Extend vCont function to support resuming a process with an arbitrary

Remove the ReadTid() method that was only used by Handle_vCont(),

Implement the support for the vKill packet. This is the modern packet
used by the GDB Remote Serial Protocol to kill one of the debugged
processes. Unlike the `k` packet, it has well-defined semantics.
The `vKill` packet takes the PID of the process to kill, and always
replies with an `OK` reply (rather than the exit status, as LLGS does
for `k` packets at the moment). Additionally, unlike the `k` packet
it does not cause the connection to be terminated once the last process
is killed — the client needs to close it explicitly.

Implement the support for %Stop asynchronous notification packet format
in LLGS. This does not implement full support for non-stop mode for
threaded programs -- process plugins continue stopping all threads
on every event. However, it will be used to implement asynchronous
events in multiprocess debugging.
The non-stop protocol is enabled using QNonStop packet. When it is
enabled, the server uses notification protocol instead of regular stop
replies. Since all threads are always stopped, notifications are always
generated for all active threads and copied into stop notification
queue.
If the queue was empty, the initial asynchronous %Stop notification
is sent to the client immediately. The client needs to (eventually)
acknowledge the notification by sending the vStopped packet, in which
case it is popped from the queue and the stop reason for the next thread
is reported. This continues until notification queue is empty again,
in which case an OK reply is sent.
Asychronous notifications are also used for vAttach results and program
exits. The `?` packet uses a hybrid approach -- it returns the first
stop reason synchronously, and exposes the stop reasons for remaining
threads via vStopped queue.
The change includes a test case for a program generating a segfault
on 3 threads. The server is expected to generate a stop notification
for the segfaulting thread, along with the notifications for the other
running threads (with "no stop reason"). This verifies that the stop
reasons are correctly reported for all threads, and that notification
queue works.

should not receive as exceptions (some will get converted to BSD
signals instead). This is really the only stable way to ensure that
a Mach exception gets converted to it's equivalent BSD signal. For
programs that rely on BSD signal handlers, this has to happen or you
can't even get the program to invoke the signal handler when under
the debugger.
This builds on a previous solution to this problem which required you
start debugserver with the -U flag. This was not very discoverable
and required lldb be the one to launch debugserver, which is not always
the case.

Unlike the latter, it tranmits command-line arguments without redundant

Make qLaunchSuccess not obligatory when using vRun. It is not

Protocol-wise, a new qSaveCore packet is introduced. It accepts zero
or more semicolon-separated key:value options, invokes the core dump
and returns a key:value response. Currently the only option supported
is "path-hint", and the return value contains the "path" actually used.
The support for the feature is exposed via qSaveCore qSupported feature.

This is implemented using the QMemTags packet, as specified
by GDB in:
https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/General-Query-Packets.html#General-Query-Packets
(recall that qMemTags was previously added to read tags)
On receipt of a valid packet lldb-server will:
* align the given address and length to granules
(most of the time lldb will have already done this
but the specification doesn't guarantee it)
* Repeat the supplied tags as many times as needed to cover
the range. (if tags > range we just use as many as needed)
* Call ptrace POKEMTETAGS to write the tags.
The ptrace step will loop just like the tag read does,
until all tags are written or we get an error.
Meaning that if ptrace succeeds it could be a partial write.
So we call it again and if we then get an error, return an error to
lldb.
We are not going to attempt to restore tags after a partial
write followed by an error. This matches the behaviour of the
existing memory writes.
The lldb-server tests have been extended to include read and
write in the same test file. With some updated function names
since "qMemTags" vs "QMemTags" isn't very clear when they're
next to each other.

This adds memory tag reading using the new "qMemTags"
packet and ptrace on AArch64 Linux.
This new packet is following the one used by GDB.
(https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/General-Query-Packets.html)
On AArch64 Linux we use ptrace's PEEKMTETAGS to read
tags and we assume that lldb has already checked that the
memory region actually has tagging enabled.
We do not assume that lldb has expanded the requested range
to granules and expand it again to be sure.
(although lldb will be sending aligned ranges because it happens
to need them client side anyway)
Also we don't assume untagged addresses. So for AArch64 we'll
remove the top byte before using them. (the top byte includes
MTE and other non address data)
To do the ptrace read NativeProcessLinux will ask the native
register context for a memory tag manager based on the
type in the packet. This also gives you the ptrace numbers you need.
(it's called a register context but it also has non register data,
so it saves adding another per platform sub class)
The only supported platform for this is AArch64 Linux and the only
supported tag type is MTE allocation tags. Anything else will
error.
Ptrace can return a partial result but for lldb-server we will
be treating that as an error. To succeed we need to get all the tags
we expect.
(Note that the protocol leaves room for logical tags to be
read via qMemTags but this is not going to be implemented for lldb
at this time.)

