for customizing "step-in" behavior (e.g. step-in doesn't step into code with no debug info), but also
the behavior of step-in/step-out and step-over when they step out of the frame they started in.
I also added as a proof of concept of this reworking a mode for stepping where stepping out of a frame
into a frame with no debug information will continue stepping out till it arrives at a frame that does
have debug information. This is useful when you are debugging callback based code where the callbacks
are separated from the code that initiated them by some library glue you don't care about, among other
things.

The many many benefits include:
1 - Input/Output/Error streams are now handled as real streams not a push style input
2 - auto completion in python embedded interpreter
3 - multi-line input for "script" and "expression" commands now allow you to edit previous/next lines using up and down arrow keys and this makes multi-line input actually a viable thing to use
4 - it is now possible to use curses to drive LLDB (please try the "gui" command)
We will need to deal with and fix any buildbot failures and tests and arise now that input/output and error are correctly hooked up in all cases.

Added two new GDB server packets to debugserver: "QSaveRegisterState" and "QRestoreRegiterState".
"QSaveRegisterState" makes the remote GDB server save all register values and it returns a save identifier as an unsigned integer. This packet can be used prior to running expressions to save all registers.
All registers can them we later restored with "QRestoreRegiterState:SAVEID" what SAVEID is the integer identifier that was returned from the call to QSaveRegisterState.
Cleaned up redundant code in lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::ThreadPlanCallFunction.
Moved the lldb_private::Thread::RegisterCheckpoint into its own header file and it is now in the lldb_private namespace. Trimmed down the RegisterCheckpoint class to omit stuff that wasn't used (the stack ID).
Added a few new virtual methods to lldb_private::RegisterContext that allow subclasses to efficiently save/restore register states and changed the RegisterContextGDBRemote to take advantage of these new calls.

It completes the job of using EvaluateExpressionOptions consistently throughout
the inferior function calling mechanism in lldb begun in Greg's patch r194009.
It removes a handful of alternate calls into the ClangUserExpression/ClangFunction/ThreadPlanCallFunction which
were there for convenience. Using the EvaluateExpressionOptions removes the need for them.
Using that it gets the --debug option from Greg's patch to work cleanly.
It also adds another EvaluateExpressionOption to not trap exceptions when running expressions. You shouldn't
use this option unless you KNOW your expression can't throw beyond itself. This is:

pure virtual base class and made StackFrame a subclass of that. As
I started to build on top of that arrangement today, I found that it
wasn't working out like I intended. Instead I'll try sticking with
the single StackFrame class -- there's too much code duplication to
make a more complicated class hierarchy sensible I think.

defines a protocol that all subclasses will implement. StackFrame
is currently the only subclass and the methods that Frame vends are
nearly identical to StackFrame's old methods.
Update all callers to use Frame*/Frame& instead of pointers to
StackFrames.
This is almost entirely a mechanical change that touches a lot of
the code base so I'm committing it alone. No new functionality is
added with this patch, no new subclasses of Frame exist yet.
I'll probably need to tweak some of the separation, possibly moving
some of StackFrame's methods up in to Frame, but this is a good
starting point.

To make this work this patch extends LLDB to:
- Explicitly track the link_map address for each module. This is effectively the module handle, not sure why it wasn't already being stored off anywhere. As an extension later, it would be nice if someone were to add support for printing this as part of the modules list.
- Allow reading the per-thread data pointer via ptrace. I have added support for Linux here. I'll be happy to add support for FreeBSD once this is reviewed. OS X does not appear to have __thread variables, so maybe we don't need it there. Windows support should eventually be workable along the same lines.
- Make DWARF expressions track which module they originated from.
- Add support for the DW_OP_GNU_push_tls_address DWARF opcode, as generated by gcc and recent versions of clang. Earlier versions of clang (such as 3.2, which is default on Ubuntu right now) do not generate TLS debug info correctly so can not be supported here.
- Understand the format of the pthread DTV block. This is where it gets tricky. We have three basic options here:
1) Call "dlinfo" or "__tls_get_addr" on the inferior and ask it directly. However this won't work on core dumps, and generally speaking it's not a good idea for the debugger to call functions itself, as it has the potential to not work depending on the state of the target.
2) Use libthread_db. This is what GDB does. However this option requires having a version of libthread_db on the host cross-compiled for each potential target. This places a large burden on the user, and would make it very hard to cross-debug from Windows to Linux, for example. Trying to build a library intended exclusively for one OS on a different one is not pleasant. GDB sidesteps the problem and asks the user to figure it out.
3) Parse the DTV structure ourselves. On initial inspection this seems to be a bad option, as the DTV structure (the format used by the runtime to manage TLS data) is not in fact a kernel data structure, it is implemented entirely in useerland in libc. Therefore the layout of it's fields are version and OS dependent, and are not standardized.
However, it turns out not to be such a problem. All OSes use basically the same algorithm (a per-module lookup table) as detailed in Ulrich Drepper's TLS ELF ABI document, so we can easily write code to decode it ourselves. The only question therefore is the exact field layouts required. Happily, the implementors of libpthread expose the structure of the DTV via metadata exported as symbols from the .so itself, designed exactly for this kind of thing. So this patch simply reads that metadata in, and re-implements libthread_db's algorithm itself. We thereby get cross-platform TLS lookup without either requiring third-party libraries, while still being independent of the version of libpthread being used.
Test case included.

