Also reduce the size of the lldb_private::Symbol objects by removing the
lldb_private::Function pointer that was in each symbol. Running Instruments
has shown that when debugging large applications with DWARF in .o files that
lldb_private::Symbol objects are one of the highest users of memory. No one
was using the Symbol::GetFunction() call anyway.

information generated for it. Say we have a concrete function "foo" which
has inlined function "a" which calls another inlined function "b":
foo
1 {
2 {
a ()
3 {
b ()
4 {
}
}
}
}
Sometimes we see the compiler generate an address range in the DWARF for "foo"
(block 1 above) as say [0x1000-0x1100). Then the range for "a" is something
like [0x1050-0x1060) (note that it is correctly scoped within the "foo"
address range). And then we get "b" which is a child of "a", yet the debug
info says it has a range of [0x1060-0x1080) (not contained within "a"). We now
detect this issue when making our blocks and add an extra range to "a".
Also added a new "lldb" logging category named "symbol" where we can find out
about symbol file errors and warnings.

are available, we currently will still index the DWARF ourselves
and assert if the name lookups differ. This will help us transition
to the new accelerator tables and make sure they are workng before
we switch over entirely.
llvm-svn: 140788
etc to specific source files.
Added SB API's to specify these source files & also more than one module.
Added an "exact" option to CompileUnit's FindLineEntry API.
llvm-svn: 140362
ModuleSP
Module::GetSP();
Since we are now using intrusive ref counts, we can easily turn any
pointer to a module into a shared pointer just by assigning it.
llvm-svn: 139984
Address ranges are now split up into two different tables:
- one in DWARFDebugInfo that is compile unit specific
- one in each DWARFCompileUnit that has exact function DIE offsets
This helps keep the size of the aranges down since the main table will get
uniqued and sorted and have consecutive ranges merged. We then only parse the
compile unit one on demand once we have determined that a compile unit contains
the address in question. We also now use the .debug_aranges section if there
is one instead of always indexing the DWARF manually.
NameToDIE now uses a UniqueCStringMap<dw_offset> map instead of a std::map.
std::map is very bulky as each node has 3 pointers and the key and value types.
This gets our NameToDIE entry down to 12 bytes each instead of 48 which saves
us a lot of memory when we have very large DWARF.
DWARFDebugAranges now has a smaller footprint for each range it contains to
save on memory.
llvm-svn: 139557
Set the default Source File & line to main (if it can be found.) at startup. Selecting the current thread & or frame resets
the current source file & line, and "source list" as well as the breakpoint command "break set -l <NUM>" will use the
current source file.
llvm-svn: 139323
DWARF accelerator table sections to the DWARF parser. These sections are similar
to the .debug_pubnames and .debug_pubtypes, but they are designed to be hash tables
that are saved to disc in a way that the sections can just be loaded into memory
and used without any work on the debugger side. The .debug_pubnames and .debug_pubtypes
sections are not ordered, contain a copy of the name in the section itself which
makes these sections quite large, they only include publicly exported names (so no
static functions, no types defined inside functions), many compilers put different
information in them making them very unreliable so most debugger ignore these sections
and parse the DWARF on their own. The tables must also be parsed and sorted in order
to be used effectively. The new sections can be quickly loaded and very efficiently be used
to do name to DIE lookups with very little up front work. The format of these new
sections will be changing while we work out the bugs, but we hope to have really
fast name to DIE lookups soon.
llvm-svn: 138979
C++ methods for a function depending on how the DWARF was
created. Now we parse the class type from the definition,
and all methods that use DW_AT_specification or DW_AT_abstract_origin
attributes to point to the definition, now won't create
duplicate entries. This is in response to how clang++ creates
much different DWARF than gcc.
llvm-svn: 137737
was failing if the DWARF was laid out in a certain way. The way
we detect C++ classes is now more robust so that a class method
can be defined outside of the class and refer to a definition inside
the class with a DW_AT_specification or DW_AT_abstract_origin attribute.
Fixed a case in Thread.cpp where we were looking up info in the frame
when we didn't need to. This was from some changes to support external
editors. Now the info is only looked up if needed.
llvm-svn: 137436
that detects what context the current expression is
meant to execute in. LLDB now properly consults
the method declaration in the debug information
rather than trying to hunt down the "this" or "self"
pointer by name, which can be misleading.
Other fixes include:
- LLDB now properly detects that it is inside
an inlined C++ member function.
- LLDB now allows access to non-const members when
in const code.
- The functions in SymbolFile that locate the
DeclContext containing a DIE have been renamed
to reflect what they actually do. I have added
new functions that find the DeclContext for the
DIE itself.
I have also introduced testcases for C++ and
Objective-C.
llvm-svn: 136999
appropriately between C++ static methods and non-static
methods. This bug made it impossible to call most static
methods, either because Clang did not recognize that a
method could be called without providing a "this"
parameter, or because Clang did not properly mangle the
name of the method when searching for it in the target.
Also added a testcase.
llvm-svn: 136733
completes the support in the LLDB expression parser
for incomplete types. Clang now imports types
lazily, and we complete those types as necessary.
Changes include:
- ClangASTSource now supports three APIs which it
passes to ClangExpressionDeclMap. CompleteType
completes a TagDecl or an ObjCInterfaceDecl when
needed; FindExternalVisibleDecls finds named
entities that are visible in the expression's
