This commit only adds support for the
`SBProcess::ReverseContinue()` 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. So, for testing
purposes, `lldbreverse.py` wraps `lldb-server` with a Python
implementation of *very limited* record-and-replay functionality for use
by *tests only*.
The majority of this PR is test infrastructure (about 700 of the 950
lines added).
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.
Compilers and language runtimes often use helper functions that are
fundamentally uninteresting when debugging anything but the
compiler/runtime itself. This patch introduces a user-extensible
mechanism that allows for these frames to be hidden from backtraces and
automatically skipped over when navigating the stack with `up` and
`down`.
This does not affect the numbering of frames, so `f <N>` will still
provide access to the hidden frames. The `bt` output will also print a
hint that frames have been hidden.
My primary motivation for this feature is to hide thunks in the Swift
programming language, but I'm including an example recognizer for
`std::function::operator()` that I wished for myself many times while
debugging LLDB.
rdar://126629381
Example output. (Yes, my proof-of-concept recognizer could hide even
more frames if we had a method that returned the function name without
the return type or I used something that isn't based off regex, but it's
really only meant as an example).

This PR introduces a new `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout` that will be
used to address potential deadlock during single-thread stepping.
While debugging a target with a non-trivial number of threads (around
5000 threads in one example target), we noticed that a simple step over
can take as long as 10 seconds. Enabling single-thread stepping mode
significantly reduces the stepping time to around 3 seconds. However,
this can introduce deadlock if we try to step over a method that depends
on other threads to release a lock.
To address this issue, we introduce a new
`ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout` that can be controlled by the
`target.process.thread.single-thread-plan-timeout` setting during
single-thread stepping mode. The concept involves counting the elapsed
time since the last internal stop to detect overall stepping progress.
Once a timeout occurs, we assume the target is not making progress due
to a potential deadlock, as mentioned above. We then send a new async
interrupt, resume all threads, and `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout`
completes its task.
To support this design, the major changes made in this PR are:
1. `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout` is popped during every internal stop
and reset (re-pushed) to the top of the stack (as a leaf node) during
resume. This is achieved by always returning `true` from
`ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout::DoPlanExplainsStop()` and
`ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout::MischiefManaged()`.
2. A new thread-specific async interrupt stop is introduced, which can
be detected/consumed by `ThreadPlanSingleThreadTimeout`.
3. The clearing of branch breakpoints in the range thread plan has been
moved from `DoPlanExplainsStop()` to `ShouldStop()`, as it is not
guaranteed that it will be called.
The detailed design is discussed in the RFC below:

In #98403 I enabled the SBSaveCoreOptions object, which allows users via
the scripting API to define what they want saved into their core file.
As the first option I've added a threadlist, so users can scan and
identify which threads and corresponding stacks they want to save.
In order to support this, I had to add a new method to `Process.h` on
how we identify which threads are to be saved, and I had to change the
book keeping in minidump to ensure we don't double save the stacks.
Important to @jasonmolenda I also changed the MachO coredump to accept
these new APIs.
This was just a typo, none of the external execution control functions
should discard other plans. In particular, it means if you stop in a
hand-called function and step an instruction, the function call thread
plan gets unshipped, popping all the function call frames.
I also added a test that asserts the correct behavior. I tested all the
stepping operations even though only StepInstruction was wrong.
These are hardcoded strings that are already present in the data section
of the binary, no need to immediately place them in the ConstString
StringPools. Lots of code still calls `GetBroadcasterClass` and places
the return value into a ConstString. Changing that would be a good
follow-up.
Additionally, calls to these functions are still wrapped in ConstStrings
at the SBAPI layer. This is because we must guarantee the lifetime of
all strings handed out publicly.
This is another step towards supporting DWARF5 checksums and inline
source code in LLDB. This is a reland of #85468 but without the
functional change of storing the support file from the line table (yet).
This patch is rearranging code a bit to add WatchpointResources to
Process. A WatchpointResource is meant to represent a hardware
watchpoint register in the inferior process. It has an address, a size,
a type, and a list of Watchpoints that are using this
WatchpointResource.
This current patch doesn't add any of the features of
WatchpointResources that make them interesting -- a user asking to watch
a 24 byte object could watch this with three 8 byte WatchpointResources.
Or a Watchpoint on 1 byte at 0x1002 and a second watchpoint on 1 byte at
0x1003, these must both be served by a single WatchpointResource on that
doubleword at 0x1000 on a 64-bit target, if two hardware watchpoint
registers were used to track these separately, one of them may not be
hit. Or if you have one Watchpoint on a variable with a condition set,
and another Watchpoint on that same variable with a command defined or
different condition, or ignorecount, both of those Watchpoints need to
evaluate their criteria/commands when their WatchpointResource has been
hit.
There's a bit of code movement to rearrange things in the direction I'll
need for implementing this feature, so I want to start with reviewing &
landing this mostly NFC patch and we can focus on the algorithmic
choices about how WatchpointResources are shared and handled as they're
triggeed, separately.
This patch also stops printing "Watchpoint <n> hit: old value: <x>, new
vlaue: <y>" for Read watchpoints. I could make an argument for print
"Watchpoint <n> hit: current value <x>" but the current output doesn't
make any sense, and the user can print the value if they are
particularly interested. Read watchpoints are used primarily to
understand what code is reading a variable.
This patch adds more fallbacks for how to print the objects being
watched if we have types, instead of assuming they are all integral
values, so a struct will print its elements. As large watchpoints are
added, we'll be doing a lot more of those.
To track the WatchpointSP in the WatchpointResources, I changed the
internal API which took a WatchpointSP and devolved it to a Watchpoint*,
which meant touching several different Process files. I removed the
watchpoint code in ProcessKDP which only reported that watchpoints
aren't supported, the base class does that already.
I haven't yet changed how we receive a watchpoint to identify the
WatchpointResource responsible for the trigger, and identify all
Watchpoints that are using this Resource to evaluate their conditions
etc. This is the same work that a BreakpointSite needs to do when it has
been tiggered, where multiple Breakpoints may be at the same address.
There is not yet any printing of the Resources that a Watchpoint is
implemented in terms of ("watchpoint list", or
SBWatchpoint::GetDescription).
"watchpoint set var" and "watchpoint set expression" take a size
argument which was previously 1, 2, 4, or 8 (an enum). I've changed this
to an unsigned int. Most hardware implementations can only watch 1, 2,
4, 8 byte ranges, but with Resources we'll allow a user to ask for
different sized watchpoints and set them in hardware-expressble terms
soon.
I've annotated areas where I know there is work still needed with
LWP_TODO that I'll be working on once this is landed.
I've tested this on aarch64 macOS, aarch64 Linux, and Intel macOS.

