A problem that I introduced in the decoder is that I was considering TSC decoding
errors as actual instruction errors, which mean that the trace has a gap. This is
wrong because a TSC decoding error doesn't mean that there's a gap in the trace.
Instead, now I'm just counting how many of these errors happened and I'm using
the `dump info` command to check for this number.
Besides that, I refactored the decoder a little bit to make it simpler, more
readable, and to handle TSCs in a cleaner way.

Storing timestamps (TSCs) in a more efficient map at the decoded thread level to speed up TSC lookup, as well as reduce the amount of memory used by each decoded instruction. Also introduced TSC range which keeps the current timestamp valid for all subsequent instructions until the next timestamp is emitted.

Protecting against accidental overwriting of commands is good, but
having to pass a flag to overwrite the command when developing your

so you can do this once at the start of your session and not have to
worry about it again.

This recommits dddf4ce03, which was reverted because of a couple of test
failures on macos. The reason behind the failures was that the patch
inadvertenly changed the value returned by the host platform from
"macosx" to "darwin". The new version fixes that.
Original commit message was:
The decision which categories are relevant for a particular test run
happen very early in the test setup process. They use the SBPlatform
object to determine which categories should be skipped. The platform
object created for this purpose transcends individual test runs.
This setup is not compatible with the direction discussed in
<https://discourse.llvm.org/t/multiple-platforms-with-the-same-name/59594>
-- when platform objects are tied to a specific (SB)Debugger, they need
to be created alongside it, which currently happens in the test setUp
method.
This patch is the first step in that direction -- it rewrites the
category skipping logic to avoid depending on a global SBPlatform
object. Fortunately, the skipping logic is fairly simple (and I believe
it outght to stay that way) and mainly consists of comparing the
platform name against some hardcoded lists. This patch bases this
comparison on the platform name instead of the os part of the triple (as
reported by the platform).

This patch introduces 2 new lldb utility functions:
- lldbutil.start_listening_from: This can be called in the test setup to
create a listener and set it up for a specific event mask and add it
to the user-provided broadcaster's list.
- lldbutil.fetch_next_event: This will use fetch a single event from the
provided istener and return it if it matches the provided broadcaster.
The motivation behind this is to easily test new kinds of events
(i.e. Swift type-system progress events). However, this patch also
updates `TestProgressReporting.py` and `TestDiagnosticReporting.py`
to make use of these new helper functions.

Avoid "TERM environment variable not set" by either propagating the TERM

doing this explicitly through the --env dotest arg, but it's easy to

There's a bug caused when a process is relaunched: the target, which
doesn't change, keeps the Trace object from the previous process, which
is already defunct, and causes segmentation faults when it's attempted
to be used.
A fix is to clean up the Trace object when the target is disposing of
the previous process during relaunches.

On darwin, we don't completely suppress the signal used to interrupt the
inferior. The underlying read syscall returns EINTR, which causes premature
termination of the input loop.
Work around that by hand-rolling an EINTR-resistant version of getline.
D120762 accidentally moved the interrupt check into the block which was
reading stdio. This meant that a ^C only took effect after a regular
character has been pressed.
This patch fixes that and adds a (pexpect) test.

This patch is another attempt to fix platform selection on Apple
Silicon. It partially undoes D117340 which tried to fix the issue by
always instantiating a remote-ios platform for "iPhone and iPad Apps on
Apple Silicon Macs".
While the previous patch worked for attaching, it broke launching and
everything else that expects the remote platform to be connected. I made
an attempt to work around that, but quickly found out that there were
just too may places that had this assumption baked in.
This patch takes a different approach and reverts back to marking the
host platform compatible with iOS triples. This brings us back to the
original situation where platform selection was broken for remote iOS
debugging on Apple Silicon. To fix that, we now look at the process'
host architecture to differentiate between iOS binaries running remotely
and iOS binaries running locally.
I tested the following scenarios, which now all uses the desired
platform:
- Launching an iOS binary on macOS: uses the host platform
- Attaching to an iOS binary on macOS: uses the host platform
- Attaching to a remote iOS binary: uses the remote-ios platform

This patch moves the platform creation and selection logic into the
per-debugger platform lists. I've tried to keep functional changes to a
minimum -- the main (only) observable difference in this change is that
APIs, which select a platform by name (e.g.,
Debugger::SetCurrentPlatform) will not automatically pick up a platform
associated with another debugger (or no debugger at all).
I've also added several tests for this functionality -- one of the
pleasant consequences of the debugger isolation is that it is now
possible to test the platform selection and creation logic.
This is a product of the discussion at

