[lldb/cmake] Implicitly pass arguments to llvm_add_library (#142583)
If we're not touching them, we don't need to do anything special to pass
them along -- with one important caveat: due to how cmake arguments
work, the implicitly passed arguments need to be specified before
arguments that we handle.

This isn't particularly nice, but the alternative is enumerating all
arguments that can be used by llvm_add_library and the macros it calls
(it also relies on implicit passing of some arguments to
llvm_process_sources).

Add a new affordance that the Python module in a dSYM (#133290)
So the dSYM can be told what target it has been loaded into.

When lldb is loading modules, while creating a target, it will run
"command script import" on any Python modules in Resources/Python in the
dSYM. However, this happens WHILE the target is being created, so it is
not yet in the target list. That means that these scripts can't act on
the target that they a part of when they get loaded.

This patch adds a new python API that lldb will call:

__lldb_module_added_to_target

if it is defined in the module, passing in the Target the module was
being added to, so that code in these dSYM's don't have to guess.

[lldb] Make Python >= 3.8 required for LLDB 21 (#124735)
As decided on
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-lets-document-and-enforce-a-minimum-python-version-for-lldb/82731.

LLDB 20 recommended `>= 3.8` but did not remove support for anything
earlier. Now we are in what will become LLDB 21, so I'm removing that
support and making
`>= 3.8` required.

See https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/apiabiversion.html#c.PY_VERSION_HEX
for the format of PY_VERSION_HEX.

Add the ability to define custom completers to the parsed_cmd template. (#109062)
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.

This patch introduces new `ScriptedStopHook{,Python}Interface` classes
that make use of the Scripted Interface infrastructure and makes use of

It also relax the requirement on the number of argument for initializing
scripting extension if the size of the interface parameter pack contains
1 less element than the extension maximum number of positional arguments
for this initializer.
This addresses the cases where the embedded interpreter session
dictionary is passed to the extension initializer which is not used most
of the time.

Add the ability for Script based commands to specify their "repeat command" (#94823)
Among other things, returning an empty string as the repeat command
disables auto-repeat, which can be useful for state-changing commands.

There's one remaining refinement to this setup, which is that for parsed
script commands, it should be possible to change an option value, or add
a new option value that wasn't originally specified, then ask lldb "make
this back into a command string". That would make doing fancy things
with repeat commands easier.

That capability isn't present in the lldb_private side either, however.
So that's for a next iteration.

I haven't added this to the docs on adding commands yet. I wanted to
make sure this was an acceptable approach before I spend the time to do
that.

[lldb] Don't rely on ScriptInterpreterPythonImpl::Initialize in the unit tests (#82096)
The unit tests only test the Python objects and don't actually use
anything from the LLDB module. That means that all the additional
complexity in ScriptInterpreterPythonImpl::Initialize is overkill.

By doing the initialization by hand, we avoid the annoying
ModuleNotFoundError.

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'lldb'

The error is the result of us stubbing out the SWIG (specifically
`PyInit__lldb`) because we cannot link against libLLDB from the unit
tests.

The downside of doing the initialization manually is that we do lose a
bit of test coverage. For example, issue #70453 also manifested itself
in the unit tests.

Use a Python Bytes and ByteArray object instead of Integers for
TestOwnedReferences and TestBorrowedReferences. These two tests were
failing when building against Python 3.12 because these Integer objects

the Python runtime has adopted an optimization to decrease refcounting

Add the ability to define a Python based command that uses CommandObjectParsed (#70734)
This allows you to specify options and arguments and their definitions
and then have lldb handle the completions, help, etc. in the same way
that lldb does for its parsed commands internally.

This feature has some design considerations as well as the code, so I've
also set up an RFC, but I did this one first and will put the RFC
address in here once I've pushed it...

Note, the lldb "ParsedCommand interface" doesn't actually do all the
work that it should. For instance, saying the type of an option that has
a completer doesn't automatically hook up the completer, and ditto for
argument values. We also do almost no work to verify that the arguments
match their definition, or do auto-completion for them. This patch
allows you to make a command that's bug-for-bug compatible with built-in
ones, but I didn't want to stall it on getting the auto-command checking
to work all the way correctly.

As an overall design note, my primary goal here was to make an interface
that worked well in the script language. For that I needed, for
instance, to have a property-based way to get all the option values that
were specified. It was much more convenient to do that by making a
fairly bare-bones C interface to define the options and arguments of a
command, and set their values, and then wrap that in a Python class
(installed along with the other bits of the lldb python module) which
you can then derive from to make your new command. This approach will
also make it easier to experiment.

See the file test_commands.py in the test case for examples of how this
works.

0a21144614 [lldb] Check for abstract methods implementation in Scripted Plugin Objects (#71260)
This patch enforces that every scripted object implements all the
necessary abstract methods.

Every scripted affordance language interface can implement a list of
abstract methods name that checked when the object is instanciated.

Since some scripting affordances implementations can be derived from
template base classes, we can't check the object dictionary since it
will contain the definition of the base class, so instead, this checks
the scripting class dictionary.

Previously, for the various python interfaces, we used
`ABC.abstractmethod` decorators but this is too language specific and
doesn't work for scripting affordances that are not derived from
template base classes (i.e OperatingSystem, ScriptedThreadPlan, ...), so
this patch provides generic/language-agnostic checks for every scripted
affordance.

27b6a4e63a [lldb] Mark most SBAPI methods involving private types as protected or private
Many SB classes have public constructors or methods involving types that
are private. Some are more obvious (e.g. containing lldb_private in the
name) than others (lldb::FooSP is usually std::shared_pointer<lldb_private::Foo>).

