This patch addresses the issue #129543.
After this patch DWARFExpression does not call DWARFUnit directly and does not depend on
lldb/source/Plugins/SymbolFile/DWARF/DWARFASTParserClang.cpp and a lot of clang code.
After this patch the size of lldb-server binary (Linux Aarch64) is reduced from 47MB to 17MB.
The `TestMemoryHistory.py`/`TestReportData.py` are currently failing on
the x86 macOS CI (started after we upgraded the Xcode SDK on that
machien). The LLDB ASAN utility expression is failing to run with
following error:
```

warning: cannot evaluate AddressSanitizer expression:

The process has been returned to the state before expression evaluation.
```
The reason for this is that the system sanitizer dylib and the locally
built libclang_rt contain the same symbol `__asan_get_alloc_stack`, and
depending on the order in which they're loaded, we may pick the one from
the wrong dylib (this probably changed during the buildbot upgrade and
is why it only now started failing). Based on discussion with @wrotki we
always want to pick the one that's in the libclang_rt dylib if it was
loaded, and libsystem_sanitizers otherwise.
This patch addresses this by adding a "preferred lookup context list" to
the expression evaluator. Currently this is only exposed in the
`EvaluateExpressionOptions`. We make it a `SymbolContextList` in case we
want the lookup contexts to be contexts other than modules (e.g., source
files, etc.). In `IRExecutionUnit` we make it a `ModuleList` because it
makes the symbol lookup implementation simpler and we only do module
lookups here anyway. If we ever need it to be a `SymbolContext`, that
transformation shouldn't be too difficult.
This patch pushes the error handling boundary for the GetBitSize()
methods from Runtime into the Type and CompilerType APIs. This makes it
easier to diagnose problems thanks to more meaningful error messages
being available. GetBitSize() is often the first thing LLDB asks about a
type, so this method is particularly important for a better user
experience.

This patch improves the synchronization of the debugger's output and error
streams using two new abstractions: `LockableStreamFile` and
`LockedStreamFile`.
- `LockableStreamFile` is a wrapper around a `StreamFile` and a mutex. Client
cannot use the `StreamFile` without calling `Lock`, which returns a
`LockedStreamFile`.
- `LockedStreamFile` is an RAII object that locks the stream for the duration
of its existence. As long as you hold on to the returned object you are
permitted to write to the stream. The destruction of the object
automatically flush the output stream.
The improved error reporting in #120162 revealed that we were missing
opcodes in GetOpcodeDataSize. I changed the function to remove the
default case and switch over the enum type which will cause the compiler
to emit a warning if there are unhandled operations in the future.

This patch rewords some of the user expression diagnostics.
- Differentiate between being interrupted and hitting a breakpoint.
- Use "expression execution" to make it more obvious that the diagnostic
is associated with the user expression.
- Consistently use a colon instead of semicolons and commas.

Lots of code around LLDB was directly accessing the target's section
load list. This NFC patch makes the section load list private so the
Target class can access it, but everyone else now uses accessor
functions. This allows us to control the resolving of addresses and will
allow for functionality in LLDB which can lazily resolve addresses in
JIT plug-ins with a future patch.
Many calls to Function::GetAddressRange() were not interested in the
range itself. Instead they wanted to find the address of the function
(its entry point) or the base address for relocation of function-scoped
entities (technically, the two don't need to be the same, but there's
isn't good reason for them not to be). This PR creates a separate
function for retrieving this, and changes the existing
(non-controversial) uses to call that instead.
Expressions can take arbitrary amounts of time to run, so IDEs might
want to be informed about the fact that an expression is currently being
executed.

