Make breakpoint setting by file and line much more efficient by only looking for inlined breakpoint locations if we are setting a breakpoint in anything but a source implementation file. Implementing this complex for a many reasons. Turns out that parsing compile units lazily had some issues with respect to how we need to do things with DWARF in .o files. So the fixes in the checkin for this makes these changes:
- Add a new setting called "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" which can be set to "never", "always", or "headers". "never" will never try and set any inlined breakpoints (fastest). "always" always looks for inlined breakpoint locations (slowest, but most accurate). "headers", which is the default setting, will only look for inlined breakpoint locations if the breakpoint is set in what are consudered to be header files, which is realy defined as "not in an implementation source file".
- modify the breakpoint setting by file and line to check the current "target.inline-breakpoint-strategy" setting and act accordingly
- Modify compile units to be able to get their language and other info lazily. This allows us to create compile units from the debug map and not have to fill all of the details in, and then lazily discover this information as we go on debuggging. This is needed to avoid parsing all .o files when setting breakpoints in implementation only files (no inlines). Otherwise we would need to parse the .o file, the object file (mach-o in our case) and the symbol file (DWARF in the object file) just to see what the compile unit was.
- modify the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" to subclass lldb_private::Module so that the virtual "GetObjectFile()" and "GetSymbolVendor()" functions can be intercepted when the .o file contenst are later lazilly needed. Prior to this fix, when we first instantiated the "SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap" class, we would also make modules, object files and symbol files for every .o file in the debug map because we needed to fix up the sections in the .o files with information that is in the executable debug map. Now we lazily do this in the DebugMapModule::GetObjectFile()
Cleaned up header includes a bit as well.

that automatically generated setters/getters only
get added to a class after explicitly declared (or
synthesized) getters/setters had the chance to be
added. This eliminates conflicts creating errors
of the form:
error: instance method '...' has incompatible result
types in different translation units ('X *' vs. 'id')
llvm-svn: 157956
Fixed an issue that would happen when using debug map with DWARF in the .o files where we wouldn't ever track down the actual definition for a type when things were in namespaces. We now serialize the decl context information into an intermediate format which allows us to track down the correct definition for a type regardless of which DWARF symbol file it comes from. We do this by creating a "DWARFDeclContext" object that contains the DW_TAG + name for each item in a decl context which we can then use to veto potential accelerator table matches. For example, the accelerator tables store the basename of the type, so if you have "std::vector<int>", we would end up with an accelerator table entry for the type that contained "vector<int>", which we would then search for using a DWARFDeclContext object that contained:
[0] DW_TAG_class_type "vector<int>"
[1] DW_TAG_namespace "std"
This is currently used to track down forward declarations for things like "class a:🅱️:Foo;".
llvm-svn: 155488
correctly if the setter/getter were not present
in the debug information. The fixes are as follows:
- We not only look for the method by its full name,
but also look for automatically-generated methods
when searching for a selector in an Objective-C
interface. This is necessary to find accessors.
- Extract the getter and setter name from the
DW_TAG_APPLE_Property declaration in the DWARF
if they are present; generate them if not.

Fixed an issue where there were more than one way to get a CompileUnitSP created when using SymbolFileDWARF with SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap. This led to an assertion that would fire under certain conditions. Now there is only one way to create the compile unit and it will "do the right thing".

This allows the expression parser, for instance,

working, but not functions). I need to check on a few things to make sure
I am registering everything correctly in the right order and in the right

a type when we have a forward declaration. We always have found a
type by basename, but now we also compare the decl context of the
die we are trying to complete with the matches we find from the accelerator
tables to ensure we get the right one.
llvm-svn: 149593
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).
llvm-svn: 149207
will ask ExternalASTSource objects to help laying out a type. This is needed
because the DWARF typically doesn't contain alignement or packing attribute
values, and we need to be able to match up types that the compiler uses
in expressions.
llvm-svn: 149160
Fix DWARF parsing issue we can run into when using llvm-gcc based dSYM files.
Also fix the parsing of objective C built-in types (Class, id and SEL) so
they don't parse more information that is not needed due to the way they
are represented in DWARF.
llvm-svn: 148016
An assertion was firing when parsing types due to trying to complete parent
class decl contenxt types too often.