A long time ago we start with clang types that were created by the symbol files and there were many functions in lldb_private::ClangASTContext that helped. Later we create ClangASTType which contains a clang::ASTContext and an opauque QualType, but we didn't switch over to fully using it. There were a lot of places where we would pass around a raw clang_type_t and also pass along a clang::ASTContext separately. This left room for error.
This checkin change all type code over to use ClangASTType everywhere and I cleaned up the interfaces quite a bit. Any code that was in ClangASTContext that was type related, was moved over into ClangASTType. All code that used these types was switched over to use all of the new goodness.

This re-submission of this patch fixes a problem where the code sometimes caused a deadlock. The Process::SetPrivateState method was locking the Process::m_private_state variable and then later calling ThreadList::DidStop, which locks the ThreadList mutex. Other methods in ThreadList which were being called from other threads lock the ThreadList mutex and then call Process::GetPrivateState which locks the Process::m_private_state mutex. To avoid deadlocks, Process::SetPrivateState now locks the ThreadList mutex before locking the Process::m_private_state mutex.

To not be virtual. The lldb_private::Thread now handles the correct caching and will call a new pure virtual function:
namespace lldb_private {
class Thread
{
virtual bool
CalculateStopInfo() = 0;

}
This function must be overridden by thead lldb_private::Thread subclass and the only thing it needs to do is to set the Thread::StopInfo() with the current stop reason and return true, or return false if there is no stop reason. The lldb_private::Thread class will take care of calling this function only when it is required. This allows lldb_private::Thread subclasses to be a bit simpler and not all need to duplicate the cache and invalidation settings.
Also renamed:
lldb::StopInfoSP
lldb_private::Thread::GetPrivateStopReason();

they explained the stop because they were at their "run to here" breakpoint, then deleted
that breakpoint, so when they got asked again, doh! I had done this for a couple of plans
in an ad hoc fashion, this just formalizes it.
Also add a "ResumeRequested" in Process so that the code in the completion handlers can
tell the ShouldStop logic they want to resume rather than just directly resuming. That allows
us to handle resuming in a more controlled fashion.
Also, SetPublicState can take a "restarted" flag, so that it doesn't drop the run lock when
the target was immediately restarted.

while we develop a better understanding of how to manage the thread lists in a platform-independant fashion.
Reviewed by: Daniel Malea
llvm-svn: 181323
This checkin aims to fix this. The process now has two thread lists: a real thread list for threads that are created by the lldb_private::Process subclass, and the user visible threads. The user visible threads are the same as the real threas when no OS plug-in in used. But when an OS plug-in is used, the user thread can be a combination of real and "memory" threads. Real threads can be placed inside of memory threads so that a thread appears to be different, but is still controlled by the actual real thread. When the thread list needs updating, the lldb_private::Process class will call the: lldb_private::Process::UpdateThreadList() function with the old real thread list, and the function is expected to fill in the new real thread list with the current state of the process. After this function, the process will check if there is an OS plug-in being used, and if so, it will give the old user thread list, the new real thread list and the OS plug-in will create the new user thread list from both of these lists. If there is no OS plug-in, the real thread list is the user thread list.
These changes keep the lldb_private::Process subclasses clean and no changes are required.

