shafik 25bbceb047 [LLDB] Fix how ValueObjectChild handles bit-fields stored in a Scalar in UpdateValue()
When bit-field data was stored in a Scalar in ValueObjectChild during UpdateValue()
it was extracting the bit-field value. Later on in lldb_private::DumpDataExtractor(…)
we were again attempting to extract the bit-field. Which would then not obtain the
correct value. This will remove the extra extraction in UpdateValue().
We hit this specific case when values are passed in registers, which we could only
reproduce in an optimized build.

Raphael Isemann 808142876c [lldb][NFC] Fix all formatting errors in .cpp file headers
Summary:
A *.cpp file header in LLDB (and in LLDB) should like this:
```
//===-- TestUtilities.cpp -------------------------------------------------===//
```
However in LLDB most of our source files have arbitrary changes to this format and
these changes are spreading through LLDB as folks usually just use the existing
source files as templates for their new files (most notably the unnecessary
editor language indicator `-*- C++ -*-` is spreading and in every review
someone is pointing out that this is wrong, resulting in people pointing out that this
is done in the same way in other files).

This patch removes most of these inconsistencies including the editor language indicators,
all the different missing/additional '-' characters, files that center the file name, missing
trailing `===//` (mostly caused by clang-format breaking the line).

Adrian Prantl f81d6fe75c Adjust a ValueObjectChild's offset when the child is a bitfield
If a bitfield doesn't fit into the child_byte_size'd window at
child_byte_offset, move the window forward until it fits.  The problem
here is that Value has no notion of bitfields and thus the Value's
DataExtractor is sized like the bitfields CompilerType; a sequence of
bitfields, however, can be larger than their underlying type.

This was not in the big-endian-derived DWARF 2 bitfield attributes
because their offsets were counted from the end of the window, so they
always fit.

Adrian Prantl 0e4c482124 Pass ConstString by value (NFC)
My apologies for the large patch. With the exception of ConstString.h
itself it was entirely produced by sed.

ConstString has exactly one const char * data member, so passing a
ConstString by reference is not any more efficient than copying it by
value. In both cases a single pointer is passed. But passing it by
value makes it harder to accidentally return the address of a local
object.

Chandler Carruth 2946cd7010 Update the file headers across all of the LLVM projects in the monorepo
to reflect the new license.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.

Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Adrian Prantl eca07c592a Fix (and improve) the support for C99 variable length array types
Clang recently improved its DWARF support for C VLA types. The DWARF
now looks like this:

0x00000051:         DW_TAG_variable [4]
                     DW_AT_location( fbreg -32 )
                     DW_AT_name( "__vla_expr" )
                     DW_AT_type( {0x000000d3} ( long unsigned int ) )
                     DW_AT_artificial( true )
...
0x000000da:     DW_TAG_array_type [10] *
                 DW_AT_type( {0x000000cc} ( int ) )

0x000000df:         DW_TAG_subrange_type [11]
                     DW_AT_type( {0x000000e9} ( __ARRAY_SIZE_TYPE__ ) )
                     DW_AT_count( {0x00000051} )

Without this patch LLDB will naively interpret the DIE offset 0x51 as
the static size of the array, which is clearly wrong.  This patch
extends ValueObject::GetNumChildren to query the dynamic properties of
incomplete array types.

See the testcase for an example:

   4   int foo(int a) {
   5   	     int vla[a];
   6   	       for (int i = 0; i < a; ++i)
   7   	           vla[i] = i;
   8
-> 9            pause(); // break here
   10  		return vla[a-1];
   11   }

(lldb) fr v vla
(int []) vla = ([0] = 0, [1] = 1, [2] = 2, [3] = 3)
(lldb) quit

This renames the LLDB error class to Status, as discussed
on the lldb-dev mailing list.

A change of this magnitude cannot easily be done without
find and replace, but that has potential to catch unwanted
occurrences of common strings such as "Error".  Every effort
was made to find all the obvious things such as the word "Error"
appearing in a string, etc, but it's possible there are still
some lingering occurences left around.  Hopefully nothing too
serious.

because all the includes from Core to that project were dead
includes anyway.  In places where some files in other projects
were only compiling due to a transitive include from another
header, fixups have been made so that those files also include
the header they need.  Tested on Windows and Linux, and plan
to address failures on OSX and FreeBSD after watching the

Kate Stone b9c1b51e45 *** This commit represents a complete reformatting of the LLDB source code
*** to conform to clang-format’s LLVM style.  This kind of mass change has
*** two obvious implications:

Firstly, merging this particular commit into a downstream fork may be a huge
effort.  Alternatively, it may be worth merging all changes up to this commit,
performing the same reformatting operation locally, and then discarding the
merge for this particular commit.  The commands used to accomplish this
reformatting were as follows (with current working directory as the root of
the repository):

    find . \( -iname "*.c" -or -iname "*.cpp" -or -iname "*.h" -or -iname "*.mm" \) -exec clang-format -i {} +
    find . -iname "*.py" -exec autopep8 --in-place --aggressive --aggressive {} + ;

The version of clang-format used was 3.9.0, and autopep8 was 1.2.4.

