`frame variable` supports nested variable access, which the API calls "variable
expression paths". This change updates `dwim-print` to support a subset of supported
variable expression paths.
Consider the expression `a->b`. In C++, the arrow operator can be overloaded, and where
that is the case, expression evaluation must be used to evaluate it, not frame variable.
Likewise, the subscript operator can be overloaded.
To avoid those cases, this change introduces a limited support for variable expression
paths. Use of the dot operator is allowed.
Additionally, this change allows `dwim-print` to directly access children of `this` and
`self` (see AllowDirectIVarAccess). This functionality is also provided by the same
`GetValueForVariableExpressionPath` method.

When retrieving the location of the function declaration, we were
dropping the file component on the floor, which resulted in an amusingly
confusing situation were we displayed the file containing the
implementation of the function, but used the line number of the
declaration. This patch fixes that.
It required a small refactor Function::GetStartLineSourceLineInfo to
return a SupportFile (instead of just the file spec), which in turn
necessitated changes in a couple of other places as well.
Add the ability to override the disassembly CPU and CPU features through
a target setting (`target.disassembly-cpu` and
`target.disassembly-features`) and a `disassemble` command option
(`--cpu` and `--features`).
This is especially relevant for architectures like RISC-V which relies
heavily on CPU extensions.
The majority of this patch is plumbing the options through. I recommend
looking at DisassemblerLLVMC and the test for the observable change in
behavior.
Internally we use bazel in a way in which it can drop you in a LLDB
session with the target launched in a particular cwd, which is needed
for things to work. We've been making this automation work via `process
launch -w`. However, if later the user wants to restart the process with
`r`, then they end up using a different cwd for relaunching the process.
As a way to fix this, I'm adding a target-level setting that allows
configuring a default cwd used for launching the process without needing
the user to specify it manually.
If you build libstdc++ with "debug" strictness, the test
TestTypeLookup.py will assert. That's because we're calling llvm::sort
(which redirects to std::sort) with a function that doesn't obey strict
weak ordering.
The error was that when the two languages were equal, we're sometimes
returning `true` but strict weak ordering requires that always be false.
This patch just makes the function behave properly.
ValueObject is part of lldbCore for historical reasons, but conceptually
it deserves to be its own library. This does introduce a (link-time) circular
dependency between lldbCore and lldbValueObject, which is unfortunate
but probably unavoidable because so many things in LLDB rely on
ValueObject. We already have cycles and these libraries are never built
as dylibs so while this doesn't improve the situation, it also doesn't
make things worse.
The header includes were updated with the following command:
```
find . -type f -exec sed -i.bak "s%include \"lldb/Core/ValueObject%include \"lldb/ValueObject/ValueObject%" '{}' \;
```
Sometimes users (esp. gdb-longtime users) accidentally use GDB syntax,
such as `breakpoint foo`, and they would get an error message from LLDB
saying simply `Invalid command "breakpoint foo"`, which is not very
helpful.
This change provides additional suggestions to help correcting the
mistake.
This allows IDEs to render LLDB expression diagnostics to their liking
without relying on characterprecise ASCII art from LLDB. It is exposed
as a versioned SBStructuredData object, since it is expected that this
may need to be tweaked based on actual usage.
This reverts commit a89e01634f.
This is being reverted because it broke the test:
Unwind/trap_frame_sym_ctx.test
/Users/ec2-user/jenkins/workspace/llvm.org/lldb-cmake/llvm-project/lldb/test/Shell/Unwind/trap_frame_sym_ctx.test:21:10: error: CHECK: expected string not found in input
CHECK: frame #2: {{.*}}`main
Currently, our unwinder assumes that the functions are continuous (or at
least, that there are no functions which are "in the middle" of other
functions). Neither of these assumptions is true for functions optimized
by tools like propeller and (probably) bolt.
While there are many things that go wrong for these functions, the
biggest damage is caused by the unwind plan caching code, which
currently takes the maximalist extent of the function and assumes that
the unwind plan we get for that is going to be valid for all code inside
that range. If a part of the function has been moved into a "cold"
section, then the range of the function can be many megabytes, meaning
that any function within that range will probably fail to unwind.
We end up with this maximalist range because the unwinder asks for the
Function object for its range. This is only one of the strategies for
determining the range, but it is the first one -- and also the most
incorrect one. The second choice would is asking the eh_frame section
for the range of the function, and this one returns something reasonable
here (the address range of the current function fragment) -- which it
does because each fragment gets its own eh_frame entry (it has to,
because they have to be continuous).
With this in mind, this patch moves the eh_frame (and debug_frame) to
the front of the queue. I think that preferring this range makes sense
because eh_frame is one of the unwind plans that we return, and some
others (augmented eh_frame) are based on it. In theory this could break
some functions, where the debug info and eh_frame disagree on the extent
of the function (and eh_frame is the one who's wrong), but I don't know
of any such scenarios.
Somewhat recently, we made the change to hide the behavior to save LLDB
session history to the transcript buffer behind the flag
`interpreter.save-transcript`. By default, `interpreter.save-transcript`
is false. See #90703 for context.
I'm making a small update here to our `session save` messaging and some
help docs to clarify for users that aren't aware of this change. Maybe
`interpreter.save-transcript` could be true by default as well. Any
feedback welcome.

