[lldb] Part 1 of 2 - Refactor `CommandObject::Execute(...)` to return
`void` instead of ~~`bool`~~
Justifications:
- The code doesn't ultimately apply the `true`/`false` return values.
- The methods already pass around a `CommandReturnObject`, typically
with a `result` parameter.
- Each command return object already contains:
- A more precise status
- The error code(s) that apply to that status
Part 2 refactors the `CommandObject::DoExecute(...)` method.
- See

Fix a crash when trying to complete an ambiguous subcommand. Take `set s
tar` for example: for the subcommand `s` there's ambiguity between set
and show. Pressing TAB after this input currently crashes LLDB. The
problem is that we're trying to complete `tar` but give up at `s`
because of the ambiguity. LLDB doesn't expect the completed string to be
shorter than the current string and crashes when trying to eliminate the
common prefix.

This is processed by hand in CommandObjectMultiword, and is undiscoverable,
it doesn't work in all cases. Because it is a bare word, it can't really be
extended w/o introducing the possibility of collisions as well. If we did
want to do something like this we should add a --help flag to CommandObject. That
way the feature would be consistent and documented.

This patch mechanically replaces None with std::nullopt where the
compiler would warn if None were deprecated. The intent is to reduce
the amount of manual work required in migrating from Optional to
std::optional.
This is part of an effort to migrate from llvm::Optional to
std::optional:
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/deprecating-llvm-optional-x-hasvalue-getvalue-getvalueor/63716
This way if you have a long stack, you can issue "thread backtrace --count 10"
and then subsequent <Return>-s will page you through the stack.
This took a little more effort than just adding the repeat command, since
the GetRepeatCommand API was returning a "const char *". That meant the command
had to keep the repeat string alive, which is inconvenient. The original
API returned either a nullptr, or a const char *, so I changed the private API to
return an llvm::Optional<std::string>. Most of the patch is propagating that change.
Also, there was a little thinko in fetching the repeat command. We don't
fetch repeat commands for commands that aren't being added to history, which
is in general reasonable. And we don't add repeat commands to the history -
also reasonable. But we do want the repeat command to be able to generate
the NEXT repeat command. So I adjusted the logic in HandleCommand to work
that way.

The point is to allow users with a related set of script based commands

Depends on D90490.
The stop command is simple and invokes the new method Trace::StopTracingThread(thread).
On the other hand, the start command works by delegating its implementation to a CommandObject provided by the Trace plugin. This is necessary because each trace plugin needs different options for this command. There's even the chance that a Trace plugin can't support live tracing, but instead supports offline decoding and analysis, which means that "thread trace dump instructions" works but "thread trace start" doest. Because of this and a few other reasons, it's better to have each plugin provide this implementation.
Besides, I'm using the GetSupportedTraceType method introduced in D90490 to quickly infer what's the trace plug-in that works for the current process.
As an implementation note, I moved CommandObjectIterateOverThreads to its header so that I can use it from the IntelPT plugin. Besides, the actual start and stop logic for intel-pt is not part of this diff.

This is how it should've been and brings it more in line with
std::string_view. There should be no functional change here.
This is mostly mechanical from a custom clang-tidy check, with a lot of
manual fixups. It uncovers a lot of minor inefficiencies.
This doesn't actually modify StringRef yet, I'll do that in a follow-up.
Summary:
A *.cpp file header in LLDB (and in LLDB) should like this:
```
//===-- TestUtilities.cpp -------------------------------------------------===//
```
However in LLDB most of our source files have arbitrary changes to this format and
these changes are spreading through LLDB as folks usually just use the existing
source files as templates for their new files (most notably the unnecessary
editor language indicator `-*- C++ -*-` is spreading and in every review
someone is pointing out that this is wrong, resulting in people pointing out that this
is done in the same way in other files).
This patch removes most of these inconsistencies including the editor language indicators,
all the different missing/additional '-' characters, files that center the file name, missing
trailing `===//` (mostly caused by clang-format breaking the line).

This is the only legitimate use we currently have for modifying
a CompletionRequest. Add a utility function for this purpose
and remove the remaining setters which go against the idea of
having an immutable CompletionRequest.
llvm-svn: 372858
We should in general not allow external code to fiddle with the internals of
CompletionRequest, but until this is gone let's at least provide a utility
function that makes this less dangerous.
This also now correct updates the partially parsed argument list,
but it doesn't seem to be used by anything that is behind one of
the current shift/SetCursorIndex calls, so this doesn't seeem to
fix any currently used completion.

