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
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
contain shared pointers to the lldb_private::Target and lldb_private::Process
objects respectively as we won't want the target or process just going away.
Also cleaned up the lldb::SBModule to remove dangerous pointer accessors.
For any code the public API files, we should always be grabbing shared
pointers to any objects for the current class, and any other classes prior
to running code with them.
llvm-svn: 149238
frames might go away (the object itself, not the actual logical frame) when
we are single stepping due to the way we currently sometimes end up flushing
frames when stepping in/out/over. They later will come back to life
represented by another object yet they have the same StackID. Now when you get
a lldb::SBFrame object, it will track the frame it is initialized with until
the thread goes away or the StackID no longer exists in the stack for the
thread it was created on. It uses a weak_ptr to both the frame and thread and
also stores the StackID. These three items allow us to determine when the
stack frame object has gone away (the weak_ptr will be NULL) and allows us to
find the correct frame again. In our test suite we had such cases where we
were just getting lucky when something like this happened:
1 - stop at breakpoint
2 - get first frame in thread where we stopped
3 - run an expression that causes the program to JIT and run code
4 - run more expressions on the frame from step 2 which was very very luckily
still around inside a shared pointer, yet, not part of the current
thread (a new stack frame object had appeared with the same stack ID and
depth).
We now avoid all such issues and properly keep up to date, or we start
returning errors when the frame doesn't exist and always responds with
invalid answers.
Also fixed the UserSettingsController (not going to rewrite this just yet)
so that it doesn't crash on shutdown. Using weak_ptr's came in real handy to
track when the master controller has already gone away and this allowed me to
pull out the previous NotifyOwnerIsShuttingDown() patch as it is no longer
needed.
llvm-svn: 149231
all RTTI types, and since we don't use RTTI anymore since clang and llvm don't
we don't really need this header file. All shared pointer definitions have
been moved into "lldb-forward.h".
Defined std::tr1::weak_ptr definitions for all of the types that inherit from
enable_shared_from_this() in "lldb-forward.h" in preparation for thread
hardening our public API.
The first in the thread hardening check-ins. First we start with SBThread.
We have issues in our lldb::SB API right now where if you have one object
that is being used by two threads we have a race condition. Consider the
following code:
1 int
2 SBThread::SomeFunction()
3 {
4 int result = -1;
5 if (m_opaque_sp)
6 {
7 result = m_opaque_sp->DoSomething();
8 }
9 return result;
10 }
And now this happens:
Thread 1 enters any SBThread function and checks its m_opaque_sp and is about
to execute the code on line 7 but hasn't yet
Thread 2 gets to run and class sb_thread.Clear() which calls m_opaque_sp.clear()
and clears the contents of the shared pointer member
Thread 1 now crashes when it resumes.
The solution is to use std::tr1::weak_ptr. Now the SBThread class contains a
lldb::ThreadWP (weak pointer to our lldb_private::Thread class) and this
function would look like:
1 int
2 SBThread::SomeFunction()
3 {
4 int result = -1;
5 ThreadSP thread_sp(m_opaque_wp.lock());
6 if (thread_sp)
7 {
8 result = m_opaque_sp->DoSomething();
9 }
10 return result;
11 }
Now we have a solid thread safe API where we get a local copy of our thread
shared pointer from our weak_ptr and then we are guaranteed it can't go away
during our function.
So lldb::SBThread has been thread hardened, more checkins to follow shortly.
llvm-svn: 149218
due to RTTI worries since llvm and clang don't use RTTI, but I was able to
switch back with no issues as far as I can tell. Once the RTTI issue wasn't
an issue, we were looking for a way to properly track weak pointers to objects
to solve some of the threading issues we have been running into which naturally
