The Unwind and RegisterContext subclasses still need
to be finished; none of this code is used by lldb at
this point (unless you call into it by hand).
The ObjectFile class now has an UnwindTable object.
The UnwindTable object has a series of FuncUnwinders
objects (Function Unwinders) -- one for each function
in that ObjectFile we've backtraced through during this
debug session.
The FuncUnwinders object has a few different UnwindPlans.
UnwindPlans are a generic way of describing how to find
the canonical address of a given function's stack frame
(the CFA idea from DWARF/eh_frame) and how to restore the
caller frame's register values, if they have been saved
by this function.
UnwindPlans are created from different sources. One source is the
eh_frame exception handling information generated by the compiler
for unwinding an exception throw. Another source is an assembly
language inspection class (UnwindAssemblyProfiler, uses the Plugin
architecture) which looks at the instructions in the funciton
prologue and describes the stack movements/register saves that are
done.
Two additional types of UnwindPlans that are worth noting are
the "fast" stack UnwindPlan which is useful for making a first
pass over a thread's stack, determining how many stack frames there
are and retrieving the pc and CFA values for each frame (enough
to create StackFrameIDs). Only a minimal set of registers is
recovered during a fast stack walk.
The final UnwindPlan is an architectural default unwind plan.
These are provided by the ArchDefaultUnwindPlan class (which uses
the plugin architecture). When no symbol/function address range can
be found for a given pc value -- when we have no eh_frame information
and when we don't have a start address so we can't examine the assembly
language instrucitons -- we have to make a best guess about how to
unwind. That's when we use the architectural default UnwindPlan.
On x86_64, this would be to assume that rbp is used as a stack pointer
and we can use that to find the caller's frame pointer and pc value.
It's a last-ditch best guess about how to unwind out of a frame.
There are heuristics about when to use one UnwindPlan versues the other --
this will all happen in the still-begin-written UnwindLLDB subclass of
Unwind which runs the UnwindPlans.

