Cleaned up the Mutex::Locker and the ReadWriteLock classes a bit.
Also cleaned up the GDBRemoteCommunication class to not have so many packet functions. Used the "NoLock" versions of send/receive packet functions when possible for a bit of performance.

Work around a deadlocking issue where "SBDebugger::MemoryPressureDetected ()" is being called and is causing a deadlock. We now just try and get the lock when trying to trim down the unique modules so we don't deadlock debugger GUI programs until we can find the root cause.

Also test for the process to be stopped when many SBValue API calls are made to make sure it is safe to evaluate values, children of values and much more.

This abstracts read/write locks on the current host system. It is currently backed by pthread_rwlock_t objects so it should work on all unix systems.
We also need a way to control multi-threaded access to the process through the public API when it is running. For example it isn't a good idea to try and get stack frames while the process is running. To implement this, the lldb_private::Process class now contains a ReadWriteLock member variable named m_run_lock which is used to control the public process state. The public process state represents the state of the process as the client knows it. The private is used to control the actual current process state. So the public state of the process can be stopped, yet the private state can be running when evaluating an expression for example.
Adding the read/write lock where readers are clients that want the process to stay stopped, and writers are clients that run the process, allows us to accurately control multi-threaded access to the process.
Switched the SBThread and SBFrame over to us shared pointers to the ExecutionContextRef class instead of making their own class to track this. This fixed an issue with assigning on SBFrame to another and will also centralize the code that tracks weak references to execution context objects into one location.
llvm-svn: 154099
indicates that the section is thread specific. Any functions the load a module
given a slide, will currently ignore any sections that are thread specific.
lldb_private::Section now has:
bool
Section::IsThreadSpecific () const
{
return m_thread_specific;
}
void
Section::SetIsThreadSpecific (bool b)
{
m_thread_specific = b;
}
The ELF plug-in has been modified to set this for the ".tdata" and the ".tbss"
sections.
Eventually we need to have each lldb_private::Thread subclass be able to
resolve a thread specific section, but for now they will just not resolve. The
code for that should be trivual to add, but the address resolving functions
will need to be changed to take a "ExecutionContext" object instead of just
a target so that thread specific sections can be resolved.
llvm-svn: 153537
A new setting enable-synthetic-value is provided on the target to disable this behavior.
There also is a new GetNonSyntheticValue() API call on SBValue to go back from synthetic to non-synthetic. There is no call to go from non-synthetic to synthetic.
The test suite has been changed accordingly.
Fallout from changes to type searching: an hack has to be played to make it possible to use maps that contain std::string due to the special name replacement operated by clang
Fixing a test case that was using libstdcpp instead of libc++ - caught as a consequence of said changes to type searching
llvm-svn: 153495
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
Adding a test case that checks that we do not complete types before due time. This should help us track cases similar to the cascading data formatters.
llvm-svn: 153363
Each platform now knows if it can handle an architecture and a platform can be found using an architecture. Each platform can look at the arch, vendor and OS and know if it should be used or not.

GetSupportFileAtIndex(), GetNumSupportFiles(), FindSupportFileIndex():
Add API support for getting the list of files in a compilation unit.
GetNumCompileUnits(), GetCompileUnitAtIndex():
Add API support for retrieving the compilation units in a module.

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.

Several places in the ScriptInterpreter interface used StringList objects where an std::string would suffice - Fixed
Refactoring calls that generated special-purposes functions in the Python interpreter to use helper functions instead of duplicating blobs of code
llvm-svn: 152164
This was done in SBTarget:
lldb::SBInstructionList
lldb::SBTarget::ReadInstructions (lldb::SBAddress base_addr, uint32_t count);
Also cleaned up a few files in the LLDB.framework settings.
llvm-svn: 152152
Add SBFrame::IsEqual(const SBFrame &that) method and export it to the Python binding.
Alos add a test case test_frame_api_IsEqual() to TestFrames.py file.
llvm-svn: 152050
Added the ability to override command line commands. In some cases GUI interfaces
might want to intercept commands like "quit" or "process launch" (which might cause
the process to re-run). They can now do so by overriding/intercepting commands
by using functions added to SBCommandInterpreter using a callback function. If the
callback function returns true, the command is assumed to be handled. If false
is returned the command should be evaluated normally.
Adopted this up in the Driver.cpp for intercepting the "quit" command.
llvm-svn: 151708
a) adds a Python summary provider for NSDate
b) changes the initialization for ScriptInterpreter so that we are not passing a bulk of Python-specific function pointers around
c) provides a new ScriptInterpreterObject class that allows for ref-count safe wrapping of scripting objects on the C++ side
d) contains much needed performance improvements:
1) the pointer to the Python function generating a scripted summary is now cached instead of looked up every time
2) redundant memory reads in the Python ObjC runtime wrapper are eliminated
3) summaries now use the m_summary_str in ValueObject to store their data instead of passing around ( == copying) an std::string object
e) contains other minor fixes, such as adding descriptive error messages for some cases of summary generation failure

