Version 2 of 'main bin spec' LC_NOTE allows for the specification
of a slide of where the binary is loaded in the corefile virtual
address space. It also adds a (currently unused) platform field
for the main binary.
Some corefile creators will only have a UUID and an offset to be
applied to the binary.
Changed TestFirmwareCorefiles.py to test this new form of
'main bin spec' with a slide, and also to run on both x86_64
and arm64 macOS systems.

With arm64e ARMv8.3 pointer authentication, lldb needs to know how
many bits are used for addressing and how many are used for pointer
auth signing. This should be determined dynamically from the inferior
system / corefile, but there are some workflows where it still isn't
recorded and we fall back on a default value that is correct on some
Darwin environments.
This patch also explicitly sets the vendor of mach-o binaries to
Apple, so we select an Apple ABI instead of a random other ABI.
It adds a function pointer formatter for systems where pointer
authentication is in use, and we can strip the ptrauth bits off
of the function pointer address and get a different value that
points to an actual symbol.

Symbol table parsing has evolved over the years and many plug-ins contained duplicate code in the ObjectFile::GetSymtab() that used to be pure virtual. With this change, the "Symbtab *ObjectFile::GetSymtab()" is no longer virtual and will end up calling a new "void ObjectFile::ParseSymtab(Symtab &symtab)" pure virtual function to actually do the parsing. This helps centralize the code for parsing the symbol table and allows the ObjectFile base class to do all of the common work, like taking the necessary locks and creating the symbol table object itself. Plug-ins now just need to parse when they are asked to parse as the ParseSymtab function will only get called once.
This is a retry of the original patch https://reviews.llvm.org/D113965 which was reverted. There was a deadlock in the Manual DWARF indexing code during symbol preloading where the module was asked on the main thread to preload its symbols, and this would in turn cause the DWARF manual indexing to use a thread pool to index all of the compile units, and if there were relocations on the debug information sections, these threads could ask the ObjectFile to load section contents, which could cause a call to ObjectFileELF::RelocateSection() which would ask for the symbol table from the module and it would deadlock. We can't lock the module in ObjectFile::GetSymtab(), so the solution I am using is to use a llvm::once_flag to create the symbol table object once and then lock the Symtab object. Since all APIs on the symbol table use this lock, this will prevent anyone from using the symbol table before it is parsed and finalized and will avoid the deadlock I mentioned. ObjectFileELF::GetSymtab() was never locking the module lock before and would put off creating the symbol table until somewhere inside ObjectFileELF::GetSymtab(). Now we create it one time inside of the ObjectFile::GetSymtab() and immediately lock it which should be safe enough. This avoids the deadlocks and still provides safety.

The new module stats adds the ability to measure the time it takes to parse and index the symbol tables for each module, and reports modules statistics in the output of "statistics dump" along with the path, UUID and triple of the module. The time it takes to parse and index the symbol tables are also aggregated into new top level key/value pairs at the target level.

I am not changing the return type of GetPluginNameStatic in this patch, as that
would necessitate additional changes, and this patch is big enough as it is.

This reverts commits f9aba9a5af and
035217ff51.
As explained in the original commit message, this didn't have the
intended effect of improving the common LLDB use case, but still
provided a marginal improvement for the places where LLDB creates a
scoped time with a string literal.
The reason for the revert is that this change pulls in the os/signpost.h
header in Signposts.h. The former transitively includes loader.h, which
contains a series of macro defines that conflict with MachO.h. There are
ways to work around that, but Adrian and I concluded that none of them
are worth the trade-off in complicating Signposts.h even further.
A MachO userspace corefile may contain LC_THREAD commands which specify
thread exception state.
For arm64* only (for now), report a human-readable version of this state
as the thread stop reason, instead of 'SIGSTOP'.
As a follow-up, similar functionality can be implemented for x86 cores
by translating the trapno/err exception registers.

When the corefile reader is adding binaries from the "all image
infos" LC_NOTE in a Mach-O corefile, it would detect if the binary
being added was an executable binary and set it as the Target's
executable binary. This has the side effect of clearing the Target's
image list, so if the executable was in the middle of the all image
infos, the initial images would be dropped. There's no need to set
the executable binary in the Target for these corefile processes,
so instead of doing multiple passes over the list to find the
executable, I'm dropping that.
In all these years, we haven't found a use for this function (it has
zero callers). Lets just remove the boilerplate.

These two tests, TestSkinnyCorefile.py and TestStackCorefile.py,
require a new debugserver on darwin systems to run correctly; for now,
skip them if the system debugserver is in use. There's no easy way to
test if the debugserver being used supports either of these memory
region info features. For end users, the fallback will be a full
corefile and that's not the worst thing, but for the tests it is a
problem.
Add a field to the qMemoryRegionInfo packet where the remote stub
can describe the type of memory -- heap, stack. Keep track of
memory regions that are stack memory in lldb. Add a new "--style
stack" to process save-core to request that only stack memory be
included in the corefile.

Modify OpenOptions enum to open the future path into synchronizing
vFile:open bits with GDB. Currently, LLDB and GDB use different flag
models effectively making it impossible to match bits. Notably, LLDB
uses two bits to indicate read and write status, and uses union of both
for read/write. GDB uses a value of 0 for read-only, 1 for write-only
and 2 for read/write.
In order to future-proof the code for the GDB variant:
1. Add a distinct eOpenOptionReadWrite constant to be used instead
of (eOpenOptionRead | eOpenOptionWrite) when R/W access is required.
2. Rename eOpenOptionRead and eOpenOptionWrite to eOpenOptionReadOnly
and eOpenOptionWriteOnly respectively, to make it clear that they
do not mean to be combined and require update to all call sites.
3. Use the intersection of all three flags when matching against
the three possible values.
This commit does not change the actual bits used by LLDB.