Prior to this patch, the function returned an exit status, sometimes a
ValueObject with an error and a Status object. This patch removes the
Status object and ensures the error is consistently returned as the
error of the ValueObject.
When parsing an optimized value and reading a piece from a file address,
LLDB tries to read the data from memory using that address.
This patch converts file address to load address before reading the
memory.
Fixes#111313Fixes#97484
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.
ValueObject is part of lldbCore for historical reasons, but conceptually
it deserves to be its own library. This does introduce a (link-time) circular
dependency between lldbCore and lldbValueObject, which is unfortunate
but probably unavoidable because so many things in LLDB rely on
ValueObject. We already have cycles and these libraries are never built
as dylibs so while this doesn't improve the situation, it also doesn't
make things worse.
The header includes were updated with the following command:
```
find . -type f -exec sed -i.bak "s%include \"lldb/Core/ValueObject%include \"lldb/ValueObject/ValueObject%" '{}' \;
```
This fixes all the places that hit the new assertion added in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/106524 in tests. That is,
cases where the value passed to the APInt constructor is not an N-bit
signed/unsigned integer, where N is the bit width and signedness is
determined by the isSigned flag.
The fixes either set the correct value for isSigned, set the
implicitTrunc flag, or perform more calculations inside APInt.
Note that the assertion is currently still disabled by default, so this
patch is mostly NFC.
This fixes the following assertion: "Cannot create Expected<T> from
Error success value." The problem was that GetFrameBaseValue return
false without updating the Status argument. This patch eliminates the
opportunity for mistakes by returning an llvm:Error.
When we search for a symbol, we first check if it is in the module_sp of
the current SymbolContext, and if not, we check in the target's modules.
However, the target's ModuleList also includes the already checked
module, which leads to a redundant search in it.
[lldb][RISCV] add jitted function calls to ABI
Function calls support in LLDB expressions for RISCV: 1 of 4
Augments corresponding functionality to RISCV ABI, which allows to jit
lldb expressions and thus make function calls inside them. Only function
calls with integer and void function arguments and return value are
supported.
[lldb][RISCV] add JIT relocations resolver
Function calls support in LLDB expressions for RISCV: 2 of 4
Adds required RISCV relocations resolving functionality in lldb
ExecutionEngine.
[lldb][RISCV] RISC-V large code model in lldb expressions
Function calls support in LLDB expressions for RISCV: 3 of 4
This patch sets large code model in MCJIT settings for RISC-V 64-bit targets
that allows to make assembly jumps at any 64bit address. This is needed,
because resulted jitted code may contain more that +-2GB jumps, that are
not available in RISC-V with medium code model.
[lldb][RISCV] doubles support in lldb expressions
Function calls support in LLDB expressions for RISCV: 4 of 4
This patch adds desired feature flags in MCJIT compiler to enable
hard-float instructions if target supports them and allows to use floats
and doubles in lldb expressions.
This patch is a reworking of Pete Lawrence's (@PortalPete) proposal
for better expression evaluator error messages:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/80938
Before:
```
$ lldb -o "expr a+b"
(lldb) expr a+b
error: <user expression 0>:1:1: use of undeclared identifier 'a'
a+b
^
error: <user expression 0>:1:3: use of undeclared identifier 'b'
a+b
^
```
After:
```
(lldb) expr a+b
^ ^
│ ╰─ error: use of undeclared identifier 'b'
╰─ error: use of undeclared identifier 'a'
```
This eliminates the confusing `<user expression 0>:1:3` source
location and avoids echoing the expression to the console again, which
results in a cleaner presentation that makes it easier to grasp what's
going on. You can't see it here, bug the word "error" is now also in
color, if so desired.
Depends on https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/106442.

…NFC]
This patch is the first patch in a series reworking of Pete Lawrence's
(@PortalPete) amazing proposal for better expression evaluator error
messages (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/80938)
This patch is preparatory patch for improving the rendering of
expression evaluator diagnostics. Currently diagnostics are rendered
into a string and the command interpreter layer then textually parses
words like "error:" to (sometimes) color the output accordingly. In
order to enable user interfaces to do better with diagnostics, we need
to store them in a machine-readable fromat. This patch does this by
adding a new llvm::Error kind wrapping a DiagnosticDetail struct that
is used when the error type is eErrorTypeExpression. Multiple
diagnostics are modeled using llvm::ErrorList.
Right now the extra information is not used by the CommandInterpreter,
this will be added in a follow-up patch!
As specified in the docs,
1) raw_string_ostream is always unbuffered and
2) the underlying buffer may be used directly
( 65b13610a5226b84889b923bae884ba395ad084d for further reference )
* Don't call raw_string_ostream::flush(), which is essentially a no-op.
* Avoid unneeded calls to raw_string_ostream::str(), to avoid excess
indirection.
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 PR is in reference to porting LLDB on AIX.
Link to discussions on llvm discourse and github:
1. https://discourse.llvm.org/t/port-lldb-to-ibm-aix/80640
2. #101657
The complete changes for porting are present in this draft PR:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/102601
The changes on this PR are intended to avoid namespace collision for
certain typedefs between lldb and other platforms:
1. tid_t --> lldb::tid_t
2. offset_t --> lldb::offset_t
The constructor initializes `*this` with a copy of `M->getDataLayout()`,
which can just be spelled as `DataLayout DL = M->getDataLayout()`. In
all places where the constructor is used, Module outlives DataLayout, so
store a reference to it instead of cloning.

