The main motivation for this was the inconsistency in handling of
partial reads/writes between the windows and posix implementations
(windows was returning partial reads, posix was trying to fill the
buffer completely). I settle on the windows implementation, as that's
the more common behavior, and the "eager" version can be implemented on
top of that (in most cases, it isn't necessary, since we're writing just
a single byte).
Since this also required auditing the callers to make sure they're
handling partial reads/writes correctly, I used the opportunity to
modernize the function signatures as a forcing function. They now use
the `Timeout` class (basically an `optional<duration>`) to support both
polls (timeout=0) and blocking (timeout=nullopt) operations in a single
function, and use an `Expected` instead of a by-ref result to return the
number of bytes read/written.
As a drive-by, I also fix a problem with the windows implementation
where we were rounding the timeout value down, which meant that calls
could time out slightly sooner than expected.
Make StreamAsynchronousIO an unique_ptr instead of a shared_ptr. I tried
passing the class by value, but the llvm::raw_ostream forwarder stored
in the Stream parent class isn't movable and I don't think it's worth
changing that. Additionally, there's a few places that expect a
StreamSP, which are easily created from a StreamUP.
Remove Debugger::GetOutputStream and Debugger::GetErrorStream in
preparation for replacing both with a new variant that needs to be
locked and hence can't be handed out like we do right now.
The patch replaces most uses with GetAsyncOutputStream and
GetAsyncErrorStream respectively. There methods return new StreamSP
objects that automatically get flushed on destruction.
See #126630 for more details.
I encountered a `qMemoryRegionInfo not supported` error when capturing a
Minidump. This was surprising, and I started looking around I found
@jasonmolenda's fix in #115963 and then realized I was not validated
anything from the custom ranges.
This reverts commit a774de807e56c1147d4630bfec3110c11d41776e.
This is the same changes as last time, plus:
* We load the binary into the target object so that on Windows, we can
resolve the locations of the functions.
* We now assert that each required breakpoint has at least 1 location,
to prevent an issue like that in the future.
* We are less strict about the unsupported error message, because it
prints "error: windows" on Windows instead of "error: gdb-remote".

Reverting while I reproduce locally.
This reverts commit 22561cfb443267905d4190f0e2a738e6b412457f and fixes
b7b9ccf44988edf49886743ae5c3cf4184db211f (#112079).
The problem is that x86_64 and Arm 32-bit have memory regions above the
stack that are readable but not writeable. First Arm:
```
(lldb) memory region --all
<...>
[0x00000000fffcf000-0x00000000ffff0000) rw- [stack]
[0x00000000ffff0000-0x00000000ffff1000) r-x [vectors]
[0x00000000ffff1000-0xffffffffffffffff) ---
```
Then x86_64:
```
$ cat /proc/self/maps
<...>
7ffdcd148000-7ffdcd16a000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7ffdcd193000-7ffdcd196000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar]
7ffdcd196000-7ffdcd197000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff601000 --xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vsyscall]
```
Compare this to AArch64 where the test did pass:
```
$ cat /proc/self/maps
<...>
ffffb87dc000-ffffb87dd000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar]
ffffb87dd000-ffffb87de000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
ffffb87de000-ffffb87e0000 r--p 0002a000 00:3c 76927217 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-aarch64.so.1
ffffb87e0000-ffffb87e2000 rw-p 0002c000 00:3c 76927217 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-aarch64.so.1
fffff4216000-fffff4237000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
```
To solve this, look up the memory region of the stack pointer (using
https://lldb.llvm.org/resources/lldbgdbremote.html#qmemoryregioninfo-addr)
and constrain the read to within that region. Since we know the stack is
all readable and writeable.
I have also added skipIfRemote to the tests, since getting them working
in that context is too complex to be worth it.
Memory write failures now display the range they tried to write, and
register write errors will show the name of the register where possible.
The patch also includes a workaround for a an issue where the test code
could mistake an `x` response that happens to begin with an `O` for an
output packet (stdout). This workaround will not be necessary one we
start using the [new
implementation](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-fixing-incompatibilties-of-the-x-packet-w-r-t-gdb/84288)
of the `x` packet.

