I am using VSCode with the official vscode-lldb extension. When I try to
list the breakpoints in the debug console get the message:
```
br list
can't evaluate expressions when the process is running.
```
I know that this is wrong and you need to use
```
`br list
(lldb) br list
No breakpoints currently set.
```
but the error message is misleading. I cleaned up the code and now the
error message is
```
br list
sbframe object is not valid.
```
which is still not perfect, but at least it's not misleading.
Currently, configuring lldb with cmake with separated stdout and stderr
gives some unnecessary output in stderr which happens since message
statement is used without `[mode]` (See
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.31/command/message.html). This patch
adds mode `STATUS` instead of explicit `--` at the beginning of
messages.
There are a lot of lldb commands whose result is really one or more
ValueObjects that we then print with the ValueObjectPrinter. Now that we
have the ability to access the SBCommandReturnObject through a callback
(#125006), we can store the resultant ValueObjects in the return object,
allowing an IDE to access the SBValues and do its own rich formatting.

This makes GetOutputStreamSP and GetErrorStreamSP protected members of
Debugger. Users who want to print to the debugger's stream should use
GetAsyncOutputStreamSP and GetAsyncErrorStreamSP instead and the few
remaining stragglers have been migrated.
This patch adds support for template arguments of
`clang::TemplateArgument::ArgKind::StructuralValue` kind (added in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/78041). These are used for
non-type template parameters such as floating point constants. When LLDB
created `clang::NonTypeTemplateParmDecl`s, it previously assumed
integral values, this patch accounts for structural values too.
Anywhere LLDB assumed a `DW_TAG_template_value_parameter` was
`Integral`, it will now also check for `StructuralValue`, and will
unpack the `TemplateArgument` value and type accordingly.
We can rely on the fact that any `TemplateArgument` of `StructuralValue`
kind that the `DWARFASTParserClang` creates will have a valid value,
because it gets those from `DW_AT_const_value`.
This patch adds a new API to `SBType` to retrieve the value of a
template parameter given an index. We re-use the
`TypeSystemClang::GetIntegralTemplateArgument` for this and thus
currently only supports integral non-type template parameters. Types
like float/double are not supported yet.

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.
This typedef doesn't match the signature below, specifically the
signature takes a `lldb:SBDebugger` vs this was defined as
`lldb:SBDebugger&`.
```
lldb/source/API/SBDebugger.cpp:199:13: runtime error: call to function lldb::PluginInitialize(lldb::SBDebugger) through pointer to incorrect function type 'bool (*)(lldb::SBDebugger &)'
.../CustomPlugin.cpp:134: note: lldb::PluginInitialize(lldb::SBDebugger) defined here
```
The WatchAddress API includes a flag to indicate if watchpoint should be
for read, modify or both. This API uses 2 booleans, but the 'modify'
flag was ignored and WatchAddress unconditionally watched write
(actually modify).
We now only watch for modify when the modify flag is true.
---
The included test fails prior to this patch and succeeds after. That is
previously specifying `False` for `modify` would still stop on _write_,
but after the patch correctly only stops on _read_
Xcode uses a pseudoterminal for the debugger console.
- The upside of this apporach is that it means that it can rely on
LLDB's IOHandlers for multiline and script input.
- The downside of this approach is that the command output is printed to
the PTY and you don't get a SBCommandReturnObject. Adrian added support
for inline diagnostics (#110901) and we'd like to access those from the
IDE.
This patch adds support for registering a callback in the command
interpreter that gives access to the `(SB)CommandReturnObject` right
before it will be printed. The callback implementation can choose
whether it likes to handle printing the result or defer to lldb. If the
callback indicated it handled the result, the command interpreter will
skip printing the result.
We considered a few other alternatives to solve this problem:
- The most obvious one is using `HandleCommand`, which returns a
`SBCommandReturnObject`. The problem with this approach is the multiline
input mentioned above. We would need a way to tell the IDE that it
should expect multiline input, which isn't known until LLDB starts
handling the command.
- To address the multiline issue,we considered exposing (some of the)
IOHandler machinery through the SB API. To solve this particular issue,
that would require reimplementing a ton of logic that already exists
today in the CommandInterpeter. Furthermore that seems like overkill
compared to the proposed solution.
rdar://141254310
As suggested in #125006. Depending on which PR lands first, I'll update
`TestCommandInterepterPrintCallback.py` to check that the
`CommandReturnObject` passed to the callback has the correct command.
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".

