This either needs to be static, or forced inline, or in a separate
source file. Given that we only have one function in this
UuidCompatibility.h, I think forced inline for the handful of uses
of it may be best.
Add support to Mach-O corefiles and to live gdb remote serial protocol
connections for the corefile/remote stub to provide a list of load
addresses of binaries that should be found & loaded by lldb, and nothing
else. lldb will try to parse the binary out of memory, and if it can
find a UUID, try to find a binary & its debug information based on the
UUID, falling back to using the memory image if it must.
A bit of code unification from three parts of lldb that were loading
individual binaries already, so there is a shared method in
DynamicLoader to handle all of the variations they were doing.
Re-landing this with a uuid_is_null() implementation added to
Utility/UuidCompatibility.h for non-Darwin systems.

Checking if a path is absolute can be expensive and currently the result is not cached in the FileSpec object. This patch adds caching and also code to clear the cache if the file is modified.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D130396
Resubmission of https://reviews.llvm.org/D130309 with the 2 patches that fixed the linux buildbot, and new windows fixes.
The FileSpec APIs allow users to modify instance variables directly by getting a non const reference to the directory and filename instance variables. This makes it impossible to control all of the times the FileSpec object is modified so we can clear cached member variables like m_resolved and with an upcoming patch caching if the file is relative or absolute. This patch modifies the APIs of FileSpec so no one can modify the directory or filename instance variables directly by adding set accessors and by removing the get accessors that are non const.
Many clients were using FileSpec::GetCString(...) which returned a unique C string from a ConstString'ified version of the result of GetPath() which returned a std::string. This caused many locations to use this convenient function incorrectly and could cause many strings to be added to the constant string pool that didn't need to. Most clients were converted to using FileSpec::GetPath().c_str() when possible. Other clients were modified to use the newly renamed version of this function which returns an actualy ConstString:
ConstString FileSpec::GetPathAsConstString(bool denormalize = true) const;
This avoids the issue where people were getting an already uniqued "const char *" that came from a ConstString only to put the "const char *" back into a "ConstString" object. By returning the ConstString instead of a "const char *" clients can be more efficient with the result.
The patch:
- Removes the non const GetDirectory() and GetFilename() get accessors
- Adds set accessors to replace the above functions: SetDirectory() and SetFilename().
- Adds ClearDirectory() and ClearFilename() to replace usage of the FileSpec::GetDirectory().Clear()/FileSpec::GetFilename().Clear() call sites
- Fixed all incorrect usage of FileSpec::GetCString() to use FileSpec::GetPath().c_str() where appropriate, and updated other call sites that wanted a ConstString to use the newly returned ConstString appropriately and efficiently.

Introduce a new %Stdio notification category and use it to send process
output asynchronously when running in non-stop mode. This is an LLDB
extension since GDB does not use the 'O' packet for process output,
just for replies to 'qRcmd' packets.
Using the async notification mechanism implies that only the first
output packet is sent immediately to the client. The client needs
to request subsequent notifications (if any) using the new vStdio packet
(that works pretty much like vStopped for the Stop notification queue).
The packet handler in lldb-server tests is updated to handle the async
stdio packets in addition to the regular O packets. However, due
to the implications noted above, it can only handle the first output
packet sent by the server. Subsequent packets need to be explicitly
requested via vStdio.

It turns out that cgroup filtering is relatively trivial and works
really nicely. Thid diffs adds automatic cgroup filtering when in
per-cpu mode, unless a new --disable-cgroup-filtering flag is passed in
the start command. At least on Meta machines, all processes are spawned
inside a cgroup by default, which comes super handy, because per cpu
tracing is now much more precise.
A manual test gave me this result
- Without filtering:
Total number of trace items: 36083
Total number of continuous executions found: 229
Number of continuous executions for this thread: 2
Total number of PSB blocks found: 98
Number of PSB blocks for this thread 2
Total number of unattributed PSB blocks found: 38
- With filtering:
Total number of trace items: 87756
Total number of continuous executions found: 123
Number of continuous executions for this thread: 2
Total number of PSB blocks found: 10
Number of PSB blocks for this thread 3
Total number of unattributed PSB blocks found: 2
Filtering gives us great results. The number of instructions collected
more than double (probalby because we have less noise in the trace), and
we have much less unattributed PSBs blocks and unrelated PSBs in
general. The ones that are unrelated probably belong to other processes
in the same cgroup.

