at each public stop to improve performance a bit. Most of the
information lldb needed was already in the jThreadsInfo response;
complete that information and catch a few cases where we could still
fall back to getting the information via discrete memory reads.
debugserver adds 'associated_with_dispatch_queue' and 'dispatch_queue_t
keys to the jThreadsInfo response for all the threads. lldb needs the
dispatch_queue_t value. And associated_with_dispatch_queue helps to
identify which threads definitively don't have any queue information so
lldb doesn't try to do memory reads to get that information just because
it was absent in the jThreadsInfo response.
Remove the queue information from the questionmark (T) packet. We'll
get the information for all threads via the jThreadsInfo response -
sending the information for the stopping thread (on all the private
stops, plus the less frequent public stop) was unnecessary information
being sent over the wire.
SystemRuntimeMacOSX will try to get information about queues by asking
the Threads for them, instead of reading memory.
ProcessGDBRemote changes to recognize the new keys being sent in the
jThreadsInfo response. Changes to ThreadGDBRemote to track the new
information. Also, when a thread is marked as definitively not
associated with a libdispatch queue, don't fall back to the system
runtime to try memory reads to find the queue name / kind / ID etc.

lldb support. I'll be doing more testing & cleanup but I wanted to
get the initial checkin done.
This adds a new SBExpressionOptions::SetLanguage API for selecting a
language of an expression.
I added adds a new SBThread::GetInfoItemByPathString for retriving
information about a thread from that thread's StructuredData.
I added a new StructuredData class for representing
key-value/array/dictionary information (e.g. JSON formatted data).
Helper functions to read JSON and create a StructuredData object,
and to print a StructuredData object in JSON format are included.
A few Cocoa / Cocoa Touch data formatters were updated by Enrico
to track changes in iOS 8 / Yosemite.
Before we query a thread's extended information, the system runtime may
provide hints to the remote debug stub that it will use to retrieve values
out of runtime structures. I added a new SystemRuntime method
AddThreadExtendedInfoPacketHints which allows the SystemRuntime to add
key-value type data to the initial request that we send to the remote stub.
The thread-format formatter string can now retrieve values out of a thread's
extended info structured data. The default thread-format string picks up
two of these - thread.info.activity.name and thread.info.trace_messages.
I added a new "jThreadExtendedInfo" packet in debugserver; I will
add documentation to the lldb-gdb-remote.txt doc soon. It accepts
JSON formatted arguments (most importantly, "thread":threadnum) and
it returns a variety of information regarding the thread to lldb
in JSON format. This JSON return is scanned into a StructuredData
object that is associated with the thread; UI layers can query the
thread's StructuredData to see if key-values are present, and if
so, show them to the user. These key-values are likely to be
specific to different targets with some commonality among many
targets. For instance, many targets will be able to advertise the
pthread_t value for a thread.
I added an initial rough cut of "thread info" command which will print
the information about a thread from the jThreadExtendedInfo result.
I need to do more work to make this format reasonably.
Han Ming added calls into the pmenergy and pmsample libraries if
debugserver is run on Mac OS X Yosemite to get information about the
inferior's power use.
I added support to debugserver for gathering the Genealogy information
about threads, if it exists, and returning it in the jThreadExtendedInfo
JSON result.

the SystemRuntime to check if a thread will have any problems
performing an inferior function call so the driver can skip
making that function call on that thread. Often the function
call can be executed on another thread instead.

Seed the QueueItem objects with the item_refs and addresses when they are fetched
in one batch. If additional information is needed from the QueueItem, fetch it
lazily one pending item per function call.

changing the data it returns; this change accepts either the old format or
the new format. It doesn't yet benefit from the new format's additions -
but I need to get this checked in so we aren't rev-locked.
Also add a missing .i entry for SBQueue::GetNumRunningItems() missing from
the last checkin.

libldi library to collect extended backtrace information; switch
to the libBacktraceRecording library and its APIs. Complete the
work of adding QueueItems to Queues and allow for the QueueItems
to be interrogated about their extended backtraces in turn.
There's still cleanup and documentation to do on this code but the
code is functional and I it's a good time to get the work-in-progress
checked in.

libdispatch aka Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) queues. Still fleshing out the
documentation and testing of these but the overall API is settling down so it's
a good time to check it in.

(and same thing to Thread base class) which can be used when looking
at an ExtendedBacktrace thread; it will try to find the IndexID() of
the original thread that was executing this backtrace when it was
recorded. If lldb can't find a record of that thread, it will return
the same value as IndexID() for the ExtendedBacktrace thread.

do anything right now. Add a few new methods to the Thread base
class which HistoryThread needs. I think I updated all the
CMakeLists files correctly for the new plugin.
