There are a couple of pieces:
* some lazy-evaluation members that store info listed in a qSupported response
* new method SendPacketsAndConcatenateResponses which is used for
fetching fixed-size objects from the remote gdbserver by using multiple
packets if necessary (first use will be to fetch shared-library XML files).

right after the space for it is allocated on the stack, instead of trying
to initialize it in all the different places in this method. It's too easy
for another uninitialized code path to sneak in as it is written right now.

GDBRemoteCommunicationServer::LaunchProcess () now uses the built-up
ProcessLaunchArgs rather than clearing and setting items from the
function arguments. I added setters for the arguments and launch
flags, which lldb-gdbserver uses for its specification of the
commandline-specified startup app (if one is specified).
LaunchProcess () also adds a new reaper monitor that it applies to
the launched process if no process monitor has already been applied.
This addresses an issue where the 'k' command would generate (possibly
false) warnings about not being able to positively state whether a
killed process actually terminated. GDBRemoteCommunicationServer now
definitely knows the disposition of its children.
llvm-svn: 199959
lldb-gdbserver was launching the commandline-specified launch process
directly, without GDBRemoteCommunicationServer knowing anything about
it. As GDBRemoteCommunicationServer is the piece that manages and
knows about processes that the gdb remote protocol discusses with
the client end, it is important that it know about launched processes.
This change also implements the k gdb remote protocol message, having it
kill all known spawned processes when it is received.
(Note: in lldb-gdbserver, the spawned processes are not properly
monitored yet. The response to the k packet will complain that
spawned processes do not really appear to be getting killed even if
they are. This will get addressed soon.)
llvm-svn: 199945
ArchSpec now contains an optional distribution_id, with getters and
setters. Host::GetArchitecture () sets it on non-Apple platforms using
Host::GetDistributionId (). The distribution_id is ignored during
ArchSpec comparisons.
The gdb remote qHostInfo message transmits it, if set, via the
distribution_id={id-value} key/value pair. Updated gdb remote docs to
reflect this change.
As before, GetDistributionId () returns nothing on non-Linux platforms
at this time. On Linux, it is returned only if the lsb_platform
command is installed (in /bin or /usr/bin), and only if the
distributor id key is returned by 'lsb_platform -i'. This id is
lowercased, and whitespace is replaced with underscores.

This change fixes a bug recently introduced in ProcessGDBRemote that
prevented the Python register definition file from getting loaded when
the qRegisterInfo0 response returned $00#.

it needs to fall back to using the HostArchitecture if a valid one is not
returned. When doing low-level system debugging we may not have a process
(or the remote stub may not support the qProcessInfo packet) in which case
we should fall back to the architecture we determined via qHostInfo.

During testing I observed QEMU send "$T02thread:01;#04" upon connection,
before any command from LLDB. This change from gclayton accepts (and
discards) a packet immediately after sending the initial ack, to flush
the GDB remote pipeline.

While investigating test suite failures when running the test suite remotely, I noticed we had 3 copies of code that launched a process:
1 - in "process launch" command
2 - SBTarget::Launch() with args
3 - SBTarget::Launch() with SBLaunchInfo
"process launch" was launching through the platform if it was supported (this is needed for remote debugging) and the 2 and 3 were not.
Now all code is in one place.
llvm-svn: 197247
<rdar://problem/15600045>
Due to other recent changes, all connections to GDB servers that didn't support the "QStartNoAckMode" packet would cause us to fail to attach to the remote GDB server.
The problem was that SendPacket* and WaitForResponse* packets would return a size_t indicating the number of bytes sent/received. The other issue was WaitForResponse* packets would strip the leading '$' and the trailing "#CC" (checksum) bytes, so the unimplemented response packet of "$#00" would get stripped and the WaitForResponse* packets would return 0.
These new error codes give us flexibility to to more intelligent things in response to what is returned.