LLDB supports having globbing regexes in the process launch arguments
that will be resolved using the user's shell. This requires that we pass
the launch args to the shell and then read back the expanded arguments
using LLDB's argdumper utility.
As the shell will not just expand the globbing regexes but all special
characters, we need to escape all non-globbing charcters such as $, &,
<, >, etc. as those otherwise are interpreted and removed in the step
where we expand the globbing characters. Also because the special
characters are shell-specific, LLDB needs to maintain a list of all the
characters that need to be escaped for each specific shell.
This patch adds the list of special characters that need to be escaped
for fish. Without this patch on systems where fish is the user's shell
having any of these special characters in your arguments or path to
the binary will cause the process launch to fail. E.g., `lldb -- ./calc
1<2` is failing without this patch. The same happens if the absolute
path to calc is in a directory that contains for example parentheses
or other special characters.

Implement the support for the vKill packet. This is the modern packet
used by the GDB Remote Serial Protocol to kill one of the debugged
processes. Unlike the `k` packet, it has well-defined semantics.
The `vKill` packet takes the PID of the process to kill, and always
replies with an `OK` reply (rather than the exit status, as LLGS does
for `k` packets at the moment). Additionally, unlike the `k` packet
it does not cause the connection to be terminated once the last process
is killed — the client needs to close it explicitly.

Drop the thread-safe flag and make the locking strategy the
responsibility of the individual log handler.
Previously we got away with a non-thread safe mode because we were using
unbuffered streams that rely on the underlying syscalls/OS for
synchronization. With the introduction of log handlers, we can have
arbitrary logic involved in writing out the logs. With this patch the
log handlers can pick the most appropriate locking strategy for their
particular implementation.

25c8a061c5 / D127048 added an option
for setting the ABI to GNU.
When an object file is loaded, there's only minimal verification
done for the architecture spec set for it, if the object file only
provides one.
However, for i386 object files, the PECOFF object file plugin
provides two architectures, i386-pc-windows and i686-pc-windows.
This picks a totally different codepath in
TargetList::CreateTargetInternal, where it's treated as a fat
binary. This goes through more verifications to see if the
architectures provided by the object file matches what the
platform plugin supports.
The PlatformWindows() constructor explicitly adds the
"i386-pc-windows" and "i686-pc-windows" architectures (even when
running on other architectures), which allows this "fat binary
verification" to succeed for the i386 object files that provide
two architectures.
However, after that commit, if the object file is advertised with
the different environment (either when lldb is built in a mingw
environment, or if that setting is set), the fat binary validation
won't accept the file any longer.
Update ArchSpec::IsEqualTo with more logic for the Windows use
cases; mismatching vendors is not an issue (they don't have any
practical effect on Windows), and GNU and MSVC environments are
compatible to the point that PlatformWindows can handle object
files for both environments/ABIs.
As a separate path forward, one could also consider to stop returning
two architecture specs from ObjectFilePECOFF::GetModuleSpecifications
for i386 files.

Implement the support for %Stop asynchronous notification packet format
in LLGS. This does not implement full support for non-stop mode for
threaded programs -- process plugins continue stopping all threads
on every event. However, it will be used to implement asynchronous
events in multiprocess debugging.
The non-stop protocol is enabled using QNonStop packet. When it is
enabled, the server uses notification protocol instead of regular stop
replies. Since all threads are always stopped, notifications are always
generated for all active threads and copied into stop notification
queue.
If the queue was empty, the initial asynchronous %Stop notification
is sent to the client immediately. The client needs to (eventually)
acknowledge the notification by sending the vStopped packet, in which
case it is popped from the queue and the stop reason for the next thread
is reported. This continues until notification queue is empty again,
in which case an OK reply is sent.
Asychronous notifications are also used for vAttach results and program
exits. The `?` packet uses a hybrid approach -- it returns the first
stop reason synchronously, and exposes the stop reasons for remaining
threads via vStopped queue.
The change includes a test case for a program generating a segfault
on 3 threads. The server is expected to generate a stop notification
for the segfaulting thread, along with the notifications for the other
running threads (with "no stop reason"). This verifies that the stop
reasons are correctly reported for all threads, and that notification
queue works.

