This uses [teyit](https://pypi.org/project/teyit/) to modernize asserts,
as recommended by the [unittest release
notes](https://docs.python.org/3.12/whatsnew/3.12.html#id3).
For example, `assertTrue(a == b)` is replaced with `assertEqual(a, b)`.
This produces better error messages, e.g. `error: unexpectedly found 1
and 2 to be different` instead of `error: False`.
assertEquals is a deprecated alias for assertEqual and has been removed
in Python 3.12. This wasn't an issue previously because we used a
vendored version of the unittest module. Now that we use the built-in
version this gets updated together with the Python version used to run
the test suite.
When generating a `display_value` for a variable the current approach
calls `SBValue::GetValue()` and `SBValue::GetSummary()` to generate a
`display_value` for the `SBValue`. However, there are cases where both
of these return an empty string and the fallback is to print a pointer
and type name instead (e.g. `FooBarType @ 0x00321`).
For swift types, lldb includes a langauge runtime plugin that can
generate a description of the object but this is only used with
`SBValue::GetDescription()`.
For example:
```
$ lldb swift-binary
... stop at breakpoint ...
lldb> script
>>> event = lldb.frame.GetValueForVariablePath("event")
>>> print("Value", event.GetValue())
Value None
>>> print("Summary", event.GetSummary())
Summary None
>>> print("Description", event) # __str__ calls SBValue::GetDescription()
Description (main.Event) event = (name = "Greetings", time = 2024-01-04 23:38:06 UTC)
```
With this change, if GetValue and GetSummary return empty then we try
`SBValue::GetDescription()` as a fallback before using the previous
logic of printing `<type> @ <addr>`.
In order to allow smarter vscode extensions, it's useful to send
additional structured information of SBValues to the client.
Specifically, I'm now sending error, summary, autoSummary and
inMemoryValue in addition to the existing properties being sent. This is
cheap because these properties have to be calculated anyway to generate
the display value of the variable, but they are now available for
extensions to better analyze variables. For example, if the error field
is not present, the extension might be able to provide cool features,
and the current way to do that is to look for the `"<error: "` prefix,
which is error-prone.
This also incorporates a tiny feedback from
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/74865#issuecomment-1850695477
This is an extension to the protocol that emits the declaration
information along with the metadata of each variable. This can be used
by vscode extensions to implement, for example, a "goToDefinition"
action in the debug tab, or for showing the value of a variable right
next to where it's declared during a debug session.
As this is cheap, I'm not gating this information under any setting.
This patch relands https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/70639
It was reverted because under certain conditions we triggered an
assertion
in `DIBuilder`. Specifically, in the original patch we called
`EmitGlobalVariable`
at the end of `CGDebugInfo::finalize`, after all the temporary `DIType`s
have
been uniqued. With limited debug-info such temporary nodes would be
created
more frequently, leaving us with non-uniqued nodes by the time we got to
`DIBuilder::finalize`; this violated its pre-condition and caused
assertions to trigger.
To fix this, the latest iteration of the patch moves
`EmitGlobalVariable` to the
beginning of `CGDebugInfo::finalize`. Now, when we create a temporary
`DIType` node as a result of emitting a variable definition, it will get
uniqued
in time. A test-case was added for this scenario.
We also now don't emit a linkage name for non-locationed constants since
LLDB doesn't make use of it anyway.
Original commit message:
"""
When an LLDB user asks for the value of a static data member, LLDB
starts
by searching the Names accelerator table for the corresponding variable
definition DIE. For static data members with out-of-class definitions
that
works fine, because those get represented as global variables with a
location
and making them eligible to be added to the Names table. However,
in-class
definitions won’t get indexed because we usually don't emit global
variables
for them. So in DWARF we end up with a single `DW_TAG_member` that
usually holds the constant initializer. But we don't get a corresponding
CU-level `DW_TAG_variable` like we do for out-of-class definitions.
To make it more convenient for debuggers to get to the value of inline
static data
members, this patch makes sure we emit definitions for static variables
with
constant initializers the same way we do for other static variables.
This also aligns
Clang closer to GCC, which produces CU-level definitions for inline
statics and also
emits these into `.debug_pubnames`.
The implementation keeps track of newly created static data members.
Then in `CGDebugInfo::finalize`, we emit a global `DW_TAG_variable` with
a
`DW_AT_const_value` for any of those declarations that didn't end up
with a
definition in the `DeclCache`.
The newly emitted `DW_TAG_variable` will look as follows:
```
0x0000007b: DW_TAG_structure_type
DW_AT_calling_convention (DW_CC_pass_by_value)
DW_AT_name ("Foo")
...
0x0000008d: DW_TAG_member
DW_AT_name ("i")
DW_AT_type (0x00000062 "const int")
DW_AT_external (true)
DW_AT_declaration (true)
DW_AT_const_value (4)

DW_AT_specification (0x0000008d "i")
DW_AT_const_value (4)
DW_AT_linkage_name ("_ZN2t2IiE1iIfEE")
```
This patch also drops the `DW_AT_const_value` off of the declaration
since we
now always have it on the definition. This ensures that the
`DWARFParallelLinker`
can type-merge class with static members where we couldn't attach the
constant
on the declaration in some CUs.

this clang patch for now.
