Breakpoint deletion in visual studio is currently implemented by
iterating over the breakpoints we want to delete, for each of which we
iterate over the complete set of breakpoints in the debugger instance
until we find the one we wish to delete. Ideally we would resolve this
by directly deleting each breakpoint by some ID rather than searching
through the full breakpoint list for them, but in the absence of such a
feature in VS we can instead invert the loop to improve performance.
This patch changes breakpoint deletion to iterate over the complete list
of breakpoints, deleting breakpoints that match the breakpoints we
expect to delete by checking set membership. This represents a
worst-case improvement from O(nm) to O(n), for 'm' breakpoints being
deleted out of 'n' total. In practise this is almost exactly 'm'-times
faster, as when we delete multiple breakpoints they are typically
adjacent in the full breakpoint list.

Dexter saves various files to a new results directory each time it is run
(including when it's run by lit tests) and there isn't a way to opt-out. This
patch reconfigures the behaviour to be opt-in by removing the default
`--results-directory` location. Now results are only saved if
`--results-directory` is specified.

Not quite NFC because a little work was required to configure some tests to run
on Windows at all.
Before this patch on Windows:
$ llvm-lit cross-project-tests\debuginfo-tests\dexter\feature-tests
Unsupported: 49
Passed : 23
After this patch on Windows:
$ llvm-lit cross-project-tests\debuginfo-tests\dexter\feature-tests
Unsupported : 27
Passed : 39
Expectedly failed: 6
There are 3 main changes here. The first is to add a few more substitutions in
cross-project-tests/lit.cfg.py so that tests need to use specific flags can
still use the dexter regression test defaults for the native platform. These
are:
%dexter_regression_test_debugger
%dexter_regression_test_builder
%dexter_regression_test_cflags
%dexter_regression_test_ldflags
Tests that now use these options and therefore can be run on Windows too
(though the second is still failing for unknown reasons):
cross-project-tests/debuginfo-tests/dexte/feature_tests
/subtools/clang-opt-bisect/clang-opt-bisect.cpp
/subtools/test/source-root-dir.cpp
The second change is to remove spurious `REQUIRES: system-linux, lldb` and
`UNSUPPORTED: system-windows` directives, and make changes to lit.local.cfg
files that have the same effect. I've also added comments to the genuine
REQUIRES, UNSUPPORTED, and XFAIL directives so it's easier to understand
requirements at a glance. The most common reason for a test to not be supported
on Windows is that it uses DexLimitSteps, DexDeclareAddress, or DexCommandLine,
none of which are supported in the dbgeng driver.
There are two failures on Windows that were previously hidden, which I've
XFAILed:
cross-project-tests/debuginfo-tests/dexter/feature_tests
/commands/perfect/dex_finish_test/default_conditional.cpp
/commands/perfect/dex_finish_test/default_conditional_hit_count.cpp
And two that were easy to fix:
cross-project-tests/debuginfo-tests/dexter/feature_tests
/commands/perfect/dex_finish_test/default_simple.cpp
/commands/perfect/dex_finish_test/default_hit_count.cpp
Lastly, I've set three directories as unsupported.
cross-project-tests/debuginfo-tests/dexter/feature_tests
/commands/perfect/limit_steps
/commands/perfect/dex_declare_address
/commands/perfect/dex_declare_file
The first two are unsupported on Windows because they contains tests for the
DexLimitSteps and DexDeclareAddress commands which aren't supported in the
dbgeng driver. The third is unsupported on all platforms as the tests involve
invoking clang directly, which isn't currently a supported way of building
tests for dexter in lit (it can cause problems for cross compilers that can
target the host, as the tests use the default triple and linker, which may
be aligned for the default target, not host).

DexUnreachable is a useful tool for specifying that lines shouldn't be
stepped on. Right now they have to be placed in the source file; lets allow
them to be placed instead in a detached .dex file, by adding on_line and
line-range keyword arguments to the command.

This patch adds a "DexCommandLine" command, allowing dexter tests to
specify what command line options the test should be started with. I've
also plumbed it through into the debuggers.
This eases the matter of pointing Dexter at larger tests, or controlling
different paths through a single binary from a Dexter test.

These tests were spuriously failing on Windows due to path separators getting
flipped from `/` to `\\` in various parts of dexter:
test_add_breakpoint_with_source_root_dir
test_get_step_info
test_get_step_info_no_source_root_dir
Tested on Windows and Linux.

Fixes a failure on the llvm-clang-x86_64-sie-ubuntu-fast buildbot caused
by the test requiring lldb (with the standard dexter lit config), but
not including a "Requires: lldb" clause.
This patch adds a new dexter command, DexDeclareAddress, which is used
to test the relative values of pointer variables. The motivation for
adding this command is to allow meaningful assertions to be made about
pointers that go beyond checking variable availability and null
equality.
The full explanation and syntax is in Commands.md.

D109833 makes the flags `--builder` and `--binary` mutually exclusive, which
caused some regression tests to fail. Add a new substitution
`%dexter_regression_base` that doesn't include the `--builder`, `--cflags` or
`--ldflags` flags and use that for tests that use the `--binary` flag.

This patch adds a command, DexFinishTest, that allows a Dexter test to
be conditionally finished at a given breakpoint. This command has the
same set of arguments as DexLimitSteps, except that it does not allow a
line range (from_line, to_line), only a single line (on_line).

This patch allows a visual studio solution file to be passed directly
into Dexter, instead of using a pre-built binary and a small internal
solution file with template arguments. This is primarily to allow
launching an application that has specific launch configuration
requirements, without needing all the details of this configuration to
be built directly into Dexter or adding a config file that simply
duplicates existing settings in the VS solution.

Fixes issue found on greendragon buildbot, in which an incorrectly
indented statement following an if block led to entire frames being
dropped instead of simply filtering unneeded watches.
This reverts commit 1f44fa3ac17ceacc753019092bc50436c77ddcfa.
Dexter currently accepts two possible arguments to determine the binary
used for testing; either --builder <builder> (and optionally
compiler/linker flags) to build the binary, or --binary <binary> to use
the provided binary directly. If both are passed, then --binary
overrides --builder; if neither are passed, then an error is raised.
This patch instead puts these arguments into a required mutually
exclusive argument group, so that an error is automatically raised by
argparse if both or neither are given.
As an additional change, the --cflags and --ldflags will now raise a
warning if they are passed without the --builder flag, as they are
meaningless if Dexter is using a pre-built binary.

Currently, Dexter's model for fetching watch values is to build a list of
expressions to watch before running the debugger, then evaluating all of them at
each breakpoint, then finally looking up the values of these expressions at each
line they were expected on. When using dexter on a large project while watching
many different expressions, this is very slow, as Dexter will make a massive
number of calls made to the debugger's API, the vast majority of which are not
being used for anything. This patch fixes this issue by having Dexter only
evaluate expressions at a breakpoint when it will be used by a Dexter command.
