The attached patch adds support for debugging 32-bit processes when running a 64-bit lldb on an x86_64 Linux system.
Making this work required two basic changes:
1) Getting lldb to report that it could debug 32-bit processes
2) Changing an assumption about how ptrace works when debugging cross-platform
For the first change, I took a conservative approach and only enabled this for x86_64 Linux platforms. It may be that the change I made in Host.cpp could be extended to other 64-bit Linux platforms, but I'm not familiar enough with the other platforms to know for sure.
For the second change, the Linux ProcessMonitor class was assuming that ptrace(PTRACE_[PEEK|POKE]DATA...) would read/write a "word" based on the child process word size. However, the ptrace documentation says that the "word" size read or written is "determined by the OS variant." I verified experimentally that when ptracing a 32-bit child from a 64-bit parent a 64-bit word is read or written.

This patch combines common code from Linux and FreeBSD into
a new POSIX platform. It also contains fixes for 64bit FreeBSD.
The patch is based on changes by Mark Peek <mp@FreeBSD.org> and
"K. Macy" <kmacy@freebsd.org> in their github repo located at
https://github.com/fbsd/lldb.

Joel Dillon that fixed 64 debugging for Linux.
I also added a patch to fix up the ProcessLinux::DoLaunch() to be up to date.
I wasn't able to verify it compiles, but it should b really close.

Removed ifdeffed out functions and added the implementation of
WriteRegister for x86_64 architecture.

solve the build break due to the lack of this method.
It also propose a solution to the API changes in RegisterContext.
I upgraded also the the python version in the makefile. My linux
installation has python2.7 and AFAIK also the latest ubuntu
has this version of python so maybe is worth upgrading.

This patch upgrades the Linux process plugin to handle a larger range of signal
events. For example, we can detect when the inferior has "crashed" and why,
interrupt a running process, deliver an arbitrary signal, and so on.

it should live and the lldb_private::Process takes care of managing the
auto pointer to the dynamic loader instance.
Also, now that the ArchSpec contains the target triple, we are able to
correctly set the Target architecture in DidLaunch/DidAttach in the subclasses,
and then the lldb_private::Process will find the dynamic loader plug-in
by letting the dynamic loader plug-ins inspect the arch/triple in the target.
So now the ProcessGDBRemote plug-in is another step closer to be purely
process/platform agnostic.
I updated the ProcessMacOSX and the ProcessLinux plug-ins accordingly.

takes separate file handles for stdin, stdout, and stder and also allows for
the working directory to be specified.
Added support to "process launch" to a new option: --working-dir=PATH. We
can now set the working directory. If this is not set, it defaults to that
of the process that has LLDB loaded. Added the working directory to the
host LaunchInNewTerminal function to allows the current working directory
to be set in processes that are spawned in their own terminal. Also hooked this
up to the lldb_private::Process and all mac plug-ins. The linux plug-in had its
API changed, but nothing is making use of it yet. Modfied "debugserver" and
"darwin-debug" to also handle the current working directory options and modified
the code in LLDB that spawns these tools to pass the info along.
Fixed ProcessGDBRemote to properly pass along all file handles for stdin, stdout
and stderr.
After clearing the default values for the stdin/out/err file handles for
process to be NULL, we had a crasher in UserSettingsController::UpdateStringVariable
which is now fixed. Also fixed the setting of boolean values to be able to
be set as "true", "yes", "on", "1" for true (case insensitive) and "false", "no",
"off", or "0" for false.
Fixed debugserver to properly handle files for STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR that are not
already opened. Previous to this fix debugserver would only correctly open and dupe
file handles for the slave side of a pseudo terminal. It now correctly handles
getting STDIN for the inferior from a file, and spitting STDOUT and STDERR out to
files. Also made sure the file handles were correctly opened with the NOCTTY flag
for terminals.

This patch removes a potential race condition between a process monitor thread
and its parent waiting to interrogate the success/failure of the launch.

The previous implementation of HardwareSingleStep wrongly resumed the thread and
single-stepped over the next instruction. Use the proper call to ProcessMonitor.

Previous version simply resumed the associated thread to single step over a
single instruction which is not the intended semantics for this method. Set the
appropriate bit in the rflags register instead.

This patch is enough to have shared objects recognized by LLDB. We can handle
position independent executables. We can handle dynamically loaded modules
brought in via dlopen.
The DYLDRendezvous class provides an interface to a structure present in the
address space of ELF-based processes. This structure provides the address of a
function which is called by the linker each time a shared object is loaded and
unloaded (thus a breakpoint at that address will let LLDB intercept such
events), a list of entries describing the currently loaded shared objects, plus
a few other things.
On Linux, processes are brought up with an auxiliary vector on the stack. One
element in this vector contains the (possibly dynamic) entry address of the
process. One does not need to walk the stack to find this information as it is
also available under /proc/<pid>/auxv. The new AuxVector class provides a
convenient read-only view of this auxiliary vector information. We use the
dynamic entry address and the address as specified in the object file to compute
the actual load address of the inferior image. This strategy works for both
normal executables and PIE's.