Modified the lldb_private::Thread to work much better with the OperatingSystem plug-ins. Operating system plug-ins can now return have a "core" key/value pair in each thread dictionary for the OperatingSystemPython plug-ins which allows the core threads to be contained with memory threads. It also allows these memory threads to be stepped, resumed, and controlled just as if they were the actual backing threads themselves.
A few things are introduced:
- lldb_private::Thread now has a GetProtocolID() method which returns the thread protocol ID for a given thread. The protocol ID (Thread::GetProtocolID()) is usually the same as the thread id (Thread::GetID()), but it can differ when a memory thread has its own id, but is backed by an actual API thread.
- Cleaned up the Thread::WillResume() code to do the mandatory parts in Thread::ShouldResume(), and let the thread subclasses override the Thread::WillResume() which is now just a notification.
- Cleaned up ClearStackFrames() implementations so that fewer thread subclasses needed to override them
- Changed the POSIXThread class a bit since it overrode Thread::WillResume(). It is doing the wrong thing by calling "Thread::SetResumeState()" on its own, this shouldn't be done by thread subclasses, but the current code might rely on it so I left it in with a TODO comment with an explanation.

I tracked down a leak that could happen when detaching from a process where the lldb_private::Process objects would stay around forever. This was caused by a eStateDetached event that was queued up on the lldb_private::Process private state thread listener. Since process events contain shared pointers to the process, this is dangerous if they don't get consume or cleared as having the lldb_private::Process class contain a collection of things that have a shared pointer to yourself is obviously bad.
To fix this I modified the Process::Finalize() function to clear this list. The actual thing that was holding onto the ModuleSP and thus the static archive, was a stack frame. Since the process wasn't going away, it still had thread objects and they still had frames. I modified the Thread::Destroy() to clear the stack frames to ensure this further doesn't happen.

Then make the Thread a Broadcaster, and get it to broadcast when the selected frame is changed (but only from the Command Line) and when Thread::ReturnFromFrame

command Destroy's the Thread you've just gotten.
Also fixed the ExecutionContextRef::Get*SP calls so they don't return invalid objects.
Also fixed the ExecutionContext::Has*Scope calls so they don't claim to have a scope if the object representing
that scope has been destroyed.

objects for the backlink to the lldb_private::Process. The issues we were
running into before was someone was holding onto a shared pointer to a
lldb_private::Thread for too long, and the lldb_private::Process parent object
would get destroyed and the lldb_private::Thread had a "Process &m_process"
member which would just treat whatever memory that used to be a Process as a
valid Process. This was mostly happening for lldb_private::StackFrame objects
that had a member like "Thread &m_thread". So this completes the internal
strong/weak changes.
Documented the ExecutionContext and ExecutionContextRef classes so that our
LLDB developers can understand when and where to use ExecutionContext and
ExecutionContextRef objects.
llvm-svn: 151009
the lldb_private::StackFrame objects hold onto a weak pointer to the thread
object. The lldb_private::StackFrame objects the the most volatile objects
we have as when we are doing single stepping, frames can often get lost or
thrown away, only to be re-created as another object that still refers to the
same frame. We have another bug tracking that. But we need to be able to
have frames no longer be able to get the thread when they are not part of
a thread anymore, and this is the first step (this fix makes that possible
but doesn't implement it yet).
Also changed lldb_private::ExecutionContextScope to return shared pointers to
all objects in the execution context to further thread harden the internals.
llvm-svn: 150871
frames might go away (the object itself, not the actual logical frame) when
we are single stepping due to the way we currently sometimes end up flushing
frames when stepping in/out/over. They later will come back to life
represented by another object yet they have the same StackID. Now when you get
a lldb::SBFrame object, it will track the frame it is initialized with until
the thread goes away or the StackID no longer exists in the stack for the
thread it was created on. It uses a weak_ptr to both the frame and thread and
also stores the StackID. These three items allow us to determine when the
stack frame object has gone away (the weak_ptr will be NULL) and allows us to
find the correct frame again. In our test suite we had such cases where we
were just getting lucky when something like this happened:
1 - stop at breakpoint
2 - get first frame in thread where we stopped
3 - run an expression that causes the program to JIT and run code
4 - run more expressions on the frame from step 2 which was very very luckily
still around inside a shared pointer, yet, not part of the current
thread (a new stack frame object had appeared with the same stack ID and
depth).
We now avoid all such issues and properly keep up to date, or we start
returning errors when the frame doesn't exist and always responds with
invalid answers.
Also fixed the UserSettingsController (not going to rewrite this just yet)
so that it doesn't crash on shutdown. Using weak_ptr's came in real handy to
track when the master controller has already gone away and this allowed me to
pull out the previous NotifyOwnerIsShuttingDown() patch as it is no longer
needed.
llvm-svn: 149231
due to RTTI worries since llvm and clang don't use RTTI, but I was able to
switch back with no issues as far as I can tell. Once the RTTI issue wasn't
an issue, we were looking for a way to properly track weak pointers to objects
to solve some of the threading issues we have been running into which naturally
led us back to std::tr1::weak_ptr. We also wanted the ability to make a shared
pointer from just a pointer, which is also easily solved using the
std::tr1::enable_shared_from_this class.
The main reason for this move back is so we can start properly having weak
references to objects. Currently a lldb_private::Thread class has a refrence
to its parent lldb_private::Process. This doesn't work well when we now hand
out a SBThread object that contains a shared pointer to a lldb_private::Thread
as this SBThread can be held onto by external clients and if they end up
using one of these objects we can easily crash.
So the next task is to start adopting std::tr1::weak_ptr where ever it makes
sense which we can do with lldb_private::Debugger, lldb_private::Target,
lldb_private::Process, lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::StackFrame, and
many more objects now that they are no longer using intrusive ref counted
pointer objects (you can't do std::tr1::weak_ptr functionality with intrusive
pointers).

