lldb-dap was setting a flag which was meant to shut it down as soon as
it sent a terminated event. The problem with this flag is two-fold:
- as far as I can tell (definitely not an expert here), there's no
justification for this in the protocol spec. The only way I found to
shut the server down was to send it a disconnect request.
- the flag did not actually work most of the time, because it's only
checked between requests so nothing will happen if the server starts
listening for a new request before a different thread manages to send
the terminated event. And since the next request is usually the
disconnect request, everything will operate normally.
The combination of these two things meant that the issue was largely
unnoticable, except for rare flaky test failures, which happened when
the handler thread was too slow, and checked the flag after it has
already been said. This caused the test suite to complain as it did not
get a response to the disconnect request. This situation could be
s(t)imulated by adding a sleep to the and of the main loop, which
delayed the flag check, and caused the DAP tests to fail reliably.
This patch changes the shutdown condition to only trigger when the
disconnect request has been received. Since the flag can now only be set
from the handler thread, it no longer needs to be atomic.
On Darwin platforms, the system will generate a crash report in
~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ when a process crashes.
These reports are much more useful than the "pretty backtraces" printed
by LLVM and are preferred when filing bug reports on Darwin.
`SBProcess::GetMemoryRegionInfo` uses `qMemoryRegionInfo` packet to get
memory region info, but this is not supported in gdb-server and causing
downstream lldb test failures. This change ignores the the error from
`SBProcess::GetMemoryRegionInfo` .

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/87409 removed the broadcast
bits from SBDebugger and placed them in `lldb-enumerations.h`. This is
API-breaking so this commits places the enum back into `SBDebugger.h`
and references the bits from `lldb-enumerations.h`.

This patch provides the initial implementation for the "Step Into
Specific/Step In Targets" feature in VSCode DAP.
The implementation disassembles all the call instructions in step range
and try to resolve operand name (assuming one operand) using debug info.
Later, the call target function name is chosen by end user and specified
in the StepInto() API call.
It is v1 because of using the existing step in target function name API.
This implementation has several limitations:
* Won't for indirect/virtual function call -- in most cases, our
disassembler won't be able to solve the indirect call target
address/name.
* Won't work for target function without debug info -- if the target
function has symbol but not debug info, the existing
ThreadPlanStepInRange won't stop.
* Relying on function names can be fragile -- if there is some middle
glue/thunk code, our disassembler can only resolve the glue/thunk code's
name not the real target function name. It can be fragile to depend
compiler/linker emits the same names for both.
* Does not support step into raw address call sites -- it is a valid
scenario that in Visual Studio debugger, user can explicitly choose a
raw address to step into which land in the function without debug
info/symbol, then choose UI to load the debug info on-demand for that
module/frame to continue exploring.
A more reliable design could be extending the ThreadPlanStepInRange to
support step in based on call-site instruction offset/PC which I will
propose in next iteration.

Summary:
When the target inferior process that is being debugged exits in lldb
command line, it emits following message:
`Process 4049526 exited with status = -1 (0xffffffff) debugserver died
with signal SIGTERM`
lldb-dap on the other hand does not emit a similar message. This PR adds
the same status message to lldb-dap.
Test Plan:
In VSCode debug any target and hit stop mode, kill lldb-server and
observe an exit status message similar to the following: Process 2167677
exited with status = -1 (0xffffffff) debugserver died with signal
SIGTERM

This reverts commit 9f6d08f2566a26144ea1753f80aebb1f2ecfdc63. This broke
the build because of a usage of one of the original SBDebugger broadcast
bits that wasn't updated in the original commit.
If a SetDataBreakpointsRequest contains a list data breakpoints which
have duplicate starting addresses, the current behaviour is returning
`{verified: true}` to both watchpoints with duplicated starting
addresses. This confuses the client and what actually happens in lldb is
the second one overwrite the first one.
This fixes it by letting the last watchpoint at given address have
`{verified: true}` and all previous watchpoints at the same address
should have `{verfied: false}` at response.
This implements functionality to handle DataBreakpointInfo request and
SetDataBreakpoints request.
Previous commit
8c56e78ec5
was reverted because setting 1 byte watchpoint failed in the new test on
ARM64. So, I changed the test to setting 4 byte watchpoint instead, and
hope this won't break it again. It also adds the fixes from
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/81680.
This adds a layer between `SounceBreakpoint`/`FunctionBreakpoint` and
`BreakpointBase` to have better separation and encapsulation so we are
not directly operating on `SBBreakpoint`.
I basically moved the `SBBreakpoint` and the methods that requires it
from `BreakpointBase` to `Breakpoint`. This allows adding support for
data watchpoint easier by sharing the logic inside `BreakpointBase`.
lldb-dap instances managed by other extensions benefit from having a
welcome message with, for example, a basic user guide or a
troubleshooting message.
This PR adds a cmake variable for defining such message in a simple way.
This message appears upon initialization but before initCommands are
executed, as they might cause a failure and prevent the message from
being displayed.
The previous logic for determining if an expression was a command or
variable expression in the repl would incorrectly identify the context
in many common cases where a local variable name partially overlaps with
the repl input.
For example:
```
int foo() {
int var = 1; // break point, evaluating "p var", previously emitted a warning
}
```
Instead of checking potentially multiple conflicting values against the
expression input, I updated the heuristic to only consider the first
term. This is much more reliable at eliminating false positives when the
input does not actually hide a local variable.
Additionally, I updated the warning on conflicts to occur anytime the
conflict is detected since the specific conflict can change based on the
current input. This also includes additional details on how users can
change the behavior.
Example Debug Console output from
lldb/test/API/tools/lldb-dap/evaluate/main.cpp:11 breakpoint 3.
```
lldb-dap> var + 3
Warning: Expression 'var' is both an LLDB command and variable. It will be evaluated as a variable. To evaluate the expression as an LLDB command, use '`' as a prefix.

lldb-dap> var + 1
Warning: Expression 'var' is both an LLDB command and variable. It will be evaluated as a variable. To evaluate the expression as an LLDB command, use '`' as a prefix.