llvm's JSON parser supports 64 bit integers, but other tools like the

- use DenseMap<ConstString, _> instead of std::unordered_map<ConstString, _>, which is more idiomatic and possibly performant.
- deduplicate some code in Trace.cpp by using helper functions for fetching in maps
- stop using size and offset when fetching binary data, because we in fact read the entire buffers all the time. If we ever need streaming, we can implement it then. Now, the size is used only to check that we are getting the correct amount of data. This is useful because in some cases determining the size doesn't involve fetching the actual data.
- added back the x86_64 macro to the perf tests
- added more documentation
- simplified some file handling

This is the final functional patch to support intel pt decoding per cpu.
It works by doing the following:
- First, all context switches are split by tid and sorted in order. This produces a list of continuous executes per thread per core.
- Then, all intel pt subtraces are split by PSB boundaries and assigned to individual thread continuous executions on the same core by doing simple TSC-based comparisons.
- With this, we have, per thread, a sorted list of continuous executions each one with a list of intel pt subtraces. Up to this point, this is really fast because no instructions were actually decoded.
- Then, each thread can be decoded by traversing their continuous executions and intel pt subtraces. An advantage of having these continuous executions is that we can identify if a continuous exexecution doesn't have intel pt data, and thus has a gap in it. We can later to more sofisticated comparisons to identify if within a continuous execution there are gaps.
I'm adding a test as well.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D126394
- Add the logic that parses all cpu context switch traces and produces blocks of continuous executions, which will be later used to assign intel pt subtraces to threads and to identify gaps. This logic can also identify if the context switch trace is malformed.
- The continuous executions blocks are able to indicate when there were some contention issues when producing the context switch trace. See the inline comments for more information.
- Update the 'dump info' command to show information and stats related to the multicore decoding flow, including timing about context switch decoding.
- Add the logic to conver nanoseconds to TSCs.
- Fix a bug when returning the context switches. Now they data returned makes sense and even empty traces can be returned from lldb-server.
- Finish the necessary bits for loading and saving a multi-core trace bundle from disk.
- Change some size_t to uint64_t for compatibility with 32 bit systems.
Tested by saving a trace session of a program that sleeps 100 times, it was able to produce the following 'dump info' text:

This diff is massive, but it's because it connects the client with lldb-server
and also ensures that the postmortem case works.
- Flatten the postmortem trace schema. The reason is that the schema has become quite complex due to the new multicore case, which defeats the original purpose of having a schema that could work for every trace plug-in. At this point, it's better that each trace plug-in defines it's own full schema. This means that the only common field is "type".
-- Because of this new approach, I merged the "common" trace load and saving functionalities into the IntelPT one. This simplified the code quite a bit. If we eventually implement another trace plug-in, we can see then what we could reuse.
-- The new schema, which is flattened, has now better comments and is parsed better. A change I did was to disallow hex addresses, because they are a bit error prone. I'm asking now to print the address in decimal.
-- Renamed "intel" to "GenuineIntel" in the schema because that's what you see in /proc/cpuinfo.
- Implemented reading the context switch trace data buffer. I had to do
some refactors to do that cleanly.
-- A major change that I did here was to simplify the perf_event circular buffer reading logic. It was too complex. Maybe the original Intel author had something different in mind.
- Implemented all the necessary bits to read trace.json files with per-core data.
- Implemented all the necessary bits to save to disk per-core trace session.
- Added a test that ensures that parsing and saving to disk works.

- Simplify the tscPerfZeroConversion struct and schema. It used to extend a base abstract class, but I'm doubting that we'll ever add other conversion mechanisms because all modern kernels support perf zero. It is also the one who is supposed to work with the timestamps produced by the context switch trace, so expecting it is imperative.

should not receive as exceptions (some will get converted to BSD
signals instead). This is really the only stable way to ensure that
a Mach exception gets converted to it's equivalent BSD signal. For
programs that rely on BSD signal handlers, this has to happen or you
can't even get the program to invoke the signal handler when under
the debugger.
This builds on a previous solution to this problem which required you
start debugserver with the -U flag. This was not very discoverable
and required lldb be the one to launch debugserver, which is not always
the case.

This diffs implements per-core tracing on lldb-server. It also includes tests that ensure that tracing can be initiated from the client and that the jLLDBGetState ppacket returns the list of trace buffers per core.
This doesn't include any decoder changes.
Finally, this makes some little changes here and there improving the existing code.
A specific piece of code that can't reliably be tested is when tracing
per core fails due to permissions. In this case we add a
troubleshooting message and this is the manual test:
```
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid set to 1
(lldb) process trace start --per-core-tracing error: perf event syscall failed: Permission denied
You might need that /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid has a value of 0 or -1.
