we are requesting a single thread to run. May seem like a silly thing to do, but the kernel
on MacOS X will inject new threads into a program willy-nilly, and I would like to keep them
from running if I can.
llvm-svn: 124018
I added support for asking if the GDB remote server supports thread suffixes
for packets that should be thread specific (register read/write packets) because
the way the GDB remote protocol does it right now is to have a notion of a
current thread for register and memory reads/writes (set via the "$Hg%x" packet)
and a current thread for running ("$Hc%x"). Now we ask the remote GDB server
if it supports adding the thread ID to the register packets and we enable
that feature in LLDB if supported. This stops us from having to send a bunch
of packets that update the current thread ID to some value which is prone to
error, or extra packets.
llvm-svn: 123762
the way LLDB lazily gets complete definitions for types within the debug info.
When we run across a class/struct/union definition in the DWARF, we will only
parse the full definition if we need to. This works fine for top level types
that are assigned directly to variables and arguments, but when we have a
variable with a class, lets say "A" for this example, that has a member:
"B *m_b". Initially we don't need to hunt down a definition for this class
unless we are ever asked to do something with it ("expr m_b->getDecl()" for
example). With my previous approach to lazy type completion, we would be able
to take a "A *a" and get a complete type for it, but we wouldn't be able to
then do an "a->m_b->getDecl()" unless we always expanded all types within a
class prior to handing out the type. Expanding everything is very costly and
it would be great if there were a better way.
A few months ago I worked with the llvm/clang folks to have the
ExternalASTSource class be able to complete classes if there weren't completed
yet:
class ExternalASTSource {
....
virtual void
CompleteType (clang::TagDecl *Tag);
virtual void
CompleteType (clang::ObjCInterfaceDecl *Class);
};
This was great, because we can now have the class that is producing the AST
(SymbolFileDWARF and SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap) sign up as external AST sources
and the object that creates the forward declaration types can now also
complete them anywhere within the clang type system.
This patch makes a few major changes:
- lldb_private::Module classes now own the AST context. Previously the TypeList
objects did.
- The DWARF parsers now sign up as an external AST sources so they can complete
types.
- All of the pure clang type system wrapper code we have in LLDB (ClangASTContext,
ClangASTType, and more) can now be iterating through children of any type,
and if a class/union/struct type (clang::RecordType or ObjC interface)
is found that is incomplete, we can ask the AST to get the definition.
- The SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap class now will create and use a single AST that
all child SymbolFileDWARF classes will share (much like what happens when
we have a complete linked DWARF for an executable).
We will need to modify some of the ClangUserExpression code to take more
advantage of this completion ability in the near future. Meanwhile we should
be better off now that we can be accessing any children of variables through
pointers and always be able to resolve the clang type if needed.
llvm-svn: 123613
a method:
void RegisterContext::InvalidateIfNeeded (bool force);
Each time this function is called, when "force" is false, it will only call
the pure virtual "virtual void RegisterContext::InvalideAllRegisters()" if
the register context's stop ID doesn't match that of the process. When the
stop ID doesn't match, or "force" is true, the base class will clear its
cached registers and the RegisterContext will update its stop ID to match
that of the process. This helps make it easier to correctly flush the register
context (possibly from multiple locations depending on when and where new
registers are availabe) without inadvertently clearing the register cache
when it doesn't need to be.
Modified the ProcessGDBRemote plug-in to be much more efficient when it comes
to:
- caching the expedited registers in the stop reply packets (we were ignoring
these before and it was causing us to read at least three registers every
time we stopped that were already supplied in the stop reply packet).
- When a thread has no stop reason, don't keep asking for the thread stopped
info. Prior to this fix we would continually send a qThreadStopInfo packet
over and over when any thread stop info was requested. We now note the stop
ID that the stop info was requested for and avoid multiple requests.
Cleaned up some of the expression code to not look for ClangExpressionVariable
objects up by name since they are now shared pointers and we can just look for
the exact pointer match and avoid possible errors.