the function it is being asked to step through, so that even if we get the trampoline
target wrong (for instance) we will still not lose control.
The other fix here is to tighten up the handling of the case where the current plan
doesn't explain the stop, but a plan above us does. In that case, if the plan that
does explain the stop says it is done, we need to clean up the plans below it and
continue on with our processing.

the type ID was the DIE offset in the DWARF for the .o file which is not

so it can uniquely identify the types.

shared pointers.
Changed the ExecutionContext over to use shared pointers for
the target, process, thread and frame since these objects can
easily go away at any time and any object that was holding onto
an ExecutionContext was running the risk of using a bad object.
Now that the shared pointers for target, process, thread and
frame are just a single pointer (they all use the instrusive
shared pointers) the execution context is much safer and still
the same size.
Made the shared pointers in the the ExecutionContext class protected
and made accessors for all of the various ways to get at the pointers,

Set the default Source File & line to main (if it can be found.) at startup. Selecting the current thread & or frame resets
the current source file & line, and "source list" as well as the breakpoint command "break set -l <NUM>" will use the

plug-ins are add on plug-ins for the lldb_private::Process class that can add
thread contexts that are read from memory. It is common in kernels to have
a lot of threads that are not currently executing on any cores (JTAG debugging
also follows this sort of thing) and are context switched out whose state is
stored in memory data structures. Clients can now subclass the OperatingSystem
plug-ins and then make sure their Create functions correcltly only enable
themselves when the right binary/target triple are being debugged. The
operating system plug-ins get a chance to attach themselves to processes just
after launching or attaching and are given a lldb_private::Process object
pointer which can be inspected to see if the main executable, target triple,
or any shared libraries match a case where the OS plug-in should be used.
Currently the OS plug-ins can create new threads, define the register contexts
for these threads (which can all be different if desired), and populate and
manage the thread info (stop reason, registers in the register context) as
the debug session goes on.

cause extra shared pointer references to one or more modules to be leaked.
This would cause many object files to stay around the life of LLDB, so after
a recompile and rexecution, we would keep adding more and more memory. After
fixing the leak, we found many cases where leaked stack frames were still
being used and causing crashes in the test suite. These are now all resolved.
llvm-svn: 137516
was failing if the DWARF was laid out in a certain way. The way
we detect C++ classes is now more robust so that a class method
can be defined outside of the class and refer to a definition inside
the class with a DW_AT_specification or DW_AT_abstract_origin attribute.
Fixed a case in Thread.cpp where we were looking up info in the frame
when we didn't need to. This was from some changes to support external
editors. Now the info is only looked up if needed.
llvm-svn: 137436
Fixed ThreadPlanCallFunction::ReportRegisterState(...) to only dump when
verbose logging is enabled and fixed the function to use the new
RegisterValue method of reading registers.
Fixed the GDB remote client to not send a continue packet after receiving
stdout or stderr from the inferior process.