This gets rid of our hacky "get_random_port()" which would grab a random port and tell debugserver to open that port. Now LLDB creates, binds, listens and accepts a connection by binding to port zero and sending the correctly bound port down as the host:port to connect back to.
Fixed the "ConnectionFileDescriptor" to be able to correctly listen for connections from a specified host, localhost, or any host. Prior to this fix "listen://" only accepted the following format:
listen://<port>
But now it can accept:
listen://<port> // Listen for connection from localhost on port <port>
listen://<host>:<port> // Listen for connection from <host> and <port>
listen://*:<port> // Listen for connection from any host on port <port>
llvm-svn: 196547
This helps ensure that the launched debugserver is ready and listening for a connection. Prior to this we had a race condition.
Consolidate the launching of debugserver into a single place: a static function in GDBRemoteCommunication.
llvm-svn: 196401
Added _WIN32 guards to new platform features. Using correct SetErrorStringWithFormat within Host when LLDB_DISABLE_POSIX is defined. Also fixed an if defined block.
llvm-svn: 195766
Improved the detection of a valid GDB server where we actually can connect to a socket, but then it doesn't read or write anything (which happens with some USB mux software).
Host::MakeDirectory() now can make as many intermediate directories as needed.
The testsuite now has very initial support for remote test suite running. When running on a remote platform, the setUp function for the test will make a new directory and select it as the working directory on the remote host.
Added a common function that can be used to create the short option string for getopt_long calls.
llvm-svn: 195541
Fixed a bunch of issues with many functions that were added for the platform host IO calls where they might not reply to the packet if the packet was malformed.
Cleaned up error codes.
Added a port offset to allow for connections across a USB mux.
llvm-svn: 195485
--gdbserver-port PORT
--min-gdbserver-port PORT
--max-gdbserver-port PORT
The --gdbserver-port option can be specified multiple times to tell lldb-platform which ports it can use when launching child GDB server processes.
The --min-gdbserver-port and --max-gdbserver-port options allow a range of ports to be specified for use when launching child GDB server processes.
Fixed the code to manage these ports correctly in GDBRemoteCommunicationServer.
Also changed GDBRemoteCommunicationClient to not set a port when sending the "qLaunchGDBServer" packet so that the remote lldb-platform can decide which ports to use. If the lldb-platform was launched with no --gdbserver-port or --min-gdbserver-port/--max-gdbserver-port options, then port 0 is always used and a unix socket is used between the lldb-platform and child GDB server process to coordinate the use of valid port.
llvm-svn: 195300
Example code:
remote_platform = lldb.SBPlatform("remote-macosx");
remote_platform.SetWorkingDirectory("/private/tmp")
debugger.SetSelectedPlatform(remote_platform)
connect_options = lldb.SBPlatformConnectOptions("connect://localhost:1111");
err = remote_platform.ConnectRemote(connect_options)
if err.Success():
print >> result, 'Connected to remote platform:'
print >> result, 'hostname: %s' % (remote_platform.GetHostname())
src = lldb.SBFileSpec("/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/LLDB.framework", False)
dst = lldb.SBFileSpec()
# copy src to platform working directory since "dst" is empty
err = remote_platform.Install(src, dst);
if err.Success():
print >> result, '%s installed successfully' % (src)
else:
print >> result, 'error: failed to install "%s": %s' % (src, err)
Implemented many calls needed in lldb-platform to be able to install a directory that contains symlinks, file and directories.
The remote lldb-platform can now launch GDB servers on the remote system so that remote debugging can be spawned through the remote platform when connected to a remote platform.
The API in SBPlatform is subject to change and will be getting many new functions.
llvm-svn: 195273
Added two new GDB server packets to debugserver: "QSaveRegisterState" and "QRestoreRegiterState".
"QSaveRegisterState" makes the remote GDB server save all register values and it returns a save identifier as an unsigned integer. This packet can be used prior to running expressions to save all registers.
All registers can them we later restored with "QRestoreRegiterState:SAVEID" what SAVEID is the integer identifier that was returned from the call to QSaveRegisterState.
Cleaned up redundant code in lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::ThreadPlanCallFunction.
Moved the lldb_private::Thread::RegisterCheckpoint into its own header file and it is now in the lldb_private namespace. Trimmed down the RegisterCheckpoint class to omit stuff that wasn't used (the stack ID).
Added a few new virtual methods to lldb_private::RegisterContext that allow subclasses to efficiently save/restore register states and changed the RegisterContextGDBRemote to take advantage of these new calls.
llvm-svn: 194621
pure virtual base class and made StackFrame a subclass of that. As
I started to build on top of that arrangement today, I found that it
wasn't working out like I intended. Instead I'll try sticking with
the single StackFrame class -- there's too much code duplication to
make a more complicated class hierarchy sensible I think.
llvm-svn: 193983
defines a protocol that all subclasses will implement. StackFrame