that if we prefer the current compile unit, followed by any compile units that
already had their DIEs parsed, followed by the rest of the matches, that we
might save some memory. This turned out not to help much. The code is commented
out, but I want to check it in so I don't lose the code in case it could help
later.
Added the ability to efficiently find the objective C class implementation
when using the new .apple_types acclerator tables with the type flags. If the
type flags are not available, we default back to what we were doing before.
llvm-svn: 146250
that is in a class from the expression parser, and it was causing an
assertion. There is now a function that will correctly resolve a type

class. The thing with Objective C classes is the debug info might have a
definition that isn't just a forward decl, but it is incomplete. So we need to
look and see if we can find the complete definition and avoid recursing a lot
due to the fact that our accelerator tables will have many versions of the
type, but only one complete one. We might not also have the complete type
and we need to deal with this correctly.
llvm-svn: 145759
Objective-C, making symbol lookups for various raw
Objective-C symbols work correctly. The IR interpreter
makes these lookups because Clang has emitted raw
symbol references for ivars and classes.
Also improved performance in SymbolFiles, caching the
result of asking for SymbolFile abilities.
llvm-svn: 145758
to launch a process for debugging. Since this isn't supported on all platforms,
we need to do what we used to do if this isn't supported. I added:
bool
Platform::CanDebugProcess ();
This will get checked before trying to launch a process for debugging and then
fall back to launching the process through the current host debugger. This
should solve the issue for linux and keep the platform code clean.
Centralized logging code for logging errors, warnings and logs when reporting
things for modules or symbol files. Both lldb_private::Module and
lldb_private::SymbolFile now have the following member functions:
void
LogMessage (Log *log, const char *format, ...);
void
ReportWarning (const char *format, ...);
void
ReportError (const char *format, ...);
These will all output the module name and object (if any) such as:
"error: lldb.so ...."
"warning: my_archive.a(foo.o) ...."
This will keep the output consistent and stop a lot of logging calls from
having to try and output all of the information that uniquely identifies
a module or symbol file. Many places in the code were grabbing the path to the
object file manually and if the module represented a .o file in an archive, we
would see log messages like:
error: foo.a - some error happened
llvm-svn: 145219
in the same hashed format as the ".apple_names", but they map objective C
class names to all of the methods and class functions. We need to do this
because in the DWARF the methods for Objective C are never contained in the
class definition, they are scattered about at the translation unit level and
they don't even have attributes that say the are contained within the class
itself.
Added 3 new formats which can be used to display data:
eFormatAddressInfo
eFormatHexFloat
eFormatInstruction
eFormatAddressInfo describes an address such as function+offset and file+line,
or symbol + offset, or constant data (c string, 2, 4, 8, or 16 byte constants).
The format character for this is "A", the long format is "address".
eFormatHexFloat will print out the hex float format that compilers tend to use.
The format character for this is "X", the long format is "hex float".
eFormatInstruction will print out disassembly with bytes and it will use the
current target's architecture. The format character for this is "i" (which
used to be being used for the integer format, but the integer format also has
"d", so we gave the "i" format to disassembly), the long format is
"instruction".
Mate the lldb::FormatterChoiceCriterion enumeration private as it should have
been from the start. It is very specialized and doesn't belong in the public
API.
llvm-svn: 143114
tables (like the .apple_namespaces) and it would cause us to index DWARF that
didn't need to be indexed.
Updated the MappedHash.h (generic Apple accelerator table) and the DWARF
specific one (HashedNameToDIE.h) to be up to date with the latest and
greatest hash table format.
llvm-svn: 142627
process IDs, and thread IDs, but was mainly needed for for the UserID's for
Types so that DWARF with debug map can work flawlessly. With DWARF in .o files
the type ID was the DIE offset in the DWARF for the .o file which is not
unique across all .o files, so now the SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap class will
make the .o file index part (the high 32 bits) of the unique type identifier
so it can uniquely identify the types.
llvm-svn: 142534
so we don't have to lookup types in a type list by ID.
Changed the DWARF parser to remove the "can externally complete myself" bits
from the type when we are in the process of completing the type itself to
avoid an onslaught of external visible decl requests from the
clang::ExternalASTSource.
llvm-svn: 142461
down through Module and SymbolVendor into SymbolFile.
Added checks to SymbolFileDWARF that restrict symbol
searches when a namespace is passed in.
llvm-svn: 141847
SymbolFIle (it was done mostly in the BreakpointResolverName resolver before.) Then
tailor our searches to the way the indexed maps are laid out. This removes a bunch
of test case failures using indexed dSYM's.
llvm-svn: 141428
index the DWARF. Also fixed an issue with memory accelerator tables with a
size of 1 where we would loop infinitely.
Added support for parsing the new .apple_namespaces section which gives us a
memory hash table for looking up namespaces.
llvm-svn: 141128
are available, we currently will still index the DWARF ourselves
and assert if the name lookups differ. This will help us transition
to the new accelerator tables and make sure they are workng before
we switch over entirely.
llvm-svn: 140788
Address ranges are now split up into two different tables:
- one in DWARFDebugInfo that is compile unit specific
- one in each DWARFCompileUnit that has exact function DIE offsets
This helps keep the size of the aranges down since the main table will get
uniqued and sorted and have consecutive ranges merged. We then only parse the
compile unit one on demand once we have determined that a compile unit contains