This implements the interactive trace start and stop methods.
This diff ended up being much larger than I anticipated because, by doing it, I found that I had implemented in the beginning many things in a non optimal way. In any case, the code is much better now.
There's a lot of boilerplate code due to the gdb-remote protocol, but the main changes are:
- New tracing packets: jLLDBTraceStop, jLLDBTraceStart, jLLDBTraceGetBinaryData. The gdb-remote packet definitions are quite comprehensive.
- Implementation of the "process trace start|stop" and "thread trace start|stop" commands.
- Implementaiton of an API in Trace.h to interact with live traces.
- Created an IntelPTDecoder for live threads, that use the debugger's stop id as checkpoint for its internal cache.
- Added a functionality to stop the process in case "process tracing" is enabled and a new thread can't traced.
- Added tests

Depends on D89283.
The goal of this packet (jTraceGetSupportedType) is to be able to query the gdb-server for the tracing technology that can work for the current debuggeer, which can make the user experience simpler but allowing the user to simply type
thread trace start
to start tracing the current thread without even telling the debugger to use "intel-pt", for example. Similarly, `thread trace start [args...]` would accept args beloging to the working trace type.
Also, if the user typed
help thread trace start
We could directly show the help information of the trace type that is supported for the target, or mention instead that no tracing is supported, if that's the case.

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

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D73258
Summary:
This is the first of a few patches I have to improve the performance of dynamic module loading on Android.
In this first diff I'll describe the context of my main motivation and will then link to it in the other diffs to avoid repeating myself.
## Motivation
I have a few scenarios where opening a specific feature on an Android app takes around 40s when lldb is attached to it. The reason for that is because 40 modules are dynamicly loaded at that point in time and each one of them is taking ~1s.
## The problem
To learn about new modules we have a breakpoint on a linker function that is called twice whenever a module is loaded. One time just before it's loaded (so lldb can check which modules are loaded) and another right after it's loaded (so lldb can check again which ones are loaded and calculate the diference).
It's figuring out which modules are loaded that is taking quite some time. This is currently done by traversing the linked list of loaded shared libraries that the linker maintains in memory. Each item in the linked list requires its own `x` packet sent to the gdb server (this is android so the network also plays a part). In my scenario there are 400+ loaded libraries and even though we read 0x800 worth of bytes at a time we still make ~180 requests that end up taking 150-200ms.
We also do this twice, once before the module is loaded (state = eAdd) and another right after (state = eConsistent) which easly adds up to ~400ms per module.
## A solution
**Implement `xfer:libraries-svr4` in lldb-server:**
I noticed in the code that loads the new modules that it had support for the `xfer:libraries-svr4` packet (added ~4 years ago to support the ds2 debug server) but we didn't support it in lldb-server. This single packet returns an xml list of all the loaded modules by the process. The advantage is that there's no more need to make 180 requests to read the linked list. Additionally this new requests takes around 10ms.
**More efficient usage of the `xfer:libraries-svr4` packet in lldb:**
When `xfer:libraries-svr4` is available the Process class has a `LoadModules` function that requests this packet and then loads or unloads modules based on the current list of loaded modules by the process.
This is the function that is used by the DYLDRendezvous class to get the list of loaded modules before and after the module is loaded. However, this is really not needed since the LoadModules function already loaded or unloaded the modules accordingly. I changed this strategy to call LoadModules only once (after the process has loaded the module).
**Bugs**
I found a few issues in lldb while implementing this and have submitted independent patches for them.
I tried to devide this into multiple logical patches to make it easier to review and discuss.
## Tests
I wanted to put these set of diffs up before having all the tests up and running to start having them reviewed from a techical point of view. I'm also having some trouble making the tests running on linux so I need more time to make that happen.
# This diff
The `xfer` packages follow the same protocol, they are requested with `xfer:<object>:<read|write>:<annex>:<offset,length>` and a return that starts with `l` or `m` depending if the offset and length covers the entire data or not. Before implementing the `xfer:libraries-svr4` I refactored the `xfer:auxv` to generically handle xfer packets so we can easly add new ones.
The overall structure of the function ends up being:
* Parse the packet into its components: object, offset etc.
* Depending on the object do its own logic to generate the data.
* Return the data based on its size, the requested offset and length.

application has many (over a hundred) modules, and the communication link has a non-negligible
latency. This functionality is accessed by ProcessGdbRemote::PrefetchModuleSpecs(), which does
the caching. GetModuleSpecs() is modified to first consult the cache before asking the remote
stub. PrefetchModuleSpecs is currently only called from POSIX-DYLD dynamic loader plugin, after
it reads the list of modules from the inferior memory, but other uses are possible.

