<h2 id="WindowsPreliminaries">Preliminaries</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This section describes how to set up your system and install the required dependencies such that
|
|
they can be found when needed during the build process. The steps outlined here only need to
|
|
be performed once.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><p>Install Visual Studio and the Windows SDK.</p></li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Build Python from source using the solution file supplied with the Python 2.7 source
|
|
distribution.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Because LLDB functionality is compiled into a Python extension module,
|
|
the extension module must be compiled with the same version of Visual Studio that
|
|
Python itself was compiled with. The binary release of Python 2.7 is compiled with
|
|
Visual Studio 2008, so it is incompatible with linking against LLDB.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that if you plan to do both debug and release builds of LLDB, you will need to
|
|
compile both debug and release builds of Python. The same applies if you plan to build
|
|
both x86 and x64 configurations of LLDB
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>Copy <python src dir>\PC\pyconfig.h to <python src dir>\Include.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This is necessary because pyconfig.h is a hand-maintained file which is platform specific,
|
|
so multiple copies of this file are included with each source distribution. It appears to
|
|
be up to the person building Python to move the correct version of pyconfig.h to the Include
|
|
folder.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Run lldb/scripts/install_custom_python.py so to "install" your custom build of Python to a
|
|
canonical directory structure.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><p>Install GnuWin32, making sure <GnuWin32 install dir>\bin is added to your PATH environment variable.</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>Install SWIG for Windows, making sure <SWIG install dir> is added to your PATH environment variable.</p></li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<h2>Building LLDB</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Any command prompt from which you build LLDB should have a valid Visual Studio environment setup.
|
|
This means you should run vcvarsall.bat or open an appropriate Visual Studio Command Prompt
|
|
corresponding to the version you wish to use.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Finally, when you are ready to build LLDB, generate CMake with the following command line:</p>
|
|
<code>cmake -G Ninja <cmake variables> <path to root of llvm src tree></code>
|
|
<p>and run <code>ninja</code> to build LLDB. Information about running the LLDB test suite can be found on the <a href="test.html">test</a> page.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Following is a description of some of the most important CMake variables which you are likely to encounter.
|
|
A variable <code>FOO</code> is set by adding <code>-DFOO=value</code> to the CMake command line.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>LLDB_TEST_DEBUG_TEST_CRASHES</b> (Default=0): If set to 1, will cause Windows to generate a crash
|
|
dialog whenever lldb.exe or the python extension module crashes while running the test suite. If set to
|
|
0, LLDB will silently crash. Setting to 1 allows a developer to attach a JIT debugger at the time of
|
|
a crash, rather than having to reproduce a failure or use a crash dump.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>PYTHON_HOME</b> (Required): Path the folder you specified in the --dest argument to install_custom_python.py.
|
|
Note that install_custom_python.py will create x86 and x64 subdirectories under this folder. PYTHON_HOME should
|
|
refer to the correct architecture-specific folder.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>LLDB_RELOCATABLE_PYTHON</b> (Default=0): When this is 0, LLDB will bind statically to the location specified
|
|
in the PYTHON_HOME CMake variable, ignoring any value of PYTHONHOME set in the environment. This is most useful for
|
|
developers who simply want to run LLDB after they build it. If you wish to move a build of LLDB to a different
|
|
machine where Python will be in a different location, setting LLDB_RELOCATABLE_PYTHON to 1 will cause Python to
|
|
use its default mechanism for finding the python installation at runtime (looking for installed Pythons, or using
|
|
the PYTHONHOME environment variable if it is specified).

<h2>Preliminaries</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
LLDB relies on many of the technologies developed by the larger LLVM project.
|
|
In particular, it requires both Clang and LLVM itself in order to build. Due to
|
|
this tight integration the <em>Getting Started</em> guides for both of these projects
|
|
come as prerequisite reading:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="http://llvm.org/docs/GettingStarted.html">LLVM</a></li>
|
|
<li><a href="http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html">Clang</a></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Supported compilers for building LLDB on Linux include:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Clang 3.2</li>
|
|
<li><a href="http://gcc.gnu.org">GCC</a> 4.6.2 (later versions should work as well)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>It is recommended to use libstdc++ 4.6 (or higher) to build LLDB on Linux, but using libc++ is also known to work.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
On FreeBSD the base system Clang and libc++ may be used to build LLDB,
|
|
or the GCC port or package.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In addition to any dependencies required by LLVM and Clang, LLDB needs a few
|
|
development packages that may also need to be installed depending on your
|
|
system. The current list of dependencies are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="http://swig.org">Swig</a></li>
|
|
<li><a href="http://www.thrysoee.dk/editline">libedit</a> (Linux only)</li>
|
|
<li><a href="http://www.python.org">Python</a></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>So for example, on a Fedora system one might run:</p>
|
|
<code>> yum install libedit-devel libxml2-devel ncurses-devel python-devel swig</code>
|
|
<p>On a Debian or Ubuntu system one might run:</p>
|
|
<code>> sudo apt-get install build-essential subversion swig python2.7-dev libedit-dev libncurses5-dev </code>
|
|
<p>or</p>
|
|
<code>> sudo apt-get build-dep lldb-3.3 # or lldb-3.4</code>
|
|
<p>On FreeBSD one might run:</p>
|
|
<code>> pkg install swig python</code>
|
|
<p>If you wish to build the optional reference documentation, additional dependencies are required:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> Graphviz (for the 'dot' tool).