Fixed an bug in the ValueObject code that would cause children to not be
displayed.
llvm-svn: 123127
new "hexname" key for the "key:value;" duple that is part of the packet. This
allows for thread names to contain special characters such as $ # : ; + -
Debugserver now detects if the thread name contains special characters and
sends the chars in hex format if needed.
llvm-svn: 123053
have children sections).
Modified SectionLoadList to do it's own multi-threaded protected on its map.
The ThreadSafeSTLMap class was difficult to deal with and wasn't providing
much utility, it was only getting in the way.
Make sure when the communication read thread is about to exit, it clears the
thread in the main class.
Fixed the ModuleList to correctly ignore architectures and UUIDs if they aren't
valid when searching for a matching module. If we specified a file with no arch,
and then modified the file and loaded it again, it would not match on subsequent
searches if the arch was invalid since it would compare an invalid architecture
to the one that was found or selected within the shared library or executable.
This was causing stale modules to stay around in the global module list when they
should have been removed.
Removed deprecated functions from the DynamicLoaderMacOSXDYLD class.
Modified "ProcessGDBRemote::IsAlive" to check if we are connected to a gdb
server and also make sure our process hasn't exited.
llvm-svn: 121236
inferior to be launched without setting up terminal stdin/stdout for it
(leaving the lldb command line accessible while the program is executing).
Also add a user settings variable, 'target.process.disable-stdio' to allow
the user to set this globally rather than having to use the command option
each time the process is launched.
llvm-svn: 120825
an error saying the resume timed out. Previously the thread that was trying
to resume the process would eventually call ProcessGDBRemote::DoResume() which
would broadcast an event over to the async GDB remote thread which would sent the
continue packet to the remote gdb server. Right after this was sent, it would
set a predicate boolean value (protected by a mutex and condition) and then the
thread that issued the ProcessGDBRemote::DoResume() would then wait for that
condition variable to be set. If the async gdb thread was too quick though, the
predicate boolean value could have been set to true and back to false by the
time the thread that issued the ProcessGDBRemote::DoResume() checks the boolean
value. So we can't use the predicate value as a handshake. I have changed the code
over to using a Event by having the GDB remote communication object post an
event:
GDBRemoteCommunication::eBroadcastBitRunPacketSent
This allows reliable handshaking between the two threads and avoids the erroneous
ProcessGDBRemote::DoResume() errors.
Added a host backtrace service to allow in process backtraces when trying to track
down tricky issues. I need to see if LLVM has any backtracing abilities abstracted
in it already, and if so, use that, but I needed something ASAP for the current issue
I was working on. The static function is:
void
Host::Backtrace (Stream &strm, uint32_t max_frames);
And it will backtrace at most "max_frames" frames for the current thread and can be
used with any of the Stream subclasses for logging.
llvm-svn: 120793
to the DoHalt down in ProcessGDBRemote. I also moved the functionality that
was in ProcessGDBRemote::DoHalt up into Process::Halt so not every class has
to implement a tricky halt/resume on the internal state thread. The
functionality is the same as it was before with two changes:
- when we eat the event we now just reuse the event we consume when the private
state thread is paused and set the interrupted bool on the event if needed
- we also properly update the Process::m_public_state with the state of the
event we consume.
Prior to this, if you issued a "process halt" it would eat the event, not
update the process state, and then produce a new event with the interrupted
bit set and send it. Anyone listening to the event would get the stopped event
with a process that whose state was set to "running".
Fixed debugserver to not have to be spawned with the architecture of the
inferior process. This worked fine for launching processes, but when attaching
to processes by name or pid without a file in lldb, it would fail.
Now debugserver can support multiple architectures for a native debug session
on the current host. This currently means i386 and x86_64 are supported in
the same binary and a x86_64 debugserver can attach to a i386 executable.
This change involved a lot of changes to make sure we dynamically detect the
correct registers for the inferior process.
llvm-svn: 119680
with the Interrupted bit set. Process::HandlePrivateEvent ignores Interrupted events.