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.

I wanted to clarify the semantics around SBProgress. Given the nature of
Progress events, copying seems like the wrong idea. Making SBProgress
move-only (like SBStream) seems like the better choice here.
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.
Recently I've been working on a lot of internal Python tooling, and in
certain cases I want to report async to the script over DAP. Progress.h
already handles this, so I've exposed Progress via the SB API so Python
scripts can also update progress objects.
I actually have no idea how to test this, so I just wrote a [toy command
to test
it](https://gist.github.com/Jlalond/48d85e75a91f7a137e3142e6a13d0947)
I also copied the first section of the extensive Progress.h class
documentation to the docstrings.
I think the only issue here was that we would erroneously consider
functions which are "in the middle" of the function were stepping to as
a part of the function, and would try to step into them (likely stepping
out of the function instead) instead of giving up early.
This patch adds the ability to get a thread at a give index, based on
insertion order, for SBSaveCore Options. This is primarily to benefit
scripts using SBSaveCore, and remove the need to have both options and a
second collection if your script is tracking what threads need to be
saved. Such as if you want to collect the source of all the threads to
be saved after the Core is generated.
The main change is to permit the disassembler class to process/store
multiple (discontinuous) ranges of addresses. The result is not
ambiguous because each instruction knows its size (in addition to its
address), so we can check for discontinuity by looking at whether the
next instruction begins where the previous ends.
This patch doesn't handle the "disassemble" CLI command, which uses a
more elaborate mechanism for disassembling and printing instructions.
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.
Building on top of previous work that exposed expression diagnostics via
SBCommandReturnObject, this patch generalizes the support to expose any
SBError as machine-readable structured data. One use-case of this is to
allow IDEs to better visualize expression diagnostics.

Currently, we arbitrarily paginate editline completions to 40 elements.
On large terminals, that leaves some real-estate unused. On small
terminals, it's pretty annoying to not see the first completions. We can
address both issues by using the terminal height for pagination.
This builds on the improvements of #116456.
Compared to the python version, this also does type checking and error
handling, so it's slightly longer, however, it's still comfortably
under 500 lines.

This reverts commit 2526d5b1689389da9b194b5ec2878cfb2f4aca93, reapplying
ba14dac481564000339ba22ab867617590184f4c after fixing the conflict with
#117532. The change is that Function::GetAddressRanges now recomputes
the returned value instead of returning the member. This means it now
returns a value instead of a reference type.
SBFunction::GetEndAddress doesn't really make sense for discontinuous
functions, so I'm declaring it deprecated. GetStartAddress sort of makes
sense, if one uses it to find the functions entry point, so I'm keeping
that undeprecated.
I've made the test a Shell tests because these make it easier to create
discontinuous functions regardless of the host os and architecture. They
do make testing the python API harder, but I think I've managed to come
up with something not entirely unreasonable.
The old behavior was to return a null string in the error case,when
refactoring the error handling I thought it would be a good idea to
print the error in the description, but that breaks clients that try to
print a description first and then do something else in the error case.
The API is not great but it's clear that in-band errors are also not a
good idea.

This is motivated by exposing some Swift language-specific flags through
the API, in the example here it is used to communicate the Objective-C
runtime version. This could also be a meaningful extension point to get
information about "embedded: languages, such as extracting the C++
version in an Objective-C++ frame or something along those lines.
"statistics dump" currently report the statistics of all targets in
debugger instead of current target. This is wrong because there is a
"statistics dump --all-targets" option that supposed to include
everything.
This PR fixes the issue by only report statistics for current target
instead of all. It also includes the change to reset statistics debug
info/symbol table parsing/indexing time during debugger destroy. This is
required so that we report current statistics if we plan to reuse
lldb/lldb-dap across debug sessions

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 allows IDEs to render LLDB expression diagnostics to their liking
without relying on characterprecise ASCII art from LLDB. It is exposed
as a versioned SBStructuredData object, since it is expected that this
may need to be tweaked based on actual usage.

Add an "always on" log category and channel. Unlike other, existing log
channels, it is not exposed to users. The channel is meant to be used
sparsely and deliberately for logging high-value information to the
system log.
We have a similar concept in the downstream Swift fork and this has
proven to be extremely valuable. This is especially true on macOS where
system log messages are automatically captured as part of a sysdiagnose.
