llvm's json parser supports uint64_t, so let's better use it for the
packets being sent between lldb and lldb-server instead of using int64_t
as an intermediate type, which might be error-prone.
I'm refactoring IntelPTThreadTrace into IntelPTSingleBufferTrace so that it can

In order to open perf events per core, we need to first get the list of
core ids available in the system. So I'm adding a function that does
that by parsing /proc/cpuinfo. That seems to be the simplest and most
portable way to do that.
Besides that, I made a few refactors and renames to reflect better that
the cpu info that we use in lldb-server comes from procfs.

This patch handles the situation where the main thread exits (through
the SYS_exit syscall). In this case, the process as a whole continues
running until all of the other threads exit, or one of them issues an
exit_group syscall.
The patch consists of two changes:
- a moderate redesign of the handling of thread exit (WIFEXITED) events.
Previously, we were removing (forgetting) a thread once we received
the WIFEXITED (or WIFSIGNALED) event. This was problematic for the
main thread, since the main thread WIFEXITED event (which is better thought
of as a process-wide event) gets reported only after the entire process
exits. This resulted in deadlocks, where we were waiting for the
process to stop (because we still considered the main thread "live").
This patch changes the logic such that the main thread is removed as
soon as its PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT (the pre-exit) event is received. At
this point we can consider the thread gone (for most purposes). As a
corrolary, I needed to add special logic to catch process-wide exit
events in the cases where we don't have the main thread around.
- The second part of the patch is the removal of the assumptions that
the main thread is always available. This generally meant replacing
the uses of GetThreadByID(process_id) with GetCurrentThread() in
various process-wide operations (such as memory reads).

Most of our code was including Log.h even though that is not where the
"lldb" log channel is defined (Log.h defines the generic logging
infrastructure). This worked because Log.h included Logging.h, even
though it should.
After the recent refactor, it became impossible the two files include
each other in this direction (the opposite inclusion is needed), so this
patch removes the workaround that was put in place and cleans up all
files to include the right thing. It also renames the file to LLDBLog to
better reflect its purpose.
This better describes the intent of the method. Which for AArch64
is removing the top byte which includes the memory tags.
It does not include pointer signatures, for those we need to use
the ABI plugin. The rename makes this a little more clear.
It's a bit awkward that the memory tag manager is removing the whole
top byte not just the memory tags but it's an improvement for now.

D116372, while fixing one kind of a race, ended up creating a new one.
The new issue could occur when one inferior thread exits while another
thread initiates termination of the entire process (exit_group(2)).
With some bad luck, we could start processing the exit notification
(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT) only to have the become unresponsive (ESRCH) in the
middle of the MonitorCallback function. This function would then delete
the thread from our list even though it wasn't completely dead (it stays
zombified until we read the WIFEXITED event). The linux kernel will not
deliver the exited event for the entire process until we process
individual thread exits.
In a pre-D116372 world, this wouldn't be a problem because we would read
this event (even though we would not know what to do with it) with
waitpid(-1). Now, when we issue invididual waitpids, this event will
never be picked up, and we end up hanging.
The fix for this is actually quite simple -- don't delete the thread in
this situation. The thread will be deleted when the WIFEXITED event
comes.
This situation was kind of already tested by
TestCreateDuringInstructionStep (which is how I found this problem), but
it was mostly accidental, so I am also creating a dedicated test which
reproduces this situation.
The lldb-server code is currently set up in a way that each
NativeProcess instance does its own waitpid handling. This works fine
for BSDs, where the code can do a waitpid(process_id), and get
information for all threads in that process.
The situation is trickier on linux, because waitpid(pid) will only
return information for the main thread of the process (one whose tid ==
pid). For this reason the linux code does a waitpid(-1), to get
information for all threads. This was fine while we were supporting just
a single process, but becomes a problem when we have multiple processes
as they end up stealing each others events.
There are two possible solutions to this problem:
- call waitpid(-1) centrally, and then dispatch the events to the
appropriate process
- have each process call waitpid(tid) for all the threads it manages
This patch implements the second approach. Besides fitting better into
the existing design, it also has the added benefit of ensuring
predictable ordering for thread/process creation events (which come in
pairs -- one for the parent and one for the child). The first approach
OTOH, would make this ordering even more complicated since we would
have to keep the half-threads hanging in mid-air until we find the
process we should attach them to.
The downside to this approach is an increased number of syscalls (one
waitpid for each thread), but I think we're pretty far from optimizing
things like this, and so the cleanliness of the design is worth it.
The included test reproduces the circumstances which should demonstrate
the bug (which manifests as a hung test), but I have not been able to
get it to fail. The only place I've seen this failure modes are very
rare hangs in the thread sanitizer tests (tsan forks an addr2line
process to produce its error messages).

The MonitorCallback function was assuming that the "exited" argument is
set whenever a thread exits, but the caller was only setting that flag
for the main thread.
This patch deletes the argument altogether, and lets MonitorCallback
compute what it needs itself.
This is almost NFC, since previously we would end up in the
"GetSignalInfo failed for unknown reasons" branch, which was doing the
same thing -- forgetting about the thread.

This is implemented using the QMemTags packet, as specified
by GDB in:
https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/General-Query-Packets.html#General-Query-Packets
(recall that qMemTags was previously added to read tags)
On receipt of a valid packet lldb-server will:
* align the given address and length to granules
(most of the time lldb will have already done this
but the specification doesn't guarantee it)
* Repeat the supplied tags as many times as needed to cover
the range. (if tags > range we just use as many as needed)
* Call ptrace POKEMTETAGS to write the tags.
The ptrace step will loop just like the tag read does,
until all tags are written or we get an error.
Meaning that if ptrace succeeds it could be a partial write.
So we call it again and if we then get an error, return an error to
lldb.
We are not going to attempt to restore tags after a partial
write followed by an error. This matches the behaviour of the
existing memory writes.
The lldb-server tests have been extended to include read and
write in the same test file. With some updated function names
since "qMemTags" vs "QMemTags" isn't very clear when they're

This adds memory tag reading using the new "qMemTags"
packet and ptrace on AArch64 Linux.
This new packet is following the one used by GDB.
(https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/General-Query-Packets.html)
On AArch64 Linux we use ptrace's PEEKMTETAGS to read
tags and we assume that lldb has already checked that the
memory region actually has tagging enabled.
We do not assume that lldb has expanded the requested range
to granules and expand it again to be sure.
(although lldb will be sending aligned ranges because it happens
to need them client side anyway)
Also we don't assume untagged addresses. So for AArch64 we'll
remove the top byte before using them. (the top byte includes
MTE and other non address data)
To do the ptrace read NativeProcessLinux will ask the native
register context for a memory tag manager based on the
type in the packet. This also gives you the ptrace numbers you need.
(it's called a register context but it also has non register data,
so it saves adding another per platform sub class)
The only supported platform for this is AArch64 Linux and the only
supported tag type is MTE allocation tags. Anything else will
error.
Ptrace can return a partial result but for lldb-server we will
be treating that as an error. To succeed we need to get all the tags
we expect.
(Note that the protocol leaves room for logical tags to be
read via qMemTags but this is not going to be implemented for lldb
at this time.)