DoHalt is changed to ensure that the stop even is processed, and an event with
the Interrupted event is posted. Finally ClangFunction is rationalized to use this
facility so the that Halt is handled more deterministically.
llvm-svn: 119453
ReadThread stuff into the main Process class (out of the Process Plugins).
This has the (intended) side effect of disabling the command line tool
from reading input/commands while the process is running (the input is
directed to the running process rather than to the command interpreter).
llvm-svn: 119329
a pseudo terminal even when the process being attached to.
Fixed a possible crasher in the in:
bool
ClangASTContext::IsAggregateType (clang_type_t clang_type);
It seems that if you pass in a record decl, enum decl, or objc class decl
and ask it if it is an aggregate type, clang will crash.
llvm-svn: 118404
don't crash if we disable logging when some code already has a copy of the
logger. Prior to this fix, logs were handed out as pointers and if they were
held onto while a log got disabled, then it could cause a crash. Now all logs
are handed out as shared pointers so this problem shouldn't happen anymore.
We are also using our new shared pointers that put the shared pointer count
and the object into the same allocation for a tad better performance.
llvm-svn: 118319
pseudoterminal to pass to the inferior for the inferior's I/O
(to allow direct writing, rather than passing all the I/O around
via packets).

than just the entire log channel.
Add checks, where appropriate, to make sure a log channel/category has
not been disabled before attempting to write to it.
llvm-svn: 117715
all of the calls inlined in the header file for better performance.
Fixed the summary for C string types (array of chars (with any combo if
modifiers), and pointers to chars) work in all cases.
Fixed an issue where a forward declaration to a clang type could cause itself
to resolve itself more than once if, during the resolving of the type itself
it caused something to try and resolve itself again. We now remove the clang
type from the forward declaration map in the DWARF parser when we start to
resolve it and avoid this additional call. This should stop any duplicate
members from appearing and throwing all the alignment of structs, unions and
classes.
llvm-svn: 117437
So the issue here was that we have lldb_private::FileSpec that by default was
always resolving a path when using the:
FileSpec::FileSpec (const char *path);
and in the:
void FileSpec::SetFile(const char *pathname, bool resolve = true);
This isn't what we want in many many cases. One example is you have "/tmp" on
your file system which is really "/private/tmp". You compile code in that
directory and end up with debug info that mentions "/tmp/file.c". Then you
type:
(lldb) breakpoint set --file file.c --line 5
If your current working directory is "/tmp", then "file.c" would be turned
into "/private/tmp/file.c" which won't match anything in the debug info.
Also, it should have been just a FileSpec with no directory and a filename
of "file.c" which could (and should) potentially match any instances of "file.c"
in the debug info.
So I removed the constructor that just takes a path:
FileSpec::FileSpec (const char *path); // REMOVED
You must now use the other constructor that has a "bool resolve" parameter that you must always supply:
FileSpec::FileSpec (const char *path, bool resolve);
I also removed the default parameter to SetFile():
void FileSpec::SetFile(const char *pathname, bool resolve);
And fixed all of the code to use the right settings.
llvm-svn: 116944
but something is still killing our inferior.
Fixed an issue with darwin-debug where it wasn't passing all needed arguments
to the inferior.
Fixed a race condition with the attach to named process code.
llvm-svn: 116697
"vAttachName;<PROCNAME>" packet, and wait for a new process by name to launch
with the "vAttachWait;<PROCNAME>".
Fixed a few issues with attaching where if DoAttach() returned no error, yet
there was no valid process ID, we would deadlock waiting for an event that
would never happen.
Added a new "process launch" option "--tty" that will launch the process
in a new terminal if the Host layer supports the "Host::LaunchInNewTerminal(...)"
function. This currently works on MacOSX and will allow the debugging of
terminal applications that do complex operations with the terminal.