threads, and stack frame down in the lldb_private::Process,
lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::StackFrameList and the
lldb_private::StackFrame classes. We had some command line
commands that had duplicate versions of the process status
output ("thread list" and "process status" for example).
Removed the "file" command and placed it where it should
have been: "target create". Made an alias for "file" to
"target create" so we stay compatible with GDB commands.
We can now have multple usable targets in lldb at the
same time. This is nice for comparing two runs of a program
or debugging more than one binary at the same time. The
new command is "target select <target-idx>" and also to see
a list of the current targets you can use the new "target list"
command. The flow in a debug session can be:
(lldb) target create /path/to/exe/a.out
(lldb) breakpoint set --name main
(lldb) run
... hit breakpoint
(lldb) target create /bin/ls
(lldb) run /tmp
Process 36001 exited with status = 0 (0x00000000)
(lldb) target list
Current targets:
target #0: /tmp/args/a.out ( arch=x86_64-apple-darwin, platform=localhost, pid=35999, state=stopped )
* target #1: /bin/ls ( arch=x86_64-apple-darwin, platform=localhost, pid=36001, state=exited )
(lldb) target select 0
Current targets:
* target #0: /tmp/args/a.out ( arch=x86_64-apple-darwin, platform=localhost, pid=35999, state=stopped )
target #1: /bin/ls ( arch=x86_64-apple-darwin, platform=localhost, pid=36001, state=exited )
(lldb) bt
* thread #1: tid = 0x2d03, 0x0000000100000b9a a.out`main + 42 at main.c:16, stop reason = breakpoint 1.1

frame #1: 0x0000000100000b64 a.out`start + 52
Above we created a target for "a.out" and ran and hit a
breakpoint at "main". Then we created a new target for /bin/ls
and ran it. Then we listed the targest and selected our original
"a.out" program, so we showed two concurent debug sessions
going on at the same time.

llvm-svn: 123970
an issue with the way the UnwindLLDB was handing out RegisterContexts: it
was making shared pointers to register contexts and then handing out just
the pointers (which would get put into shared pointers in the thread and
stack frame classes) and cause double free issues. MallocScribble helped to
find these issues after I did some other cleanup. To help avoid any
RegisterContext issue in the future, all code that deals with them now
returns shared pointers to the register contexts so we don't end up with
multiple deletions. Also now that the RegisterContext class doesn't require
a stack frame, we patched a memory leak where a StackFrame object was being
created and leaked.
Made the RegisterContext class not have a pointer to a StackFrame object as
one register context class can be used for N inlined stack frames so there is
not a 1 - 1 mapping. Updates the ExecutionContextScope part of the
RegisterContext class to never return a stack frame to indicate this when it
is asked to recreate the execution context. Now register contexts point to the
concrete frame using a concrete frame index. Concrete frames are all of the
frames that are actually formed on the stack of a thread. These concrete frames
can be turned into one or more user visible frames due to inlining. Each
inlined stack frame has the exact same register context (shared via shared
pointers) as any parent inlined stack frames all the way up to the concrete
frame itself.
So now the stack frames and the register contexts should behave much better.
llvm-svn: 122976
was done as an settings variable in the process for now. We will eventually
move all environment stuff over to the target, but we will leave it with the
process for now. The default setting is for a process to inherit the host
environment. This can be disabled by setting the "inherit-env" setting to
false in the process.
llvm-svn: 120862
changing it to use it. There was an extra parameter added to the static
accessor global user settings controllers that wasn't needed. A bool was being
used as a parameter to the accessor just so it could be used to clean up
the global user settings controller which is now fixed by splitting up the
initialization into the "static void Class::Initialize()", access into the
"static UserSettingsControllerSP & Class::GetSettingsController()", and
cleanup into "static void Class::Terminate()".
Also added initialize and terminate calls to the logging code to avoid issues
when LLDB is shutting down. There were cases after the logging was switched
over to use shared pointers where we could crash if the global destructor
chain was being run and it causes the log to be destroyed and any any logging
occurred.
llvm-svn: 119757
logic that supported calling functions with arbitrary
arguments. We use ClangFunction for this, and the
low-level logic is only required to support one or two

