(lldb) process connect <remote-url>
Currently when you specify a file with the file command it helps us to find
a process plug-in that is suitable for debugging. If you specify a file you
can rely upon this to find the correct debugger plug-in:
% lldb a.out
Current executable set to 'a.out' (x86_64).
(lldb) process connect connect://localhost:2345
...
If you don't specify a file, you will need to specify the plug-in name that
you wish to use:
% lldb
(lldb) process connect --plugin process.gdb-remote connect://localhost:2345
Other connection URL examples:
(lldb) process connect connect://localhost:2345
(lldb) process connect tcp://127.0.0.1
(lldb) process connect file:///dev/ttyS1
We are currently treating the "connect://host:port" as a way to do raw socket
connections. If there is a URL for this already, please let me know and we
will adopt it.
So now you can connect to a remote debug server with the ProcessGDBRemote
plug-in. After connection, it will ask for the pid info using the "qC" packet
and if it responds with a valid process ID, it will be equivalent to attaching.
If it response with an error or invalid process ID, the LLDB process will be
in a new state: eStateConnected. This allows us to then download a program or
specify the program to run (using the 'A' packet), or specify a process to
attach to (using the "vAttach" packets), or query info about the processes
that might be available.

takes separate file handles for stdin, stdout, and stder and also allows for
the working directory to be specified.
Added support to "process launch" to a new option: --working-dir=PATH. We
can now set the working directory. If this is not set, it defaults to that
of the process that has LLDB loaded. Added the working directory to the
host LaunchInNewTerminal function to allows the current working directory
to be set in processes that are spawned in their own terminal. Also hooked this
up to the lldb_private::Process and all mac plug-ins. The linux plug-in had its
API changed, but nothing is making use of it yet. Modfied "debugserver" and
"darwin-debug" to also handle the current working directory options and modified
the code in LLDB that spawns these tools to pass the info along.
Fixed ProcessGDBRemote to properly pass along all file handles for stdin, stdout
and stderr.
After clearing the default values for the stdin/out/err file handles for
process to be NULL, we had a crasher in UserSettingsController::UpdateStringVariable
which is now fixed. Also fixed the setting of boolean values to be able to
be set as "true", "yes", "on", "1" for true (case insensitive) and "false", "no",
"off", or "0" for false.
Fixed debugserver to properly handle files for STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR that are not
already opened. Previous to this fix debugserver would only correctly open and dupe
file handles for the slave side of a pseudo terminal. It now correctly handles
getting STDIN for the inferior from a file, and spitting STDOUT and STDERR out to
files. Also made sure the file handles were correctly opened with the NOCTTY flag
for terminals.
llvm-svn: 124060
inferior to be launched without setting up terminal stdin/stdout for it
(leaving the lldb command line accessible while the program is executing).
Also add a user settings variable, 'target.process.disable-stdio' to allow
the user to set this globally rather than having to use the command option
each time the process is launched.
llvm-svn: 120825
adding support into lldb_private::Process:
virtual uint32_t
lldb_private::Process::LoadImage (const FileSpec &image_spec,
Error &error);
virtual Error
lldb_private::Process::UnloadImage (uint32_t image_token);
There is a default implementation that should work for both linux and MacOSX.
This ability has also been exported through the SBProcess API:
uint32_t
lldb::SBProcess::LoadImage (lldb::SBFileSpec &image_spec,
lldb::SBError &error);
lldb::SBError
lldb::SBProcess::UnloadImage (uint32_t image_token);
Modified the DynamicLoader plug-in interface to require it to be able to
tell us if it is currently possible to load/unload a shared library:
virtual lldb_private::Error
DynamicLoader::CanLoadImage () = 0;
This way the dynamic loader plug-ins are allows to veto whether we can
currently load a shared library since the dynamic loader might know if it is
currenlty loading/unloading shared libraries. It might also know about the
current host system and know where to check to make sure runtime or malloc
locks are currently being held.
Modified the expression parser to have ClangUserExpression::Evaluate() be
the one that causes the dynamic checkers to be loaded instead of other code
that shouldn't have to worry about it.

ptrace thread update that was replying to the SIGSTOP was also causing the
process to not really be sigstop'd any more so then the call to ptrace
detach was failing, and when debugserver exited the attached process
was being killed. Now the ptrace thread update does not disturb the sigstop
state of the thread, so the detach works properly.
llvm-svn: 118018
optionally specify the tty you want to use if you want to use an existing
terminal window by giving a partial or full path name:
(lldb) process launch --tty=ttys002
This would find the terminal window (or tab on MacOSX) that has ttys002 in its
tty path and use it. If it isn't found, it will use a new terminal window.
llvm-svn: 116878
sockets so the driver doesn't just crash.
Added support for connecting to named sockets (unix IPC sockets) in
ConnectionFileDescriptor.
Modified the Host::LaunchInNewTerminal() for MacOSX to return the process
ID of the inferior process instead of the process ID of the Terminal.app. This
was done by modifying the "darwin-debug" executable to connect to lldb through
a named unix socket which is passed down as an argument. This allows a quick
handshake between "lldb" and "darwin-debug" so we can get the process ID
of the inferior and then attach by process ID and avoid attaching to the
inferior by process name since there could be more than one process with
that name. This still has possible race conditions, those will be fixed
in the near future. This fixes the SIGPIPE issues that were sometimes being
seen when task_for_pid was failing.