Cleaned up the output when the process resumes, stops and halts to be
consistent with the output format.
llvm-svn: 116693
static bool
Host::GetLLDBPath (lldb::PathType path_type, FileSpec &file_spec);
This will fill in "file_spec" with an appropriate path that is appropriate
for the current Host OS. MacOSX will return paths within the LLDB.framework,
and other unixes will return the paths they want. The current PathType
enums are:
typedef enum PathType
{
ePathTypeLLDBShlibDir, // The directory where the lldb.so (unix) or LLDB mach-o file in LLDB.framework (MacOSX) exists
ePathTypeSupportExecutableDir, // Find LLDB support executable directory (debugserver, etc)
ePathTypeHeaderDir, // Find LLDB header file directory
ePathTypePythonDir // Find Python modules (PYTHONPATH) directory
} PathType;
All places that were finding executables are and python paths are now updated
to use this Host call.
Added another new host call to launch the inferior in a terminal. This ability
will be very host specific and doesn't need to be supported on all systems.
MacOSX currently will create a new .command file and tell Terminal.app to open
the .command file. It also uses the new "darwin-debug" app which is a small
app that uses posix to exec (no fork) and stop at the entry point of the
program. The GDB remote plug-in is almost able launch a process and attach to
it, it currently will spawn the process, but it won't attach to it just yet.
This will let LLDB not have to share the terminal with another process and a
new terminal window will pop up when you launch. This won't get hooked up
until we work out all of the kinks. The new Host function is:
static lldb::pid_t
Host::LaunchInNewTerminal (
const char **argv, // argv[0] is executable
const char **envp,
const ArchSpec *arch_spec,
bool stop_at_entry,
bool disable_aslr);
Cleaned up FileSpec::GetPath to not use strncpy() as it was always zero
filling the entire path buffer.
Fixed an issue with the dynamic checker function where I missed a '$' prefix
that should have been added.
llvm-svn: 116690
tricks to get types to resolve. I did this by correctly including the correct
files: stdint.h and all lldb-*.h files first before including the API files.
This allowed me to remove all of the hacks that were in the lldb.swig file
and it also allows all of the #defines in lldb-defines.h and enumerations
in lldb-enumerations.h to appear in the lldb.py module. This will make the
python script code a lot more readable.
Cleaned up the "process launch" command to not execute a "process continue"
command, it now just does what it should have with the internal API calls
instead of executing another command line command.
Made the lldb_private::Process set the state to launching and attaching if
WillLaunch/WillAttach return no error respectively.
llvm-svn: 115902
Added the start of Host specific launch services, though it currently isn't
hookup up to anything. We want to be able to launch a process and use the
native launch services to launch an app like it would be launched by the
user double clicking on the app. We also eventually want to be able to run
a command line app in a newly spawned terminal to avoid terminal sharing.
Fixed an issue with the new DWARF forward type declaration stuff. A crasher
was found that was happening when trying to properly expand the forward
declarations.
llvm-svn: 115213
The Unwind and RegisterContext subclasses still need
to be finished; none of this code is used by lldb at
this point (unless you call into it by hand).
The ObjectFile class now has an UnwindTable object.
The UnwindTable object has a series of FuncUnwinders
objects (Function Unwinders) -- one for each function
in that ObjectFile we've backtraced through during this
debug session.
The FuncUnwinders object has a few different UnwindPlans.
UnwindPlans are a generic way of describing how to find
the canonical address of a given function's stack frame
(the CFA idea from DWARF/eh_frame) and how to restore the
caller frame's register values, if they have been saved
by this function.
UnwindPlans are created from different sources. One source is the
eh_frame exception handling information generated by the compiler
for unwinding an exception throw. Another source is an assembly
language inspection class (UnwindAssemblyProfiler, uses the Plugin
architecture) which looks at the instructions in the funciton
prologue and describes the stack movements/register saves that are
done.
Two additional types of UnwindPlans that are worth noting are
the "fast" stack UnwindPlan which is useful for making a first
pass over a thread's stack, determining how many stack frames there
are and retrieving the pc and CFA values for each frame (enough
to create StackFrameIDs). Only a minimal set of registers is
recovered during a fast stack walk.
The final UnwindPlan is an architectural default unwind plan.
