This is done by finding the types that are forward declarations that come from a module, and loading that module's debug info in a separate lldb_private::Module, and copying the type over into the current module using a ClangASTImporter object. ClangASTImporter objects are already used to copy types from on clang::ASTContext to another for expressions so the type copying code has been around for a while.
A new FindTypes variant was added to SymbolVendor and SymbolFile:
size_t
SymbolVendor::FindTypes (const std::vector<CompilerContext> &context, bool append, TypeMap& types);
size_t
SymbolVendor::FindTypes (const std::vector<CompilerContext> &context, bool append, TypeMap& types);
The CompilerContext is a way to represent the exact context of a type and pass it through an agnostic API boundary so that we can find that exact context elsewhere in another file. This was required here because we can have a module that has submodules, both of which have a "foo" type.
I am not able to add tests for this yet as we currently don't build our C/C++/ObjC binaries with the clang binary that we build. There are some driver issues where it can't find the header files for the C and C++ standard library which makes compiling these tests hard. We can't also guarantee that if we are building with clang that it supporst the exact format of -gmodule debugging that we are trying to test. We have had other versions of clang that had a different implementation of -gmodule debugging that we are no longer supporting, so we can't enable tests if we are building with clang without compiling something and looking at the structure of the DWARF that was generated to ensure that it is the format we can actually use.

This cleans up type systems to be more pluggable. Prior to this we had issues:
- Module, SymbolFile, and many others has "ClangASTContext &GetClangASTContext()" functions. All have been switched over to use "TypeSystem *GetTypeSystemForLanguage()"
- Cleaned up any places that were using the GetClangASTContext() functions to use TypeSystem
- Cleaned up Module so that it no longer has dedicated type system member variables:
lldb::ClangASTContextUP m_ast; ///< The Clang AST context for this module.
lldb::GoASTContextUP m_go_ast; ///< The Go AST context for this module.
Now we have a type system map:
typedef std::map<lldb::LanguageType, lldb::TypeSystemSP> TypeSystemMap;
TypeSystemMap m_type_system_map; ///< A map of any type systems associated with this module
- Many places in code were using ClangASTContext static functions to place with CompilerType objects and add modifiers (const, volatile, restrict) and to make typedefs, L and R value references and more. These have been made into CompilerType functions that are abstract:
class CompilerType
{
...
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
// Return a new CompilerType that is a L value reference to this type if
// this type is valid and the type system supports L value references,
// else return an invalid type.
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
CompilerType
GetLValueReferenceType () const;
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
// Return a new CompilerType that is a R value reference to this type if
// this type is valid and the type system supports R value references,
// else return an invalid type.
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
CompilerType
GetRValueReferenceType () const;
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
// Return a new CompilerType adds a const modifier to this type if
// this type is valid and the type system supports const modifiers,
// else return an invalid type.
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
CompilerType
AddConstModifier () const;
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
// Return a new CompilerType adds a volatile modifier to this type if
// this type is valid and the type system supports volatile modifiers,
// else return an invalid type.
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
CompilerType
AddVolatileModifier () const;
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
// Return a new CompilerType adds a restrict modifier to this type if
// this type is valid and the type system supports restrict modifiers,
// else return an invalid type.
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
CompilerType
AddRestrictModifier () const;
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
// Create a typedef to this type using "name" as the name of the typedef
// this type is valid and the type system supports typedefs, else return
// an invalid type.
//----------------------------------------------------------------------
CompilerType
CreateTypedef (const char *name, const CompilerDeclContext &decl_ctx) const;
};
Other changes include:
- Removed "CompilerType TypeSystem::GetIntTypeFromBitSize(...)" and CompilerType TypeSystem::GetFloatTypeFromBitSize(...) and replaced it with "CompilerType TypeSystem::GetBuiltinTypeForEncodingAndBitSize(lldb::Encoding encoding, size_t bit_size);"
- Fixed code in Type.h to not request the full type for a type for no good reason, just request the forward type and let the type expand as needed