Our SIGTSTP handler was working, but that was mostly accidental.
The reason it worked is because lldb is multithreaded for most of its
lifetime and the OS is reasonably fast at responding to signals. So,
what happened was that the kill(SIGTSTP) which we sent from inside the
handler was delivered to another thread while the handler was still set
to SIG_DFL (which then correctly put the entire process to sleep).
Sometimes it happened that the other thread got the second signal after
the first thread had already restored the handler, in which case the
signal handler would run again, and it would again attempt to send the
SIGTSTP signal back to itself.
Normally it didn't take many iterations for the signal to be delivered
quickly enough. However, if you were unlucky (or were playing around
with pexpect) you could get SIGTSTP while lldb was single-threaded, and
in that case, lldb would go into an endless loop because the second
SIGTSTP could only be handled on the main thread, and only after the
handler for the first signal returned (and re-installed itself). In that
situation the handler would keep re-sending the signal to itself.
This patch fixes the issue by implementing the handler the way it
supposed to be done:
- before sending the second SIGTSTP, we unblock the signal (it gets
automatically blocked upon entering the handler)
- we use raise to send the signal, which makes sure it gets delivered to
the thread which is running the handler
This also means we don't need the SIGCONT handler, as our TSTP handler
resumes right after the entire process is continued, and we can do the
required work there.
I also include a test case for the SIGTSTP flow. It uses pexpect, but it
includes a couple of extra twists. Specifically, I needed to create an
extra process on top of lldb, which will run lldb in a separate process
group and simulate the role of the shell. This is needed because SIGTSTP
is not effective on a session leader (the signal gets delivered, but it
does not cause a stop) -- normally there isn't anyone to notice the
stop.

This improves this test a lot because before when using the "attachCommands" to run the following commands:
(lldb) target create -d /path/to/a.out
(lldb) process launch
This was racy as it wasn't stopping the program at the entry point, and the process might run to completion before we can even debug it. With the recent changes to the "attachCommands" we were waiting for the process to stop, but the process might be exited already, and that _should_ have caused the attach to fail since there was no process to attach to. By adding "--stop-at-entry" to the process launch, we ensure this should be less racy and give us a valid process to attach to.
I'm a big fan of the autosuggestion feature but my terminal/color scheme

This patch introduces a new way to load modules programatically with
Scripted Processes. To do so, the scripted process blueprint holds a
list of dictionary describing the modules to load, which their path or
uuid, load address and eventually a slide offset.
LLDB will fetch that list after launching the ScriptedProcess, and
iterate over each entry to create the module that will be loaded in the
Scripted Process' target.
The patch also refactors the StackCoreScriptedProcess test to stop
inside the `libbaz` module and make sure it's loaded correctly and that
we can fetch some variables from it.

This is a modified version of a previous patch that was reverted: https://reviews.llvm.org/D119797
This version only waits for the process to stop when using "launchCommands" or "attachCommands"...
...and doesn't play with the async mode when doing normal launch/attach.
We discovered that when using "launchCommands" or "attachCommands" that there was an issue where these commands were not being run synchronously. There were further problems in this case where we would get thread events for the process that was just launched or attached before the IDE was ready, which is after "configurationDone" was sent to lldb-vscode.
This fix introduces the ability to wait for the process to stop after "launchCommands" or "attachCommands" are run to ensure that we have a stopped process point that is ready for the debug session to proceed. We spin up the thread that listens for process events before we start the launch or attach, but we don't want stop events being delivered through the DAP protocol until the "configurationDone" packet is received. We now always ignore the stop event with a stop ID of 1, which is the first stop. All normal launch and attach scenarios use the synchronous mode, and "launchCommands and "attachCommands" run an array of LLDB commands in async mode.
This should make our launch with "launchCommands" and attach with "attachCommands" avoid a race condition when the process is being launched or attached.

This reverts commit 6b3b3ef344504334f43afe76c805d2e6e7b587e9.
Jim Ingham informed me that the upper case is a hint to the option
name, like you might see in a menu to show you what the shortcut is.
The check for the prompt isn't essential for this test. The check fail
on the lldb-arm-ubuntu because of what appears to be a missing space
after the prompt. Rather than disabling the test, let's see if we can
get it to pass without it.
This patch fixes a data race in IOHandlerProcessSTDIO. The race is
happens between the main thread and the event handling thread. The main
thread is running the IOHandler (IOHandlerProcessSTDIO::Run()) when an
event comes in that makes us pop the process IO handler which involves
cancelling the IOHandler (IOHandlerProcessSTDIO::Cancel). The latter
calls SetIsDone(true) which modifies m_is_done. At the same time, we
have the main thread reading the variable through GetIsDone().
This patch avoids the race by using a mutex to synchronize the two
threads. On the event thread, in IOHandlerProcessSTDIO ::Cancel method,
we obtain the lock before changing the value of m_is_done. On the main
thread, in IOHandlerProcessSTDIO::Run(), we obtain the lock before
reading the value of m_is_done. Additionally, we delay calling SetIsDone
until after the loop exists, to avoid a potential race between the two
writes.