This patch is a reworking of Pete Lawrence's (@PortalPete) proposal
for better expression evaluator error messages:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/80938
Before:
```
$ lldb -o "expr a+b"
(lldb) expr a+b
error: <user expression 0>:1:1: use of undeclared identifier 'a'
a+b
^
error: <user expression 0>:1:3: use of undeclared identifier 'b'
a+b
^
```
After:
```
(lldb) expr a+b
^ ^
│ ╰─ error: use of undeclared identifier 'b'
╰─ error: use of undeclared identifier 'a'
```
This eliminates the confusing `<user expression 0>:1:3` source
location and avoids echoing the expression to the console again, which
results in a cleaner presentation that makes it easier to grasp what's
going on. You can't see it here, bug the word "error" is now also in
color, if so desired.
Depends on https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/106442.

If your arguments or option values are of a type that naturally uses one
of our common completion mechanisms, you will get completion for free.
But if you have your own custom values or if you want to do fancy things
like have `break set -s foo.dylib -n ba<TAB>` only complete on symbols
in foo.dylib, you can use this new mechanism to achieve that.
Sometimes you only want to temporarily disable a frame recognizer
instead of deleting it. In particular, when dealing with one of the
builtin frame recognizers, which cannot be restored after deletion.
To be able to write test cases for this functionality, I also changed
`lldb/test/API/commands/frame/recognizer` to use normal C instead of
Objective-C
As specified in the docs,
1) raw_string_ostream is always unbuffered and
2) the underlying buffer may be used directly
( 65b13610a5 for further reference )
* Don't call raw_string_ostream::flush(), which is essentially a no-op.
* Avoid unneeded calls to raw_string_ostream::str(), to avoid excess
indirection.
Recently in #107731 this change was revereted due to excess memory size
in `TestSkinnyCore`. This was due to a bug where a range's end was being
passed as size. Creating massive memory ranges.
Additionally, and requiring additional review, I added more unit tests
and more verbose logic to the merging of save core memory regions.
@jasonmolenda as an FYI.
Reapplies #106293, testing identified issue in the merging code. I used
this opportunity to strip CoreFileMemoryRanges to it's own file and then
add unit tests on it's behavior.
Now that more parts of LLDB know about SupportFiles, avoid going through
FileSpec (and losing the Checksum in the process). Instead, use the
SupportFile directly.
This patch removes all of the Set.* methods from Status.
This cleanup is part of a series of patches that make it harder use the
anti-pattern of keeping a long-lives Status object around and updating
it while dropping any errors it contains on the floor.
This patch is largely NFC, the more interesting next steps this enables
is to:
1. remove Status.Clear()
2. assert that Status::operator=() never overwrites an error
3. remove Status::operator=()
Note that step (2) will bring 90% of the benefits for users, and step
(3) will dramatically clean up the error handling code in various
places. In the end my goal is to convert all APIs that are of the form
` ResultTy DoFoo(Status& error)
`
to
` llvm::Expected<ResultTy> DoFoo()
`
How to read this patch?
The interesting changes are in Status.h and Status.cpp, all other
changes are mostly
` perl -pi -e 's/\.SetErrorString/ = Status::FromErrorString/g' $(git
grep -l SetErrorString lldb/source)
`
plus the occasional manual cleanup.
With this commit, we also hide the implementation details of
`std::invoke`. To do so, the `LibCXXFrameRecognizer` got a couple more
regular expressions.
The regular expression passed into `AddRecognizer` became problematic,
as it was evaluated on the demangled name. Those names also included
result types for C++ symbols. For `std::__invoke` the return type is a
huge `decltype(...)`, making the regular expresison really hard to
write.
Instead, I added support to `AddRecognizer` for matching on the
demangled names without result type and argument types.
By hiding the implementation details of `invoke`, also the back traces
for `std::function` become even nicer, because `std::function` is using
`__invoke` internally.

This patch adds the option to specify specific memory ranges to be
included in a given core file. The current implementation lets user
specified ranges either be in addition to a certain save style, or
independent of them via the newly added custom enum.
To achieve being inclusive of save style, I've moved from a std::vector
of ranges to a RangeDataVector, and to join overlapping ranges to
prevent duplication of memory ranges in the core file.
As a non function bonus, when SBSavecore was initially created, the
header was included in the lldb-private interfaces, and I've fixed that
and moved it the forward declare as an oversight. CC @bulbazord in case
we need to include that into swift.
Compilers and language runtimes often use helper functions that are
fundamentally uninteresting when debugging anything but the
compiler/runtime itself. This patch introduces a user-extensible
mechanism that allows for these frames to be hidden from backtraces and
automatically skipped over when navigating the stack with `up` and
`down`.
This does not affect the numbering of frames, so `f <N>` will still
provide access to the hidden frames. The `bt` output will also print a
hint that frames have been hidden.
My primary motivation for this feature is to hide thunks in the Swift
programming language, but I'm including an example recognizer for
`std::function::operator()` that I wished for myself many times while
debugging LLDB.
rdar://126629381
Example output. (Yes, my proof-of-concept recognizer could hide even
more frames if we had a method that returned the function name without
the return type or I used something that isn't based off regex, but it's
really only meant as an example).

This patch is a follow-up to #97263 that fix ambigous abbreviated
command resolution.
When multiple commands are resolved, instead of failing to pick a
command to
run, this patch changes to resolution logic to check if there is a
single
alias match and if so, it will run the alias instead of the other
matches.
This has as a side-effect that we don't need to make aliases for every
substring of aliases to support abbrivated alias resolution.