led us back to std::tr1::weak_ptr. We also wanted the ability to make a shared
pointer from just a pointer, which is also easily solved using the
std::tr1::enable_shared_from_this class.
The main reason for this move back is so we can start properly having weak
references to objects. Currently a lldb_private::Thread class has a refrence
to its parent lldb_private::Process. This doesn't work well when we now hand
out a SBThread object that contains a shared pointer to a lldb_private::Thread
as this SBThread can be held onto by external clients and if they end up
using one of these objects we can easily crash.
So the next task is to start adopting std::tr1::weak_ptr where ever it makes
sense which we can do with lldb_private::Debugger, lldb_private::Target,
lldb_private::Process, lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::StackFrame, and
many more objects now that they are no longer using intrusive ref counted
pointer objects (you can't do std::tr1::weak_ptr functionality with intrusive
pointers).
llvm-svn: 149207
size_t
SBProcess::ReadCStringFromMemory (addr_t addr, void *buf, size_t size, lldb::SBError &error);
uint64_t
SBProcess::ReadUnsignedFromMemory (addr_t addr, uint32_t byte_size, lldb::SBError &error);
lldb::addr_t
SBProcess::ReadPointerFromMemory (addr_t addr, lldb::SBError &error);
These ReadCStringFromMemory() has some SWIG type magic that makes it return the
python string directly and the "buf" is not needed:
error = SBError()
max_cstr_len = 256
cstr = lldb.process.ReadCStringFromMemory (0x1000, max_cstr_len, error)
if error.Success():
....
The other two functions behave as expteced. This will make it easier to get integer values
from the inferior process that are correctly byte swapped. Also for pointers, the correct
pointer byte size will be used.
Also cleaned up a few printf style warnings for the 32 bit lldb build on darwin.
llvm-svn: 146636
will allow us to represent a process/thread ID using a pointer for the OS
plug-ins where they might want to represent the process or thread ID using
the address of the process or thread structure.
llvm-svn: 145644
info for us to attach by pid, or by name and will also allow us to eventually
do a lot more powerful attaches. If you look at the options for the "platform
process list" command, there are many options which we should be able to
specify. This will allow us to do things like "attach to a process named 'tcsh'
that has a parent process ID of 123", or "attach to a process named 'x' which
has an effective user ID of 345".
I finished up the --shell implementation so that it can be used without the
--tty option in "process launch". The "--shell" option now can take an
optional argument which is the path to the shell to use (or a partial name
like "sh" which we will find using the current PATH environment variable).
Modified the Process::Attach to use the new ProcessAttachInfo as the sole
argument and centralized a lot of code that was in the "process attach"
Execute function so that everyone can take advantage of the powerful new
attach functionality.
llvm-svn: 144615
Fixed an issues with the SBType and SBTypeMember classes:
- Fixed SBType to be able to dump itself from python
- Fixed SBType::GetNumberOfFields() to return the correct value for objective C interfaces
- Fixed SBTypeMember to be able to dump itself from python
- Fixed the SBTypeMember ability to get a field offset in bytes (the value
being returned was wrong)
- Added the SBTypeMember ability to get a field offset in bits
Cleaned up a lot of the Stream usage in the SB API files.
llvm-svn: 144493
the --tty option. So you can now get shell expansion and file redirection:
(lldb) process launch --tty --shell -- *.jpg < in.txt > out.txt
Again, the "--tty" is mandatory for now until we hook this up to other
functions. The shell is also currently hard coded to "/bin/bash" and not the
"SHELL" variable. "/bin/tcsh" was causing problems which I need to dig into.
llvm-svn: 144443
on internal only (public API hasn't changed) to simplify the paramter list
to the launch calls down into just one argument. Also all of the argument,
envronment and stdio things are now handled in a much more centralized fashion.