the address in question. We also now use the .debug_aranges section if there
is one instead of always indexing the DWARF manually.
NameToDIE now uses a UniqueCStringMap<dw_offset> map instead of a std::map.
std::map is very bulky as each node has 3 pointers and the key and value types.
This gets our NameToDIE entry down to 12 bytes each instead of 48 which saves
us a lot of memory when we have very large DWARF.
DWARFDebugAranges now has a smaller footprint for each range it contains to
save on memory.
llvm-svn: 139557
One fixes a trailing comma bug (g++ doesn't like them)
The other gets the Error from the result of an expression evaluation and uses it as the error for the Process::LoadImage() method.
llvm-svn: 139336
DWARF accelerator table sections to the DWARF parser. These sections are similar
to the .debug_pubnames and .debug_pubtypes, but they are designed to be hash tables
that are saved to disc in a way that the sections can just be loaded into memory
and used without any work on the debugger side. The .debug_pubnames and .debug_pubtypes
sections are not ordered, contain a copy of the name in the section itself which
makes these sections quite large, they only include publicly exported names (so no
static functions, no types defined inside functions), many compilers put different
information in them making them very unreliable so most debugger ignore these sections
and parse the DWARF on their own. The tables must also be parsed and sorted in order
to be used effectively. The new sections can be quickly loaded and very efficiently be used
to do name to DIE lookups with very little up front work. The format of these new
sections will be changing while we work out the bugs, but we hope to have really
fast name to DIE lookups soon.
llvm-svn: 138979
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
that detects what context the current expression is
meant to execute in. LLDB now properly consults
the method declaration in the debug information
rather than trying to hunt down the "this" or "self"
pointer by name, which can be misleading.
Other fixes include:
- LLDB now properly detects that it is inside
an inlined C++ member function.
- LLDB now allows access to non-const members when
in const code.
- The functions in SymbolFile that locate the
DeclContext containing a DIE have been renamed
to reflect what they actually do. I have added
new functions that find the DeclContext for the
DIE itself.
I have also introduced testcases for C++ and
Objective-C.
llvm-svn: 136999
appropriately between C++ static methods and non-static
methods. This bug made it impossible to call most static
methods, either because Clang did not recognize that a
method could be called without providing a "this"
parameter, or because Clang did not properly mangle the
name of the method when searching for it in the target.
Also added a testcase.
llvm-svn: 136733
completes the support in the LLDB expression parser
for incomplete types. Clang now imports types
lazily, and we complete those types as necessary.
Changes include:
- ClangASTSource now supports three APIs which it
passes to ClangExpressionDeclMap. CompleteType
completes a TagDecl or an ObjCInterfaceDecl when
needed; FindExternalVisibleDecls finds named
entities that are visible in the expression's
scope; and FindExternalLexicalDecls performs a
(potentially restricted) search for entities
inside a lexical scope like a namespace. These
changes mean that entities in namespaces should
work normally.
- The SymbolFileDWARF code for searching a context
for a specific name is now more general, and can
search arbitrary contexts.
- We are continuing to adapt our calls into LLVM
from interfaces that take start and end iterators
when accepting multiple items to interfaces that
use ArrayRef.
- I have cleaned up some code, especially our use
of namespaces.
This change is neutral for our testsuite and greatly
improves correctness for large programs (like Clang)
with complicated type systems. It should also lay
the groundwork for improving the expression parser's
performance as we are lazier and lazier about
providing type information.
llvm-svn: 136555
by name by adding an extra parameter to the lldb_private::Target breakpoint
setting functions.
Added a function in the DWARF symbol file plug-in that can dump errors
and prints out which DWARF file the error is happening in so we can track
down what used to be assertions easily.
Fixed the MacOSX kernel plug-in to properly read the kext images and set
the kext breakpoint to watch for kexts as they are loaded.
llvm-svn: 134990
inspection of namespaces in the expression parser.
ClangExpressionDeclMap hitherto reported that namespaces had
been completely imported, even though the namespaces are
returned empty. To deal with this situation, ClangASTSource
was recently extended with an API to complete incomplete type
definitions, and, for greater efficiency, to complete these
definitions partially, returning only those objects that have
a given name.
This commit supports these APIs on LLDB's side, and uses it
to provide information on types resident in namespaces.
Namespaces are now imported as they were -- that is to say,
empty -- but with minimal import mode on. This means that
Clang will come back and request their contents by name as
needed. We now respond with information on the contained
types; this will be followed soon by information on functions
and variables.
llvm-svn: 133852
issue in the way block variables are marked as parsed. In the DWARF parser we
always parse all blocks for a function at once, so we can mark all blocks as
having all variables parsed and avoid recursive function calls to try and
reparse things that have already been handled.
Fixed an issue with how variables get scoped into blocks. The DWARF parser can
now handle abtract class definitions that contain concrete static variables.
When the concrete instance of the class functions get instantiated, they will
track down the concrete block for the abtract block and add the variable to
each block.
llvm-svn: 133302
const data, etc, and also for SBAddress objects to classify their type of
section they are in and also getting the module for a section offset address.

public types and public enums. This was done to keep the SWIG stuff from
parsing all sorts of enums and types that weren't needed, and allows us to
abstract our API better.