When an inferior stub cannot allocate memory for lldb, and lldb needs to
store the result of expressions, it will do it in lldb's own memory
range ("host memory"). But it needs to find a virtual address range that
is not used in the inferior process. It tries to use the
qMemoryRegionInfo gdb remote serial protocol packet to find a range that
is inaccessible, starting at address 0 and moving up the size of each
region.
If the first region found at address 0 is inaccessible, lldb will use
the address range starting at 0 to mean "read lldb's host memory, not
the process memory", and programs that crash with a null dereference
will have poor behavior.
This patch skips consideration of a memory region that starts at address
0.
I also clarified the documentation of qMemoryRegionInfo to make it clear
that the stub is required to provide permissions for a memory range that
is accessable, it is not an optional key in this response. This issue
was originally found by a stub that did not list permissions in its
response, and lldb treated the first region returned as the one it would
use. (the stub also didn't support the memory-allocate packet)
This patch adds a new `DoPrepareForExecution` API, which can be
implemented by the Clang and Swift language plugins. This also moves
`RunStaticInitializers` into `ExpressionParser::PrepareForExecution`, so
we call it consistently between language plugins.
This *should* be mostly NFC (the static initializers will still only run
after we finished parsing). We've been living on this patch downstream
for sometime now.

This PR extends Dwarf.def to include the number of operands and the arity (the
number of entries on the DWARF stack).
- The arity is used in LLDB's DWARF expression evaluator.
- The number of operands is unused, but is present in the table to avoid
confusing the arity with the operands. Keeping the latter up to date should
be straightforward as it maps directly to a table present in the DWARF
standard.
This patch make all errors start with a lowercase letter and removes
trailing periods and newlines. This fixes inconsistencies between error
messages and facilitate concatenating them.
Change the signature of `DWARFExpression::Evaluate` and
`DWARFExpressionList::Evaluate` to return an `llvm::Expected` instead of a
boolean. This eliminates the `Status` output parameter and generally improves
error handling.
We received a bug report where someone was trying to print a global
variable without a process. This would succeed in a debug build but fail
in a on optimized build. We traced the issue back to the location being
described by a DW_OP_addr + DW_OP_piece.
The issue is that the DWARF expression evaluator only support reading
pieces from a load address. There's no reason it cannot do the same for
a file address, and indeed, that solves the problem.
I unsuccessfully tried to craft a test case to illustrate the original
example, using a global struct and trying to trick the compiler into
breaking it apart with SROA. Instead I wrote a unit test that uses a
mock target to read memory from.

If a weak function is missing, still return it's address (zero) rather
than failing interpretation. Otherwise we have a mismatch between
Interpret() and CanInterpret() resulting in failures that would not
occur with JIT execution.
Alternatively, we could try to look for weak symbols in CanInterpret()
and generally reject them there.
This is the root cause for the issue exposed by
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/92885. Previously, the case
affected by that always fell back to JIT because an icmp constant
expression was used, which is not supported by the interpreter. Now a
normal icmp instruction is used, which is supported. However, we fail to
interpret due to incorrect handling of weak function addresses.
that separates out language and version. To avoid reinventing the wheel
and introducing subtle incompatibilities, this API uses the table of
languages and versiond defined by the upcoming DWARF 6 standard
(https://dwarfstd.org/languages-v6.html). While the DWARF 6 spec is not
finialized, the list of languages is broadly considered stable.
The primary motivation for this is to allow the Swift language plugin to
switch between language dialects between, e.g., Swift 5.9 and 6.0 with
out introducing a ton of new language codes. On the main branch this
change is considered NFC.
Depends on https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/89980
This adds a hint to the missing symbols error message to make it easier
to understand what this means to users.