The StringRef should always be identical to the C string, so we
might as well just create the StringRef from the C-string. This
might be slightly slower until we implement the storage of ArgEntry
with a string instead of a std::unique_ptr<char[]>. Until then we
have to do the additional strlen on the C string to construct the
StringRef.
llvm-svn: 371842
Summary:
We still have some leftovers of the old completion API in the internals of
LLDB that haven't been replaced by the new CompletionRequest. These leftovers
are:
* The return values (int/size_t) in all completion functions.
* Our result array that starts indexing at 1.
* `WordComplete` mode.
I didn't replace them back then because it's tricky to figure out what exactly they
are used for and the completion code is relatively untested. I finally got around
to writing more tests for the API and understanding the semantics, so I think it's
a good time to get rid of them.
A few words why those things should be removed/replaced:
* The return values are really cryptic, partly redundant and rarely documented.
They are also completely ignored by Xcode, so whatever information they contain will end up
breaking Xcode's completion mechanism. They are also partly impossible to even implement
as we assign negative values special meaning and our completion API sometimes returns size_t.
Completion functions are supposed to return -2 to rewrite the current line. We seem to use this
in some untested code path to expand the history repeat character to the full command, but
I haven't figured out why that doesn't work at the moment.
Completion functions return -1 to 'insert the completion character', but that isn't implemented
(even though we seem to activate this feature in LLDB sometimes).
All positive values have to match the number of results. This is obviously just redundant information
as the user can just look at the result list to get that information (which is what Xcode does).
* The result array that starts indexing at 1 is obviously unexpected. The first element of the array is
reserved for the common prefix of all completions (e.g. "foobar" and "footar" -> "foo"). The idea is
that we calculate this to make the life of the API caller easier, but obviously forcing people to have
1-based indices is not helpful (or even worse, forces them to manually copy the results to make it
0-based like Xcode has to do).
* The `WordComplete` mode indicates that LLDB should enter a space behind the completion. The
idea is that we let the top-level API know that we just provided a full completion. Interestingly we
`WordComplete` is just a single bool that somehow represents all N completions. And we always
provide full completions in LLDB, so in theory it should always be true.
The only use it currently serves is providing redundant information about whether we have a single
definitive completion or not (which we already know from the number of results we get).
This patch essentially removes `WordComplete` mode and makes the result array indexed from 0.
It also removes all return values from all internal completion functions. The only non-redundant information
they contain is about rewriting the current line (which is broken), so that functionality was moved
to the CompletionRequest API. So you can now do `addCompletion("blub", "description", CompletionMode::RewriteLine)`
to do the same.
For the SB API we emulate the old behaviour by making the array indexed from 1 again with the common
prefix at index 0. I didn't keep the special negative return codes as we either never sent them before (e.g. -2) or we
didn't even implement them in the Editline handler (e.g. -1).
I tried to keep this patch minimal and I'm aware we can probably now even further simplify a bunch of related code,
but I would prefer doing this in follow-up NFC commits

A lot of comments in LLDB are surrounded by an ASCII line to delimit the
begging and end of the comment.
Its use is not really consistent across the code base, sometimes the
lines are longer, sometimes they are shorter and sometimes they are
omitted. Furthermore, it looks kind of weird with the 80 column limit,
where the comment actually extends past the line, but not by much.
Furthermore, when /// is used for Doxygen comments, it looks
particularly odd. And when // is used, it incorrectly gives the
impression that it's actually a Doxygen comment.
I assume these lines were added to improve distinguishing between
comments and code. However, given that todays editors and IDEs do a
great job at highlighting comments, I think it's worth to drop this for
the sake of consistency. The alternative is fixing all the
inconsistencies, which would create a lot more churn.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header

Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM

include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of

This patch removes the comments grouping header includes. They were

llvm-svn: 346626
Summary:
This patch adds a framework for adding descriptions to the command completions we provide.
It also adds descriptions for completed top-level commands so that we can test this code.
Completions are in general supposed to be displayed alongside the completion itself. The descriptions
can be used to provide additional information about the completion to the user. Examples for descriptions
are function signatures when completing function calls in the expression command or the binary name
when providing completion for a symbol.
There is still some boilerplate code from the old completion API left in LLDB (mostly because the respective
APIs are reused for non-completion related purposes, so the CompletionRequest doesn't make sense to be
used), so that's why I still had to change some function signatures. Also, as the old API only passes around a
list of matches, and the descriptions are for these functions just another list, I had to add some code that
essentially just ensures that both lists are always the same side (e.g. all the manual calls to
`descriptions->AddString(X)` below a `matches->AddString(Y)` call).
The initial command descriptions that come with this patch are just reusing the existing
short help that is already added in LLDB.
An example completion with descriptions looks like this:
```
(lldb) pl
Available completions:
platform -- Commands to manage and create platforms.
plugin -- Commands for managing LLDB plugins.

Summary:
We currently allow any completion handler to read and manipulate the list of matches we
calculated so far. This leads to a few problems:
Firstly, a completion handler's logic can now depend on previously calculated results
by another handlers. No completion handler should have such an implicit dependency,
but the current API makes it likely that this could happen (or already happens). Especially
the fact that some completion handler deleted all previously calculated results can mess
things up right now.
Secondly, all completion handlers have knowledge about our internal data structures with
this API. This makes refactoring this internal data structure much harder than it should be.
Especially planned changes like the support of descriptions for completions are currently
giant patches because we have to refactor every single completion handler.
This patch narrows the contract the CompletionRequest has with the different handlers to:
1. A handler can suggest a completion.
2. A handler can ask how many suggestions we already have.
Point 2 obviously means we still have a dependency left between the different handlers, but
getting rid of this is too large to just append it to this patch.
Otherwise this patch just completely hides the internal StringList to the different handlers.
The CompletionRequest API now also ensures that the list of completions is unique and we
don't suggest the same value multiple times to the user. This property has been so far only
been ensured by the `Option` handler, but is now applied globally. This is part of this patch
as the OptionHandler is no longer able to implement this functionality itself.

Summary:
This patch refactors the internal completion API. It now takes (as far as possible) a single
CompletionRequest object instead o half a dozen in/out/in-out parameters. The CompletionRequest
contains a common superset of the different parameters as far as it makes sense. This includes
the raw command line string and raw cursor position, which should make the `expr` command
possible to implement (at least without hacks that reconstruct the command line from the args).
This patch is not intended to change the observable behavior of lldb in any way. It's also as
minimal as possible and doesn't attempt to fix all the problems the API has.
Some Q&A:
Q: Why is this not fixing all the problems in the completion API?
A: Because is a blocker for the expr command completion which I want to get in ASAP. This is the
smallest patch that unblocks the expr completion patch and which allows trivial refactoring in the future.
The patch also doesn't really change the internal information flow in the API, so that hopefully
saves us from ever having to revert and resubmit this humongous patch.
Q: Can we merge all the copy-pasted code in the completion methods
(like computing the current incomplete arg) into CompletionRequest class?
A: Yes, but it's out of scope for this patch.
Q: Why the `word_complete = request.GetWordComplete(); ... ` pattern?
A: I don't want to add a getter that returns a reference to the internal integer. So we have
to use a temporary variable and the Getter/Setter instead. We don't throw exceptions
from what I can tell, so the behavior doesn't change.
Q: Why are we not owning the list of matches?
A: Because that's how the previous API works. But that should be fixed too (in another patch).
Q: Can we make the constructor simpler and compute some of the values from the plain command?
A: I think this works, but I rather want to have this in a follow up commit. Especially when making nested
request it's a bit awkward that the parsed arguments behave as both input/output (as we should in theory
propagate the changes on the nested request back to the parent request if we don't want to change the
behavior too much).
Q: Can't we pass one const request object and then just return another result object instead of mixing
them together in one in/out parameter?
A: It's hard to get keep the same behavior with that pattern, but I think we can also get a nice API with just
a single request object. If we make all input parameters read-only, we have a clear separation between what
is actually an input and what an output parameter (and hopefully we get rid of the in-out parameters).
Q: Can we throw out the 'match' variables that are not implemented according to the comment?
A: We currently just forward them as in the old code to the different methods, even though I think
they are really not used. We can easily remove and readd them once every single completion method just
takes a CompletionRequest, but for now I prefer NFC behavior from the perspective of the API user.