```
This allows release teams to customize the bug report url for lldb. It
also removes unnecessary constructions of
`llvm::PrettyStackTraceProgram` as it's already constructed inside
`llvm::InitLLVM`.
When generating a `display_value` for a variable the current approach
calls `SBValue::GetValue()` and `SBValue::GetSummary()` to generate a
`display_value` for the `SBValue`. However, there are cases where both
of these return an empty string and the fallback is to print a pointer
and type name instead (e.g. `FooBarType @ 0x00321`).
For swift types, lldb includes a langauge runtime plugin that can
generate a description of the object but this is only used with
`SBValue::GetDescription()`.
For example:
```
$ lldb swift-binary
... stop at breakpoint ...
lldb> script
>>> event = lldb.frame.GetValueForVariablePath("event")
>>> print("Value", event.GetValue())
Value None
>>> print("Summary", event.GetSummary())
Summary None
>>> print("Description", event) # __str__ calls SBValue::GetDescription()
Description (main.Event) event = (name = "Greetings", time = 2024-01-04 23:38:06 UTC)
```
With this change, if GetValue and GetSummary return empty then we try
`SBValue::GetDescription()` as a fallback before using the previous
logic of printing `<type> @ <addr>`.
In order to allow smarter vscode extensions, it's useful to send
additional structured information of SBValues to the client.
Specifically, I'm now sending error, summary, autoSummary and
inMemoryValue in addition to the existing properties being sent. This is
cheap because these properties have to be calculated anyway to generate
the display value of the variable, but they are now available for
extensions to better analyze variables. For example, if the error field
is not present, the extension might be able to provide cool features,
and the current way to do that is to look for the `"<error: "` prefix,
which is error-prone.
This also incorporates a tiny feedback from
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/74865#issuecomment-1850695477
This patch replaces uses of StringRef::{starts,ends}with with
StringRef::{starts,ends}_with for consistency with
std::{string,string_view}::{starts,ends}_with in C++20.
I'm planning to deprecate and eventually remove
StringRef::{starts,ends}with.
This adds support for optionally prefixing any command with `?` and/or
`!`.
- `?` prevents the output of a commands to be printed to the console
unless it fails.
- `!` aborts the dap if the command fails.
They come in handy when programmatically running commands on behalf of
the user without wanting them to know unless they fail, or when a
critical setup is required as part of launchCommands and it's better to
abort on failures than to silently skip.
When this option gets enabled, descriptions of threads will be generated
using the format provided in the launch configuration instead of
generating it manually in the dap code. This allows lldb-dap to show an
output similar to the one in the CLI.
This is very similar to https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/71843
When this option gets enabled, descriptions of stack frames will be
generated using the format provided in the launch configuration instead
of simply calling `SBFrame::GetDisplayFunctionName`. This allows
lldb-dap to show an output similar to the one in the CLI.
We've been using the backtick as our escape character, however that
leads to a weird experience on VS Code, because on most hosts, as soon
as you type the backtick on VS Code, the IDE will introduce another
backtick. As changing the default escape character might be out of
question because other plugins might rely on it, we can instead
introduce an option to change this variable upon lldb-vscode
initialization.
FWIW, my users will be using : instead ot the backtick.
There are some uses of "vscode" in
`lldb/packages/Python/lldbsuite/test/tools/lldb-dap/dap_server.py` where
I'm not sure if it's referring to the adapter or VS Code itself, so
those remain.