This commit adds support for a
`SBProcess::ContinueInDirection()` API. A user-accessible command for
this will follow in a later commit.
This feature depends on a gdbserver implementation (e.g. `rr`) providing
support for the `bc` and `bs` packets. `lldb-server` does not support
those packets, and there is no plan to change that. For testing
purposes, this commit adds a Python implementation of *very limited*
record-and-reverse-execute functionality, implemented as a proxy between
lldb and lldb-server in `lldbreverse.py`. This should not (and in
practice cannot) be used for anything except testing.
The tests here are quite minimal but we test that simple breakpoints and
watchpoints work as expected during reverse execution, and that
conditional breakpoints and watchpoints work when the condition calls a
function that must be executed in the forward direction.
Currently, an LLDB target option controls whether plugins report all
threads. However, it seems natural for this knowledge could come from
the plugin itself. To support this, this commits adds a virtual method
to the plugin base class, making the Python OS query the target option
to preserve existing behavior.
ELF core debugging fix#117070 broke TestLoadUnload.py tests due to
GetModuleSpec call, ProcessGDBRemote fetches modules from remote. Revise
the original PR, renamed FindBuildId to FindModuleUUID.
A scripted process implementation might return an SBMemoryRegionInfo
object in its implementation of `get_memory_region_containing_address`
which will have an address 0 and size 0, without realizing the problems
this can cause. Several algorithms in lldb will try to iterate over the
MemoryRegions of the process, starting at address 0 and expecting to
iterate up to the highest vm address, stepping by the size of each
region, so a 0-length region will result in an infinite loop. Add a
check to Process::GetMemoryRegionInfo that rejects a MemoryRegion which
does not contain the requested address; a 0-length memory region will
therefor always be rejected.

Add the ability to override the disassembly CPU and CPU features through
a target setting (`target.disassembly-cpu` and
`target.disassembly-features`) and a `disassemble` command option
(`--cpu` and `--features`).
This is especially relevant for architectures like RISC-V which relies
heavily on CPU extensions.
The majority of this patch is plumbing the options through. I recommend
looking at DisassemblerLLVMC and the test for the observable change in
behavior.
Reverting this again; I added a commit which added @skipIfDarwin
markers to the TestReverseContinueBreakpoints.py and
TestReverseContinueNotSupported.py API tests, which use lldb-server
in gdbserver mode which does not work on Darwin. But the aarch64 ubuntu
bot reported a failure on TestReverseContinueBreakpoints.py,

This patch adds the support to `Process.cpp` to automatically save off
TLS sections, either via loading the memory region for the module, or
via reading `fs_base` via generic register. Then when Minidumps are
loaded, we now specify we want the dynamic loader to be the `POSIXDYLD`
so we can leverage the same TLS accessor code as `ProcessELFCore`. Being
able to access TLS Data is an important step for LLDB generated
minidumps to have feature parity with ELF Core dumps.

Recently in #107731 this change was revereted due to excess memory size
in `TestSkinnyCore`. This was due to a bug where a range's end was being
passed as size. Creating massive memory ranges.
Additionally, and requiring additional review, I added more unit tests
and more verbose logic to the merging of save core memory regions.
@jasonmolenda as an FYI.
Reapplies #106293, testing identified issue in the merging code. I used
this opportunity to strip CoreFileMemoryRanges to it's own file and then
add unit tests on it's behavior.
This patch fixes an issue where the `memory find` command would
effectively stop searching after encountering a memory read error (which
could happen due to unreadable memory), without giving any indication
that it has done so (it would just print it could not find the pattern).
To make matters worse, it would not terminate after encountering this
error, but rather proceed to slowly increment the address pointer, which
meant that searching a large region could take a very long time (and
give the appearance that lldb is actually searching for the thing).
The patch fixes this first problem by detecting read errors and
skipping over (using GetMemoryRegionInfo) the unreadable parts of memory
and resuming the search after them. It also reads the memory in bulk
(`max(sizeof(pattern))`), which speeds up the search significantly (up
to 6x for live processes, 18x for core files).
This patch removes all of the Set.* methods from Status.
This cleanup is part of a series of patches that make it harder use the
anti-pattern of keeping a long-lives Status object around and updating
it while dropping any errors it contains on the floor.
This patch is largely NFC, the more interesting next steps this enables
is to:
1. remove Status.Clear()
2. assert that Status::operator=() never overwrites an error
3. remove Status::operator=()
Note that step (2) will bring 90% of the benefits for users, and step
(3) will dramatically clean up the error handling code in various
places. In the end my goal is to convert all APIs that are of the form
` ResultTy DoFoo(Status& error)
`
to
` llvm::Expected<ResultTy> DoFoo()
`
How to read this patch?
The interesting changes are in Status.h and Status.cpp, all other
changes are mostly
` perl -pi -e 's/\.SetErrorString/ = Status::FromErrorString/g' $(git
grep -l SetErrorString lldb/source)
`
plus the occasional manual cleanup.
This patch adds the option to specify specific memory ranges to be
included in a given core file. The current implementation lets user
specified ranges either be in addition to a certain save style, or
independent of them via the newly added custom enum.
To achieve being inclusive of save style, I've moved from a std::vector
of ranges to a RangeDataVector, and to join overlapping ranges to
prevent duplication of memory ranges in the core file.
As a non function bonus, when SBSavecore was initially created, the
header was included in the lldb-private interfaces, and I've fixed that
and moved it the forward declare as an oversight. CC @bulbazord in case
we need to include that into swift.
Compilers and language runtimes often use helper functions that are
fundamentally uninteresting when debugging anything but the
compiler/runtime itself. This patch introduces a user-extensible
mechanism that allows for these frames to be hidden from backtraces and
automatically skipped over when navigating the stack with `up` and
`down`.
This does not affect the numbering of frames, so `f <N>` will still
provide access to the hidden frames. The `bt` output will also print a
hint that frames have been hidden.
My primary motivation for this feature is to hide thunks in the Swift
programming language, but I'm including an example recognizer for
`std::function::operator()` that I wished for myself many times while
debugging LLDB.
rdar://126629381
Example output. (Yes, my proof-of-concept recognizer could hide even
more frames if we had a method that returned the function name without
the return type or I used something that isn't based off regex, but it's
really only meant as an example).

