Now that VS2022 is on general release, LLVM is expected to build on VS2017, VS2019 and VS2022, which is proving hazardous to maintain due to changes in behaviour including preprocessor and constexpr changes. Plus of the few developers that work with VS, many have already moved to VS2019/22.
This patch proposes to raise the minimum supported version to VS2019 (16.x) - I've made the hard limit 16.0 or later, with the soft limit VS2019 16.7 - older versions of VS2019 are "allowed" (at your own risk) via the LLVM_FORCE_USE_OLD_TOOLCHAIN cmake flag.

This test is completely nondeterministic, environment-dependent and does

In the rush to get the bot green, I did not realize I was building the
file with -gsplit-dwarf, and therefore the yaml ended up referring to a
file I did not check it.
This rebuilds the file without split dwarf.
Currently, running the test suite with LLVM_ENABLE_EXPENSIVE_CHECKS=On
causes a couple of tests to fail. This happens because they expect a
certain order of variables (all of them happen to use the "target
variable" command, but other lookup functions should suffer from the
same issues), all of which have the same name. Sort algorithms often
preserve the order of equivalent elements (in this case the entries in
the NameToDIE map), but that not guaranteed, and
LLVM_ENABLE_EXPENSIVE_CHECKS stresses that by pre-shuffling all inputs
before sorting.
While this could easily be fixed by relaxing the test expectations,
having a deterministic output seems like a worthwhile goal,
particularly, as this could have bigger consequences than just a
different print order -- in some cases we just pick the first entry that
we find, whatever that is. Therefore this patch makes the sort
deterministic by introducing another sort key -- UniqueCString::Sort
gets a value comparator functor, which can be used to sort elements with
the same name -- in the DWARF case we use DIERef::operator<, which
roughly equals the order in which the entries appear in the debug info,
and matches the current "accidental" order.
Using a extra functor seemed preferable to using stable_sort, as the
latter allocates extra O(n) of temporary memory.
I observed no difference in debug info parsing speed with this patch
applied.

This adds an option --show-tags to "memory read".
(lldb) memory read mte_buf mte_buf+32 -f "x" -s8 --show-tags
0x900fffff7ff8000: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 (tag: 0x0)
0x900fffff7ff8010: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 (tag: 0x1)
Tags are printed on the end of each line, if that
line has any tags associated with it. Meaning that
untagged memory output is unchanged.
Tags are printed based on the granule(s) of memory that
a line covers. So you may have lines with 1 tag, with many
tags, no tags or partially tagged lines.
In the case of partially tagged lines, untagged granules
will show "<no tag>" so that the ordering is obvious.
For example, a line that covers 2 granules where the first
is not tagged:
(lldb) memory read mte_buf-16 mte_buf+16 -l32 -f"x" --show-tags
0x900fffff7ff7ff0: 0x00000000 <...> (tags: <no tag> 0x0)
Untagged lines will just not have the "(tags: ..." at all.
Though they may be part of a larger output that does have
some tagged lines.
To do this I've extended DumpDataExtractor to also print
memory tags where it has a valid execution context and
is asked to print them.
There are no special alignment requirements, simply
use "memory read" as usual. All alignment is handled
in DumpDataExtractor.
We use MakeTaggedRanges to find all the tagged memory
in the current dump, then read all that into a MemoryTagMap.
The tag map is populated once in DumpDataExtractor and re-used
for each subsequently printed line (or recursive call of
DumpDataExtractor, which some formats do).

The tag map holds a sparse set of memory tags and allows
you to query ranges for tags.
Granules that do not have tags will be set to llvm::None.
to keep the ordering intact. If there are no tags for the
requested range we'll just return an empty result so that
callers don't need to check that all values are llvm::None.
This will be combined with MemoryTagManager's MakeTaggedRanges:
* MakeTaggedRanges
* Read from all those ranges
* Insert the results into the tag map
* Give the tag map to whatever needs to print tags
Which in this case will be "memory read"/DumpDataExtractor.

This is to be used when you want to know what subranges
of a larger range have memory tagging. Like MakeTaggedRange
but memory without tags is skipped and you get a list of ranges back.
Will be used later by DumpDataExtractor to show memory tags.
MakeTaggedRanges assumes that the memory regions it is
given are sorted in ascending order and do not overlap.
For the current use case where you get regions from
GetMemoryRegions and are on some Linux like OS, this is
reasonable to assume.
I've used asserts to check those conditions. In future
any API binding will check them up front to prevent a crash.

This patch makes use of c++ type checking and scoped enums to make
logging statements shorter and harder to misuse.
Defines like LIBLLDB_LOG_PROCESS are replaces with LLDBLog::Process.
Because it now carries type information we do not need to worry about
matching a specific enum value with the right getter function -- the
compiler will now do that for us.
The main entry point for the logging machinery becomes the GetLog
(template) function, which will obtain the correct Log object based on
the enum type. It achieves this through another template function
(LogChannelFor<T>), which must be specialized for each type, and should
return the appropriate channel object.
This patch also removes the ability to log a message if multiple
categories are enabled simultaneously as it was unused and confusing.
This patch does not actually remove any of the existing interfaces. The
defines and log retrieval functions are left around as wrappers around
the new interfaces. They will be removed in follow-up patch.

When listing all the Scripted Threads of a ScriptedProcess, we can see that all
have the thread index set to 1. This is caused by the lldb_private::Thread
constructor, which sets the m_index_id member using the provided thread id `tid`.
Because the call to the super constructor is done before instantiating
the `ScriptedThreadInterface`, lldb can't fetch the thread id from the
script instance, so it uses `LLDB_INVALID_THREAD_ID` instead.
To mitigate this, this patch takes advantage of the `ScriptedThread::Create`
fallible constructor idiom to defer calling the `ScriptedThread` constructor
(and the `Thread` super constructor with it), until we can fetch a valid
thread id `tid` from the `ScriptedThreadInterface`.

2. Removing unused headers in .cpp files. No impact expected.

+
#define Py_INCREF(op) ( \

This test for anonymous unions seems off. It tests the following:
```
union {

struct {

```
Both are anonymous types, but the first does not declare a variable and the
second one does. The test then checks that `frame var` can directly access the
fields of the anonymous union, but can't directly access the fields of the
anonymous struct variable.
The second test, to directly access the members of the struct variable, seems
pointless as similar code would not compile. A demonstration:
```
struct {
int a;
int z;
} a_z{23, 45};
printf("%d\n", a_z.a); // fine
printf("%d\n", a); // this does not compile

Since we can't directly access the fields in code, I'm not sure there's a

Currently, when connecting to a remote iOS device from the command line
on Apple Silicon, we end up using the host platform (PlatfromMacOSX)
instead of remote-ios (PlatformRemoteiOS). This happens because
PlatfromMacOSX includes arm64-apple-ios and arm64e-apple-ios as
compatible architectures, presumably to support debugging iOS Apps on
Apple Silicon [1].
This is a problem for debugging remote ios devices, because the host
platform doesn't look for an expanded shared cache on disk and as a
result we end up reading everything from memory, incurring a significant
performance hit.
The crux of this patch is to make PlatfromMacOSX *not* compatible with
arm64(e)-apple-ios. This also means that we now use remote-ios
(PlatformRemoteiOS) as the platform for debugging iOS apps on Apple
Silicon. This has the (unintended) side effect that unlike we do for the
host platform, we no longer check our local shared cache, and incur a
performance hit on debugging these apps.
To avoid that, PlatformRemoteiOS now also check the local cache to
support this use case, which is cheap enough to do unconditionally for
PlatformRemoteiOS.