*** 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.

RNBRemote::HandlePacket_stop_process (const char *p)
{
if (!DNBProcessInterrupt(m_ctx.ProcessID()))
HandlePacket_last_signal (NULL);
return rnb_success;
}
In the call to DNBProcessInterrupt we did:
nub_bool_t
DNBProcessInterrupt(nub_process_t pid)
{
MachProcessSP procSP;
if (GetProcessSP (pid, procSP))
return procSP->Interrupt();
return false;
}
This would always return false. It would cause HandlePacket_stop_process to always call "HandlePacket_last_signal (NULL);" which would send an extra stop reply packet _if_ the process is stopped. On a machine with enough cores, it would call DNBProcessInterrupt(...) and then HandlePacket_last_signal(NULL) so quickly that it will never send out an extra stop reply packet. But if the machine is slow enough or doesn't have enough cores, it could cause the call to HandlePacket_last_signal() to actually succeed and send an extra stop reply packet. This would cause problems up in GDBRemoteCommunicationClient::SendContinuePacketAndWaitForResponse() where it would get the first stop reply packet and then possibly return or execute an async packet. If it returned, then the next packet that was sent will get the second stop reply as its response. If it executes an async packet, the async packet will get the wrong response.
To fix this I did the following:
1 - in debugserver, I fixed "bool MachProcess::Interrupt()" to return true if it sends the signal so we avoid sending the stop reply twice on slower machines
2 - Added a log line to RNBRemote::HandlePacket_stop_process() to say if we ever send an extra stop reply so we will see this in the darwin console output if this does happen
3 - Added response validators to StringExtractorGDBRemote so that we can verify some responses to some packets.
4 - Added validators to packets that often follow stop reply packets like the "m" packet for memory reads, JSON packets since "jThreadsInfo" is often sent immediately following a stop reply.
5 - Modified GDBRemoteCommunicationClient::SendPacketAndWaitForResponseNoLock() to validate responses. Any "StringExtractorGDBRemote &response" that contains a valid response verifier will verify the response and keep looking for correct responses up to 3 times. This will help us get back on track if we do get extra stop replies. If a StringExtractorGDBRemote does not have a response validator, it will accept any packet in response.
6 - In GDBRemoteCommunicationClient::SendPacketAndWaitForResponse we copy the response validator from the "response" argument over into m_async_response so that if we send the packet by interrupting the running process, we can validate the response we actually get in GDBRemoteCommunicationClient::SendContinuePacketAndWaitForResponse()
7 - Modified GDBRemoteCommunicationClient::SendContinuePacketAndWaitForResponse() to always check for an extra stop reply packet for 100ms when the process is interrupted. We were already doing this because we might interrupt a process with a \x03 packet, yet the process was in the process of stopping due to another reason. This race condition could cause an extra stop reply packet because the GDB remote protocol says if a \x03 packet is sent while the process is stopped, we should send a stop reply packet back. Now we always check for an extra stop reply packet when we manually interrupt a process.
The issue was showing up when our IDE would attempt to set a breakpoint while the process is running and this would happen:
--> \x03
<-- $T<stop reply 1>
--> z0,AAAAA,BB (set breakpoint)
<-- $T<stop reply 1> (incorrect extra stop reply packet)
--> c
<-- OK (response from z0 packet)
Now all packet traffic was off by one response. Since we now have a validator on the response for "z" packets, we do this:
--> \x03
<-- $T<stop reply 1>
--> z0,AAAAA,BB (set breakpoint)
<-- $T<stop reply 1> (Ignore this because this can't be the response to z0 packets)
<-- OK -- (we are back on track as this is a valid response to z0)
...
As time goes on we should add more packet validators.

The standard remote debugging workflow with gdb is to start the
application on the remote host under gdbserver (e.g.: gdbserver :5039
a.out) and then connect to it with gdb.
The same workflow is supported by debugserver/lldb-gdbserver with a very
similar syntax but to access all features of lldb we need to be
connected also to an lldb-platform instance running on the target.
Before this change this had to be done manually with starting a separate
lldb-platform on the target machine and then connecting to it with lldb
before connecting to the process.
This change modifies the behavior of "platform connect" with
automatically connecting to the process instance if it was started by
the remote platform. With this command replacing gdbserver in a gdb
based worflow is usually as simple as replacing the command to execute
gdbserver with executing lldb-platform.

to rebase it off of head (developed via id tfiala@google.com). I switched over to
user todd.fiala@gmail.com in the middle, and once I went to github, I did
merges rather than rebasing so I could share with others.
llvm-svn: 212069
Example code:
remote_platform = lldb.SBPlatform("remote-macosx");
remote_platform.SetWorkingDirectory("/private/tmp")
debugger.SetSelectedPlatform(remote_platform)
connect_options = lldb.SBPlatformConnectOptions("connect://localhost:1111");
err = remote_platform.ConnectRemote(connect_options)
if err.Success():
print >> result, 'Connected to remote platform:'
print >> result, 'hostname: %s' % (remote_platform.GetHostname())
src = lldb.SBFileSpec("/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/LLDB.framework", False)
dst = lldb.SBFileSpec()
# copy src to platform working directory since "dst" is empty
err = remote_platform.Install(src, dst);
if err.Success():
print >> result, '%s installed successfully' % (src)
else:
print >> result, 'error: failed to install "%s": %s' % (src, err)
Implemented many calls needed in lldb-platform to be able to install a directory that contains symlinks, file and directories.
The remote lldb-platform can now launch GDB servers on the remote system so that remote debugging can be spawned through the remote platform when connected to a remote platform.
The API in SBPlatform is subject to change and will be getting many new functions.