These are provided by the ArchDefaultUnwindPlan class (which uses
the plugin architecture). When no symbol/function address range can
be found for a given pc value -- when we have no eh_frame information
and when we don't have a start address so we can't examine the assembly
language instrucitons -- we have to make a best guess about how to
unwind. That's when we use the architectural default UnwindPlan.
On x86_64, this would be to assume that rbp is used as a stack pointer
and we can use that to find the caller's frame pointer and pc value.
It's a last-ditch best guess about how to unwind out of a frame.
There are heuristics about when to use one UnwindPlan versues the other --
this will all happen in the still-begin-written UnwindLLDB subclass of
Unwind which runs the UnwindPlans.
llvm-svn: 113581
Renamed the "dispatchqaddr" setting that was coming back for stop reply packets
to be named "qaddr" so that gdb doesn't thing it is a register number. gdb
was checking the first character and assuming "di" was a hex register number
because 'd' is a hex digit. It has been shortened so gdb can safely ignore it.
llvm-svn: 113475
execution context only when the process is still alive. When running the test
suite, the debugger is launching and killing processes constantly.
This might be the cause of the test hang as reported in rdar://problem/8377854,
where the debugger was looping infinitely trying to update a supposedly stale
thread list.
llvm-svn: 113022
Added extra logging for stepping.
Fixed an issue where cached stack frame data could be lost between runs when
the thread plans read a stack frame.
llvm-svn: 112973
to spawn a thread for each process that is being monitored. Previously
LLDB would spawn a single thread that would wait for any child process which
isn't ok to do as a shared library (LLDB.framework on Mac OSX, or lldb.so on
linux). The old single thread used to call wait4() with a pid of -1 which
could cause it to reap child processes that it shouldn't have.
Re-wrote the way Function blocks are handles. Previously I attempted to keep
all blocks in a single memory allocation (in a std::vector). This made the
code somewhat efficient, but hard to work with. I got rid of the old BlockList
class, and went to a straight parent with children relationship. This new
approach will allow for partial parsing of the blocks within a function.
llvm-svn: 111706
Arrange that this then gets properly set on attach, or when a "file" is set.
Add a completer for "process attach -n".
Caveats: there isn't currently a way to handle multiple processes with the same name. That
will have to wait on a way to pass annotations along with the completion strings.
llvm-svn: 110624
This will allow debugger plug-ins to make any instance of "lldb_private::StopInfo"
that can completely describe any stop reason. It also provides a framework for
doing intelligent things with the stop info at important times in the lifetime
of the inferior.
Examples include the signal stop info in StopInfoUnixSignal. It will check with
the process to see that the current action is for the signal. These actions
include wether to stop for the signal, wether the notify that the signal was
hit, and wether to pass the signal along to the inferior process. The
StopInfoUnixSignal class overrides the "ShouldStop()" method of StopInfo and
this allows the stop info to determine if it should stop at the signal or
continue the process.
StopInfo subclasses must override the following functions:
virtual lldb::StopReason
GetStopReason () const = 0;
virtual const char *
GetDescription () = 0;
StopInfo subclasses can override the following functions:
// If the subclass returns "false", the inferior will resume. The default
// version of this function returns "true" which means the default stop
// info will stop the process. The breakpoint subclass will check if
// the breakpoint wants us to stop by calling any installed callback on
// the breakpoint, and also checking if the breakpoint is for the current
// thread. Signals will check if they should stop based off of the
// UnixSignal settings in the process.
virtual bool
ShouldStop (Event *event_ptr);
// Sublasses can state if they want to notify the debugger when "ShouldStop"
// returns false. This would be handy for breakpoints where you want to
// log information and continue and is also used by the signal stop info
// to notify that a signal was received (after it checks with the process
// signal settings).
virtual bool
ShouldNotify (Event *event_ptr)
{
return false;
}
// Allow subclasses to do something intelligent right before we resume.
