the expression parser to locate instances where
dyn_cast<>() and isa<>() are used on types, and
replace them with getAs<>() as appropriate.
The difference is that dyn_cast<>() and isa<>()
are essentially LLVM/Clang's equivalent of RTTI
-- that is, they try to downcast the object and
return NULL if they cannot -- but getAs<>() can
traverse typedefs to perform a semantic cast.

validates the "self," "this," and "_cmd" pointers
that get passed into expressions. It used to check
them aggressively for validity before allowing the
expression to run as an object method; now, this
functionality is gated by a bool and off by default.
Now the default is that when LLDB is stopped in a
method of a class, code entered using "expr" will
always masquerade as an instance method. If for
some reason "self," "this," or "_cmd" is unavailable
it will be reported as NULL. This may cause the
expression to crash if it relies on those pointers,
but for example getting the addresses of ivars will
now work as the user would expect.
llvm-svn: 146465
from symbols more accessible, I have added a second
map to the ClangASTImporter: the ObjCInterfaceMetaMap.
This map keeps track of all type definitions found for
a particular Objective-C interface, allowing the
ClangASTSource to refer to all possible sources when
looking for method definitions.
There is a bug in lookup that I still need to figure out,
but after that we should be able to report full method
information for Objective-C classes shown in symbols.
Also fixed some errors I ran into when enabling the maps
for the persistent type store. The persistent type store
previously did not use the ClangASTImporter to import
types, instead using ASTImporters that got allocated each
time a type needed copying. To support the requirements
of the persistent type store -- namely, that types must be
copied, completed, and then completely severed from their
origin in the parser's AST context (which will go away) --
I added a new function called DeportType which severs all
these connections.
llvm-svn: 145914
of problems with Objective-C object completion. To go
along with the LLVM/Clang-side fixes, we have a variety
of Objective-C improvements.
Fixes include:
- It is now possible to run expressions when stopped in
an Objective-C class method and have "self" act just
like "self" would act in the class method itself (i.e.,
[self classMethod] works without casting the return
type if debug info is present). To accomplish this,
the expression masquerades as a class method added by
a category.
- Objective-C objects can now provide methods and
properties and methods to Clang on demand (i.e., the
ASTImporter sets hasExternalVisibleDecls on Objective-C
interface objects).
- Objective-C built-in types, which had long been a bone
of contention (should we be using "id"? "id*"?), are
now fetched correctly using accessor functions on
ClangASTContext. We inhibit searches for them in the
debug information.
There are also a variety of logging fixes, and I made two
changes to the test suite:
- Enabled a test case for Objective-C properties in the
current translation unit.
- Added a test case for calling Objective-C class methods
when stopped in a class method.
llvm-svn: 144607
which will in the future allow expressions to be
compiled as C, C++, and Objective-C instead of the
current default Objective-C++. This feature requires
some additional support from Clang -- specifically, it
requires reference types in the parser regardless of
language -- so it is not yet exposed to the user.
llvm-svn: 144042
target is stopped in a C++ or Objective-C method
but the "self" pointer's valid range actually
doesn't cover the current location. Before, that
was confusing Clang to the point where it crashed;
now, we sanity-check and fall back to pretending
we're in a C function if "self" or "this" isn't
available.
llvm-svn: 143676
AST importer on completing namespace mappings from
ClangExpressionDeclMap to ClangASTSource.
ClangASTSource now contains a TargetSP which it
uses to lookup namespaces in all of a target's
modules. I will use the TargetSP in the future to
look up globals.
llvm-svn: 143275
lifetime of ClangExpressionDeclMap. This allows
ClangExpressionVariables found during parsing to be
queried for their containing namespaces during
expression execution.
Other clients (like ClangFunction) explicitly delete
this state, so they should not result in any memory
leaks.
llvm-svn: 141821
expression into a separate class. This class
encapsulates wrapping the function as needed. I
am also moving from using booleans to indicate
what the expression's language should be to using
lldb::LanguageType instead.
llvm-svn: 140545
shared pointers.
Changed the ExecutionContext over to use shared pointers for
the target, process, thread and frame since these objects can
easily go away at any time and any object that was holding onto
an ExecutionContext was running the risk of using a bad object.
Now that the shared pointers for target, process, thread and
frame are just a single pointer (they all use the instrusive
shared pointers) the execution context is much safer and still
the same size.
Made the shared pointers in the the ExecutionContext class protected
and made accessors for all of the various ways to get at the pointers,
references, and shared pointers.
llvm-svn: 140298