This commit explicitly does not address FileSP, so I'm leaving that one
alone for now.

Some of these were for other SB classes to use and should have been made
protected/private with a friend class entry added. Some of these were
public for some of the swig python helpers to use. I put all of those
functions into a class and made them static methods. The relevant SB
classes mark that class as a friend so they can access those
private/protected members.

I've also removed an outdated SBStructuredData test (can you guess which
constructor it was using?) and updated the other relevant tests.

e31d0c20e4 [lldb] Improve breakpoint management for interactive scripted process
This patch improves breakpoint management when doing interactive
scripted process debugging.

In other to know which process set a breakpoint, we need to do some book
keeping on the multiplexer scripted process. When initializing the
multiplexer, we will first copy breakpoints that are already set on the
driving target.

Everytime we launch or resume, we should copy breakpoints from the
multiplexer to the driving process.

When creating a breakpoint from a child process, it needs to be set both
on the multiplexer and on the driving process. We also tag the created
breakpoint with the name and pid of the originator process.

This patch also implements all the requirement to achieve proper
breakpoint management. That involves:

- Adding python interator for breakpoints and watchpoints in SBTarget
- Add a new `ScriptedProcess.create_breakpoint` python method

This patch adds process attach capabilities to the ScriptedProcess
plugin. This doesn't really expects a PID or process name, since the
process state is already script, however, this allows to create a

In order to do so, this patch also turns the scripted process related
getters and setters from the `ProcessLaunchInfo` and
`ProcessAttachInfo` classes to a `ScriptedMetadata` instance and moves
it in the `ProcessInfo` class, so it can be accessed interchangeably.

This also adds the necessary SWIG wrappers to convert the internal
`Process{Attach,Launch}InfoSP` into a `SB{Attach,Launch}Info` to pass it
as argument the scripted process python implementation and convert it
back to the internal representation.

d2a6114f27 [lldb/unittests] Use std::nullopt instead of None (NFC)
This patch mechanically replaces None with std::nullopt where the
compiler would warn if None were deprecated.  The intent is to reduce
the amount of manual work required in migrating from Optional to
std::optional.

This is part of an effort to migrate from llvm::Optional to
std::optional:

7e01924e4e [lldb/Plugins] Improve error reporting with reading memory in Scripted Process
This patch improves the ScriptedPythonInterface::Dispatch method to
support passing lldb_private types to the python implementation.

This will allow, for instance, the Scripted Process python implementation
to report errors when reading memory back to lldb.

To do so, the Dispatch method will transform the private types in the
parameter pack into `PythonObject`s to be able to pass them down to the
python methods.

Then, if the call succeeded, the transformed arguments will be converted
back to their original type and re-assigned in the parameter pack, to
ensure pointers and references behaviours are preserved.

This patch also updates various scripted process python class and tests
to reflect this change.

d76566417e [lldb] Add matching based on Python callbacks for data formatters.
This patch adds a new matching method for data formatters, in addition
to the existing exact typename and regex-based matching. The new method
allows users to specify the name of a Python callback function that
takes a `SBType` object and decides whether the type is a match or not.

Here is an overview of the changes performed:

- Add a new `eFormatterMatchCallback` matching type, and logic to handle
  it in `TypeMatcher` and `SBTypeNameSpecifier`.

- Extend `FormattersMatchCandidate` instances with a pointer to the
  current `ScriptInterpreter` and the `TypeImpl` corresponding to the
  candidate type, so we can run registered callbacks and pass the type
  to them. All matcher search functions now receive a
  `FormattersMatchCandidate` instead of a type name.

- Add some glue code to ScriptInterpreterPython and the SWIG bindings to
  allow calling a formatter matching callback. Most of this code is
  modeled after the equivalent code for watchpoint callback functions.

- Add an API test for the new callback-based matching feature.

For more context, please check the RFC thread where this feature was
originally discussed:

Remove Python 2 support from the ScriptInterpreter plugin
We dropped downstream support for Python 2 in the previous release. Now
that we have branched for the next release the window where this kind of
change could introduce conflicts is closing too. Start by getting rid of
Python 2 support in the Script Interpreter plugin.

c154f397ee [lldb/python] Use PythonObject in LLDBSwigPython functions
Return our PythonObject wrappers instead of raw PyObjects (obfuscated as
void *). This ensures that ownership (reference counts) of python
objects is automatically tracked.

7406d236d8 [lldb/python] Fix (some) dangling pointers in our glue code
This starts to fix the other half of the lifetime problems in this code
-- dangling references. SB objects created on the stack will go away
when the function returns, which is a problem if the python code they
were meant for stashes a reference to them somewhere.  Most of the time
this goes by unnoticed, as the code rarely has a reason to store these,
but in case it does, we shouldn't respond by crashing.

This patch fixes the management for a couple of SB objects (Debugger,
Frame, Thread). The SB objects are now created on the heap, and
their ownership is immediately passed on to SWIG, which will ensure they
are destroyed when the last python reference goes away. I will handle
the other objects in separate patches.

I include one test which demonstrates the lifetime issue for SBDebugger.
Strictly speaking, one should create a test case for each of these
objects and each of the contexts they are being used. That would require
figuring out how to persist (and later access) each of these objects.
Some of those may involve a lot of hoop-jumping (we can run python code
from within a frame-format string). I don't think that is
necessary/worth it since the new wrapper functions make it very hard to
get this wrong.
