Raphael Isemann 5dca0596a9 [lldb] Add a SubsystemRAII that takes care of calling Initialize and Terminate in the unit tests
Summary:
Many of our tests need to initialize certain subsystems/plugins of LLDB such as
`FileSystem` or `HostInfo` by calling their static `Initialize` functions before the
test starts and then calling `::Terminate` after the test is done (in reverse order).
This adds a lot of error-prone boilerplate code to our testing code.

This patch adds a RAII called SubsystemRAII that ensures that we always call
::Initialize and then call ::Terminate after the test is done (and that the Terminate
calls are always in the reverse order of the ::Initialize calls). It also gets rid of
all of the boilerplate that we had for these calls.

Per-fixture initialization is still not very nice with this approach as it would
require some kind of static unique_ptr that gets manually assigned/reseted
from the gtest SetUpTestCase/TearDownTestCase functions. Because of that
I changed all per-fixture setup to now do per-test setup which can be done
by just having the SubsystemRAII as a member of the test fixture. This change doesn't
influence our normal test runtime as LIT anyway runs each test case separately
(and the Initialize/Terminate calls are anyway not very expensive). It will however
make running all tests in a single executable slightly slower.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

This directory and its subdirectories contain source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and runtime environments.

The README briefly describes how to get started with building LLVM. For more information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting Started with the LLVM System

Taken from https://llvm.org/docs/GettingStarted.html.

Overview

Welcome to the LLVM project!

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and converts it into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer. It also contains basic regression tests.

C-like languages use the Clang front end. This component compiles C, C++, Objective C, and Objective C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

The LLVM Getting Started documentation may be out of date. The Clang Getting Started page might have more accurate information.

This is an example workflow and configuration to get and build the LLVM source:

  1. Checkout LLVM (including related subprojects like Clang):

    • git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git

    • Or, on windows, git clone --config core.autocrlf=false https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git

  2. Configure and build LLVM and Clang:

    • cd llvm-project

    • mkdir build

    • cd build

    • cmake -G <generator> [options] ../llvm

      Some common generators are:

      • Ninja --- for generating Ninja build files. Most llvm developers use Ninja.
      • Unix Makefiles --- for generating make-compatible parallel makefiles.
      • Visual Studio --- for generating Visual Studio projects and solutions.
      • Xcode --- for generating Xcode projects.

      Some Common options:

      • -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS='...' --- semicolon-separated list of the LLVM subprojects you'd like to additionally build. Can include any of: clang, clang-tools-extra, libcxx, libcxxabi, libunwind, lldb, compiler-rt, lld, polly, or debuginfo-tests.

        For example, to build LLVM, Clang, libcxx, and libcxxabi, use -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;libcxx;libcxxabi".

      • -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=directory --- Specify for directory the full pathname of where you want the LLVM tools and libraries to be installed (default /usr/local).

      • -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=type --- Valid options for type are Debug, Release, RelWithDebInfo, and MinSizeRel. Default is Debug.

      • -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=On --- Compile with assertion checks enabled (default is Yes for Debug builds, No for all other build types).

    • Run your build tool of choice!

      • The default target (i.e. ninja or make) will build all of LLVM.

      • The check-all target (i.e. ninja check-all) will run the regression tests to ensure everything is in working order.

      • CMake will generate build targets for each tool and library, and most LLVM sub-projects generate their own check-<project> target.

      • Running a serial build will be slow. To improve speed, try running a parallel build. That's done by default in Ninja; for make, use make -j NNN (NNN is the number of parallel jobs, use e.g. number of CPUs you have.)

    • For more information see CMake