scope; and FindExternalLexicalDecls performs a
(potentially restricted) search for entities
inside a lexical scope like a namespace. These
changes mean that entities in namespaces should
work normally.
- The SymbolFileDWARF code for searching a context
for a specific name is now more general, and can
search arbitrary contexts.
- We are continuing to adapt our calls into LLVM
from interfaces that take start and end iterators
when accepting multiple items to interfaces that
use ArrayRef.
- I have cleaned up some code, especially our use
of namespaces.
This change is neutral for our testsuite and greatly
improves correctness for large programs (like Clang)
with complicated type systems. It should also lay
the groundwork for improving the expression parser's
performance as we are lazier and lazier about
providing type information.
llvm-svn: 136555
by name by adding an extra parameter to the lldb_private::Target breakpoint
setting functions.
Added a function in the DWARF symbol file plug-in that can dump errors
and prints out which DWARF file the error is happening in so we can track
down what used to be assertions easily.
Fixed the MacOSX kernel plug-in to properly read the kext images and set
the kext breakpoint to watch for kexts as they are loaded.
llvm-svn: 134990
variables prior to running your binary. Zero filled sections now get
section data correctly filled with zeroes when Target::ReadMemory
reads from the object file section data.
Added new option groups and option values for file lists. I still need
to hook up all of the options to "target variable" to allow more complete
introspection by file and shlib.
Added the ability for ValueObjectVariable objects to be created with
only the target as the execution context. This allows them to be read
from the object files through Target::ReadMemory(...).
Added a "virtual Module * GetModule()" function to the ValueObject
class. By default it will look to the parent variable object and
return its module. The module is needed when we have global variables
that have file addresses (virtual addresses that are specific to
module object files) and in turn allows global variables to be displayed
prior to running.
Removed all of the unused proxy object support that bit rotted in
lldb_private::Value.
Replaced a lot of places that used "FileSpec::Compare (lhs, rhs) == 0" code
with the more efficient "FileSpec::Equal (lhs, rhs)".
Improved logging in GDB remote plug-in.
llvm-svn: 134579
"struct ", "class ", and "union " from the start of any type names that are
extracted from clang QualType objects. I had to fix test suite cases that
were expecting the struct/union/class prefix to be there.
llvm-svn: 134132
inspection of namespaces in the expression parser.
ClangExpressionDeclMap hitherto reported that namespaces had
been completely imported, even though the namespaces are
returned empty. To deal with this situation, ClangASTSource
was recently extended with an API to complete incomplete type
definitions, and, for greater efficiency, to complete these
definitions partially, returning only those objects that have
a given name.
This commit supports these APIs on LLDB's side, and uses it
to provide information on types resident in namespaces.
Namespaces are now imported as they were -- that is to say,
empty -- but with minimal import mode on. This means that
Clang will come back and request their contents by name as
needed. We now respond with information on the contained
types; this will be followed soon by information on functions
and variables.
llvm-svn: 133852
issue in the way block variables are marked as parsed. In the DWARF parser we
always parse all blocks for a function at once, so we can mark all blocks as
having all variables parsed and avoid recursive function calls to try and
reparse things that have already been handled.
Fixed an issue with how variables get scoped into blocks. The DWARF parser can
now handle abtract class definitions that contain concrete static variables.
When the concrete instance of the class functions get instantiated, they will
track down the concrete block for the abtract block and add the variable to
each block.

darwin (not sure about other platforms).
Modified the communication and connection classes to not require the
BytesAvailable function. Now the "Read(...)" function has a timeout in
microseconds.
Fixed a lot of assertions that were firing off in certain cases and replaced
them with error output and code that can deal with the assertion case.

for templatized types that could cause parts of a std::vector (and I am sure
other STL types) to be incorrectly uniqued to each other wreaking havoc on

an interface to a local or remote debugging platform. By default each host OS
that supports LLDB should be registering a "default" platform that will be
used unless a new platform is selected. Platforms are responsible for things
such as:
- getting process information by name or by processs ID
- finding platform files. This is useful for remote debugging where there is
an SDK with files that might already or need to be cached for debug access.
- getting a list of platform supported architectures in the exact order they
should be selected. This helps the native x86 platform on MacOSX select the
correct x86_64/i386 slice from universal binaries.
- Connect to remote platforms for remote debugging
- Resolving an executable including finding an executable inside platform
specific bundles (macosx uses .app bundles that contain files) and also
selecting the appropriate slice of universal files for a given platform.
So by default there is always a local platform, but remote platforms can be
connected to. I will soon be adding a new "platform" command that will support
the following commands:
(lldb) platform connect --name machine1 macosx connect://host:port
Connected to "machine1" platform.
(lldb) platform disconnect macosx
This allows LLDB to be well setup to do remote debugging and also once
connected process listing and finding for things like:
(lldb) process attach --name x<TAB>
The currently selected platform plug-in can now auto complete any available
processes that start with "x". The responsibilities for the platform plug-in
will soon grow and expand.