expression execution. Also improved detection of
whether or not a process can execute expressions.

to execute expressions even in the absence of a process.
This allows expressions to run in situations where the
target cannot run -- e.g., to perform calculations based
on type information, or to inspect a binary's static
data.
This modification touches the following files:
lldb-private-enumerations.h
Introduce a new enum specifying the policy for
processing an expression. Some expressions should
always be JITted, for example if they are functions
that will be used over and over again. Some
expressions should always be interpreted, for
example if the target is unsafe to run. For most,
it is acceptable to JIT them, but interpretation
is preferable when possible.
Target.[h,cpp]
Have EvaluateExpression now accept the new enum.
ClangExpressionDeclMap.[cpp,h]
Add support for the IR interpreter and also make
the ClangExpressionDeclMap more robust in the
absence of a process.
ClangFunction.[cpp,h]
Add support for the new enum.
IRInterpreter.[cpp,h]
New implementation.
ClangUserExpression.[cpp,h]
Add support for the new enum, and for running
expressions in the absence of a process.
ClangExpression.h
Remove references to the old DWARF-based method
of evaluating expressions, because it has been
superseded for now.
ClangUtilityFunction.[cpp,h]
Add support for the new enum.
ClangExpressionParser.[cpp,h]
Add support for the new enum, remove references
to DWARF, and add support for checking whether
the expression could be evaluated statically.
IRForTarget.[h,cpp]
Add support for the new enum, and add utility
functions to support the interpreter.
IRToDWARF.cpp
Removed
CommandObjectExpression.cpp
Remove references to the obsolete -i option.
Process.cpp
Modify calls to ClangUserExpression::Evaluate
to pass the correct enum (for dlopen/dlclose)
SBValue.cpp
Add support for the new enum.
SBFrame.cpp
Add support for he new enum.
BreakpointOptions.cpp
Add support for the new enum.
llvm-svn: 139772
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
expression parser. You can use a persistent
type like this:
(lldb) expr struct $foo { int a; int b; };
(lldb) struct $foo i; i.a = 2; i.b = 3; i
($foo) $0 = {
(int) a = 2
(int) b = 3
}
typedefs work similarly.
This patch affects the following files:
test/expression_command/persistent_types/*
A test case for persistent types,
in particular structs and typedefs.
ClangForward.h
Added TypeDecl, needed to declare some
functions in ASTResultSynthesizer.h
ClangPersistentVariables.[h,cpp]
Added a list of persistent types to the
persistent variable store.
ASTResultSynthesizer.[h,cpp]
Made the AST result synthesizer iterate
across TypeDecls in the expression, and
record any persistent types found. Also
made a minor documentation fix.
ClangUserExpression.[h,cpp]
Extended the user expression class to
keep the state needed to report the
persistent variable store for the target
to the AST result synthesizers.
Also introduced a new error code for
expressions that executed normally but
did not return a result.
CommandObjectExpression.cpp
Improved output for expressions (like
declarations of new persistent types) that
don't return a result. This is no longer
treated as an error.
llvm-svn: 138383
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
current context. Previously, if there was a variable
called "self" available, the expression parser
assumed it was inside a method. But class methods
in Objective-C also take a "self" parameter, of DWARF
type "id". We now detect this properly, and only
assume we're in an instance method if "self" is a
pointer to an Objective-C object.
llvm-svn: 136784
Used hand merge to apply the diffs. I did not apply the diffs for FormatManager.h and
the diffs for memberwise initialization for ValueObject.cpp because they changed since.
I will ask my colleague to apply them later.
llvm-svn: 135508
Code cleanup:
- The Format Manager implementation is now split between two files: FormatClasses.{h|cpp} where the
actual formatter classes (ValueFormat, SummaryFormat, ...) are implemented and
FormatManager.{h|cpp} where the infrastructure classes (FormatNavigator, FormatManager, ...)
are contained. The wrapper code always remains in Debugger.{h|cpp}
- Several leftover fields, methods and comments from previous design choices have been removed
type category subcommands (enable, disable, delete) now can take a list of category names as input
- for type category enable, saying "enable A B C" is the same as saying
enable C
enable B
enable A
(the ordering is relevant in enabling categories, and it is expected that a user typing
enable A B C wants to look into category A, then into B, then into C and not the other
way round)
- for the other two commands, the order is not really relevant (however, the same inverted ordering
is used for consistency)
llvm-svn: 135494
into the mainline LLDB codebase. MCJIT introduces
API improvements and better architectural support.
This commit adds a new subsystem, the
ProcessDataAllocator, which is responsible for
performing static data allocations on behalf of the
IR transformer. MCJIT currently does not support
the relocations required to store the constant pool
in the same allocation as the function body, so we
allocate a heap region separately and redirect
static data references from the expression to that
heap region in a new IR modification pass.
This patch also fixes bugs in the IR
transformations that were exposed by the transition
to the MCJIT. Finally, the patch also pulls in a
more recent revision of LLVM so that the MCJIT is
available for use.
llvm-svn: 131923
Modified ClangUserExpression and ClangUtilityFunction to display the actual
error (if one is available) that made the JIT fail instead of a canned
response.
Fixed the restoring of all register values when the 'G' packet doesn't work
to use the correct data.

