This checkin adds the capability for LLDB to load plugins from external dylibs that can provide new commands
It exports an SBCommand class from the public API layer, and a new SBCommandPluginInterface
There is a minimal load-only plugin manager built into the debugger, which can be accessed via Debugger::LoadPlugin.
Plugins are loaded from two locations at debugger startup (LLDB.framework/Resources/PlugIns and ~/Library/Application Support/LLDB/PlugIns) and more can be (re)loaded via the "plugin load" command
For an example of how to make a plugin, refer to the fooplugin.cpp file in examples/plugins/commands
Caveats:
Currently, the new API objects and features are not exposed via Python.
The new commands can only be "parsed" (i.e. not raw) and get their command line via a char** parameter (we do not expose our internal Args object)
There is no unloading feature, which can potentially lead to leaks if you overwrite the commands by reloading the same or different plugins
There is no API exposed for option parsing, which means you may need to use getopt or roll-your-own

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.

The attached patch adds support for debugging 32-bit processes when running a 64-bit lldb on an x86_64 Linux system.
Making this work required two basic changes:
1) Getting lldb to report that it could debug 32-bit processes
2) Changing an assumption about how ptrace works when debugging cross-platform
For the first change, I took a conservative approach and only enabled this for x86_64 Linux platforms. It may be that the change I made in Host.cpp could be extended to other 64-bit Linux platforms, but I'm not familiar enough with the other platforms to know for sure.
For the second change, the Linux ProcessMonitor class was assuming that ptrace(PTRACE_[PEEK|POKE]DATA...) would read/write a "word" based on the child process word size. However, the ptrace documentation says that the "word" size read or written is "determined by the OS variant." I verified experimentally that when ptracing a 32-bit child from a 64-bit parent a 64-bit word is read or written.

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.

- no setting auto completion
- very manual and error prone way of getting/setting variables
- tons of code duplication
- useless instance names for processes, threads
Now settings can easily be defined like option values. The new settings makes use of the "OptionValue" classes so we can re-use the option value code that we use to set settings in command options. No more instances, just "does the right thing".

than being given the pthread_mutex_t from the Mutex and locks that. That allows us to
track ownership of the Mutex better.
Used this to switch the LLDB_CONFIGURATION_DEBUG enabled assert when we can't get the
gdb-remote sequence mutex to assert when the thread that had the mutex releases it. This
is generally more useful information than saying just who failed to get it (since the
code that had it locked often had released it by the time the assert fired.)

TestBackticksWithoutATarget.BackticksWithNoTargetTestCase was calling
GetDummyTarget() when executing for x86_64. When performing session
tearDown, it would get destroyed (and everything would be invalid (arch,
etc).
Then the test would run for i386. The dummy target wasn't being
reinitialized and was invalid. lldb complained that 'current process state
is unsuitable for expression parsing'.
llvm-svn: 156994
"lldb -a i386" doesn't set the calculator mode correctly if run on a 64 bit system.
The previous logic always used the current host architecture, not the default architecture. The default arch gets set into a static varaible in lldb_private::Target when an arch is set from the command line:
lldb -a i386
We now use the default arch correctly.

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
Rework the Host.cpp::ThreadNameAccessor to use ThreadSafeSTLMap - we've got it so we might as well use it. Also works around a problem with the
Mutex::Locker class raising fallacious asserts in debug mode when used with pthread_mutex_t's that weren't backed by Mutex objects.

Error
Host::RunShellCommand (const char *command,
const char *working_dir,
int *status_ptr,
int *signo_ptr,
std::string *command_output_ptr,
uint32_t timeout_sec);
This will allow us to use this functionality in the host lldb_private::Platform, and also use it in our lldb-platform binary. It leverages the existing code in Host::LaunchProcess and ProcessLaunchInfo.
llvm-svn: 154730
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.
llvm-svn: 154458
nanoseconds in 32-bit expression would cause pthread_cond_timedwait
to time out immediately. Add explicit casts to the TimeValue::TimeValue
ctor that takes a struct timeval and change the NanoSecsPerSec etc
constants defined in TimeValue to be uint64_t so any other calculations
involving these should be promoted to 64-bit even when lldb is built
for 32-bit.

spin up a temporary "private state thread" that will respond to events from the lower level process plugins. This check-in should work to do
that, but it is still buggy. However, if you don't call functions on the private state thread, these changes make no difference.
This patch also moves the code in the AppleObjCRuntime step-through-trampoline handler that might call functions (in the case where the debug
server doesn't support the memory allocate/deallocate packet) out to a safe place to do that call.

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
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.

watching for errors from pthread_mutex_destroy () (usually "Resource
busy" errors for when you have a mutex locked and try to destroy
it), and pthread_mutex_lock, and pthread_mutex_unlock (usually for
trying to lock an invalid mutex that might have possible already
been freed).

so that we don't have "fprintf (stderr, ...)" calls sprinkled everywhere.
Changed all needed locations over to using this.
For non-darwin, we log to stderr only. On darwin, we log to stderr _and_
to ASL (Apple System Log facility). This will allow GUI apps to have a place
for these error and warning messages to go, and also allows the command line
apps to log directly to the terminal.

Be better at detecting when DWARF changes and handle this more
gracefully than asserting and exiting.
Also fixed up a bunch of system calls that weren't properly checking
for EINTR.
llvm-svn: 147559
After recent changes we weren't reaping child processes resulting in many
zombie processes.
This was fixed by adding more settings to the ProcessLaunchOptions class
that allow clients to specify a callback function and baton to be notified
when their process dies. If one is not supplied a default callback will be
used that "does the right thing".
Cleaned up a race condition in the ProcessGDBRemote class that would attempt
to monitor when debugserver died.
Added an extra boolean to the process monitor callbacks that indicate if a
process exited or not. If your process exited with a zero exit status and no
signal, both items could be zero.
Modified the process monitor functions to not require a callback function
in order to reap the child process.

- If you download and build the sources in the Xcode project, x86_64 builds
by default using the "llvm.zip" checkpointed LLVM.
- If you delete the "lldb/llvm.zip" and the "lldb/llvm" folder, and build the
Xcode project will download the right LLVM sources and build them from
scratch
- If you have a "lldb/llvm" folder already that contains a "lldb/llvm/lib"
directory, we will use the sources you have placed in the LLDB directory.
Python can now be disabled for platforms that don't support it.
Changed the way the libllvmclang.a files get used. They now all get built into
arch specific directories and never get merged into universal binaries as this
was causing issues where you would have to go and delete the file if you wanted
to build an extra architecture slice.

- no trailing newline character