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li> doxygen (only if you wish to build the C++ API reference)
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li> epydoc (only if you wish to build the Python API reference)
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>To install the prerequisites for building the documentation (on Debian/Ubuntu) do:</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
<br />> sudo apt-get install doxygen graphviz
|
|
<br />> sudo pip install epydoc # or install package python-epydoc
|
|
</code>
|
|
<h2>Building LLDB</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
We first need to checkout the source trees into the appropriate locations. Both
|
|
Clang and LLDB build as subprojects of LLVM. This means we will be checking out
|
|
the source for both Clang and LLDB into the <tt>tools</tt> subdirectory of LLVM. We
|
|
will be setting up a directory hierarchy looking something like this:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<pre><tt>
|
|
llvm
|
|
|
|
|
`-- tools
|
|
|
|
|
+-- clang
|
|
|
|
|
`-- lldb
|
|
</tt></pre>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For reference, we will call the root of the LLVM project tree <tt>$llvm</tt>, and the
|
|
roots of the Clang and LLDB source trees <tt>$clang</tt> and <tt>$lldb</tt> respectively.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Change to the directory where you want to do development work and checkout LLVM:</p>
|
|
<code>> svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk llvm</code>
|
|
|
|
<p>Now switch to LLVM’s tools subdirectory and checkout both Clang and LLDB:</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
> cd $llvm/tools
|
|
<br />> svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk clang
|
|
<br />> svn co http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/lldb/trunk lldb
|
|
</code>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In general, building the LLDB trunk revision requires trunk revisions of both
|
|
LLVM and Clang.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
It is highly recommended that you build the system out of tree. Create a second
|
|
build directory and configure the LLVM project tree to your specifications as
|
|
outlined in LLVM’s <em>Getting Started Guide</em>. A typical build procedure
|
|
might be:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
> cd $llvm/..
|
|
<br />> mkdir build
|
|
<br />> cd build
|
|
</code>
|
|
<h2>To build with CMake</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Using CMake is documented on the <a href="http://llvm.org/docs/CMake.html">Building LLVM with CMake</a>
|
|
page. Building LLDB is possible using one of the following generators:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> Ninja </li>
|
|
<li> Unix Makefiles </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Using CMake + Ninja</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Ninja is the fastest way to build LLDB! In order to use ninja, you need to have recent versions of CMake and
|
|
ninja on your system. To build using ninja:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
> cmake .. -G Ninja
|
|
<br />> ninja lldb
|
|
<br />> ninja check-lldb
|
|
</code>
|
|
<h3>Using CMake + Unix Makefiles</h3>
|
|
<p>If you do not have Ninja, you can still use CMake to generate Unix Makefiles that build LLDB:</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
> cmake ..
|
|
<br />> make
|
|
<br />> make check-lldb
|
|
</code>
|
|
<h2>To build with autoconf</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you do not have CMake, it is still possible to build LLDB using the autoconf build system. If you are using
|
|
Clang or GCC 4.8+, run:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
> $llvm/configure
|
|
<br />> make
|
|
</code>
|
|
<p>If you are building with a GCC that isn't the default gcc/g++, like gcc-4.9/g++-4.9</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
> $llvm/configure CC=gcc-4.9 CXX=g++-4.9
|
|
<br />> make CC=gcc-4.9 CXX=g++-4.9
|
|
</code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you are running in a system that doesn't have a lot of RAM (less than 4GB), you might want to disable
|
|
debug symbols by specifying DEBUG_SYMBOLS=0 when running make. You will know if you need to enable this
|
|
because you will fail to link clang (the linker will get a SIGKILL and exit with status 9).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
> make DEBUG_SYMBOLS=0
|
|
</code>
|
|
<p> To run the LLDB test suite, run:</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
<br />> make -C tools/lldb/test
|
|
</code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that once both LLVM and Clang have been configured and built it is not
|
|
necessary to perform a top-level <tt>make</tt> to rebuild changes made only to LLDB.