Secondly, “blame” style tools will generally point to this commit instead of
a meaningful prior commit.  There are alternatives available that will attempt
to look through this change and find the appropriate prior commit.  YMMV.

Enrico Granata dc62ffd37b Add a way for source languages to "mark" ValueObjects with language-specific flags
In this way, when a language needs to tell itself things that are not bound to a type but to a value (imagine a base-class relation, this is not about the type, but about the ValueObject), it can do so in a clean and general fashion

The interpretation of the values of the flags is, of course, up to the language that owns the value (the value object's runtime language, that is)

Siva Chandra 9ac7a6c51f [SBValue] Add a method GetNumChildren(uint32_t max)
Summary:
Along with this, support for an optional argument to the "num_children"
method of a Python synthetic child provider has also been added. These have
been added with the following use case in mind:

Synthetic child providers currently have a method "has_children" and
"num_children". While the former is good enough to know if there are
children, it does not give any insight into how many children there are.
Though the latter serves this purpose, calculating the number for children
of a data structure could be an O(N) operation if the data structure has N
children. The new method added in this change provide a middle ground.
One can call GetNumChildren(K) to know if a child exists at an index K
which can be as large as the callers tolerance can be. If the caller wants
to know about children beyond K, it can make an other call with 2K. If the
synthetic child provider maintains state about it counting till K
previosly, then the next call is only an O(K) operation. Infact, all
calls made progressively with steps of K will be O(K) operations.

Greg Clayton 99558cc424 Final bit of type system cleanup that abstracts declaration contexts into lldb_private::CompilerDeclContext and renames ClangType to CompilerType in many accessors and functions.
Create a new "lldb_private::CompilerDeclContext" class that will replace all direct uses of "clang::DeclContext" when used in compiler agnostic code, yet still allow for conversion to clang::DeclContext subclasses by clang specific code. This completes the abstraction of type parsing by removing all "clang::" references from the SymbolFileDWARF. The new "lldb_private::CompilerDeclContext" class abstracts decl contexts found in compiler type systems so they can be used in internal API calls. The TypeSystem is required to support CompilerDeclContexts with new pure virtual functions that start with "DeclContext" in the member function names. Converted all code that used lldb_private::ClangNamespaceDecl over to use the new CompilerDeclContext class and removed the ClangNamespaceDecl.cpp and ClangNamespaceDecl.h files.

Removed direct use of clang APIs from SBType and now use the abstract type systems to correctly explore types.

Bulk renames for things that used to return a ClangASTType which is now CompilerType:

    "Type::GetClangFullType()" to "Type::GetFullCompilerType()"
    "Type::GetClangLayoutType()" to "Type::GetLayoutCompilerType()"
    "Type::GetClangForwardType()" to "Type::GetForwardCompilerType()"
    "Value::GetClangType()" to "Value::GetCompilerType()"
    "Value::SetClangType (const CompilerType &)" to "Value::SetCompilerType (const CompilerType &)"
    "ValueObject::GetClangType ()" to "ValueObject::GetCompilerType()"

Enrico Granata 636cd262d6 Fix an issue where LLDB would run out of stack space trying to decide if a deeply nested child can be updated in the face of an invalid execution context
The issue is that a child can't really ask the root object, since this decision could actually hinge on whether a dynamic and/or synthetic value is present

2014-10-21 20:52:14 +00:00
Enrico Granata e8daa2f843 Introduce the concept of a "display name" for types
Rationale:
Pretty simply, the idea is that sometimes type names are way too long and contain way too many details for the average developer to care about. For instance, a plain ol' vector of int might be shown as
std::__1::vector<int, std::__1::allocator<....
rather than the much simpler std::vector<int> form, which is what most developers would actually type in their code

