I modified the "Args::StringtoAddress(...)" function to be able to evaluate address expressions. This is now used for any command line arguments or options that takes addresses like:
memory read <addr> [<end-addr>]
memory write <addr>
breakpoint set --address <addr>
disassemble --start-address <addr> --end-address <addr>
It calls the expression parser to evaluate the address expression and will also work around the issue where the compiler doesn't like to add offsets to function pointers (which is what happens when you try to evaluate "main + 12"). So there is a temp fix in the Args::StringtoAddress() to work around this until we can get special compiler support for debug expressions with function pointers.

- add new header lldb-python.h to be included before other system headers
- short term fix (eventually python dependencies must be cleaned up)
Patch by Matt Kopec!
llvm-svn: 169341
Cleaned up the option parsing code to always pass around the short options as integers. Previously we cast this down to "char" and lost some information. I recently added an assert that would detect duplicate short character options which was firing during the test suite.
This fix does the following:
- make sure all short options are treated as "int"
- make sure that short options can be non-printable values when a short option is not required or when an option group is mixed into many commands and a short option is not desired
- fix the help printing to "do the right thing" in all cases. Previously if there were duplicate short character options, it would just not emit help for the duplicates
- fix option parsing when there are duplicates to parse options correctly. Previously the option parsing, when done for an OptionGroup, would just start parsing options incorrectly by omitting table entries and it would end up setting the wrong option value

For "target create" you can now specify "--no-dependents" to not track down and add all dependent shared libraries. This can be handy when doing manual symbolication. Also added the "--symfile" or "-s" for short so you can specify a module and a stand alone debug info file:
(lldb) target create --symfile /tmp/a.dSYM /usr/bin/a
Added the "--symfile" option to the "target modules add" for the same reason. These all help with manualy symbolication and expose functionality that was previously only available through the public API layer.
llvm-svn: 169023
Emit an error when using "target modules add PATH" where PATH points to a debug info only (dSYM) file.
Also added a "--uuid" option for "target modules add --uuid UUID" to locate and load a module by UUID if the host supports it.

This commit does three things:
(a) introduces a new notification model for adding/removing/changing modules to a ModuleList, and applies it to the Target's ModuleList, so that we make sure to always trigger the right set of actions
whenever modules come and go in a target. Certain spots in the code still need to "manually" notify the Target for several reasons, so this is a work in progress
(b) adds a new capability to the Platforms: locating a scripting resources associated to a module. A scripting resource is a Python file that can load commands, formatters, ... and any other action
of interest corresponding to the loading of a module. At the moment, this is only implemented on Mac OS X and only for files inside .dSYM bundles - the next step is going to be letting
the frameworks themselves hold their scripting resources. Implementors of platforms for other systems are free to implement "the right thing" for their own worlds
(c) hooking up items (a) and (b) so that targets auto-load the scripting resources as the corresponding modules get loaded in a target. This has a few caveats at the moment:
- the user needs to manually add the .py file to the dSYM (soon, it will also work in the framework itself)
- if two modules with the same name show up during the lifetime of an LLDB session, the second one won't be able to load its scripting resource, but will otherwise work just fine

There was a generic catch-all type for path arguments
called "eArgTypePath," and a specialized version
called "eArgTypeFilename." It turns out all the
cases where we used eArgTypePath we could have
used Filename or we explicitly meant a directory.
I changed Path to DirectoryName, made it use the
directory completer, and rationalized the uses of
Path.

More fixes to how we handle paths that are used to create a target.
This modification centralizes the location where and how what the user specifies gets resolved. Prior to this fix, the TargetList::CreateTarget variants took a FileSpec object which meant everyone had the opportunity to resolve the path their own way. Now both CreateTarget variants take a "const char *use_exe_path" which allows the TargetList::CreateTarget to centralize where the resolving happens and "do the right thing".

LLDB changes argv[0] when debugging a symlink. Now we have the notion of argv0 in the target settings:
target.arg0 (string) =
There is also the program argument that are separate from the first argument that have existed for a while:
target.run-args (arguments) =
When running "target create <exe>", we will place the untouched "<exe>" into target.arg0 to ensure when we run, we run with what the user typed. This has been added to the ProcessLaunchInfo and all other needed places so we always carry around the:
- resolved executable path
- argv0
- program args
Some systems may not support separating argv0 from the resolved executable path and the ProcessLaunchInfo needs to carry all of this information along so that each platform can make that decision.

enabled after we'd found a few bugs that were caused by shadowed
local variables; the most important issue this turned up was
a common mistake of trying to obtain a mutex lock for the scope
of a code block by doing
Mutex::Locker(m_map_mutex);
This doesn't assign the lock object to a local variable; it is
a temporary that has its dtor called immediately. Instead,
Mutex::Locker locker(m_map_mutex);
does what is intended. For some reason -Wshadow happened to
highlight these as shadowed variables.
I also fixed a few obivous and easy shadowed variable issues
across the code base but there are a couple dozen more that
should be fixed when someone has a free minute.