is currently the only subclass and the methods that Frame vends are
nearly identical to StackFrame's old methods.
Update all callers to use Frame*/Frame& instead of pointers to
StackFrames.
This is almost entirely a mechanical change that touches a lot of
the code base so I'm committing it alone. No new functionality is
added with this patch, no new subclasses of Frame exist yet.
I'll probably need to tweak some of the separation, possibly moving
some of StackFrame's methods up in to Frame, but this is a good
starting point.
<rdar://problem/15314068>
llvm-svn: 193907
Added a new key that we understand for the "qHostInfo" packet: "default_packet_timeout:T;" where T is a default packet timeout in seconds.
This allows GDB servers with known slow packet response times to increase the default timeout to a value that makes sense for the connection.
llvm-svn: 193425
This commit adds an example python file that can be used with 'target-definition-file' setting for Linux gdbserver.
This file has an extra key 'breakpoint-pc-offset' that LLDB uses to determine how much to change the PC
after hitting the breakpoint.
llvm-svn: 192962
queue name out of ProcessGDBRemote and in to the Platform
plugin, specifically PlatformDarwin.
Also add a Platform method to translate a dispatch_quaddr
to a QueueID, and a Thread::GetQueueID().
I'll add an SBThread::GetQueueID() next.
llvm-svn: 192949
- Made the dynamic register context for the GDB remote plug-in inherit from the generic DynamicRegisterInfo to avoid code duplication
- Finished up the target definition python setting stuff.
- Added a new "slice" key/value pair that can specify that a register is part of another register:
{ 'name':'eax', 'set':0, 'bitsize':32, 'encoding':eEncodingUint, 'format':eFormatHex, 'slice': 'rax[31:0]' },
- Added a new "composite" key/value pair that can specify that a register is made up of two or more registers:
{ 'name':'d0', 'set':0, 'bitsize':64 , 'encoding':eEncodingIEEE754, 'format':eFormatFloat, 'composite': ['s1', 's0'] },
- Added a new "invalidate-regs" key/value pair for when a register is modified, it can invalidate other registers:
{ 'name':'cpsr', 'set':0, 'bitsize':32 , 'encoding':eEncodingUint, 'format':eFormatHex, 'invalidate-regs': ['r8', 'r9', 'r10', 'r11', 'r12', 'r13', 'r14', 'r15']},
This now completes the feature that allows a GDB remote target to completely describe itself.
llvm-svn: 192858
When debugging with the GDB remote in LLDB, LLDB uses special packets to discover the
registers on the remote server. When those packets aren't supported, LLDB doesn't
know what the registers look like. This checkin implements a setting that can be used
to specify a python file that contains the registers definitions. The setting is:
(lldb) settings set plugin.process.gdb-remote.target-definition-file /path/to/module.py
Inside module there should be a function:
def get_dynamic_setting(target, setting_name):
This dynamic setting function is handed the "target" which is a SBTarget, and the
"setting_name", which is the name of the dynamic setting to retrieve. For the GDB
remote target definition the setting name is 'gdb-server-target-definition'. The
return value is a dictionary that follows the same format as the OperatingSystem
plugins follow. I have checked in an example file that implements the x86_64 GDB
register set for people to see:
examples/python/x86_64_target_definition.py
This allows LLDB to debug to any archticture that is support and allows users to
define the registers contexts when the discovery packets (qRegisterInfo, qHostInfo)
are not supported by the remote GDB server.
A few benefits of doing this in Python:
1 - The dynamic register context was already supported in the OperatingSystem plug-in
2 - Register contexts can use all of the LLDB enumerations and definitions for things
like lldb::Format, lldb::Encoding, generic register numbers, invalid registers
numbers, etc.
3 - The code that generates the register context can use the program to calculate the
register context contents (like offsets, register numbers, and more)
4 - True dynamic detection could be used where variables and types could be read from
the target program itself in order to determine which registers are available since
the target is passed into the python function.
This is designed to be used instead of XML since it is more dynamic and code flow and
functions can be used to make the dictionary.
llvm-svn: 192646
Added a way to set hardware breakpoints from the "breakpoint set" command with the new "--hardware" option. Hardware breakpoints are not a request, they currently are a requirement. So when breakpoints are specified as hardware breakpoints, they might fail to be set when they are able to be resolved and should be used sparingly. This is currently hooked up for GDB remote debugging.
Linux and FreeBSD should quickly enable this feature if possible, or return an error for any breakpoints that are hardware breakpoint sites in the "virtual Error Process::EnableBreakpointSite (BreakpointSite *bp_site);" function.
llvm-svn: 192491
Fixed an issue where environment variables that contained special characters '$' and '#' would hose up the GDB server packet. We now use the QEnvironmentHexEncoded packet that has existed for a long time when we need to. Also added code that will stop sending the QEnvironmentHexEncoded and QEnvironment packets if they aren't supported.
llvm-svn: 192373
by appending the thread ID to the test packet when
debugserver requires it.
This allows register writing (and, by extension,
expressions) to work on Mac OS X.