ArchDefaultUnwindPlan plug-in interfaces are now cached per architecture
instead of being leaked for every frame.
Split the ArchDefaultUnwindPlan_x86 into ArchDefaultUnwindPlan_x86_64 and
ArchDefaultUnwindPlan_i386 interfaces.
There were sporadic crashes that were due to something leaking or being
destroyed when doing stack crawls. This patch should clear up these issues.
llvm-svn: 125541
module's AST context. Prior to this fix, with gcc binaries, we end up with
a full class definition for any used classes in each compile unit due to the
one definition rule. This would result in us making N copies of class T, where
N is the number of compile units that use class T, in the module AST. When
an expression would then try and use any types that were duplicated, it would
quickly confuse clang and make expression evaluation fail due to all of the
duplicate types that got copied over. This is now fixed by making a map of
types in the DWARF that maps type names to a collection of types + declaration
(file + line number) + DIE. Then later when we find a type we look in this
module map and find any already cached types that we can just use.

LLDB plugin directory and a user LLDB plugin directory. We currently still
need to work out at what layer the plug-ins will be, but at least we are
prepared for plug-ins. Plug-ins will attempt to be loaded from the
"/Developer/Library/PrivateFrameworks/LLDB.framework/Resources/Plugins"
folder, and from the "~/Library/Application Support/LLDB/Plugins" folder on
MacOSX. Each plugin will be scanned for:
extern "C" bool LLDBPluginInitialize(void);
extern "C" void LLDBPluginTerminate(void);
If at least LLDBPluginInitialize is found, the plug-in will be loaded. The
LLDBPluginInitialize function returns a bool that indicates if the plug-in
should stay loaded or not (plug-ins might check the current OS, current
hardware, or anything else and determine they don't want to run on the current
host). The plug-in is uniqued by path and added to a static loaded plug-in
map. The plug-in scanning happens during "lldb_private::Initialize()" which
calls to the PluginManager::Initialize() function. Likewise with termination
lldb_private::Terminate() calls PluginManager::Terminate(). The paths for the
plug-in directories is fetched through new Host calls:
bool Host::GetLLDBPath (ePathTypeLLDBSystemPlugins, dir_spec);
bool Host::GetLLDBPath (ePathTypeLLDBUserPlugins, dir_spec);
This way linux and other systems can define their own appropriate locations
for plug-ins to be loaded.
To allow dynamic shared library loading, the Host layer has also been modified
to include shared library open, close and get symbol:
static void *
Host::DynamicLibraryOpen (const FileSpec &file_spec,
Error &error);
static Error
Host::DynamicLibraryClose (void *dynamic_library_handle);
static void *
Host::DynamicLibraryGetSymbol (void *dynamic_library_handle,
const char *symbol_name,
Error &error);
lldb_private::FileSpec also has been modified to support directory enumeration
in an attempt to abstract the directory enumeration into one spot in the code.
The directory enumertion function is static and takes a callback:
typedef enum EnumerateDirectoryResult
{
eEnumerateDirectoryResultNext, // Enumerate next entry in the current directory
eEnumerateDirectoryResultEnter, // Recurse into the current entry if it is a directory or symlink, or next if not
eEnumerateDirectoryResultExit, // Exit from the current directory at the current level.
eEnumerateDirectoryResultQuit // Stop directory enumerations at any level
};
typedef FileSpec::EnumerateDirectoryResult (*EnumerateDirectoryCallbackType) (void *baton,
FileSpec::FileType file_type,
const FileSpec &spec);
static FileSpec::EnumerateDirectoryResult
FileSpec::EnumerateDirectory (const char *dir_path,
bool find_directories,
bool find_files,
bool find_other,
EnumerateDirectoryCallbackType callback,
void *callback_baton);
This allow clients to specify the directory to search, and specifies if only
files, directories or other (pipe, symlink, fifo, etc) files will cause the
callback to be called. The callback also gets to return with the action that
should be performed after this directory entry. eEnumerateDirectoryResultNext
specifies to continue enumerating through a directory with the next entry.
eEnumerateDirectoryResultEnter specifies to recurse down into a directory
entry, or if the file is not a directory or symlink/alias to a directory, then
just iterate to the next entry. eEnumerateDirectoryResultExit specifies to
exit the current directory and skip any entries that might be remaining, yet
continue enumerating to the next entry in the parent directory. And finally
eEnumerateDirectoryResultQuit means to abort all directory enumerations at
all levels.
Modified the Declaration class to not include column information currently
since we don't have any compilers that currently support column based
declaration information. Columns support can be re-enabled with the
additions of a #define.
Added the ability to find an EmulateInstruction plug-in given a target triple
and optional plug-in name in the plug-in manager.
Fixed a few cases where opendir/readdir was being used, but yet not closedir
