So the dSYM can be told what target it has been loaded into.
When lldb is loading modules, while creating a target, it will run
"command script import" on any Python modules in Resources/Python in the
dSYM. However, this happens WHILE the target is being created, so it is
not yet in the target list. That means that these scripts can't act on
the target that they a part of when they get loaded.
This patch adds a new python API that lldb will call:
__lldb_module_added_to_target
if it is defined in the module, passing in the Target the module was
being added to, so that code in these dSYM's don't have to guess.
Expose u target API mutex through the SB API. This is motivated by
lldb-dap, which is built on top of the SB API and needs a way to execute
a series of SB API calls in an atomic manner (see #131242).
We can solve this problem by either introducing an additional layer of
locking at the DAP level or by exposing the existing locking at the SB
API level. This patch implements the second approach.
This was discussed in an RFC on Discourse [0]. The original
implementation exposed a move-only lock rather than a mutex [1] which
doesn't work well with SWIG 4.0 [2]. This implement the alternative
solution of exposing the mutex rather than the lock. The SBMutex
conforms to the BasicLockable requirement [3] (which is why the methods
are called `lock` and `unlock` rather than Lock and Unlock) so it can be
used as `std::lock_guard<lldb::SBMutex>` and
`std::unique_lock<lldb::SBMutex>`.

We recently added an explicit finalize to SBProgress, #128966. I
realized while adding some additional implementations of SBProgress that
we should to add `with` support for ease of use. This patch addresses
adding and `__enter()__` method (which a no-op) and an `__exit()__` to
swig. I also refactor the emitter for the test to leverage `with`
instead of explicitly calling finalize, and I've updated the docstrings.
When adding SBLock, I realized you always have to add a new header in
two places: LLDB.h and headers.swig.
I can't think of a reason the latter can't use the umbrella header and
avoid the duplication.
This patch adds a finalize method which destroys the underlying RAII
SBProgress. My primary motivation for this is so I can write better
tests that are non-flaky, but after discussing with @clayborg in my DAP
message improvement patch (#124648) this is probably an essential API
despite that I originally argued it wasn't.
Fix#92603
This replaces #113066. I finally came back to this issue and it seems
that this approach is still very promising.
As requested, I have added a short explanation as to why CPython module
should be moved into a submodule.

Xcode uses a pseudoterminal for the debugger console.
- The upside of this apporach is that it means that it can rely on
LLDB's IOHandlers for multiline and script input.
- The downside of this approach is that the command output is printed to
the PTY and you don't get a SBCommandReturnObject. Adrian added support
for inline diagnostics (#110901) and we'd like to access those from the
IDE.
This patch adds support for registering a callback in the command
interpreter that gives access to the `(SB)CommandReturnObject` right
before it will be printed. The callback implementation can choose
whether it likes to handle printing the result or defer to lldb. If the
callback indicated it handled the result, the command interpreter will
skip printing the result.
We considered a few other alternatives to solve this problem:
- The most obvious one is using `HandleCommand`, which returns a
`SBCommandReturnObject`. The problem with this approach is the multiline
input mentioned above. We would need a way to tell the IDE that it
should expect multiline input, which isn't known until LLDB starts
handling the command.
- To address the multiline issue,we considered exposing (some of the)
IOHandler machinery through the SB API. To solve this particular issue,
that would require reimplementing a ton of logic that already exists
today in the CommandInterpeter. Furthermore that seems like overkill
compared to the proposed solution.

My colleague, @lukejriddle made the SBMemoryRegionList object iterable
in #117358. This isn't documented anywhere and so I added a blurb about
it to SBProcess.
In my last attempt at this (#123873), I didn't realize we needed semi
colons! Also fixed the bug that the feature summary didn't have a type
defined.
CC @JDevlieghere hope you get a laugh at needing to revert doc strings
for breaking the build....
Adds a `selected_frame` property to `SBThread`. The setter accepts either a frame index (like `SetSelectedFrame`), or a frame object.
Updates a few tests to make use of the new `selected_frame`. While doing so I noticed some of the usage could be cleaned up, so I did that too.
SBSaveCoreOptions has been around for awhile now, so I decided to draft
up some Docstrings describing the functionality better. Some of my
wording sounded a bit clunky due the optionality of each method call so
I would greatly appreciate feedback.
Includes the new method in #122541 so I will merge this as a follow up.
Recently I've been working on a lot of internal Python tooling, and in
certain cases I want to report async to the script over DAP. Progress.h
already handles this, so I've exposed Progress via the SB API so Python
scripts can also update progress objects.
I actually have no idea how to test this, so I just wrote a [toy command
to test
it](https://gist.github.com/Jlalond/48d85e75a91f7a137e3142e6a13d0947)

I also copied the first section of the extensive Progress.h class
documentation to the docstrings.

Introduces a `member` property to `SBValue`. This property provides pythonic access to a
value's members, by name. The expression `value.member["name"]` will be an alternate
form form of writing `value.GetChildMemberWithName("name")`.
This PR fixes a simple SWIG issue with SBMemoryRegionInfoList not being
iterable out-of-the-box. This is mostly because of limitations to the
`lldb_iter` function, which doesn't allow for specifying arguments to
the size / iter functions passed.