Proposed solution:
Introduce a notion of "display name" and a corresponding API GetDisplayTypeName() to return such a crafted for visual representation type name
Obviously, the display name and the fully qualified (or "true") name are not necessarily the same - that's the whole point
LLDB could choose to pick the "display name" as its one true notion of a type name, and if somebody really needs the fully qualified version of it, let them deal with the problem
Or, LLDB could rename what it currently calls the "type name" to be the "display name", and add new APIs for the fully qualified name, making the display name the default choice

The choice that I am making here is that the type name will keep meaning the same, and people who want a type name suited for display will explicitly ask for one
It is the less risky/disruptive choice - and it should eventually make it fairly obvious when someone is asking for the wrong type

Caveats:
- for now, GetDisplayTypeName() == GetTypeName(), there is no logic to produce customized display type names yet.
- while the fully-qualified type name is still the main key to the kingdom of data formatters, if we start showing custom names to people, those should match formatters

Greg Clayton 57ee306789 Huge change to clean up types.
A long time ago we start with clang types that were created by the symbol files and there were many functions in lldb_private::ClangASTContext that helped. Later we create ClangASTType which contains a clang::ASTContext and an opauque QualType, but we didn't switch over to fully using it. There were a lot of places where we would pass around a raw clang_type_t and also pass along a clang::ASTContext separately. This left room for error.

This checkin change all type code over to use ClangASTType everywhere and I cleaned up the interfaces quite a bit. Any code that was in ClangASTContext that was type related, was moved over into ClangASTType. All code that used these types was switched over to use all of the new goodness.

Enrico Granata 4873e52733 <rdar://problem/13623698>
This patch fixes the issue that we were using the C stack as a measure of depth of ValueObject hierarchies, in the sense that we were assuming that recursive ValueObject operations would never be deeper than the stack allows.
This assumption is easy to prove wrong, however.
For instance, after ~10k runs through this loop:
struct node
{
	int value;
	node* child;
	node (int x)
	{
		value = x;
		child = nullptr;
	}
};

int main ()
{
	node root(1);
	node* ptr = &root;
	int j = 2;
	while (1)
	{
		ptr->child = new node(j++);
		ptr = ptr->child;
	}
	return 0;
}

the deepmost child object will be deeper than the stack on most architectures, and we would be unable to display it

This checkin fixes the issue by introducing a notion of root of ValueObject hierarchies.
In a couple cases, we have to use an iterative algorithm instead of going to the root because we want to allow deeper customizations (e.g. formats, dynamic values).
While the patch passes our test suite without regressions, it is a good idea to keep eyes open for any unexpected behavior (recursion can be subtle..)
Also, I am hesitant to introduce a test case since failing at this will not just be marked as an "F", but most definitely crash LLDB.

Greg Clayton c7bece56fa <rdar://problem/13069948>
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.

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.

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.

Sean Callanan 7277284f87 Added support for looking up the complete type for
Objective-C classes.  This allows LLDB to find
ivars declared in class extensions in modules other
than where the debugger is currently stopped (we
already supported this when the debugger was
stopped in the same module as the definition).

This involved the following main changes:

- The ObjCLanguageRuntime now knows how to hunt
  for the authoritative version of an Objective-C
  type.  It looks for the symbol indicating a
  definition, and then gets the type from the
  module containing that symbol.

- ValueObjects now report their type with a
  potential override, and the override is set if
  the type of the ValueObject is an Objective-C
  class or pointer type that is defined somewhere
  other than the original reported type.  This
  means that "frame variable" will always use the
  complete type if one is available.

- The ClangASTSource now looks for the complete
  type when looking for ivars.  This means that
  "expr" will always use the complete type if one
  is available.

- I added a testcase that verifies that both
  "frame variable" and "expr" work.

Greg Clayton cc4d0146b4 This checking is part one of trying to add some threading safety to our
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());

Greg Clayton 86edbf41d1 Cleaned up many error codes. For any who is filling in error strings into
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.