We can now do:
Specify a path to a debug symbols file:
(lldb) add-dsym <path-to-dsym>
Go and download the dSYM file for the "libunc.dylib" module in your target:
(lldb) add-dsym --shlib libunc.dylib
Go and download the dSYM given a UUID:
(lldb) add-dsym --uuid <UUID>
Go and download the dSYM file for the current frame:
(lldb) add-dsym --frame
llvm-svn: 164806
Partial fix for the above radar where we now resolve dsym mach-o files within the dSYM bundle when using "add-dsym" through the platform.

Make breakpoint setting by file and line much more efficient by only looking for inlined breakpoint locations if we are setting a breakpoint in anything but a source implementation file. Implementing this complex for a many reasons. Turns out that parsing compile units lazily had some issues with respect to how we need to do things with DWARF in .o files. So the fixes in the checkin for this makes these changes:
- Add a new setting called "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" which can be set to "never", "always", or "headers". "never" will never try and set any inlined breakpoints (fastest). "always" always looks for inlined breakpoint locations (slowest, but most accurate). "headers", which is the default setting, will only look for inlined breakpoint locations if the breakpoint is set in what are consudered to be header files, which is realy defined as "not in an implementation source file".
- modify the breakpoint setting by file and line to check the current "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" setting and act accordingly
- Modify compile units to be able to get their language and other info lazily. This allows us to create compile units from the debug map and not have to fill all of the details in, and then lazily discover this information as we go on debuggging. This is needed to avoid parsing all .o files when setting breakpoints in implementation only files (no inlines). Otherwise we would need to parse the .o file, the object file (mach-o in our case) and the symbol file (DWARF in the object file) just to see what the compile unit was.
- modify the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" to subclass lldb_private::Module so that the virtual "GetObjectFile()" and "GetSymbolVendor()" functions can be intercepted when the .o file contenst are later lazilly needed. Prior to this fix, when we first instantiated the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" class, we would also make modules, object files and symbol files for every .o file in the debug map because we needed to fix up the sections in the .o files with information that is in the executable debug map. Now we lazily do this in the DebugMapModule::GetObjectFile()
Cleaned up header includes a bit as well.

'add-dsym' (aka 'target symbols add') should display error messages when dsym file is not found
or the dsym uuid does not match any existing modules. Add TestAddDsymCommand.py test file.

Add an lldb command line option to specify a core file: --core/-c.
For consistency, change the "target create" command to also use --core.

UnwindPlans for a function. This specifically does not use any
previously-generated UnwindPlans so if any logging is performed
while creating the UnwindPlans, it will be repeated. This is
useful for when an lldb stack trace is not correct and you want
to gather diagnostic information from the user -- they can do
log enable -v lldb unwind, image show-unwind of the function, and
you'll get the full logging as the UnwindPlans are recreated.

Execute which was never going to get run and another ExecuteRawCommandString. Took the knowledge of how
to prepare raw & parsed commands out of CommandInterpreter and put it in CommandObject where it belongs.
Also took all the cases where there were the subcommands of Multiword commands declared in the .h file for
the overall command and moved them into the .cpp file.
Made the CommandObject flags work for raw as well as parsed commands.
Made "expr" use the flags so that it requires you to be paused to run "expr".

that forces all matches to be looked up. When --all
is not passed, and the current execution frame can
be used to narrow down the search, "target modules
lookup" will try searching in that specific frame
first. Only if nothing is turned up there will it
go on to search all modules.
This feature is currently enabled only for types.
llvm-svn: 158107
setting breakpoints. That's dangerous, since while we are setting a breakpoint,
the target might hit the dyld load notification, and start removing modules from
the list. This change adds a GetMutex accessor to the ModuleList class, and
uses it whenever we are accessing the target's ModuleList (as returned by GetImages().)

Add "--name" option to "image lookup" that will search both functions and symbols.
Also made all of the output from any of the "image lookup" commands be the same regardless of the lookup type (function name, symbol name, func or symbol, file and line, address, etc). The --verbose or -v option also will expand the results as needed and display things so they look the same.

No one was using it and Locker(pthread_mutex_t *) immediately asserts for
pthread_mutex_t's that don't come from a Mutex anyway. Rather than try to make
that work, we should maintain the Mutex abstraction and not pass around the
platform implementation...
Make Mutex::Locker::Lock take a Mutex & or a Mutex *, and remove the constructor
taking a pthread_mutex_t *. You no longer need to call Mutex::GetMutex to pass
your mutex to a Locker (you can't in fact, since I made it private.)
llvm-svn: 156221
Cleaned up the Mutex::Locker and the ReadWriteLock classes a bit.
Also cleaned up the GDBRemoteCommunication class to not have so many packet functions. Used the "NoLock" versions of send/receive packet functions when possible for a bit of performance.

