for the frame is one past the address range of the calling function.
- Lowers the fix from RegisterContextLLDB for use with disassembly
- Fixes one of three issues in the disassembly test in TestInferiorAssert.py
Also adds documentation that explains the resolution depths and interface.
Note: This change affects the resolution scope for eSymbolContextFunction
without impacting the performance of eSymbolContextSymbol.
Thanks to Matt Kopec for his review.

This allows the PC to be directly changed to a different line.
It's similar to the example python script in examples/python/jump.py, except implemented as a builtin.
Also this version will track the current function correctly even if the target line resolves to multiple addresses. (e.g. debugging a templated function)

- MachO files now correctly extract the UUID all the time
- More file size and offset verification done for universal mach-o files to watch for truncated files
- ObjectContainerBSDArchive now supports enumerating all objects in BSD archives (.a files)
- lldb_private::Module() can not be properly constructed using a ModuleSpec for a .o file in a .a file
- The BSD archive plug-in shares its cache for GetModuleSpecifications() and the create callback
- Improved printing for ModuleSpec objects
llvm-svn: 186211
- ObjectFile::GetSymtab() and ObjectFile::ClearSymtab() no longer takes any flags
- Module coordinates with the object files and contain a unified section list so that object file and symbol file can share sections when they need to, yet contain their own sections.
Other cleanups:
- Fixed Symbol::GetByteSize() to not have the symbol table compute the byte sizes on the fly
- Modified the ObjectFileMachO class to compute symbol sizes all at once efficiently
- Modified the Symtab class to store a file address lookup table for more efficient lookups
- Removed Section::Finalize() and SectionList::Finalize() as they did nothing
- Improved performance of the detection of symbol files that have debug maps by excluding stripped files and core files, debug files, object files and stubs
- Added the ability to tell if an ObjectFile has been stripped with ObjectFile::IsStripped() (used this for the above performance improvement)

325,000 breakpoints for running "breakpoint set --func-regex ." on lldb itself (after hitting a breakpoint at main so that LLDB.framework is loaded) used to take up to an hour to set, now we are down under a minute. With warm file caches, we are at 40 seconds, and that is with setting 325,000 breakpoint through the GDB remote API. Linux and the native debuggers might be faster. I haven't timed what how much is debug info parsing and how much is the protocol traffic to/from GDB remote.
That there were many performance issues. Most of them were due to storing breakpoints in the wrong data structures, or using the wrong iterators to traverse the lists, traversing the lists in inefficient ways, and not optimizing certain function name lookups/symbol merges correctly.
Debugging after that is also now very efficient. There were issues with replacing the breakpoint opcodes in memory that was read, and those routines were also fixed.

command script import now does reloads - for real
If you invoke command script import foo and it detects that foo has already been imported, it will
- invoke reload(foo) to reload the module in Python
- re-invoke foo.__lldb_init_module
This second step is necessary to ensure that LLDB does not keep cached copies of any formatter, command, ... that the module is providing
Usual caveats with Python imports persist. Among these:
- if you have objects lurking around, reloading the module won't magically update them to reflect changes
- if module A imports module B, reloading A won't reload B
These are Python-specific issues independent of LLDB that would require more extensive design work
The --allow-reload (-r) option is maintained for compatibility with existing scripts, but is clearly documented as redundant - reloading is always enabled whether you use it or not

Lock the lldb_private::Module mutex while tearing down the module to make sure we don't get clients accessing the contents on a module as it is going away.

Yet another implementation of the python in dSYM autoload :)
This time we are going with a ternary setting:
true - load, do not warn
false - do not load, do not warn
warn - do not load, warn (default)
llvm-svn: 182414
There are two settings:
target.load-script-from-symbol-file is a boolean that says load or no load (default: false)
target.warn-on-script-from-symbol-file is also a boolean, it says whether you want to be warned when a script file is not loaded due to security (default: true)
the auto loading on change for target.load-script-from-symbol-file is preserved
llvm-svn: 182336
This changes the setting target.load-script-from-symbol-file to be a ternary enum value:
default (the default value) will NOT load the script files but will issue a warning suggesting workarounds
yes will load the script files
no will not load the script files AND will NOT issue any warning
if you change the setting value from default to yes, that will then cause the script files to be loaded
(the assumption is you didn't know about the setting, got a warning, and quickly want to remedy it)
if you have a settings set command for this in your lldbinit file, be sure to change "true" or "false" into an appropriate "yes" or "no" value

Name matching was working inconsistently across many places in LLDB. Anyone doing name lookups where you want to look for all types of names should used "eFunctionNameTypeAuto" as the sole name type mask. This will ensure that we get consistent "lookup function by name" results. We had many function calls using as mask like "eFunctionNameTypeBase | eFunctionNameTypeFull | eFunctionNameTypeMethod | eFunctionNameTypeSelector". This was due to the function lookup by name evolving over time, but as it stands today, use eFunctionNameTypeAuto when you want general name lookups. Either ModuleList::FindFunctions() or Module::FindFunctions() will figure out the right kinds of names to lookup and remove the "eFunctionNameTypeAuto" and replace it with the exact subset of what the name can be.
This checkin also changes eFunctionNameTypeAny over to use eFunctionNameTypeAuto to reflect this.

Provide a mechanism through which users can disable loading the Python scripts from dSYM files
This relies on a target setting: target.load-script-from-symbol-file which defaults to false ("do NOT load the script")
You need to set it to true before creating your target (or in your lldbinit file if you constantly rely on this feature) to allow the scripts to load

<rdar://problem/13594769>
Main changes in this patch include:
- cleanup plug-in interface and use ConstStrings for plug-in names
- Modfiied the BSD Archive plug-in to be able to pick out the correct .o file when .a files contain multiple .o files with the same name by using the timestamp
- Modified SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap to properly verify the timestamp on .o files it loads to ensure we don't load updated .o files and cause problems when debugging
The plug-in interface changes:
Modified the lldb_private::PluginInterface class that all plug-ins inherit from:
Changed:
virtual const char * GetPluginName() = 0;
To:
virtual ConstString GetPluginName() = 0;
Removed:
virtual const char * GetShortPluginName() = 0;
- Fixed up all plug-in to adhere to the new interface and to return lldb_private::ConstString values for the plug-in names.
- Fixed all plug-ins to return simple names with no prefixes. Some plug-ins had prefixes and most ones didn't, so now they all don't have prefixed names, just simple names like "linux", "gdb-remote", etc.

std::string
Module::GetSpecificationDescription () const;
This returns the module as "/usr/lib/libfoo.dylib" for normal files (calls "std::string FileSpec::GetPath()" on m_file) but it also might include the object name in case the module is for a .o file in a BSD archive ("/usr/lib/libfoo.a(bar.o)"). Cleaned up necessary logging code to use it.
llvm-svn: 180717
Symbol table function names should support lookups like symbols with debug info.
To fix this I:
- Gutted the way FindFunctions is used, there used to be way too much smarts only in the DWARF plug-in
- Made it more efficient by chopping the name up once and using simpler queries so that SymbolFile and Symtab plug-ins don't need to do as much
- Filter the results at a higher level
- Make the lldb_private::Symtab able to chop up C++ mangled names and make as much sense out of them as possible and also be able to search by basename, fullname, method name, and selector name.

LLDB is crashing when logging is enabled from lldb-perf-clang. This has to do with the global destructor chain as the process and its threads are being torn down.
All logging channels now make one and only one instance that is kept in a global pointer which is never freed. This guarantees that logging can correctly continue as the process tears itself down.