was being used. Soon these will be deprecated in favor of the new directory
enumeration call that was added to the FileSpec class.
llvm-svn: 124716
lldb_private::Function objects. Previously the SymbolFileSymtab subclass
would return lldb_private::Symbol objects when it was asked to find functions.
The Module::FindFunctions (...) now take a boolean "bool include_symbols" so
that the module can track down functions and symbols, yet functions are found
by the SymbolFile plug-ins (through the SymbolVendor class), and symbols are
gotten through the ObjectFile plug-ins.
Fixed and issue where the DWARF parser might run into incomplete class member
function defintions which would make clang mad when we tried to make certain
member functions with invalid number of parameters (such as an operator=
operator that had no parameters). Now we just avoid and don't complete these
incomplete functions.
llvm-svn: 124359
types. What was happening was the DWARF parser was almost ignoring definitions
(DIEs with the DW_AT_declaration set to 1). It wasn't ignoring declarations
that had _some_ children. When this happened, we would treat the declaration
as a complete type. Often we would have a declaration of a type with just
some enum definitions inside and nothing else. Now we correctly ignore these
definitions, and also I added some changes to allow us to figure out what
decl context these special declarations actually point to.
llvm-svn: 124179
the way LLDB lazily gets complete definitions for types within the debug info.
When we run across a class/struct/union definition in the DWARF, we will only
parse the full definition if we need to. This works fine for top level types
that are assigned directly to variables and arguments, but when we have a
variable with a class, lets say "A" for this example, that has a member:
"B *m_b". Initially we don't need to hunt down a definition for this class
unless we are ever asked to do something with it ("expr m_b->getDecl()" for
example). With my previous approach to lazy type completion, we would be able
to take a "A *a" and get a complete type for it, but we wouldn't be able to
then do an "a->m_b->getDecl()" unless we always expanded all types within a
class prior to handing out the type. Expanding everything is very costly and
it would be great if there were a better way.
A few months ago I worked with the llvm/clang folks to have the
ExternalASTSource class be able to complete classes if there weren't completed
yet:
class ExternalASTSource {
....
virtual void
CompleteType (clang::TagDecl *Tag);
virtual void
CompleteType (clang::ObjCInterfaceDecl *Class);
};
This was great, because we can now have the class that is producing the AST
(SymbolFileDWARF and SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap) sign up as external AST sources
and the object that creates the forward declaration types can now also
complete them anywhere within the clang type system.
This patch makes a few major changes:
- lldb_private::Module classes now own the AST context. Previously the TypeList
objects did.
- The DWARF parsers now sign up as an external AST sources so they can complete
types.
- All of the pure clang type system wrapper code we have in LLDB (ClangASTContext,
ClangASTType, and more) can now be iterating through children of any type,
and if a class/union/struct type (clang::RecordType or ObjC interface)
is found that is incomplete, we can ask the AST to get the definition.
- The SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap class now will create and use a single AST that
all child SymbolFileDWARF classes will share (much like what happens when
we have a complete linked DWARF for an executable).
We will need to modify some of the ClangUserExpression code to take more
advantage of this completion ability in the near future. Meanwhile we should
be better off now that we can be accessing any children of variables through
pointers and always be able to resolve the clang type if needed.

Anytime we had a valid python list that was trying to go from Python down into
our C++ API, it was allocating too little memory and it ended up smashing
whatever was next to the allocated memory.
Added typemap conversions for "void *, size_t" so we can get
SBProcess::ReadMemory() working. Also added a typemap for "const void *, size_t"
so we can get SBProcess::WriteMemory() to work.
Fixed an issue in the DWARF parser where we weren't correctly calculating the
DeclContext for all types and classes. We now should be a lot more accurate.
Fixes include: enums should now be setting their parent decl context correctly.
We saw a lot of examples where enums in classes were not being properly
namespace scoped. Also, classes within classes now get properly scoped.
Fixed the objective C runtime pointer checkers to let "nil" pointers through
since these are accepted by compiled code. We also now don't call "abort()"
when a pointer doesn't validate correctly since this was wreaking havoc on
the process due to the way abort() works. We now just dereference memory
which should give us an exception from which we can easily and reliably
recover.