Create a new "lldb_private::CompilerDeclContext" class that will replace all direct uses of "clang::DeclContext" when used in compiler agnostic code, yet still allow for conversion to clang::DeclContext subclasses by clang specific code. This completes the abstraction of type parsing by removing all "clang::" references from the SymbolFileDWARF. The new "lldb_private::CompilerDeclContext" class abstracts decl contexts found in compiler type systems so they can be used in internal API calls. The TypeSystem is required to support CompilerDeclContexts with new pure virtual functions that start with "DeclContext" in the member function names. Converted all code that used lldb_private::ClangNamespaceDecl over to use the new CompilerDeclContext class and removed the ClangNamespaceDecl.cpp and ClangNamespaceDecl.h files.
Removed direct use of clang APIs from SBType and now use the abstract type systems to correctly explore types.
Bulk renames for things that used to return a ClangASTType which is now CompilerType:
"Type::GetClangFullType()" to "Type::GetFullCompilerType()"
"Type::GetClangLayoutType()" to "Type::GetLayoutCompilerType()"
"Type::GetClangForwardType()" to "Type::GetForwardCompilerType()"
"Value::GetClangType()" to "Value::GetCompilerType()"
"Value::SetClangType (const CompilerType &)" to "Value::SetCompilerType (const CompilerType &)"
"ValueObject::GetClangType ()" to "ValueObject::GetCompilerType()"
many more renames that are similar.

Another step towards isolating all language/AST specific code into the files to further abstract specific implementations of parsing types for a given language.

- ObjectFile::GetSymtab() and ObjectFile::ClearSymtab() no longer takes any flags
- Module coordinates with the object files and contain a unified section list so that object file and symbol file can share sections when they need to, yet contain their own sections.
Other cleanups:
- Fixed Symbol::GetByteSize() to not have the symbol table compute the byte sizes on the fly
- Modified the ObjectFileMachO class to compute symbol sizes all at once efficiently
- Modified the Symtab class to store a file address lookup table for more efficient lookups
- Removed Section::Finalize() and SectionList::Finalize() as they did nothing
- Improved performance of the detection of symbol files that have debug maps by excluding stripped files and core files, debug files, object files and stubs
- Added the ability to tell if an ObjectFile has been stripped with ObjectFile::IsStripped() (used this for the above performance improvement)

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.

to launch a process for debugging. Since this isn't supported on all platforms,
we need to do what we used to do if this isn't supported. I added:
bool
Platform::CanDebugProcess ();
This will get checked before trying to launch a process for debugging and then
fall back to launching the process through the current host debugger. This
should solve the issue for linux and keep the platform code clean.
Centralized logging code for logging errors, warnings and logs when reporting
things for modules or symbol files. Both lldb_private::Module and
lldb_private::SymbolFile now have the following member functions:
void
LogMessage (Log *log, const char *format, ...);
void
ReportWarning (const char *format, ...);
void
ReportError (const char *format, ...);
These will all output the module name and object (if any) such as:
"error: lldb.so ...."
"warning: my_archive.a(foo.o) ...."
This will keep the output consistent and stop a lot of logging calls from
having to try and output all of the information that uniquely identifies
a module or symbol file. Many places in the code were grabbing the path to the
object file manually and if the module represented a .o file in an archive, we
would see log messages like:
error: foo.a - some error happened

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.

comes from by using a virtual function to provide it from the Module's
SymbolVendor by default. This allows the DWARF parser, when being used to
parse DWARF in .o files with a parent DWARF + debug map parser, to get its
type list from the DWARF + debug map parser so when we go and find full
definitions for types (that might come from other .o files), we can use the
type list from the debug map parser. Otherwise we ended up mixing clang types
from one .o file (say a const pointer to a forward declaration "class A") with
the a full type from another .o file. This causes expression parsing, when
copying the clang types from those parsed by the DWARF parser into the
expression AST, to fail -- for good reason. Now all types are created in the
same list.
Also added host support for crash description strings that can be set before
doing a piece of work. On MacOSX, this ties in with CrashReporter support
that allows a string to be dispalyed when the app crashes and allows
LLDB.framework to print a description string in the crash log. Right now this
is hookup up the the CommandInterpreter::HandleCommand() where each command
notes that it is about to be executed, so if we crash while trying to do this
command, we should be able to see the command that caused LLDB to exit. For
all other platforms, this is a nop.