The pointer to the dyld trie data structure which lldb needs to parse to get
"trampoline kinds" on Darwin used to be a field in the LC_DYLD_INFO load command. A
new load command was added recently dedicated to this purpose: LC_DYLD_EXPORTS_TRIE.
The format of the trie did not change, however. So all we have to do is use the new
command if present. The commands are supposed to be mutually exclusive, so I added
an lldb_assert to warn if they are not.

This is a resubmission of https://reviews.llvm.org/D105160 after fixing testing issues.
This fix was created after profiling the target creation of a large C/C++/ObjC application that contained almost 4,000,000 redacted symbol names. The symbol table parsing code was creating names for each of these synthetic symbols and adding them to the name indexes. The code was also adding the object file basename to the end of the symbol name which doesn't allow symbols from different shared libraries to share the names in the constant string pool.
Prior to this fix this was creating 180MB of "___lldb_unnamed_symbol" symbol names and was taking a long time to generate each name, add them to the string pool and then add each of these names to the name index.
This patch fixes the issue by:
not adding a name to synthetic symbols at creation time, and allows name to be dynamically generated when accessed
doesn't add synthetic symbol names to the name indexes, but catches this special case as name lookup time. Users won't typically set breakpoints or lookup these synthetic names, but support was added to do the lookup in case it does happen
removes the object file baseanme from the generated names to allow the names to be shared in the constant string pool
Prior to this fix the startup times for a large application was:
12.5 seconds (cold file caches)
8.5 seconds (warm file caches)
After this fix:
9.7 seconds (cold file caches)
5.7 seconds (warm file caches)
The names of the symbols are auto generated by appending the symbol's UserID to the end of the "___lldb_unnamed_symbol" string and is only done when the name is requested from a synthetic symbol if it has no name.

Add a new feature to process save-core on Darwin systems -- for
lldb to create a user process corefile with only the dirty (modified
memory) pages included. All of the binaries that were used in the
corefile are assumed to still exist on the system for the duration
of the use of the corefile. A new --style option to process save-core
is added, so a full corefile can be requested if portability across
systems, or across time, is needed for this corefile.
debugserver can now identify the dirty pages in a memory region
when queried with qMemoryRegionInfo, and the size of vm pages is
given in qHostInfo.
Create a new "all image infos" LC_NOTE for Mach-O which allows us
to describe all of the binaries that were loaded in the process --
load address, UUID, file path, segment load addresses, and optionally
whether code from the binary was executing on any thread. The old
"read dyld_all_image_infos and then the in-memory Mach-O load
commands to get segment load addresses" no longer works when we
only have dirty memory.

One nice feature of the os_signpost API is that format string
substitutions happen in the consumer, not the logging
application. LLVM's current Signpost class doesn't take advantage of
this though and instead always uses a static "Begin/End %s" format
string.
This patch uses variadic macros to allow the API to be used as
intended. Unfortunately, the primary use-case I had in mind (the
LLDB_SCOPED_TIMER() macro) does not get much better from this, because
__PRETTY_FUNCTION__ is *not* a macro, but a static string, so
signposts created by LLDB_SCOPED_TIMER() still use a static "%s"
format string. At least LLDB_SCOPED_TIMERF() works as intended.
This reapplies the previously reverted patch with additional include

Unfortunately the Darwin signpost header also pulls in the system
MachO header and so we need to make sure to use the LLVM versions of
those definitions.
Some larger projects were loading quite slowly with the current LLDB on macOS and macOS simulator builds. I did some instrument traces and found 3 main culprits:
- a LLDB timer that was put into a function that was called too often
- a std::set that was keeping track of the address of symbols that were already added
- a unnamed function generator in ObjectFile that was going slow due to allocations
In order to see this in action I ran the latest LLDB on a large application with many frameworks using the following method:
(lldb) script import time; start_time = time.perf_counter()
(lldb) file Large.app
(lldb) script print(time.perf_counter() - start_time)
I first range "sudo purge" to clear the system file caches to simulate a cold startup of the debugger, followed by two iterations with warm file caches.

Commit f3aa9e36d9 fixed the embedded OS
build by removing all passed args for `GetName`/`GetDemangledName`. The motivation
for this was that these arguments were apparently removed in
commit 22b044877d. However, only `GetName`'s language
argument was removed but the mangling preference argument was *not* removed
(and unfortunately had a default argument). So when that commit removed all
the args it didn't just fix the build but it also changed all the mangling
preferences to 'demangled' for all `GetName` calls.
Also some `GetName` calls were outside the TARGET_OS_EMBEDDED ifdef, so
this change ended up breaking the following tests on macOS:
lldb-api :: lang/objc/objc-static-method-stripped/TestObjCStaticMethodStripped.py
lldb-api :: lang/objc/objc-super/TestObjCSuper.py
From what I can see f3aa9e36d9 removed 12 ePreferMangled args and this patch
re-adds 12 args with roughly the same line numbers, so this *should* restore the
old behaviour and also keep the embedded build working. On the other hand,
ObjectFileMachO::ParseSymtab is a very successful attempt at writing
the longest possible function within LLVM, so this fix is partly based
on the engineering principle known as "hoping for the best".