llvm-svn: 118871
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
it logs the function calls, their arguments and the return values. This is not
complete or polished, but I am committing it now, at the request of someone who
really wants to use it, even though it's not really done. It currently does not
attempt to log all the functions, just the most important ones. I will be
making further adjustments to the API logging code over the next few days/weeks.
(Suggestions for improvements are welcome).
Update the Python build scripts to re-build the swig C++ file whenever
the python-extensions.swig file is modified.
Correct the help for 'log enable' command (give it the correct number & type of
arguments).
llvm-svn: 117349
Added frame relative frame selection to "frame select". You can now select
frames relative to the current frame (which defaults to zero if the current
frame hasn't yet been set for a thread):
The gdb "up" command can be done as:
(lldb) frame select -r 1
The gdb "down" command can be done as:
(lldb) frame select -r -1
Place the following in your ~/.lldbinit file for "up" and "down":
command alias up frame select -r 1
command alias down frame select -r -1
llvm-svn: 116176
instance:
settings set frame-format <string>
settings set thread-format <string>
This allows users to control the information that is seen when dumping
threads and frames. The default values are set such that they do what they
used to do prior to changing over the the user defined formats.
This allows users with terminals that can display color to make different
items different colors using the escape control codes. A few alias examples
that will colorize your thread and frame prompts are:
settings set frame-format 'frame #${frame.index}: \033[0;33m${frame.pc}\033[0m{ \033[1;4;36m${module.file.basename}\033[0;36m ${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}\033[0m}{ \033[0;35mat \033[1;35m${line.file.basename}:${line.number}}\033[0m\n'
settings set thread-format 'thread #${thread.index}: \033[1;33mtid\033[0;33m = ${thread.id}\033[0m{, \033[0;33m${frame.pc}\033[0m}{ \033[1;4;36m${module.file.basename}\033[0;36m ${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}\033[0m}{, \033[1;35mstop reason\033[0;35m = ${thread.stop-reason}\033[0m}{, \033[1;36mname = \033[0;36m${thread.name}\033[0m}{, \033[1;32mqueue = \033[0;32m${thread.queue}}\033[0m\n'
A quick web search for "colorize terminal output" should allow you to see what
you can do to make your output look like you want it.
The "settings set" commands above can of course be added to your ~/.lldbinit
file for permanent use.
Changed the pure virtual
void ExecutionContextScope::Calculate (ExecutionContext&);
To:
void ExecutionContextScope::CalculateExecutionContext (ExecutionContext&);
I did this because this is a class that anything in the execution context
heirarchy inherits from and "target->Calculate (exe_ctx)" didn't always tell
you what it was really trying to do unless you look at the parameter.

replacing the "(lldb)" prompt, the "frame #1..." displays when doing
stack backtracing and the "thread #1....". This will allow you to see
exactly the information that you want to see where you want to see it.
This currently isn't hookup up to the prompts yet, but it will be soon.
So what is the format of the prompts? Prompts can contain variables that
have access to the current program state. Variables are text that appears
in between a prefix of "${" and ends with a "}". Some of the interesting
variables include:
// The frame index (0, 1, 2, 3...)
${frame.index}
// common frame registers with generic names
${frame.pc}
${frame.sp}
${frame.fp}
${frame.ra}
${frame.flags}
// Access to any frame registers by name where REGNAME is any register name:
${frame.reg.REGNAME}
// The current compile unit file where the frame is located
${file.basename}
${file.fullpath}
// Function information
${function.name}
${function.pc-offset}
// Process info
${process.file.basename}
${process.file.fullpath}
${process.id}
${process.name}
// Thread info
${thread.id}
${thread.index}
${thread.name}
${thread.queue}
${thread.stop-reason}
// Target information
${target.arch}
// The current module for the current frame (the shared library or executable
// that contains the current frame PC value):
${module.file.basename}
${module.file.fullpath}
// Access to the line entry for where the current frame is when your thread
// is stopped:
${line.file.basename}
${line.file.fullpath}
${line.number}
${line.start-addr}
${line.end-addr}
Many times the information that you might have in your prompt might not be
available and you won't want it to print out if it isn't valid. To take care
of this you can enclose everything that must resolve into a scope. A scope
is starts with '{' and ends with '}'. For example in order to only display
the current file and line number when the information is available the format
would be:
"{ at {$line.file.basename}:${line.number}}"
Broken down this is:
start the scope: "{"
format whose content will only be displayed if all information is available:
"at {$line.file.basename}:${line.number}"
end the scope: "}"
We currently can represent the infomration we see when stopped at a frame:
frame #0: 0x0000000100000e85 a.out`main + 4 at test.c:19
with the following format:
"frame #${frame.index}: ${frame.pc} {${module.file.basename}`}{${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}{ at ${line.file.basename}:${line.number}}\n"
This breaks down to always print:
"frame #${frame.index}: ${frame.pc} "
only print the module followed by a tick if we have a valid module:
"{${module.file.basename}`}"
print the function name with optional offset:
"{${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}"
print the line info if it is available:
"{ at ${line.file.basename}:${line.number}}"
then finish off with a newline:
"\n"
Notice you can also put newlines ("\n") and tabs and everything else you
are used to putting in a format string when desensitized with the \ character.
Cleaned up some of the user settings controller subclasses. All of them
do not have any global settings variables and were all implementing stubs

