A lot of comments in LLDB are surrounded by an ASCII line to delimit the
begging and end of the comment.
Its use is not really consistent across the code base, sometimes the
lines are longer, sometimes they are shorter and sometimes they are
omitted. Furthermore, it looks kind of weird with the 80 column limit,
where the comment actually extends past the line, but not by much.
Furthermore, when /// is used for Doxygen comments, it looks
particularly odd. And when // is used, it incorrectly gives the
impression that it's actually a Doxygen comment.
I assume these lines were added to improve distinguishing between
comments and code. However, given that todays editors and IDEs do a
great job at highlighting comments, I think it's worth to drop this for
the sake of consistency. The alternative is fixing all the
inconsistencies, which would create a lot more churn.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Summary:
This commit adds the glue code necessary to integrate the
SymbolFileBreakpad into the plugin system. Most of the methods are
stubbed out. The only method implemented method is AddSymbols, which
parses the PUBLIC "section" of the breakpad "object file", and fills out
the Module's symtab.
To enable testing this, I've made two additional changes:
- dump Symtab from the SymbolVendor class. The symtab was already being
dumped as a part of the object file dump, but that happened before
symbol vendor kicked in, so it did not reflect any symbols added
there.
- add ability to explicitly specify the external symbol file in
lldb-test (so that the object file could be linked with the breakpad
symbol file). To make things simpler, I've changed lldb-test from
consuming multiple inputs (and dumping their symbols) to having it
just process a single file per invocation. This was not a problem
since everyone was using it that way already.

This re-commits r348592, which was reverted due to a failing test on
macos.
The issue was that I was passing a null pointer for the
"CreateMemoryInstance" callback when registering ObjectFileBreakpad,
which caused crashes when attemping to load modules from memory. The
correct thing to do is to pass a callback which always returns a null
pointer (as breakpad files are never loaded in inferior memory).
It turns out that there is only one test which exercises this code path,
and it's mac-only, so I've create a new test which should run everywhere
(except windows, as one cannot delete an executable which is being run).
Unfortunately, this test still fails on linux for other reasons, but at
least it gives us something to aim for.
The original commit message was:
This patch adds the scaffolding necessary for lldb to recognise symbol
files generated by breakpad. These (textual) files contain just enough
information to be able to produce a backtrace from a crash
dump. This information includes:
- UUID, architecture and name of the module
- line tables
- list of symbols
- unwind information
A minimal breakpad file could look like this:
MODULE Linux x86_64 0000000024B5D199F0F766FFFFFF5DC30 a.out
INFO CODE_ID 00000000B52499D1F0F766FFFFFF5DC3

STACK CFI 1011 $rbp: .cfa -16 + ^ .cfa: $rsp 16 +
STACK CFI 1014 .cfa: $rbp 16 +
Even though this data would normally be considered "symbol" information,
in the current lldb infrastructure it is assumed every SymbolFile object
is backed by an ObjectFile instance. So, in order to better interoperate
with the rest of the code (particularly symbol vendors).
In this patch I just parse the breakpad header, which is enough to
populate the UUID and architecture fields of the ObjectFile interface.
The rough plan for followup patches is to expose the individual parts of
the breakpad file as ObjectFile "sections", which can then be used by
other parts of the codebase (SymbolFileBreakpad ?) to vend the necessary
information.

This patch changes the way the reproducer is initialized. Rather than
making changes at run time we now do everything at initialization time.
To make this happen we had to introduce initializer options and their SB
variant. This allows us to tell the initializer that we're running in
reproducer capture/replay mode.
Because of this change we also had to alter our testing strategy. We
cannot reinitialize LLDB when using the dotest infrastructure. Instead
we use lit and invoke two instances of the driver.
Another consequence is that we can no longer enable capture or replay
through commands. This was bound to go away form the beginning, but I
had something in mind where you could enable/disable specific providers.
However this seems like it adds very little value right now so the
corresponding commands were removed.
Finally this change also means you now have to control this through the
driver, for which I replaced --reproducer with --capture and --replay to
differentiate between the two modes.

In January Davide sent an e-mail to the mailing list to suggest removing
unmaintained language plugins such as Go and Java. The plan was to have
some cool down period to allow users to speak up, however after that the
plugins were never actually removed.
This patch removes the OCaml debugger plugin.
The plugin can be added again in the future if it is mature enough both
in terms of testing and maintenance commitment.

Summary:
For lldb-server, it is sufficient to parse only the native object file
format for its target OS (no other file can be loaded into a running
process). This moves the object file initialization code into specific
initializer classes: lldb-test and liblldb get all object files;
lldb-server gets only one of them. For this to work, I've needed to
create a special SystemInitializer for use in lldb-server, instead of it
calling directly into the common one.
This reduces the size of lldb-server by about 2%, which is not
earth-shattering, but it's an easy win, and it helps.

This is basically a proof-of-concept and starting point for having a
testing-centric tool in LLDB. I'm sure this leaves a lot of room to be
desired, but this at least allows us to have something to build on.
Right now there is only one command, the `module-sections` command, and I
created this command not because it was particularly special, but
because it addressed an immediate use case and was extremely simple.
Run the tool as `lldb-test module-sections <path-to-object>`.
Feel free to add testing related stuff to your heart's content after
this goes in. Implementing the commands themselves takes some work, but
once they're there they can be reused without writing any code and
result in very easy to use and maintain tests.