it to interpret a "this" variable that was merely
a pointer -- that is, not a class pointer -- as

Make MachThreadList more threadsafe.
Added code to make sure the thread register state was properly flushed for x86_64.
Fixed an missing return code for the current thread in the new thread suffix code.
Improved debugserver logging.
llvm-svn: 123815
I added support for asking if the GDB remote server supports thread suffixes
for packets that should be thread specific (register read/write packets) because
the way the GDB remote protocol does it right now is to have a notion of a
current thread for register and memory reads/writes (set via the "$Hg%x" packet)
and a current thread for running ("$Hc%x"). Now we ask the remote GDB server
if it supports adding the thread ID to the register packets and we enable
that feature in LLDB if supported. This stops us from having to send a bunch
of packets that update the current thread ID to some value which is prone to
error, or extra packets.

by LLDB. Instead of being materialized into the input structure
passed to the expression, variables are left in place and pointers
to them are materialzied into the structure. Variables not resident
in memory (notably, registers) get temporary memory regions allocated
for them.
Persistent variables are the most complex part of this, because they
are made in various ways and there are different expectations about
their lifetime. Persistent variables now have flags indicating their
status and what the expectations for longevity are. They can be
marked as residing in target memory permanently -- this is the
default for result variables from expressions entered on the command
line and for explicitly declared persistent variables (but more on
that below). Other result variables have their memory freed.
Some major improvements resulting from this include being able to
properly take the address of variables, better and cleaner support
for functions that return references, and cleaner C++ support in
general. One problem that remains is the problem of explicitly
declared persistent variables; I have not yet implemented the code
that makes references to them into indirect references, so currently
materialization and dematerialization of these variables is broken.
llvm-svn: 123371
line commands can use the current thread/frame.
Fixed an issue with expressions that get sandboxed in an objective C method
where unichar wasn't being passed down.
Added a "static size_t Scalar::GetMaxByteSize();" function in case we need
to know the max supported by size of something within a Scalar object.