Work around a deadlocking issue where "SBDebugger::MemoryPressureDetected ()" is being called and is causing a deadlock. We now just try and get the lock when trying to trim down the unique modules so we don't deadlock debugger GUI programs until we can find the root cause.

Symbol files (dSYM files on darwin) can now be specified during program execution:
(lldb) target symbols add /path/to/symfile/a.out.dSYM/Contents/Resources/DWARF/a.out
This command can be used when you have a debug session in progress and want to add symbols to get better debug info fidelity.
llvm-svn: 153693
indicates that the section is thread specific. Any functions the load a module
given a slide, will currently ignore any sections that are thread specific.
lldb_private::Section now has:
bool
Section::IsThreadSpecific () const
{
return m_thread_specific;
}
void
Section::SetIsThreadSpecific (bool b)
{
m_thread_specific = b;
}
The ELF plug-in has been modified to set this for the ".tdata" and the ".tbss"
sections.
Eventually we need to have each lldb_private::Thread subclass be able to
resolve a thread specific section, but for now they will just not resolve. The
code for that should be trivual to add, but the address resolving functions
will need to be changed to take a "ExecutionContext" object instead of just
a target so that thread specific sections can be resolved.
llvm-svn: 153537
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.
llvm-svn: 153482
Changes to synthetic children:
- the update(self): function can now (optionally) return a value - if it returns boolean value True, ValueObjectSyntheticFilter will not clear its caches across stop-points
this should allow better performance for Python-based synthetic children when one can be sure that the child ValueObjects have not changed
- making a difference between a synthetic VO and a VO with a synthetic value: now a ValueObjectSyntheticFilter will not return itself as its own synthetic value, but will (correctly)
claim to itself be synthetic
- cleared up the internal synthetic children architecture to make a more consistent use of pointers and references instead of shared pointers when possible
- major cleanup of unnecessary #include, data and functions in ValueObjectSyntheticFilter itself
- removed the SyntheticValueType enum and replaced it with a plain boolean (to which it was equivalent in the first place)
Some clean ups to the summary generation code
Centralized the code that clears out user-visible strings and data in ValueObject
More efficient summaries for libc++ containers

This fix really needed to happen as a previous fix I had submitted for
calculating symbol sizes made many symbols appear to have zero size since
the function that was calculating the symbol size was calling another function
that would cause the calculation to happen again. This resulted in some symbols
having zero size when they shouldn't. This could then cause infinite stack
traces and many other side affects.

2) providing an updated list of tagged pointers values for the objc_runtime module - hopefully this one is final
3) changing ValueObject::DumpValueObject to use an Options class instead of providing a bulky list of parameters to pass around
this change had been laid out previously, but some clients of DumpValueObject() were still using the old prototype and some arguments
were treated in a special way and passed in directly instead of through the Options class
4) providing new GetSummaryAsCString() and GetValueAsCString() calls in ValueObject that are passed a formatter object and a destination string
and fill the string by formatting themselves using the formatter argument instead of the default for the current ValueObject
5) removing the option to have formats and summaries stick to a variable for the current stoppoint
after some debate, we are going with non-sticky: if you say frame variable --format hex foo, the hex format will only be applied to the current command execution and not stick when redisplaying foo
the other option would be full stickiness, which means that foo would be formatted as hex for its whole lifetime
we are open to suggestions on what feels "natural" in this regard

more of the local path, platform path, associated symbol file, UUID, arch,
object name and object offset. This allows many of the calls that were
GetSharedModule to reduce the number of arguments that were used in a call
to these functions. It also allows a module to be created with a ModuleSpec
which allows many things to be specified prior to any accessors being called
on the Module class itself.
I was running into problems when adding support for "target symbol add"
where you can specify a stand alone debug info file after debugging has started
where I needed to specify the associated symbol file path and if I waited until
after construction, the wrong symbol file had already been located. By using
the ModuleSpec it allows us to construct a module with as little or as much
information as needed and not have to change the parameter list.
llvm-svn: 151476
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.
llvm-svn: 151336
Tracking modules down when you have a UUID and a path has been improved.
DynamicLoaderDarwinKernel no longer parses mach-o load commands and it
now uses the memory based modules now that we can load modules from memory.
Added a target setting named "target.exec-search-paths" which can be used
to supply a list of directories to use when trying to look for executables.
This allows one or more directories to be used when searching for modules
that may not exist in the SDK/PDK. The target automatically adds the directory
for the main executable to this list so this should help us in tracking down
shared libraries and other binaries.
llvm-svn: 150426
"target modules lookup" also work with the
"--function" option, so you can search for
functions that aren't inlined. This is the
same query that the expression parser makes, so
it's good for diagnosing situations where the
expression parser doesn't find a function you
think should be there.
