The code is buggy and barely tested. It is also mostly boilerplate.
(This includes MCObjectDisassembler, which is the interface to that
functionality)
Following an IRC discussion with Jim Grosbach, it seems sensible to just
nuke the whole lot of functionality, and dig it up from VCS if
necessary (I hope not!).
All of this stuff appears to have been added in a huge patch dump (look
at the timeframe surrounding e.g. r182628) where almost every patch
seemed to be untested and not reviewed before being committed.
Post-review responses to the patches were never addressed. I don't think
any of it would have passed pre-commit review.
I doubt anyone is depending on this, since this code appears to be
extremely buggy. In limited testing that Michael Spencer and I did, we
couldn't find a single real-world object file that wouldn't crash the
CFG reconstruction stuff. The symbolizer stuff has O(n^2) behavior and
so is not much use to anyone anyway. It seemed simpler to remove them as
a whole. Most of this code is boilerplate, which is the only way it was
able to scrape by 60% coverage.
HEADSUP: Modules folks, some files I nuked were referenced from
include/llvm/module.modulemap; I just deleted the references. Hopefully
that is the right fix (one was a FIXME though!).

MachOObjectFile in lib/Object currently has no support for parsing the rebase,
binding, and export information from the LC_DYLD_INFO load command in final
linked mach-o images. This patch adds support for parsing the exports trie data
structure. It also adds an option to llvm-objdump to dump that export info.
I did the exports parsing first because it is the hardest. The information is
encoded in a trie structure, but the standard ObjectFile way to inspect content
is through iterators. So I needed to make an iterator that would do a
non-recursive walk through the trie and maintain the concatenation of edges
needed for the current string prefix.
I plan to add similar support in MachOObjectFile and llvm-objdump to
parse/display the rebasing and binding info too.

The switch statement would never fire due to the preceding break statement. Also, the switch statement has a default label with no case labels. Simplified the code, and allow it to execute.

Owning the buffer is somewhat inflexible. Some Binaries have sub Binaries
(like Archive) and we had to create dummy buffers just to handle that. It is
also a bad fit for IRObjectFile where the Module wants to own the buffer too.
Keeping this ownership would make supporting IR inside native objects
particularly painful.
This patch focuses in lib/Object. If something elsewhere used to own an Binary,
now it also owns a MemoryBuffer.
This patch introduces a few new types.
* MemoryBufferRef. This is just a pair of StringRefs for the data and name.
This is to MemoryBuffer as StringRef is to std::string.
* OwningBinary. A combination of Binary and a MemoryBuffer. This is needed
for convenience functions that take a filename and return both the
buffer and the Binary using that buffer.
The C api now uses OwningBinary to avoid any change in semantics. I will start
a new thread to see if we want to change it and how.

file with -macho, the Mach-O specific object file parser option.
After some discussion I chose to do this implementation contained in the logic
of llvm-objdump’s MachODump.cpp using a second disassembler for thumb when
needed and with updates mostly contained in the MachOObjectFile class.

ARM bots (& others, I think, now that I look) were failing because we
were using incorrect printf-style format specifiers. They were wrong
on almost any platform, actually, just mostly harmlessly so.
llvm-svn: 215196
Also make the disassembler created with the Mach-O parser (the -m option)
pick up the Target specific attributes specified with -mattr option.

This makes the buffer ownership on error conditions very natural. The buffer
is only moved out of the argument if an object is constructed that now
owns the buffer.

Immutable DILineInfo doesn't bring any benefits and complicates
code. Also, use std::string instead of SmallString<16> for file
and function names - their length can vary significantly.
No functionality change.

This patch re-introduces the MCContext member that was removed from
MCDisassembler in r206063, and requires that an MCContext be passed in at
MCDisassembler construction time. (Previously the MCContext member had been
initialized in an ad-hoc fashion after construction). The MCCContext member
can be used by MCDisassembler sub-classes to construct constant or
target-specific MCExprs.
This patch updates disassemblers for in-tree targets, and provides the
MCRegisterInfo instance that some disassemblers were using through the
MCContext (previously those backends were constructing their own
MCRegisterInfo instances).
llvm-svn: 206241
This compiles with no changes to clang/lld/lldb with MSVC and includes
overloads to various functions which are used by those projects and llvm
which have OwningPtr's as parameters. This should allow out of tree
projects some time to move. There are also no changes to libs/Target,
which should help out of tree targets have time to move, if necessary.

None of the object file formats reported error on iterator increment. In
retrospect, that is not too surprising: no object format stores symbols or
sections in a linked list or other structure that requires chasing pointers.
As a consequence, all error checking can be done on begin() and end().
This reduces the text segment of bin/llvm-readobj in my machine from 521233 to
518526 bytes.