|
|
You can run <tt>make</tt> from the <tt>build/tools/lldb</tt> subdirectory as well.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you wish to build with libc++ instead of libstdc++ (the default), run configure with the
|
|
<tt>--enable-libcpp</tt> flag.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p> If you wish to build a release version of LLDB, run configure with the <tt>--enable-optimized</tt> flag.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Building API reference documentation</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
LLDB exposes a C++ as well as a Python API. To build the reference documentation for these two APIs, ensure you have
|
|
the required dependencies installed, and build the <tt>lldb-python-doc</tt> and <tt>lldb-cpp-doc</tt> CMake targets.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p> The output HTML reference documentation can be found in <tt><build-dir>/tools/lldb/docs/</tt>.</p><p>
|
|
<h2>Additional Notes</h2>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
LLDB has a Python scripting capability and supplies its own Python module named <tt>lldb</tt>.
|
|
If a script is run inside the command line <tt>lldb</tt> application, the Python module
|
|
is made available automatically. However, if a script is to be run by a Python interpreter
|
|
outside the command line application, the <tt>PYTHONPATH</tt> environment variable can be used
|
|
to let the Python interpreter find the <tt>lldb</tt> module.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The correct path can be obtained by invoking the command line <tt>lldb</tt> tool with the -P flag:</p>
|
|
<code>> export PYTHONPATH=`$llvm/build/Debug+Asserts/bin/lldb -P`</code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you used a different build directory or made a release build, you may need to adjust the
|
|
above to suit your needs. To test that the lldb Python module
|
|
is built correctly and is available to the default Python interpreter, run:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>> python -c 'import lldb'</code></p>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="cross-compilation">Cross-compiling LLDB</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In order to debug remote targets running different architectures than your host, you
|
|
will need to compile LLDB (or at least the server component) for the target. While
|
|
the easiest solution is to just compile it locally on the target, this is often not
|
|
feasible, and in these cases you will need to cross-compile LLDB on your host.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Cross-compilation is often a daunting task and has a lot of quirks which depend on
|
|
the exact host and target architectures, so it is not possible to give a universal
|
|
guide which will work on all platforms. However, here we try to provide an overview
|
|
of the cross-compilation process along with the main things you should look out for.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
First, you will need a working toolchain which is capable of producing binaries for
|
|
the target architecture. Since you already have a checkout of clang and lldb, you
|
|
can compile a host version of clang in a separate folder and use that.
|
|
Alternatively you can use system clang or even cross-gcc if your distribution
|
|
provides such packages (e.g., <code>g++-aarch64-linux-gnu</code> on Ubuntu). On
|
|
Android, a working toolchain can be produced by downloading the Android NDK and
|
|
running the contained <code>make-standalone-toolchain.sh</code> script.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Next, you will need a copy of the required target headers and libraries on your
|
|
host. The libraries can be usually obtained by copying from the target machine,
|
|
however the headers are often not found there, especially in case of embedded
|
|
platforms. In this case, you will need to obtain them from another source, either
|
|
a cross-package if one is available, or cross-compiling the respective library from
|
|
source. Fortunately the list of LLDB dependencies is not big and if you are only
|
|
interested in the server component, you can reduce this even further by passing the
|
|
appropriate cmake options, such as:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
-DLLDB_DISABLE_LIBEDIT=1<br/>
|
|
-DLLDB_DISABLE_CURSES=1<br/>
|
|
-DLLDB_DISABLE_PYTHON=1<br/>
|
|
-DLLVM_ENABLE_TERMINFO=0
|
|
</code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In this case you, will often not need anything other than the standard C and C++
|
|
libraries.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the case of Android, all required headers and libraries are provided by the
|
|
aforementioned <code>make-standalone-toolchain.sh</code> script.