Enrico Granata 9128ee2f7a Redesign of the interaction between Python and frozen objects:
- introduced two new classes ValueObjectConstResultChild and ValueObjectConstResultImpl: the first one is a ValueObjectChild obtained from
   a ValueObjectConstResult, the second is a common implementation backend for VOCR and VOCRCh of method calls meant to read through pointers stored
   in frozen objects ; now such reads transparently move from host to target as required
 - as a consequence of the above, removed code that made target-memory copies of expression results in several places throughout LLDB, and also
   removed code that enabled to recognize an expression result VO as such
 - introduced a new GetPointeeData() method in ValueObject that lets you read a given amount of objects of type T from a VO
   representing a T* or T[], and doing dereferences transparently
   in private layer it returns a DataExtractor ; in public layer it returns an instance of a newly created lldb::SBData
 - as GetPointeeData() does the right thing for both frozen and non-frozen ValueObject's, reimplemented ReadPointedString() to use it
   en lieu of doing the raw read itself
 - introduced a new GetData() method in ValueObject that lets you get a copy of the data that backs the ValueObject (for pointers,
   this returns the address without any previous dereferencing steps ; for arrays it actually reads the whole chunk of memory)
   in public layer this returns an SBData, just like GetPointeeData()
 - introduced a new CreateValueFromData() method in SBValue that lets you create a new SBValue from a chunk of data wrapped in an SBData
   the limitation to remember for this kind of SBValue is that they have no address: extracting the address-of for these objects (with any
   of GetAddress(), GetLoadAddress() and AddressOf()) will return invalid values
 - added several tests to check that "p"-ing objects (STL classes, char* and char[]) will do the right thing
Solved a bug where global pointers to global variables were not dereferenced correctly for display
New target setting "max-string-summary-length" gives the maximum number of characters to show in a string when summarizing it, instead of the hardcoded 128
Solved a bug where the summary for char[] and char* would not be shown if the ValueObject's were dumped via the "p" command
Removed m_pointers_point_to_load_addrs from ValueObject. Introduced a new m_address_type_of_children, which each ValueObject can set to tell the address type
 of any pointers and/or references it creates. In the current codebase, this is load address most of the time (the only notable exception being file
 addresses that generate file address children UNLESS we have a live process)
Updated help text for summary-string
Fixed an issue in STL formatters where std::stlcontainer::iterator would match the container's synthetic children providers
Edited the syntax and help for some commands to have proper argument types

Greg Clayton 6fdfc7e443 Fixed an issue where a variable that was a pointer whose
location was in a register would not be able to dereference 
children when displaying "*var" or the derefence of the variable.

Jim Ingham 16e0c68627 Make ValueObject::SetValueFromCString work correctly.
Also change the SourceInitFile to look for .lldb-<APPNAME> and source that
preferentially if it exists.
Also made the breakpoint site report its address as well as its breakpoint number
when it gets hit and can't find any the associated locations (usually because the
breakpoint got disabled or deleted programmatically between the time it was hit
and reported.)
Changed ThreadPlanCallFunction to initialize the ivar m_func in the initializers of the
constructor, rather than waiting to initialize till later on in the function.
Fixed a bug where if you make an SBError and the ask it Success, it returns false.
Fixed ValueObject::ResolveValue so that it resolves a temporary value, rather than
overwriting the one in the value object.

Enrico Granata c3e320a7a0 Fixed a bug where a variable could not be formatted in a summary if its datatype already had a custom format
Fixed a bug where Objective-C variables coming out of the expression parser could crash the Python synthetic providers:
 - expression parser output has a "frozen data" component, which is a byte-exact copy of the value (in host memory),
   if trying to read into memory based on the host address, LLDB would crash. we are now passing the correct (target)
   pointer to the Python code
Objective-C "id" variables are now formatted according to their dynamic type, if the -d option to frame variable is used:
 - Code based on the Objective-C 2.0 runtime is used to obtain this information without running code on the target

Greg Clayton 644247c1dc Added "target variable" command that allows introspection of global
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.

Greg Clayton e305594277 Centralize all of the type name code so that we always strip the leading
"struct ", "class ", and "union " from the start of any type names that are
extracted from clang QualType objects. I had to fix test suite cases that
were expecting the struct/union/class prefix to be there.

Jim Ingham 78a685aa2d Add support for "dynamic values" for C++ classes. This currently only works for "frame var" and for the
expressions that are simple enough to get passed to the "frame var" underpinnings.  The parser code will
have to be changed to also query for the dynamic types & offsets as it is looking up variables.

The behavior of "frame var" is controlled in two ways.  You can pass "-d {true/false} to the frame var
command to get the dynamic or static value of the variables you are printing.

There's also a general setting:

target.prefer-dynamic-value (boolean) = 'true'

which is consulted if you call "frame var" without supplying a value for the -d option.

Jim Ingham 6035b67d2c Convert ValueObject to explicitly maintain the Execution Context in which they were created, and then use that when they update themselves. That means all the ValueObject evaluate me type functions that used to require a Frame object now do not. I didn't remove the SBValue API's that take this now useless frame, but I added ones that don't require the frame, and marked the SBFrame taking ones as deprecated.