process IDs, and thread IDs, but was mainly needed for for the UserID's for
Types so that DWARF with debug map can work flawlessly. With DWARF in .o files
the type ID was the DIE offset in the DWARF for the .o file which is not
unique across all .o files, so now the SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap class will
make the .o file index part (the high 32 bits) of the unique type identifier
so it can uniquely identify the types.
llvm-svn: 142534
stdarg formats to use __attribute__ format so the compiler can flag

a few were resulting in crashes.
llvm-svn: 140185
This is helping us track down some extra references to ModuleSP objects that
are causing things to get kept around for too long.
Added a module pointer accessor to target and change a lot of code to use
it where it would be more efficient.
"taret delete" can now specify "--clean=1" which will cleanup the global module
list for any orphaned module in the shared module cache which can save memory
and also help track down module reference leaks like we have now.

checking the validity of the shared pointer prior to using it.
Fixed the GDB remote plug-in to once again watch for a reply from the "k"
packet, and fixed the logic to make sure the thread requesting the kill
and the async thread play nice (and very quickly) by synchronizing the
packet sending and reply. I also tweaked some of the shut down packet
("k" kill, "D" detach, and the halt packet) to make sure they do the right
thing.
Fixed "StateType Process::WaitForProcessStopPrivate (...)" to correctly pass
the timeout along to WaitForStateChangedEventsPrivate() and made the function
behave correctly with respect to timing out.
Added separate STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR support to debugserver. Also added
the start of being able to set the working directory for the inferior process.
llvm-svn: 124049
don't crash if we disable logging when some code already has a copy of the
logger. Prior to this fix, logs were handed out as pointers and if they were
held onto while a log got disabled, then it could cause a crash. Now all logs
are handed out as shared pointers so this problem shouldn't happen anymore.
We are also using our new shared pointers that put the shared pointer count
and the object into the same allocation for a tad better performance.
llvm-svn: 118319
adding support into lldb_private::Process:
virtual uint32_t
lldb_private::Process::LoadImage (const FileSpec &image_spec,
Error &error);
virtual Error
lldb_private::Process::UnloadImage (uint32_t image_token);
There is a default implementation that should work for both linux and MacOSX.
This ability has also been exported through the SBProcess API:
uint32_t
lldb::SBProcess::LoadImage (lldb::SBFileSpec &image_spec,
lldb::SBError &error);
lldb::SBError
lldb::SBProcess::UnloadImage (uint32_t image_token);
Modified the DynamicLoader plug-in interface to require it to be able to
tell us if it is currently possible to load/unload a shared library:
virtual lldb_private::Error
DynamicLoader::CanLoadImage () = 0;
This way the dynamic loader plug-ins are allows to veto whether we can
currently load a shared library since the dynamic loader might know if it is
currenlty loading/unloading shared libraries. It might also know about the
current host system and know where to check to make sure runtime or malloc
locks are currently being held.
Modified the expression parser to have ClangUserExpression::Evaluate() be
the one that causes the dynamic checkers to be loaded instead of other code
that shouldn't have to worry about it.
llvm-svn: 118227
than just the entire log channel.
Add checks, where appropriate, to make sure a log channel/category has
not been disabled before attempting to write to it.

to it when looking at logs.
llvm-svn: 117641
- Try to reduce logging to one line per function call instead of tw
- Put all arguments & their values into log for calls
- Add 'this' parameter information to function call logging, making it show the appropriate
internal pointer (this.obj, this.sp, this.ap...)
- Clean up some return values
- Remove logging of constructors that construct empty objects
- Change '==>' to '=>' for showing result values...
- Fix various minor bugs
- Add some protected 'get' functions to help getting the internal pointers for the 'this' arguments...

it logs the function calls, their arguments and the return values. This is not
complete or polished, but I am committing it now, at the request of someone who
really wants to use it, even though it's not really done. It currently does not
attempt to log all the functions, just the most important ones. I will be
making further adjustments to the API logging code over the next few days/weeks.
(Suggestions for improvements are welcome).
Update the Python build scripts to re-build the swig C++ file whenever
the python-extensions.swig file is modified.

tricks to get types to resolve. I did this by correctly including the correct
files: stdint.h and all lldb-*.h files first before including the API files.
This allowed me to remove all of the hacks that were in the lldb.swig file
and it also allows all of the #defines in lldb-defines.h and enumerations
in lldb-enumerations.h to appear in the lldb.py module. This will make the
python script code a lot more readable.
Cleaned up the "process launch" command to not execute a "process continue"
command, it now just does what it should have with the internal API calls
instead of executing another command line command.
Made the lldb_private::Process set the state to launching and attaching if
WillLaunch/WillAttach return no error respectively.

into python-extensions.swig, which gets included into lldb.swig, and
adds them back into the classes when swig generates it's C++ file. This

Also fixed a small bug in the copy constructor for SBSymbolContext.

to the debugger from GUI windows. Previously there was one global debugger
instance that could be accessed that had its own command interpreter and
current state (current target/process/thread/frame). When a GUI debugger
was attached, if it opened more than one window that each had a console
window, there were issues where the last one to setup the global debugger
object won and got control of the debugger.
To avoid this we now create instances of the lldb_private::Debugger that each
has its own state:
- target list for targets the debugger instance owns
- current process/thread/frame
- its own command interpreter
- its own input, output and error file handles to avoid conflicts
- its own input reader stack
So now clients should call:
SBDebugger::Initialize(); // (static function)
SBDebugger debugger (SBDebugger::Create());
// Use which ever file handles you wish
debugger.SetErrorFileHandle (stderr, false);
debugger.SetOutputFileHandle (stdout, false);
debugger.SetInputFileHandle (stdin, true);
// main loop
SBDebugger::Terminate(); // (static function)
SBDebugger::Initialize() and SBDebugger::Terminate() are ref counted to
ensure nothing gets destroyed too early when multiple clients might be
attached.
Cleaned up the command interpreter and the CommandObject and all subclasses
to take more appropriate arguments.
