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.

The `ap` suffix is a remnant of lldb's former use of auto pointers,
before they got deprecated. Although all their uses were replaced by
unique pointers, some variables still carried the suffix.
In r353795 I removed another auto_ptr remnant, namely redundant calls to
::get for unique_pointers. Jim justly noted that this is a good
opportunity to clean up the variable names as well.
I went over all the changes to ensure my find-and-replace didn't have
any undesired side-effects. I hope I didn't miss any, but if you end up
at this commit doing a git blame on a weirdly named variable, please
know that the change was unintentional.

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

Summary:
The first section header does not define a real section. Instead it is
used for various elf extensions. This patch skips creation of a section
for index 0.
This has one furtunate side-effect, in that it allows us to use the section
header index as the Section ID (where 0 is also invalid). This way, we
can get rid of a lot of spurious +1s in the ObjectFileELF code.

Summary:
This patch attempts to move as much code as possible out of the
CreateSections function to make room for future improvements there. Some
of this may be slightly over-engineered (VMAddressProvider), but I
wanted to keep the logic of this function very simple, because once I
start taking segment headers into acount (as discussed in D55356), the
function is going to grow significantly.
While in there, I also added tests for various bits of functionality.
This should be NFC, except that I changed the order of hac^H^Heuristicks
for determining section type slightly. Previously, name-based deduction
(.symtab -> symtab) would take precedence over type-based (SHT_SYMTAB ->
symtab) one. In fact we would assert if we ran into a .text section with
type SHT_SYMTAB. Though unlikely to matter in practice, this order
seemed wrong to me, so I have inverted it.

The difference between this and the previous patch is that now we use
ELF physical addresses only for loading objects into the target (and the
rest of the module load address logic still uses virtual addresses).
Summary:
When writing an object file over gdb-remote, use the vFlashErase, vFlashWrite, and vFlashDone commands if the write address is in a flash memory region. A bare metal target may have this kind of setup.
- Update ObjectFileELF to set load addresses using physical addresses. A typical case may be a data section with a physical address in ROM and a virtual address in RAM, which should be loaded to the ROM address.
- Add support for querying the target's qXfer:memory-map, which contains information about flash memory regions, leveraging MemoryRegionInfo data structures with minor modifications
- Update ProcessGDBRemote to use vFlash commands in DoWriteMemory when the target address is in a flash region

The rationale here is that ArchSpec is used throughout the codebase,
including in places which should not depend on the rest of the code in
the Core module.
This commit touches many files, but most of it is just renaming of
#include lines. In a couple of cases, I removed the #include ArchSpec
line altogether, as the file was not using it. In one or two places,
this necessitated adding other #includes like lldb-private-defines.h.

FreeBSD kernel modules are actually relocatable (.o) ELF files and this
previously caused some issues for LLDB. This change addresses these when
using lldb to symbolicate FreeBSD kernel backtraces.
The major problems:
- Relocations were not being applied to the DWARF debug info despite
there being code to do this. Several issues prevented it from working:
- Relocations are computed at the same time as the symbol table, but
in the case of split debug files, symbol table parsing always
redirects to the primary object file, meaning that relocations would
never be applied in the debug file.
- There's actually no guarantee that the symbol table has been parsed
yet when trying to parse debug information.
- When actually applying relocations, it will segfault because the
object files are not mapped with MAP_PRIVATE and PROT_WRITE.
- LLDB returned invalid results when performing ordinary address-to-
symbol resolution. It turned out that the addresses specified in the
section headers were all 0, so LLDB believed all the sections had
overlapping "file addresses" and would sometimes return a symbol from
the wrong section.

llvm-svn: 314672
Summary:
This is basically a revert of D16107 and parts of D10800, which were
trying to get vdso loading working. They did this by implementing a
generic load-an-elf-file from memory approach, which is not correct,
since we cannot assume that an elf file is loaded in memory in full (it
usually isn't, as there's no need to load section headers for example).
This meant that we would read garbage instead of section sizes, and if
that garbage happened to be a large number, we would crash while trying
to allocate a buffer to accomodate the hypothetical section.
Instead of this, I add a bit of custom code to load the vdso to
DynamicLoaderPOSIXDYLD (which already needed to handle the vdso
specially). I determine the size of the memory to read using
Process::GetMemoryRegionInfo, which is information coming from the OS,
and cannot be forged by a malicious/misbehaving application.

