Even if a frame isn't present, we always try
to use FindGlobalVariable to find variables.
Instead of using frame->TrackGlobalVariable()
to promote the VariableSP into a ValueObject,
we now simply use ValueObjectVariable.
- When requesting the value of a variable, we
allow returning of the "live version" of the
variable -- that is, the variable in the
target instead of a pointer to its freeze
dried version in LLDB -- even if there is no
process present.
llvm-svn: 146315
from symbols more accessible, I have added a second
map to the ClangASTImporter: the ObjCInterfaceMetaMap.
This map keeps track of all type definitions found for
a particular Objective-C interface, allowing the
ClangASTSource to refer to all possible sources when
looking for method definitions.
There is a bug in lookup that I still need to figure out,
but after that we should be able to report full method
information for Objective-C classes shown in symbols.
Also fixed some errors I ran into when enabling the maps
for the persistent type store. The persistent type store
previously did not use the ClangASTImporter to import
types, instead using ASTImporters that got allocated each
time a type needed copying. To support the requirements
of the persistent type store -- namely, that types must be
copied, completed, and then completely severed from their
origin in the parser's AST context (which will go away) --
I added a new function called DeportType which severs all
these connections.

Also eliminated a use of getAs and replaced it with

robust:
- Now a client can specify what kind of symbols
are needed; notably, this allows looking up
Objective-C class symbols specifically.
- In the class of symbols being looked up, if
one is non-NULL and others are NULL, LLDB now
prefers the non-NULL one.

to allow variables in the persistent variable store to know
how to complete themselves from debug information. That
fixes a variety of bugs during dematerialization of
expression results and also makes persistent variable and
result variables ($foo, $4, ...) more useful.
I have also added logging improvements that make it much
easier to figure out how types are moving from place to
place, and made some checking a little more aggressive.
The commit includes patches to Clang which are currently being
integrated into Clang proper; once these fixes are in Clang
top-of-tree, these patches will be removed. The patches don't
fix API; rather, they fix some internal bugs in Clang's
ASTImporter that were exposed when LLDB was moving types from
place to place multiple times.
llvm-svn: 144969
of problems with Objective-C object completion. To go
along with the LLVM/Clang-side fixes, we have a variety
of Objective-C improvements.
Fixes include:
- It is now possible to run expressions when stopped in
an Objective-C class method and have "self" act just
like "self" would act in the class method itself (i.e.,
[self classMethod] works without casting the return
type if debug info is present). To accomplish this,
the expression masquerades as a class method added by
a category.
- Objective-C objects can now provide methods and
properties and methods to Clang on demand (i.e., the
ASTImporter sets hasExternalVisibleDecls on Objective-C
interface objects).
- Objective-C built-in types, which had long been a bone
of contention (should we be using "id"? "id*"?), are
now fetched correctly using accessor functions on
ClangASTContext. We inhibit searches for them in the
debug information.
There are also a variety of logging fixes, and I made two
changes to the test suite:
- Enabled a test case for Objective-C properties in the
current translation unit.
- Added a test case for calling Objective-C class methods
when stopped in a class method.