"vAttachName;<PROCNAME>" packet, and wait for a new process by name to launch
with the "vAttachWait;<PROCNAME>".
Fixed a few issues with attaching where if DoAttach() returned no error, yet
there was no valid process ID, we would deadlock waiting for an event that
would never happen.
Added a new "process launch" option "--tty" that will launch the process
in a new terminal if the Host layer supports the "Host::LaunchInNewTerminal(...)"
function. This currently works on MacOSX and will allow the debugging of
terminal applications that do complex operations with the terminal.
Cleaned up the output when the process resumes, stops and halts to be
consistent with the output format.
llvm-svn: 116693
if no update commands are specified it just lists the current values, and show that
it always shows the new values for a signal after it has been updated. Also updated
the help text to match the new functionality.
llvm-svn: 116520
Add missing break statment to case statement in Process::ShouldBroadcastEvent.
Add new command, "process handle" to allow users to control process behavior on
the receipt of various Unix signals (whether the process should stop; whether the
process should be passed the signal; whether the debugger user should be notified
that the signal came in).

tricks to get types to resolve. I did this by correctly including the correct
files: stdint.h and all lldb-*.h files first before including the API files.
This allowed me to remove all of the hacks that were in the lldb.swig file
and it also allows all of the #defines in lldb-defines.h and enumerations
in lldb-enumerations.h to appear in the lldb.py module. This will make the
python script code a lot more readable.
Cleaned up the "process launch" command to not execute a "process continue"
command, it now just does what it should have with the internal API calls
instead of executing another command line command.
Made the lldb_private::Process set the state to launching and attaching if
WillLaunch/WillAttach return no error respectively.
llvm-svn: 115902
arguments are specified in a standardized way, will have a standardized name, and
have functioning help.
The next step is to start writing useful help for all the argument types.
llvm-svn: 115335
- All single character options will now be printed together
- Changed all options that contains underscores to contain '-' instead
- Made the help come out a little flatter by showing the long and short
option on the same line.
- Modified the short character for "--ignore-count" options to "-i"

accessed by the objects that own the settings. The previous approach wasn't
very usable and made for a lot of unnecessary code just to access variables
that were already owned by the objects.
While I fixed those things, I saw that CommandObject objects should really
have a reference to their command interpreter so they can access the terminal
with if they want to output usaage. Fixed up all CommandObjects to take
an interpreter and cleaned up the API to not need the interpreter to be
passed in.
Fixed the disassemble command to output the usage if no options are passed
down and arguments are passed (all disassebmle variants take options, there
are no "args only").

Make get/set variable at the debugger level always set the particular debugger's instance variables rather than
the default variables.
llvm-svn: 113474
handles user settable internal variables (the equivalent of set/show
variables in gdb). In addition to the basic infrastructure (most of
which is defined in UserSettingsController.{h,cpp}, there are examples
of two classes that have been set up to contain user settable
variables (the Debugger and Process classes). The 'settings' command
has been modified to be a command-subcommand structure, and the 'set',
'show' and 'append' commands have been moved into this sub-commabnd
structure. The old StateVariable class has been completely replaced
by this, and the state variable dictionary has been removed from the
Command Interpreter. Places that formerly accessed the state variable
mechanism have been modified to access the variables in this new
structure instead (checking the term-width; getting/checking the
prompt; etc.)
Variables are attached to classes; there are two basic "flavors" of
variables that can be set: "global" variables (static/class-wide), and
"instance" variables (one per instance of the class). The whole thing
has been set up so that any global or instance variable can be set at
any time (e.g. on start up, in your .lldbinit file), whether or not
any instances actually exist (there's a whole pending and default
values mechanism to help deal with that).
llvm-svn: 113041
Arrange that this then gets properly set on attach, or when a "file" is set.
Add a completer for "process attach -n".
Caveats: there isn't currently a way to handle multiple processes with the same name. That
will have to wait on a way to pass annotations along with the completion strings.
llvm-svn: 110624
Move the "source", "alias", and "unalias" commands to "commands *".
Move "source-file" to "source list".
Added a "source info" command but it isn't implemented yet.

to the debugger from GUI windows. Previously there was one global debugger
instance that could be accessed that had its own command interpreter and
current state (current target/process/thread/frame). When a GUI debugger
was attached, if it opened more than one window that each had a console
window, there were issues where the last one to setup the global debugger
object won and got control of the debugger.
To avoid this we now create instances of the lldb_private::Debugger that each
has its own state:
- target list for targets the debugger instance owns
- current process/thread/frame
- its own command interpreter
- its own input, output and error file handles to avoid conflicts
- its own input reader stack
So now clients should call:
SBDebugger::Initialize(); // (static function)
SBDebugger debugger (SBDebugger::Create());
// Use which ever file handles you wish
debugger.SetErrorFileHandle (stderr, false);
debugger.SetOutputFileHandle (stdout, false);
debugger.SetInputFileHandle (stdin, true);
// main loop
SBDebugger::Terminate(); // (static function)
SBDebugger::Initialize() and SBDebugger::Terminate() are ref counted to
ensure nothing gets destroyed too early when multiple clients might be
attached.
Cleaned up the command interpreter and the CommandObject and all subclasses
to take more appropriate arguments.
llvm-svn: 106615
Fixed the Disassemble arguments so you can't specify start address or name in multiple ways.
Fixed the command line input so you can specify the filename without "-f" even if you use other options.