more of the local path, platform path, associated symbol file, UUID, arch,
object name and object offset. This allows many of the calls that were
GetSharedModule to reduce the number of arguments that were used in a call
to these functions. It also allows a module to be created with a ModuleSpec
which allows many things to be specified prior to any accessors being called
on the Module class itself.
I was running into problems when adding support for "target symbol add"
where you can specify a stand alone debug info file after debugging has started
where I needed to specify the associated symbol file path and if I waited until
after construction, the wrong symbol file had already been located. By using
the ModuleSpec it allows us to construct a module with as little or as much
information as needed and not have to change the parameter list.
llvm-svn: 151476
will fill out either a SBLaunchInfo or SBAttachInfo class, then call:
SBProcess SBTarget::Launch (SBLaunchInfo &, SBError &);
SBProcess SBTarget::Attach (SBAttachInfo &, SBError &);
The attach is working right now and allows the ability to set many filters such
as the parent process ID, the user/group ID, the effective user/group ID, and much
more.
The launch is not yet working, but I will get this working soon. By changing our
launch and attach calls to take an object, it allows us to add more capabilities to
launching and attaching without having to have launch and attach functions that
take more and more arguments.
Once this is all working we will deprecated the older launch and attach fucntions
and eventually remove them.
llvm-svn: 151344
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.

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.
llvm-svn: 150871
internals. The first part of this is to use a new class:
lldb_private::ExecutionContextRef
This class holds onto weak pointers to the target, process, thread and frame
and it also contains the thread ID and frame Stack ID in case the thread and
frame objects go away and come back as new objects that represent the same
logical thread/frame.
ExecutionContextRef objcets have accessors to access shared pointers for
the target, process, thread and frame which might return NULL if the backing
object is no longer available. This allows for references to persistent program
state without needing to hold a shared pointer to each object and potentially
keeping that object around for longer than it needs to be.
You can also "Lock" and ExecutionContextRef (which contains weak pointers)
object into an ExecutionContext (which contains strong, or shared pointers)
with code like
ExecutionContext exe_ctx (my_obj->GetExectionContextRef().Lock());
llvm-svn: 150801
Adding new API calls to SBValue to be able to retrieve the associated formatters
Some refactoring to FormatNavigator::Get() in order to shrink its size down to more manageable terms (a future, massive, refactoring effort will still be needed)
Test cases added for the above
llvm-svn: 150784
New public API for handling formatters: creating, deleting, modifying categories, and formatters, and managing type/formatter association.
This provides SB classes for each of the main object types involved in providing formatter support:
SBTypeCategory
SBTypeFilter
SBTypeFormat
SBTypeSummary
SBTypeSynthetic
plus, an SBTypeNameSpecifier class that is used on the public API layer to abstract the notion that formatters can be applied to plain type-names as well as to regular expressions
For naming consistency, this patch also renames a lot of formatters-related classes.
Plus, the changes in how flags are handled that started with summaries is now extended to other classes as well. A new enum (lldb::eTypeOption) is meant to support this on the public side.
The patch also adds several new calls to the formatter infrastructure that are used to implement by-index accessing and several other design changes required to accommodate the new API layer.
An architectural change is introduced in that backing objects for formatters now become writable. On the public API layer, CoW is implemented to prevent unwanted propagation of changes.
Lastly, there are some modifications in how the "default" category is constructed and managed in relation to other categories.
llvm-svn: 150558
Tracking modules down when you have a UUID and a path has been improved.
DynamicLoaderDarwinKernel no longer parses mach-o load commands and it
now uses the memory based modules now that we can load modules from memory.
Added a target setting named "target.exec-search-paths" which can be used
to supply a list of directories to use when trying to look for executables.
This allows one or more directories to be used when searching for modules
that may not exist in the SDK/PDK. The target automatically adds the directory
for the main executable to this list so this should help us in tracking down
shared libraries and other binaries.
llvm-svn: 150426
indicate whether inline functions are desired.
This allows the expression parser, for instance,
to filter out inlined functions when looking for

llvm-svn: 150279
user space programs. The core file support is implemented by making a process
plug-in that will dress up the threads and stack frames by using the core file
memory.
Added many default implementations for the lldb_private::Process functions so
that plug-ins like the ProcessMachCore don't need to override many many
functions only to have to return an error.
Added new virtual functions to the ObjectFile class for extracting the frozen
thread states that might be stored in object files. The default implementations
return no thread information, but any platforms that support core files that
contain frozen thread states (like mach-o) can make a module using the core
file and then extract the information. The object files can enumerate the
threads and also provide the register state for each thread. Since each object
file knows how the thread registers are stored, they are responsible for
creating a suitable register context that can be used by the core file threads.
Changed the process CreateInstace callbacks to return a shared pointer and
to also take an "const FileSpec *core_file" parameter to allow for core file
support. This will also allow for lldb_private::Process subclasses to be made
that could load crash logs. This should be possible on darwin where the crash
logs contain all of the stack frames for all of the threads, yet the crash
logs only contain the registers for the crashed thrad. It should also allow
some variables to be viewed for the thread that crashed.