|
|

Once all of the dependencies are in place, it's just a matter of configuring the
|
|
build system with the locations and arguments of all the necessary tools. The most
|
|
important cmake options here are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt>CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING</dt>
|
|
<dd>Set to 1 to enable cross-compilation.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE</dt>
|
|
<dd>Affects the cmake search path when looking for libraries. You may need to set
|
|
this to your architecture triple if you do not specify all your include and
|
|
library paths explicitly.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>CMAKE_C_COMPILER, CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER</dt>
|
|
<dd>C and C++ compilers for the target architecture</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>CMAKE_C_FLAGS, CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS</dt>
|
|
<dd>The flags for the C and C++ target compilers. You may need to specify the
|
|
exact target cpu and abi besides the include paths for the target headers.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS</dt>
|
|
<dd>The flags to be passed to the linker. Usually just a list of library search
|
|
paths referencing the target libraries.</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>LLVM_TABLEGEN, CLANG_TABLEGEN</dt>
|
|
<dd>Paths to llvm-tblgen and clang-tblgen for the <em>host</em> architecture. If
|
|
you already have built clang for the host, you can point these variables to the
|
|
executables in your build directory. If not, you will need to build the
|
|
llvm-tblgen and clang-tblgen host targets at least.<dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>LLVM_HOST_TRIPLE</dt>
|
|
<dd>The triple of the system that lldb (or lldb-server) will run on. Not setting
|
|
this (or setting it incorrectly) can cause a lot of issues with remote debugging
|
|
as a lot of the choices lldb makes depend on the triple reported by the remote
|
|
platform.</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You can of course also specify the usual cmake options like CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE, etc.

<h3>Example 1: Cross-compiling for linux arm64 on Ubuntu host</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Ubuntu already provides the packages necessary to cross-compile LLDB for arm64. It
|
|
is sufficient to install packages gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu, g++-aarch64-linux-gnu,
|
|
binutils-aarch64-linux-gnu. Then it is possible to prepare the cmake build with the
|
|
following parameters:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
-DCMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING=1 \<br/>
|
|
-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc \<br/>
|
|
-DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=aarch64-linux-gnu-g++ \<br/>
|
|
-DLLVM_HOST_TRIPLE=aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu \<br/>
|
|
-DLLVM_TABLEGEN=<path-to-host>/bin/llvm-tblgen \<br/>
|
|
-DCLANG_TABLEGEN=<path-to-host>/bin/clang-tblgen \<br/>
|
|
-DLLDB_DISABLE_PYTHON=1 \<br/>
|
|
-DLLDB_DISABLE_LIBEDIT=1 \<br/>
|
|
-DLLDB_DISABLE_CURSES=1
|
|
</code>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
An alternative (and recommended) way to compile LLDB is with clang. Unfortunately,
|
|
clang is not able to find all the include paths necessary for a successful
|
|
cross-compile, so we need to help it with a couple of CFLAGS options. In my case it
|
|
was sufficient to add the following arguments to CMAKE_C_FLAGS and CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS
|
|
(in addition to changing CMAKE_C(XX)_COMPILER to point to clang compilers):
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
-target aarch64-linux-gnu \<br/>
|
|
-I /usr/aarch64-linux-gnu/include/c++/4.8.2/aarch64-linux-gnu \<br/>
|
|
-I /usr/aarch64-linux-gnu/include
|
|
</code>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you wanted to build a full version of LLDB and avoid passing
|
|
-DLLDB_DISABLE_PYTHON and other options, you would need to obtain the target
|
|
versions of the respective libraries. The easiest way to achieve this is to use the
|
|
<code>qemu-debootstrap</code> utility, which can prepare a system image using qemu
|
|
and chroot to simulate the target environment. Then you can install the necessary
|
|
packages in this environment (python-dev, libedit-dev, etc.) and point your
|
|
compiler to use them using the correct -I and -L arguments.
|
|
</p>
|

<h3>Example 2: Cross-compiling for Android on Linux</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
All tools needed to build LLDB for android are available in the Android NDK. For
|
|
example, we can produce an x86 toolchain along with all the libraries and headers
|
|
by running
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
./build/tools/make-standalone-toolchain.sh \<br/>
|
|
--platform=android-21 \<br/>
|
|
--toolchain=x86-4.9 \<br/>
|
|
--install-dir=$HOME/Toolchains/x86-android-toolchain
|
|
</code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
from inside the unzipped NDK. Toolchains for other architectures can be produced in
|
|
a similar manner.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
For Android we provide a Android.cmake script which sets a lot of the required
|
|
options automatically. A cmake build can therefore be prepared with the following parameters:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=cmake/platforms/Android.cmake \<br/>
|
|
-DANDROID_TOOLCHAIN_DIR=$HOME/Toolchains/x86-android-toolchain \<br/>
|
|
-DANDROID_ABI=x86 \<br/>
|
|
-DLLVM_HOST_TRIPLE=i386-unknown-linux-android \<br/>
|
|
-DLLVM_TABLEGEN=<path-to-host>/bin/llvm-tblgen \<br/>
|
|
-DCLANG_TABLEGEN=<path-to-host>/bin/clang-tblgen
|
|
</code>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that the full LLVM build is not functional on android yet, so simply running
|
|
<code>ninja</code> will not work. You will need to manually specify the target you
|
|
want to build: <code>lldb</code>, <code>lldb-server</code>, etc.