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
might dump file paths that allows the dumping of full paths or just the
basenames. Switched the stack frame dumping code to use just the basenames for
the files instead of the full path.
Modified the StackID class to no rely on needing the start PC for the current
function/symbol since we can use the SymbolContextScope to uniquely identify
that, unless there is no symbol context scope. In that case we can rely upon
the current PC value. This saves the StackID from having to calculate the
start PC when the StackFrame::GetStackID() accessor is called.
Also improved the StackID less than operator to correctly handle inlined stack
frames in the same stack.
llvm-svn: 112867
instead of trying to maintain the real frame list (unwind frames) and an
inline frame list. The information is cheap to produce when we already have
looked up a block and was making stack frame uniquing difficult when trying
to use the previous stack when making the current stack.
We now maintain the previous value object lists for common frames between
a previous and current frames so we will be able to tell when variable values
change.
llvm-svn: 112277
code stepping. Also we now store the stack frames for the current and previous
stops in the thread in std::auto_ptr objects. When we create a thread stack
frame list we pass the previous frame into it so it can re-use the frames
and maintain will allow for variable changes to be detected. I will implement
the stack frame reuse next.
llvm-svn: 112152
functionality into StackFrameList. This will allow us to copy the previous
stack backtrace from the previous stop into another variable so we can re-use
as much as possible from the previous stack backtrace.
llvm-svn: 112007
has inlined functions that all started at the same address, then the inlined
backtrace would not produce correct stack frames.
Also cleaned up and inlined a lot of stuff in lldb_private::Address.
Added a function to StackFrame to detect if the frame is a concrete frame so
we can detect the difference between actual frames and inlined frames.
llvm-svn: 111989
complex inlined examples.
StackFrame classes don't have a "GetPC" anymore, they have "GetFrameCodeAddress()".
This is because inlined frames will have a PC value that is the same as the
concrete frame that owns the inlined frame, yet the code locations for the
frame can be different. We also need to be able to get the real PC value for
a given frame so that variables evaluate correctly. To get the actual PC
value for a frame you can use:
addr_t pc = frame->GetRegisterContext()->GetPC();
Some issues with the StackFrame stomping on its own symbol context were
resolved which were causing the information to change for a frame when the
stack ID was calculated. Also the StackFrame will now correctly store the
symbol context resolve flags for any extra bits of information that were
looked up (if you ask for a block only and you find one, you will alwasy have
the compile unit and function).
llvm-svn: 111964
which is now on by default. Frames are gotten from the unwinder as concrete
frames, then if inline frames are to be shown, extra information to track
and reconstruct these frames is cached with each Thread and exanded as needed.
I added an inline height as part of the lldb_private::StackID class, the class
that helps us uniquely identify stack frames. This allows for two frames to
shared the same call frame address, yet differ only in inline height.
Fixed setting breakpoint by address to not require addresses to resolve.

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.

without having to use RTTI.
Removed the ThreadPlanContinue and replaced with a ShouldAutoContinue query that serves the same purpose. Having to push
