We have been working on reducing the packet count that is sent between LLDB and the debugserver on MacOSX and iOS. Our approach to this was to reduce the packets required when debugging multiple threads. We currently make one qThreadStopInfoXXXX call (where XXXX is the thread ID in hex) per thread except the thread that stopped with a stop reply packet. In order to implement multiple thread infos in a single reply, we need to use structured data, which means JSON. The new jThreadsInfo packet will attempt to retrieve all thread infos in a single packet. The data is very similar to the stop reply packets, but packaged in JSON and uses JSON arrays where applicable. The JSON output looks like:
[
{ "tid":1580681,
"metype":6,
"medata":[2,0],
"reason":"exception",
"qaddr":140735118423168,

It contains an array of dicitionaries with all of the key value pairs that are normally in the stop reply packet. Including the expedited registers. Notice that is also contains expedited memory in the "memory" key. Any values in this memory will get included in a new L1 cache in lldb_private::Process where if a memory read request is made and that memory request fits into one of the L1 memory cache blocks, it will use that memory data. If a memory request fails in the L1 cache, it will fall back to the L2 cache which is the same block sized caching we were using before these changes. This allows a process to expedite memory that you are likely to use and it reduces packet count. On MacOSX with debugserver, we expedite the frame pointer backchain for a thread (up to 256 entries) by reading 2 pointers worth of bytes at the frame pointer (for the previous FP and PC), and follow the backchain. Most backtraces on MacOSX and iOS now don't require us to read any memory!
We will try these packets out and if successful, we should port these to lldb-server in the near future.

Add some if/then to avoid calling a function to get dynamic/synthetic types if we know we aren't going to need to call it.
Avoid calling a function that returns a shared pointer twice: once for testing it and once for assigning it (even though that shared pointer is cached inside the value object), it just makes the code a bit clearer.

Summary:
This should solve the issue of sending denormalized paths over gdb-remote
if we stick to GetPath(false) in GDBRemoteCommunicationClient, and let the
server handle any denormalization.

Since interaction with the python interpreter is moving towards
being more isolated, we won't be able to include this header from
normal files anymore, all includes of it should be localized to
the python library which will live under source/bindings/API/Python
after a future patch.
None of the files that were including this header actually depended

lldb::addr_t SBFrame::GetCFA();
This gets the CFA (call frame address) of the frame so it allows us to take an address that is on the stack and figure out which thread it comes from.
Also modified the heap.py module to be able to find out which variable in a frame's stack frame contains an address. This way when ptr_refs finds a match on the stack, it get then report which variable contains the pointer.

expr_options = lldb.SBExpressionOptions()
expr_options.SetPrefix('''
struct Foo {
int a;
int b;
int c;
}
'''
expr_result = frame.EvaluateExpression ("Foo foo = { 1, 2, 3}; foo", expr_options)
This fixed a current issue with ptr_refs, cstr_refs and malloc_info so that they can work. If expressions define their own types and then return expression results that use those types, those types get copied into the target's AST context so they persist and the expression results can be still printed and used in future expressions. Code was added to the expression parser to copy the context in which types are defined if they are used as the expression results. So in the case of types defined by expressions, they get defined in a lldb_expr function and that function and _all_ of its statements get copied. Many types of statements are not supported in this copy (array subscript, lambdas, etc) so this causes expressions to fail as they can't copy the result types. To work around this issue I have added code that allows expressions to specify an expression specific prefix. Then when you evaluate the expression you can pass the "expr_options" and have types that can be correctly copied out into the target. I added this as a way to work around an issue, but I also think it is nice to be allowed to specify an expression prefix that can be reused by many expressions, so this feature is very useful.

This works for Python commands defined via a class (implement get_flags on your class) and C++ plugin commands (which can call SBCommand::GetFlags()/SetFlags())
Flags allow features such as not letting the command run if there's no target, or if the process is not stopped, ...
Commands could always check for these things themselves, but having these accessible via flags makes custom commands more consistent with built-in ones

the changes in r233255/r233258. Normally if lldb attaches to
a running process, when we call Process::Destroy, we want to detach
from the process. If lldb launched the process itself, ::Destroy
should kill it.
However, if we attach to a process and the driver calls SBProcess::Kill()
(which calls Destroy), we need to kill it even if we didn't launch it
originally.
The force_kill param allows for the SBProcess::Kill method to force the
behavior of Destroy.

In an effort to reduce binary size for components not wishing to
link against all of LLDB, as well as a parallel effort to reduce
link dependencies on Python, this patch splits out the notion of
LLDB initialization into "full" and "common" initialization.
All code related to initializing the full LLDB suite lives directly
in API now. Previously it was only referenced from API, but because
it was defined in lldbCore, it would get implicitly linked against
by everything including lldb-server, causing a considerable
increase in binary size.
By moving this to the API layer, it also creates a better layering
for the ongoing effort to make the embedded interpreter replacable
with one from a different language (or even be completely removeable).
One semantic change necessary to get this all working was to remove
the notion of a shared debugger refcount. The debugger is either
initialized or uninitialized now, and calling Initialize() multiple
times will simply have no effect, while the first Terminate() will
now shut it down no matter how many times Initialize() was called.
This behaves nicely with all of our supported usage patterns though,
and allows us to fix a number of nasty hacks from before.

This creates a new top-level folder called Initialization which
is intended to hold code specific to LLDB system initialization.
Currently this holds the Initialize() and Terminate() functions,
as well as the fatal error handler.
This provides a means to break the massive dependency cycle which
is caused by the fact that Debugger depends on Initialize and
Terminate which then depends on the entire LLDB project. With
this structure, it will be possible for applications to invoke
lldb_private::Initialize() directly, and have that invoke
Debugger::Initialize.

This works by creating a command backed by a class whose interface should - at least - include
def __init__(self, debugger, session_dict)
def __call__(self, args, return_obj, exe_ctx)
What works:
- adding a command via command script add --class
- calling a thusly created command
What is missing:
- support for custom help
- test cases
The missing parts will follow over the next couple of days
This is an improvement over the existing system as:
a) it provides an obvious location for commands to provide help strings (i.e. methods)
b) it allows commands to store state in an obvious fashion
c) it allows us to easily add features to script commands over time (option parsing and subcommands registration, I am looking at you :-)

This continues the effort to reduce header footprint and improve
build speed by removing clang and other unnecessary headers
from Target.h. In one case, some headers were included solely
for the purpose of declaring a nested class in Target, which was
not needed by anybody outside the class. In this case the
definition and implementation of the nested class were isolated
in the .cpp file so the header could be removed.

This is part of a larger effort to reduce header file footprints.