parent, sibling and first child block, and access to the
inline function information.
Added an accessor the StackFrame:
Block * lldb_private::StackFrame::GetFrameBlock();
LLDB represents inline functions as lexical blocks that have
inlined function information in them. The function above allows
us to easily get the top most lexical block that defines a stack
frame. When there are no inline functions in function, the block
returned ends up being the top most block for the function. When
the PC is in an inlined funciton for a frame, this will return the
first parent block that has inlined function information. The
other accessor: StackFrame::GetBlock() will return the deepest block
that matches the frame's PC value. Since most debuggers want to display
all variables in the current frame, the Block returned by
StackFrame::GetFrameBlock can be used to retrieve all variables for
the current frame.
Fixed the lldb_private::Block::DumpStopContext(...) to properly
display inline frames a block should display all of its inlined
functions. Prior to this fix, one of the call sites was being skipped.
This is a separate code path from the current default where inlined
functions get their own frames.
Fixed an issue where a block would always grab variables for any
child inline function blocks.
llvm-svn: 113195
handles user settable internal variables (the equivalent of set/show
variables in gdb). In addition to the basic infrastructure (most of
which is defined in UserSettingsController.{h,cpp}, there are examples
of two classes that have been set up to contain user settable
variables (the Debugger and Process classes). The 'settings' command
has been modified to be a command-subcommand structure, and the 'set',
'show' and 'append' commands have been moved into this sub-commabnd
structure. The old StateVariable class has been completely replaced
by this, and the state variable dictionary has been removed from the
Command Interpreter. Places that formerly accessed the state variable
mechanism have been modified to access the variables in this new
structure instead (checking the term-width; getting/checking the
prompt; etc.)
Variables are attached to classes; there are two basic "flavors" of
variables that can be set: "global" variables (static/class-wide), and
"instance" variables (one per instance of the class). The whole thing
has been set up so that any global or instance variable can be set at
any time (e.g. on start up, in your .lldbinit file), whether or not
any instances actually exist (there's a whole pending and default
values mechanism to help deal with that).
llvm-svn: 113041
Added extra logging for stepping.
Fixed an issue where cached stack frame data could be lost between runs when
the thread plans read a stack frame.
llvm-svn: 112973
might dump file paths that allows the dumping of full paths or just the
basenames. Switched the stack frame dumping code to use just the basenames for
the files instead of the full path.
Modified the StackID class to no rely on needing the start PC for the current
function/symbol since we can use the SymbolContextScope to uniquely identify
that, unless there is no symbol context scope. In that case we can rely upon
the current PC value. This saves the StackID from having to calculate the
start PC when the StackFrame::GetStackID() accessor is called.
Also improved the StackID less than operator to correctly handle inlined stack
frames in the same stack.
llvm-svn: 112867
function statics, file globals and static variables) that a frame contains.
The StackFrame objects can give out ValueObjects instances for
each variable which allows us to track when a variable changes and doesn't
depend on variable names when getting value objects.
StackFrame::GetVariableList now takes a boolean to indicate if we want to
get the frame compile unit globals and static variables.
The value objects in the stack frames can now correctly track when they have
been modified. There are a few more tweaks needed to complete this work. The
biggest issue is when stepping creates partial stacks (just frame zero usually)
and causes previous stack frames not to match up with the current stack frames
because the previous frames only has frame zero. We don't really want to
require that all previous frames be complete since stepping often must check
stack frames to complete their jobs. I will fix this issue tomorrow.
llvm-svn: 112800
documentation. Symbol now inherits from the symbol
context scope so that the StackID can use a "SymbolContextScope *"
instead of a blockID (which could have been the same as some other
blockID from another symbol file).
Modified the stacks that are created on subsequent stops to reuse
the previous stack frame objects which will allow for some internal
optimization using pointer comparisons during stepping.
llvm-svn: 112495
swaps on the variable list, value object list, and disassembly. This avoids
us having to try and update frame indexes and other things that were getting
out of sync.
llvm-svn: 112301
instead of trying to maintain the real frame list (unwind frames) and an
inline frame list. The information is cheap to produce when we already have
looked up a block and was making stack frame uniquing difficult when trying
to use the previous stack when making the current stack.
We now maintain the previous value object lists for common frames between
a previous and current frames so we will be able to tell when variable values
change.
llvm-svn: 112277
code stepping. Also we now store the stack frames for the current and previous
stops in the thread in std::auto_ptr objects. When we create a thread stack
frame list we pass the previous frame into it so it can re-use the frames
and maintain will allow for variable changes to be detected. I will implement
the stack frame reuse next.
llvm-svn: 112152
functionality into StackFrameList. This will allow us to copy the previous
stack backtrace from the previous stop into another variable so we can re-use
as much as possible from the previous stack backtrace.
llvm-svn: 112007
has inlined functions that all started at the same address, then the inlined
backtrace would not produce correct stack frames.
Also cleaned up and inlined a lot of stuff in lldb_private::Address.
Added a function to StackFrame to detect if the frame is a concrete frame so
we can detect the difference between actual frames and inlined frames.
llvm-svn: 111989
complex inlined examples.
StackFrame classes don't have a "GetPC" anymore, they have "GetFrameCodeAddress()".
This is because inlined frames will have a PC value that is the same as the
concrete frame that owns the inlined frame, yet the code locations for the
frame can be different. We also need to be able to get the real PC value for
a given frame so that variables evaluate correctly. To get the actual PC
value for a frame you can use:
addr_t pc = frame->GetRegisterContext()->GetPC();
Some issues with the StackFrame stomping on its own symbol context were
resolved which were causing the information to change for a frame when the
stack ID was calculated. Also the StackFrame will now correctly store the
symbol context resolve flags for any extra bits of information that were
looked up (if you ask for a block only and you find one, you will alwasy have
the compile unit and function).
llvm-svn: 111964
which is now on by default. Frames are gotten from the unwinder as concrete
frames, then if inline frames are to be shown, extra information to track
and reconstruct these frames is cached with each Thread and exanded as needed.
I added an inline height as part of the lldb_private::StackID class, the class
that helps us uniquely identify stack frames. This allows for two frames to
shared the same call frame address, yet differ only in inline height.
Fixed setting breakpoint by address to not require addresses to resolve.