Reapply #100443 and #101770. These were originally reverted due to a
test failure and an MSAN failure. I changed the test attribute to
restrict to x86 (following the other existing tests). I could not
reproduce the test or the MSAN failure and no repo steps were provided.
This PR introduces a new `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout` that will be
used to address potential deadlock during single-thread stepping.
While debugging a target with a non-trivial number of threads (around
5000 threads in one example target), we noticed that a simple step over
can take as long as 10 seconds. Enabling single-thread stepping mode
significantly reduces the stepping time to around 3 seconds. However,
this can introduce deadlock if we try to step over a method that depends
on other threads to release a lock.
To address this issue, we introduce a new
`ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout` that can be controlled by the
`target.process.thread.single-thread-plan-timeout` setting during
single-thread stepping mode. The concept involves counting the elapsed
time since the last internal stop to detect overall stepping progress.
Once a timeout occurs, we assume the target is not making progress due
to a potential deadlock, as mentioned above. We then send a new async
interrupt, resume all threads, and `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout`
completes its task.
To support this design, the major changes made in this PR are:
1. `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout` is popped during every internal stop
and reset (re-pushed) to the top of the stack (as a leaf node) during
resume. This is achieved by always returning `true` from
`ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout::DoPlanExplainsStop()` and
`ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout::MischiefManaged()`.
2. A new thread-specific async interrupt stop is introduced, which can
be detected/consumed by `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout`.
3. The clearing of branch breakpoints in the range thread plan has been
moved from `DoPlanExplainsStop()` to `ShouldStop()`, as it is not
guaranteed that it will be called.
The detailed design is discussed in the RFC below:

In #98403 I enabled the SBSaveCoreOptions object, which allows users via
the scripting API to define what they want saved into their core file.
As the first option I've added a threadlist, so users can scan and
identify which threads and corresponding stacks they want to save.
In order to support this, I had to add a new method to `Process.h` on
how we identify which threads are to be saved, and I had to change the
book keeping in minidump to ensure we don't double save the stacks.
Important to @jasonmolenda I also changed the MachO coredump to accept
these new APIs.
This is used by various system routines (the capabilities checker and
dyld to name a few) to add extra color to an abort. This patch adds a
frame recognizer so people can easily see the details, and also adds the
information to the ExtendedCrashInformation dictionary.
I also had to rework how the dictionary is held; previously it was
created on demand, but that was inconvenient since it meant all the
entries had to be produced at that same time. That didn't work for the
recognizer.
When doing firmware/kernel debugging, it is frequent that binaries and
debug info need to be retrieved / downloaded, and the lack of progress
reports made for a poor experience, with lldb seemingly hung while
downloading things over the network. This PR adds progress reports to
the critical sites for these use cases.
This patch adds a frame recognizer for Clang's
`__builtin_verbose_trap`, which behaves like a
`__builtin_trap`, but emits a failure-reason string into debug-info in
order for debuggers to display
it to a user.
The frame recognizer triggers when we encounter
a frame with a function name that begins with
`__clang_trap_msg`, which is the magic prefix
Clang emits into debug-info for verbose traps.
Once such frame is encountered we display the
frame function name as the `Stop Reason` and display that frame to the
user.
Example output:
```

This fixes a bug where Process events were being delivered to secondary
listeners when the Private state thread listener was processing the
event. That meant the secondary listener could get an event before the
Primary listener did. That in turn meant the state when the secondary
listener got the event wasn't right yet. Plus it meant that the
secondary listener saw more events than the primary (not all events get
forwarded from the private to the public Process listener.)
This bug became much more evident when we had a stop hook that did some
work, since that delays the Primary listener event delivery. So I also
added a stop-hook to the test, and put a little delay in as well.
ThreadList uses the Process mutex to guard its state. This means its not
possible to safely modify its process member, as the member is required
to lock the mutex.
Fortunately for us, we never actually need to change the process member
(we always just juggle different kinds of thread lists belonging to the
same process).
This patch replaces the process member assignment (which is technically
a race even when it assigns the same value) with an assertion.
Since all this means that the class can never change its process member
value (and it also must be non-null at all times), I've also changed the
member type to a reference.
While looking at a TSAN report (patch coming soon) in the ThreadList
class, I noticed that this code would be simpler if it did not use the
ThreadList class.
This is a second attempt to land #95007