This renames the LLDB error class to Status, as discussed
on the lldb-dev mailing list.
A change of this magnitude cannot easily be done without
find and replace, but that has potential to catch unwanted
occurrences of common strings such as "Error". Every effort
was made to find all the obvious things such as the word "Error"
appearing in a string, etc, but it's possible there are still
some lingering occurences left around. Hopefully nothing too
serious.

UniqueCStringMap "sorts" the entries for fast lookup, but really it only cares about uniqueness.

*** to conform to clang-format’s LLVM style. This kind of mass change has
*** two obvious implications:
Firstly, merging this particular commit into a downstream fork may be a huge
effort. Alternatively, it may be worth merging all changes up to this commit,
performing the same reformatting operation locally, and then discarding the
merge for this particular commit. The commands used to accomplish this
reformatting were as follows (with current working directory as the root of
the repository):
find . \( -iname "*.c" -or -iname "*.cpp" -or -iname "*.h" -or -iname "*.mm" \) -exec clang-format -i {} +
find . -iname "*.py" -exec autopep8 --in-place --aggressive --aggressive {} + ;
The version of clang-format used was 3.9.0, and autopep8 was 1.2.4.
Secondly, “blame” style tools will generally point to this commit instead of
a meaningful prior commit. There are alternatives available that will attempt
to look through this change and find the appropriate prior commit. YMMV.

To do this I added a few new ways to determine the OS from PT_NOTE notes in the ELF file:
1 - Look for "LINUX" notes which indicate "linux" should be the OS
2 - Look through the "CORE" notes with NT_FILE as the type and sniff data from the paths listed in this section. On Ubuntu they contain "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu" which has the triple and allows us to set "linux" as the OS in the architecture returned from ObjectFileELF::GetArchitecture().
Setting the OS correctly allows us to get the triple correct so we can extract registers without asserting and killing LLDB.
Also use the data from the NT_FILE to set the main executable if one isn't set in ProcessElfCore::DoLoadCore().

Summary:
Symbols in ELF files can be versioned, but LLDB currently does not understand these. This problem
becomes apparent once one loads glibc with debug info. Here (in the .symtab section) the versions
are embedded in the name (name@VERSION), which causes issues when evaluating expressions
referencing memcpy for example (current glibc contains memcpy@@GLIBC_2.14 and
memcpy@GLIBC_2.2.5).
This problem was not evident without debug symbols as the .dynsym section
stores the bare names and the actual versions are present in a separate section (.gnu.version_d),
which LLDB ignores. This resulted in two definitions of memcpy in the symbol table.
This patch adds support for storing annotated names to the Symbol class. If
Symbol.m_contains_linker_annotations is true then this symbol is annotated. Unannotated name can
be obtained by calling StripLinkerAnnotations on the corresponding ObjectFile. ObjectFileELF
implements this to strip @VERSION suffixes when requested. Symtab uses this function to add the
bare name as well as the annotated name to the name lookup table.
To preserve the size of the Symbol class, I had to steal one bit from the m_type field.
Test Plan:
This fixes TestExprHelpExamples.py when run with a glibc with debug symbols. Writing
an environment agnostic test case would require building a custom shared library with symbol
versions and testing symbol resolution against that, which is somewhat challenging.

Previously ObjectFileELF was simplifying and assuming the object file it was
looking at was the same as the host architecture/triple. This would break
attempts to run, say, lldb on MacOSX against lldb-gdbserver on Linux since
the MacOSX lldb would say that the linux elf file was really an Apple MacOSX
architecture. Chaos would ensue.
This change allows the elf file to parse ELF notes for Linux, FreeBSD and
NetBSD, and determine the OS appropriately from them. It also initializes
the OS type from the ELF header OSABI if it is set (which it is for FreeBSD
but not for Linux).
Added a test with freebsd and linux images that verify that
'(lldb) image list -t -A' prints out the expected architecture for each.