First, `SRE_Pattern` does not exist on newer Python's, use
`type(re.compile(''))` like other Python extensions do. The dynamic type
is because some earlier versions of Python 3 do not have `re.Pattern`.
Second, `SBModule` has a `file` property, not a `path` property.
If your arguments or option values are of a type that naturally uses one
of our common completion mechanisms, you will get completion for free.
But if you have your own custom values or if you want to do fancy things
like have `break set -s foo.dylib -n ba<TAB>` only complete on symbols
in foo.dylib, you can use this new mechanism to achieve that.
...and "[lldb/Interpreter] Introduce `ScriptedStopHook{,Python}Interface` & make use of it (#105449)"
This reverts commit 76b827bb4d5b4cc4d3229c4c6de2529e8b156810, and commit 1e131ddfa8f1d7b18c85c6e4079458be8b419421
because the first commit caused the test command-stop-hook-output.test to fail.
This patch introduces new `ScriptedStopHook{,Python}Interface` classes
that make use of the Scripted Interface infrastructure and makes use of
it in `StopHookScripted`.
It also relax the requirement on the number of argument for initializing
scripting extension if the size of the interface parameter pack contains
1 less element than the extension maximum number of positional arguments
for this initializer.
This addresses the cases where the embedded interpreter session
dictionary is passed to the extension initializer which is not used most
of the time.

There is no need to support Python 2.7 anymore, Python 3.3+ has
`subprocess.DEVNULL`. This is good practice and also prevents file
handles from
staying open unnecessarily.
Also remove a couple unused or unneeded `__future__` imports.
This patch removes all of the Set.* methods from Status.
This cleanup is part of a series of patches that make it harder use the
anti-pattern of keeping a long-lives Status object around and updating
it while dropping any errors it contains on the floor.
This patch is largely NFC, the more interesting next steps this enables
is to:
1. remove Status.Clear()
2. assert that Status::operator=() never overwrites an error
3. remove Status::operator=()
Note that step (2) will bring 90% of the benefits for users, and step
(3) will dramatically clean up the error handling code in various
places. In the end my goal is to convert all APIs that are of the form
` ResultTy DoFoo(Status& error)
`
to
` llvm::Expected<ResultTy> DoFoo()
`
How to read this patch?
The interesting changes are in Status.h and Status.cpp, all other
changes are mostly
` perl -pi -e 's/\.SetErrorString/ = Status::FromErrorString/g' $(git
grep -l SetErrorString lldb/source)
`
plus the occasional manual cleanup.
The issue was introduced in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/104523.
The code introduces the `ret_val` variable but does not use it. Instead
it returns a pointer, which gets implicitly converted to bool.
Compilers and language runtimes often use helper functions that are
fundamentally uninteresting when debugging anything but the
compiler/runtime itself. This patch introduces a user-extensible
mechanism that allows for these frames to be hidden from backtraces and
automatically skipped over when navigating the stack with `up` and
`down`.
This does not affect the numbering of frames, so `f <N>` will still
provide access to the hidden frames. The `bt` output will also print a
hint that frames have been hidden.
My primary motivation for this feature is to hide thunks in the Swift
programming language, but I'm including an example recognizer for
`std::function::operator()` that I wished for myself many times while
debugging LLDB.
rdar://126629381
Example output. (Yes, my proof-of-concept recognizer could hide even
more frames if we had a method that returned the function name without
the return type or I used something that isn't based off regex, but it's
really only meant as an example).

This PR adds `SBSaveCoreOptions`, which is a container class for options
when LLDB is taking coredumps. For this first iteration this container
just keeps parity with the extant API of `file, style, plugin`. In the
future this options object can be extended to allow users to take a
subset of their core dumps.
Among other things, returning an empty string as the repeat command
disables auto-repeat, which can be useful for state-changing commands.
There's one remaining refinement to this setup, which is that for parsed
script commands, it should be possible to change an option value, or add
a new option value that wasn't originally specified, then ask lldb "make
this back into a command string". That would make doing fancy things
with repeat commands easier.
That capability isn't present in the lldb_private side either, however.
So that's for a next iteration.
I haven't added this to the docs on adding commands yet. I wanted to
make sure this was an acceptable approach before I spend the time to do
that.
Following a feedback request in #97262, I took out the scripted thread
plan python base class from it and make a separate PR for it.
This patch adds the scripted thread plan base python class to the lldb
python module as well as the lldb documentation website.

This patch makes ScriptedThreadPlan conforming to the ScriptedInterface
& ScriptedPythonInterface facilities by introducing 2
ScriptedThreadPlanInterface & ScriptedThreadPlanPythonInterface classes.
This allows us to get rid of every ScriptedThreadPlan-specific SWIG
method and re-use the same affordances as other scripting offordances,
like Scripted{Process,Thread,Platform} & OperatingSystem.
To do so, this adds new transformer methods for `ThreadPlan`, `Stream` &
`Event`, to allow the bijection between C++ objects and their python
counterparts.

…andOverrideCallback (#94518)"
This reverts commit 7cff05ada05e87408966d56b4c1675033187ff5c. The API
test that was added erroneously imports a module that isn't needed and
wouldn't be found which causes a test failures. This reversion removes
that import.
`SBCommandInterpreter::CommandOverrideCallback` was not being exposed to
the Python API and has no coverage in the
API test suite, so this commits exposes and adds a test for it. Doing
this involves also adding a typemap for the callback used for this
function so that it matches the functionality of other callback
functions that are exposed to Python.
This is useful if you have a transcript of a user session and want to
rerun those commands with RunCommandInterpreter. The same functionality
is also useful in testing.
I'm adding it primarily for the second reason. In a subsequent patch,
I'm adding the ability to Python based commands to provide their
"auto-repeat" command. Among other things, that will allow potentially
state destroying user commands to prevent auto-repeat. Testing this with
Shell or pexpect tests is not nearly as accurate or convenient as using
RunCommandInterpreter, but to use that I need to allow auto-repeat.
I think for consistency's sake, having interactive sessions always do
auto-repeats is the right choice, though that's a lightly held
opinion...
This adds new SB API calls and classes to allow a user of the SB API to obtain an address range from SBFunction and SBBlock. This is a second attempt to land the reverted PR #92014.