Each inline frame contains only the variables that they contain and each inlined
stack frame is treated as a single entity.

to spawn a thread for each process that is being monitored. Previously
LLDB would spawn a single thread that would wait for any child process which
isn't ok to do as a shared library (LLDB.framework on Mac OSX, or lldb.so on
linux). The old single thread used to call wait4() with a pid of -1 which
could cause it to reap child processes that it shouldn't have.
Re-wrote the way Function blocks are handles. Previously I attempted to keep
all blocks in a single memory allocation (in a std::vector). This made the
code somewhat efficient, but hard to work with. I got rid of the old BlockList
class, and went to a straight parent with children relationship. This new
approach will allow for partial parsing of the blocks within a function.

(lldb) expr int $i = 5; $i + 1
(int) 6

The skeleton for automatic result variables is
also implemented. The changes affect:
- the process, which now contains a
ClangPersistentVariables object that holds
persistent variables associated with it
- the expression parser, which now uses
the persistent variables during variable
lookup
- TaggedASTType, where I loaded some commonly
used tags into a header so that they are
interchangeable between different clients of
the class

stop event is pulled from the event queue. Then made the StopInfoBreakpoint's PerformAction do the

Arrange that this then gets properly set on attach, or when a "file" is set.
Add a completer for "process attach -n".
Caveats: there isn't currently a way to handle multiple processes with the same name. That
will have to wait on a way to pass annotations along with the completion strings.

This will allow debugger plug-ins to make any instance of "lldb_private::StopInfo"
that can completely describe any stop reason. It also provides a framework for
doing intelligent things with the stop info at important times in the lifetime
of the inferior.
Examples include the signal stop info in StopInfoUnixSignal. It will check with
the process to see that the current action is for the signal. These actions
include wether to stop for the signal, wether the notify that the signal was
hit, and wether to pass the signal along to the inferior process. The
StopInfoUnixSignal class overrides the "ShouldStop()" method of StopInfo and
this allows the stop info to determine if it should stop at the signal or
continue the process.
StopInfo subclasses must override the following functions:
virtual lldb::StopReason
GetStopReason () const = 0;
virtual const char *
GetDescription () = 0;
StopInfo subclasses can override the following functions:
// If the subclass returns "false", the inferior will resume. The default
// version of this function returns "true" which means the default stop
// info will stop the process. The breakpoint subclass will check if
// the breakpoint wants us to stop by calling any installed callback on
// the breakpoint, and also checking if the breakpoint is for the current
// thread. Signals will check if they should stop based off of the
// UnixSignal settings in the process.
virtual bool
ShouldStop (Event *event_ptr);
// Sublasses can state if they want to notify the debugger when "ShouldStop"
// returns false. This would be handy for breakpoints where you want to
// log information and continue and is also used by the signal stop info
// to notify that a signal was received (after it checks with the process
// signal settings).
virtual bool
ShouldNotify (Event *event_ptr)
{
return false;
}
// Allow subclasses to do something intelligent right before we resume.
// The signal class will figure out if the signal should be propagated
// to the inferior process and pass that along to the debugger plug-ins.
virtual void
WillResume (lldb::StateType resume_state)
{
// By default, don't do anything

This relies on ThreadPlanStepOut working correctly, which it doesn't currently for Inlined functions, so this feature is only partially useful until we take care of Stepping Out of inlined functions.
Added an option to "thread step-in" to set the avoid regular expression. This is mostly for testing, once the Setting code is redone, we'll move this to a general setting.
