This new command looks much like "memory read"
and mirrors its basic behaviour.
(lldb) memory tag read new_buf_ptr new_buf_ptr+32
Logical tag: 0x9
Allocation tags:
[0x900fffff7ffa000, 0x900fffff7ffa010): 0x9
[0x900fffff7ffa010, 0x900fffff7ffa020): 0x0
Important proprties:
* The end address is optional and defaults to reading
1 tag if ommitted
* It is an error to try to read tags if the architecture
or process doesn't support it, or if the range asked
for is not tagged.
* It is an error to read an inverted range (end < begin)
(logical tags are removed for this check so you can
pass tagged addresses here)
* The range will be expanded to fit the tagging granule,
so you can get more tags than simply (end-begin)/granule size.
Whatever you get back will always cover the original range.

This patch refactors the current implementation of
`ProcessLaunchCommandOptions` to be generated by TableGen.
The patch also renames the class to `CommandOptionsProcessLaunch` to
align better with the rest of the codebase style and moves it to
separate files.

Depends on D90490.
The stop command is simple and invokes the new method Trace::StopTracingThread(thread).
On the other hand, the start command works by delegating its implementation to a CommandObject provided by the Trace plugin. This is necessary because each trace plugin needs different options for this command. There's even the chance that a Trace plugin can't support live tracing, but instead supports offline decoding and analysis, which means that "thread trace dump instructions" works but "thread trace start" doest. Because of this and a few other reasons, it's better to have each plugin provide this implementation.
Besides, I'm using the GetSupportedTraceType method introduced in D90490 to quickly infer what's the trace plug-in that works for the current process.
As an implementation note, I moved CommandObjectIterateOverThreads to its header so that I can use it from the IntelPT plugin. Besides, the actual start and stop logic for intel-pt is not part of this diff.

This is the first in a series of patches that will adds a new processor trace plug-in to LLDB.
The idea for this first patch to to add the plug-in interface with simple commands for the trace files that can "load" and "dump" the trace information. We can test the functionality and ensure people are happy with the way things are done and how things are organized before moving on to adding more functionality.
Processor trace information can be view in a few different ways:
- post mortem where a trace is saved off that can be viewed later in the debugger
- gathered while a process is running and allow the user to step back in time (with no variables, memory or registers) to see how each thread arrived at where it is currently stopped.
This patch attempts to start with the first solution of loading a trace file after the fact. The idea is that we will use a JSON file to load the trace information. JSON allows us to specify information about the trace like:
- plug-in name in LLDB
- path to trace file
- shared library load information so we can re-create a target and symbolicate the information in the trace
- any other info that the trace plug-in will need to be able to successfully parse the trace information
- cpu type
- version info
- ???
A new "trace" command was added at the top level of the LLDB commmands:
- "trace load"
- "trace dump"
I did this because if we load trace information we don't need to have a process and we might end up creating a new target for the trace information that will become active. If anyone has any input on where this would be better suited, please let me know. Walter Erquinigo will end up filling in the Intel PT specific plug-in so that it works and is tested once we can agree that the direction of this patch is the correct one, so please feel free to chime in with ideas on comments!

Move the CommandObjectScript and CommandObjectRegexCommand under
Commands where all the other CommandObject implementations live.
Although neither implementations currently use the TableGen-generated
CommandOptions.inc, this move would have been necessary anyway if they
were to in the future.
This patch introduce a new feature that allows the users to save their
debugging session's transcript (commands + outputs) to a file.
It differs from the reproducers since it doesn't require to capture a
session preemptively and replay the reproducer file in lldb.
The user can choose the save its session manually using the session save
command or automatically by setting the interpreter.save-session-on-quit
on their init file.
To do so, the patch adds a Stream object to the CommandInterpreter that
will hold the input command from the IOHandler and the CommandReturnObject
output and error. This way, that stream object accumulates passively all
the interactions throughout the session and will save them to disk on demand.
The user can specify a file path where the session's transcript will be
saved. However, it is optional, and when it is not provided, lldb will
create a temporary file name according to the session date and time.

The bugreport command exists to create domain-specific bug reports.
Currently it has one implementation for filing bugs on the unwinder. As
far as we can tell, it has never been of use. Although not exactly the
same as the reproducers, it's a bit confusing to have two parallel
command trees for (kind of) the same thing.

It seems having two Options.inc files in the same project is giving our
custom Xcode project a hard time. This patch renames the new Options.inc
to CommandOptions.inc to prevent this conflict.
llvm-svn: 366196
Summary:
We currently have man large arrays containing initializers for our command options.
These tables are tricky maintain as we don't have any good place to check them for consistency and
it's also hard to read (`nullptr, {}, 0` is not very descriptive).
This patch fixes this by letting table gen generate those tables. This way we can have a more readable
syntax for this (especially for all the default arguments) and we can let TableCheck check them
for consistency (e.g. an option with an optional argument can't have `eArgTypeNone`, naming of flags', etc.).
Also refactoring the related data structures can now be done without changing the hundred of option initializers.
For example, this line:
```
{LLDB_OPT_SET_ALL, false, "hide-aliases", 'a', OptionParser::eNoArgument, nullptr, {}, 0, eArgTypeNone, "Hide aliases in the command list."},
```
becomes this:
```
def hide_aliases : Option<"hide-aliases", "a">, Desc<"Hide aliases in the command list.">;
```
For now I just moved a few initializers to the new format to demonstrate the change. I'll slowly migrate the other
option initializers tables in separate patches.

Summary:
PersistentStateExpressions (e.g. ClangPersistentVariables) have the
ability to define types using expressions that persist throughout the
debugging session. GetCompilerTypeFromPersistentDecl is a useful
operation to have if you need to use any of those persistently declared types,
like in CommandObjectMemory.
This decouples clang from CommandObjectMemory and decouples Plugins from
Commands in general.

This one will be used to print statistics about lldb sessions
(including, e.g. number of expression evaluation succeeded or
failed). I decided to commit the skeleton first so that we have
a clean reference on how a command should be implemented.
My future commits are going to populate this command and test
it.

CommandObjectVersion.cpp calls lldb_private::GetVersion (present in lldbBase).
This should fix the unittest link on windows. I am not sure why is this not
present on other platforms -- my guess is that there lldbBase is included in
the link through some other dependency chain.
llvm-svn: 294549
Summary:
This patch adds accurate dependency specifications to the mail LLDB libraries and tools.
In all cases except lldb-server, these dependencies are added in addition to existing dependencies (making this low risk), and I performed some code cleanup along the way.
For lldb-server I've cleaned up the LLVM dependencies down to just the minimum actually required. This is more than lldb-server actually directly references, and I've left a todo in the code to clean that up.

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.

- generate-vers.pl has to be called by cmake to generate the version number
- parallel builds not yet supported; dependency on clang must be explicitly specified
Tested on Linux.
- Building on Mac will require code-signing logic to be implemented.
- Building on Windows will require OS-detection logic and some selective directory inclusion
Thanks to Carlo Kok (who originally prepared these CMakefiles for Windows) and Ben Langmuir
who ported them to Linux!