The constructors of classes deriving from Binary normally take an error_code
as an argument to the constructor. My original intent was to change them
to have a trivial constructor and move the initial parsing logic to a static
method returning an ErrorOr. I changed my mind because:
* A constructor with an error_code out parameter is extremely convenient from
the implementation side. We can incrementally construct the object and give
up when we find an error.
* It is very efficient when constructing on the stack or when there is no
error. The only inefficient case is where heap allocating and an error is
found (we have to free the memory).
The result is that this is a much smaller patch. It just standardizes the
create* helpers to return an ErrorOr.
Almost no functionality change: The only difference is that this found that
we were trying to read past the end of COFF import library but ignoring the
error.

from the LC_DATA_IN_CODE load command. And when disassembling print
the data in code formatted for the kind of data it and not disassemble those
bytes.
I added the format specific functionality to the derived class MachOObjectFile
since these tables only appears in Mach-O object files. This is my first
attempt to modify the libObject stuff so if folks have better suggestions
how to fit this in or suggestions on the implementation please let me know.

In ELF (as in MachO), not all relocations point to symbols. Represent this
properly by using a symbol_iterator instead of a SymbolRef. Update llvm-readobj
ELF's dumper to handle relocatios without symbols.
llvm-svn: 183284
This patch builds on some existing code to do CFG reconstruction from
a disassembled binary:
- MCModule represents the binary, and has a list of MCAtoms.
- MCAtom represents either disassembled instructions (MCTextAtom), or
contiguous data (MCDataAtom), and covers a specific range of addresses.
- MCBasicBlock and MCFunction form the reconstructed CFG. An MCBB is
backed by an MCTextAtom, and has the usual successors/predecessors.
- MCObjectDisassembler creates a module from an ObjectFile using a
disassembler. It first builds an atom for each section. It can also
construct the CFG, and this splits the text atoms into basic blocks.
MCModule and MCAtom were only sketched out; MCFunction and MCBB were
implemented under the experimental "-cfg" llvm-objdump -macho option.
This cleans them up for further use; llvm-objdump -d -cfg now generates
graphviz files for each function found in the binary.
In the future, MCObjectDisassembler may be the right place to do
"intelligent" disassembly: for example, handling constant islands is just
a matter of splitting the atom, using information that may be available
in the ObjectFile. Also, better initial atom formation than just using
sections is possible using symbols (and things like Mach-O's
function_starts load command).
This brings two minor regressions in llvm-objdump -macho -cfg:
- The printing of a relocation's referenced symbol.
- An annotation on loop BBs, i.e., which are their own successor.
Relocation printing is replaced by the MCSymbolizer; the basic CFG
annotation will be superseded by more related functionality.

It was just a less powerful and more confusing version of
MCCFIInstruction. A side effect is that, since MCCFIInstruction uses
dwarf register numbers, calls to getDwarfRegNum are pushed out, which
should allow further simplifications.
I left the MachineModuleInfo::addFrameMove interface unchanged since
this patch was already fairly big.

getRelocationAddress is for dynamic libraries and executables,
getRelocationOffset for relocatable objects.
Mark the getRelocationAddress of COFF and MachO as not implemented yet. Add a
test of ELF's. llvm-readobj -r now prints the same values as readelf -r.

Thanks to Evgeniy Stepanov for reporting this.
It might be a good idea to add a command iterator abstraction to MachO.h, but
this fixes the bug for now.

LoadCommandInfo was needed to keep a command and its offset in the file. Now
that we always have a pointer to the command, we don't need the offset.

InMemoryStruct is extremely dangerous as it returns data from an internal
buffer when the endiannes doesn't match. This should fix the tests on big
endian hosts.
llvm-svn: 178875
On MachO, sections also have segment names. When a tool looking at a .o file
prints a segment name, this is what they mean. In reality, a .o has only one
anonymous, segment.
This patch adds a MachO only function to fetch that segment name. I named it
getSectionFinalSegmentName since the main use for the name seems to be inform
the linker with segment this section should go to.
The patch also changes MachOObjectFile::getSectionName to return just the
section name instead of computing SegmentName,SectionName.
The main difference from the previous patch is that it doesn't use
InMemoryStruct. It is extremely dangerous: if the endians match it returns
a pointer to the file buffer, if not, it returns a pointer to an internal buffer
that is overwritten in the next API call.
We should change all of this code to use
support::detail::packed_endian_specific_integral like ELF, but since these
functions only handle strings, they work with big and little endian machines
as is.
I have tested this by installing ubuntu 12.10 ppc on qemu, that is why it took
so long :-)

I cannot reproduce it the failures locally, so I will keep an eye at the ppc
bots. This patch does add the change to the "Disassembly of section" message,
but that is not what was failing on the bots.
Original message:
Add a funciton to get the segment name of a section.

prints a segment name, this is what they mean. In reality, a .o has only one

Again, tools are trickier to pick the main module header for than
library source files. I've started to follow the pattern of using
LLVMContext.h when it is included as a stub for program source files.