Re-lands 04aa943be8 with modifications
to fix tests.
I originally reverted this because it caused a test to fail on Linux.
The problem was that I inverted a condition on accident.
There are many situations where we'll iterate over a SymbolContextList
with the pattern:
```
SymbolContextList sc_list;
// Fill in sc_list here
for (auto i = 0; i < sc_list.GetSize(); i++) {
SymbolContext sc;
sc_list.GetSymbolAtContext(i, sc);
// Do work with sc
}
```
Adding an iterator to iterate over the instances directly means we don't
have to do bounds checking or create a copy of every element of the
SymbolContextList.

This is a user facing action, it is meant to focus the user's attention on
something other than the 0th frame when you stop somewhere where that's
helpful. For instance, stopping in pthread_kill after an assert will select
the assert frame.
This is not something you want to have happen internally in lldb, both
because internally you really don't want the selected frame changing out
from under you, and because the recognizers can do arbitrary work, and that
can cause deadlocks or other unexpected behavior.
However, it's not something that the current code does
explicitly after a stop has been delivered, it's expected to happen implicitly
as part of stopping. I changing this to call SMRF explicitly after a user
stop, but that got pretty ugly quickly.
So I added a bool to control whether to run this and audited all the current
uses to determine whether we're returning to the user or not.

This implements the interactive trace start and stop methods.
This diff ended up being much larger than I anticipated because, by doing it, I found that I had implemented in the beginning many things in a non optimal way. In any case, the code is much better now.
There's a lot of boilerplate code due to the gdb-remote protocol, but the main changes are:
- New tracing packets: jLLDBTraceStop, jLLDBTraceStart, jLLDBTraceGetBinaryData. The gdb-remote packet definitions are quite comprehensive.
- Implementation of the "process trace start|stop" and "thread trace start|stop" commands.
- Implementaiton of an API in Trace.h to interact with live traces.
- Created an IntelPTDecoder for live threads, that use the debugger's stop id as checkpoint for its internal cache.
- Added a functionality to stop the process in case "process tracing" is enabled and a new thread can't traced.
- Added tests
I have some ideas to unify the code paths for post mortem and live threads, but I'll do that in another diff.

Several SB API functions return strings using (char*, size_t) output
arguments. During capture, we serialize an empty string for the char*
because the memory can be uninitialized.
During active replay, we have custom replay redirects that ensure that
we don't override the buffer from which we're reading, but rather write
to a buffer on the heap with the given length. This is sufficient for
the active reproducer use case, where we only care about the side
effects of the API calls, not the values actually returned.
This approach does not not work for passive replay because here we
ignore all the incoming arguments, and re-execute the current function
with the arguments deserialized from the reproducer. This means that
these function will update the deserialized copy of the arguments,
rather than whatever was passed in by the SWIG wrapper.
To solve this problem, this patch extends the reproducer instrumentation
to handle this special case for passive replay. We nog ignore the
replayer in the registry and the incoming char pointer, and instead
reinvoke the current method on the deserialized class, and populate the
output argument.
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D77759
Summary:
This gets rid of some nesting and of the raw char* variable that caused
the memory management bug we hit recently.
This commit also removes the fallback code which should trigger when
the StopInfo provides no stop description. All currently implemented
StopInfos have a `GetDescription()` method that shouldn't return an
empty description.

Refactore GetStopReasonExtendedBacktraces so that the reproducer macro
is passed an instrumented copy constructor rather than the constructor
taking a ThreadCollectionSP, which is not instrumented.
When a thread stops, this checks depending on the platform if the top frame is
an abort stack frame. If so, it looks for an assert stack frame in the upper
frames and set it as the most relavant frame when found.
To do so, the StackFrameRecognizer class holds a "Most Relevant Frame" and a
"cooked" stop reason description. When the thread is about to stop, it checks
if the current frame is recognized, and if so, it fetches the recognized frame's
attributes and applies them.

For the methods taking a char* and a length that have a custom replayer,
ignore the incoming string in the instrumentation macro. This prevents
potentially reading garbage and blowing up the SB API log.
Some SB API methods returns strings through a char* and a length. This
is a problem for the deserializer, which considers a single type at a
time, and therefore cannot know how many bytes to allocate for the
character buffer.
We can solve this problem by implementing a custom replayer, which
ignores the passed-in char* and allocates a buffer of the correct size
itself, before invoking the original API method or function.
This patch adds three new macros to register a custom replayer for
methods that take a char* and a size_t. It supports arbitrary return
values (some functions return a bool while others return a size_t).