// The signal class will figure out if the signal should be propagated
// to the inferior process and pass that along to the debugger plug-ins.
virtual void
WillResume (lldb::StateType resume_state)
{
// By default, don't do anything
}
The support the Mach exceptions was moved into the lldb/source/Plugins/Process/Utility
folder and now doesn't polute the lldb_private::Thread class with platform
specific code.
llvm-svn: 110184
involved watching for the objective C built-in types in DWARF and making sure
when we convert the DWARF types into clang types that we use the appropriate
ASTContext types.
Added a way to find and dump types in lldb (something equivalent to gdb's
"ptype" command):
image lookup --type <TYPENAME>
This only works for looking up types by name and won't work with variables.
It also currently dumps out verbose internal information. I will modify it
to dump more appropriate user level info in my next submission.
Hookup up the "FindTypes()" functions in the SymbolFile and SymbolVendor so
we can lookup types by name in one or more images.
Fixed "image lookup --address <ADDRESS>" to be able to correctly show all
symbol context information, but it will only show this extra information when
the new "--verbose" flag is used.
Updated to latest LLVM to get a few needed fixes.
llvm-svn: 110089
defines that are in "llvm/Support/MachO.h". This should allow ObjectFileMachO
and ObjectContainerUniversalMachO to be able to be cross compiled in Linux.
Also did some cleanup on the ASTType by renaming it to ClangASTType and
renaming the header file. Moved a lot of "AST * + opaque clang type *"
functionality from lldb_private::Type over into ClangASTType.
llvm-svn: 109046
enabled LLVM make style building and made this compile LLDB on Mac OS X. We
can now iterate on this to make the build work on both linux and macosx.

- fixed 3 posix spawn attributes leaks
- fixed us always leaking CXXBaseSpecifier objects when we create class
base classes. Clang apparently copies the base classes we pass in.
Fixed some code formatting in ClangASTContext.cpp.
llvm-svn: 107459
to the debugger from GUI windows. Previously there was one global debugger
instance that could be accessed that had its own command interpreter and
current state (current target/process/thread/frame). When a GUI debugger
was attached, if it opened more than one window that each had a console
window, there were issues where the last one to setup the global debugger
object won and got control of the debugger.
To avoid this we now create instances of the lldb_private::Debugger that each
has its own state:
- target list for targets the debugger instance owns
- current process/thread/frame
- its own command interpreter
- its own input, output and error file handles to avoid conflicts
- its own input reader stack
So now clients should call:
SBDebugger::Initialize(); // (static function)
SBDebugger debugger (SBDebugger::Create());
// Use which ever file handles you wish
debugger.SetErrorFileHandle (stderr, false);
debugger.SetOutputFileHandle (stdout, false);
debugger.SetInputFileHandle (stdin, true);
// main loop
SBDebugger::Terminate(); // (static function)
SBDebugger::Initialize() and SBDebugger::Terminate() are ref counted to
ensure nothing gets destroyed too early when multiple clients might be
attached.
Cleaned up the command interpreter and the CommandObject and all subclasses
to take more appropriate arguments.
llvm-svn: 106615
Push this through all the breakpoint management code. Allow this to be set when the breakpoint is created.
Fix the Process classes so that a breakpoint hit that is not for a particular thread is not reported as a
breakpoint hit event for that thread.
Added a "breakpoint configure" command to allow you to reset any of the thread
specific options (or the ignore count.)
llvm-svn: 106078
type and sub-type, or an ELF e_machine value. Also added a generic CPU type
to the arch spec class so we can have a single arch definition that the LLDB
core code can use. Previously a lot of places in the code were using the
mach-o definitions from a macosx header file.
Switches over to using "llvm/Support/MachO.h" for the llvm::MachO::XXX for the
CPU types and sub types for mach-o ArchSpecs. Added "llvm/Support/ELF.h" so
we can use the "llvm::ELF::XXX" defines for the ELF ArchSpecs.
Got rid of all CPU_TYPE_ and CPU_SUBTYPE_ defines that were previously being
used in LLDB.
llvm-svn: 105806
The top of the header file seems to indicate that this was
intended to be over at include/lldb/Core but we should be in line
