Change the examinemem command to have a new format 'raw' that just
prints the raw memory bytes.
Change the transcript command to add a new flag that disables prompt
echo to the output file.
Fixes#3706
Allows for a user to specify the breakpoint condition directly
when creating the breakpoint. The new syntax looks like the
following:
```
break <name> <locspec> [if <expression>]
```
Also updates docs to include more examples and locspec description
instead of directing users to the online / source documentation.
This command lists the packages included in the debugee.
The implementation utilizes "ListPackagesBuildInfo" RPC.
In order to support server-side filtering like `sources` and other
commands, expanded the ListPackagesBuildInfo RPC to take an optional
filter field.
Adds -chan option to the goroutines command to list only the goroutines
running on a specified channel.
Also when printing a variable if it is a channel also print the list of
goroutines that are waiting on it.
A series of interconnected changes to both the terminal command
'config', DAP command 'dlv config', quality of life improvements to how
substitute-path works, and better documentation.
- Let 'config substitute-path' show the current substitute path rules
- Add a -clear command to 'config substitute-path'
- Support 'config-debug-info-directories'
- rewrite SubstitutePath to be platform independent (see below)
- document path substitution more
Regarding the rewrite of SubstitutePath: the previous version used
runtime.GOOS and filepath.IsAbs to determine which filepath separator to use
and if matching should be case insensitive. This is wrong in all situations
where the client and server run on different OSes, when examining core files
and when cross-compilation is involved.
The new version of SubstitutePath checks the rules and the input path to
determine if Windows is involved in the process, if it looks like it is it
switches to case-insensitive matching. It uses a lax version of
filepath.IsAbs to determine if a path is absolute and tries to avoid having
to select a path separator as much as possible

Remove leftover references to $GOPATH in documentation, change script
that generates markdown documentation to look for substrings that start
with "Documentation/" instead.

Often in the CLI documentation we were to inputs as linespec
when in reality we mean locspec which is a
location specifier, not necessarily a
line specifier.
Adds a transcript command that appends all command output to a file.
This command is equivalent to gdb's 'set logging'.
As part of this refactor the pkg/terminal commands to always write to a
io.Writer instead of using os.Stdout directly (through
fmt.Printf/fmt.Println).
Fixes#2237
This could probably be more user-friendly, in that you can't give a name
to such a breakpoint. To add support for names, we would need to try
a single arg first as a location, and if that fails try it as a name for
current line. That seems somewht dubious, so I didn't try.
Adds watchpoint support to gdbserver backend for rr debugger and
debugserver on macOS/amd64 and macOS/arm64.
Also changes stack watchpoints to support reverse execution.
* terminal,service: add way to see internal breakpoints
Now that Delve has internal breakpoints that survive for long periods
of time it will be useful to have an option to display them.
* proc,terminal,service: support stack watchpoints
Adds support for watchpoints on stack allocated variables.
When a stack variable is watched, in addition to the normal watchpoint
some support breakpoints are created:
- one breakpoint inside runtime.copystack, used to adjust the address
of the watchpoint when the stack is resized
- one or more breakpoints used to detect when the stack variable goes
out of scope, those are similar to the breakpoints set by StepOut.
Implements #279
Before this change when you typed `help` at the Delve prompt you would
only see the following:
```
examinemem (alias: x) Examine memory:
```
Now with this patch the output is more descriptive:
```
examinemem (alias: x) Examine raw memory at the given address.
```
* terminal: improve 'on' command
Adds the ability to edit the list of commands executed after stopping
on a breakpoint, as well as converting a breakpoint into a tracepoint
and vice versa.
Prior to this it was possible to add commands to a breakpoint but
removing commands or changing a breakpoint into a tracepoint, or vice
versa, could only be done by removing and recreating the breakpoint.
Adds filtering and grouping to the goroutines command.
The current implementation of the goroutines command is modeled after
the threads command of gdb. It works well for programs that have up to
a couple dozen goroutines but becomes unusable quickly after that.
This commit adds the ability to filter and group goroutines by several
different properties, allowing a better debugging experience on
programs that have hundreds or thousands of goroutines.
Changes the expression evaluation code so that register names, when not
shadowed by local or global variables, will evaluate to the current
value of the corresponding CPU register.
This allows a greater flexibility with displaying CPU registers than is
possible with using the ListRegisters API call. Also it allows
debuggers users to view register values even if the frontend they are
using does not implement a register view.
* examinememory: evaluate addr as expression
This makes it easy to read memory locations at an offset of a known
address, e.g.:
x 0xc000046800 + 32
* use feedback from @aarzilli
- expression mode is now enabled via -x flag
- support "-x var", "-x &var" in addition to "-x <addr expr>"
- some refactoring
* add test cases
* deal with double spaces
* update docs
* add new failing test
* fix docs
* simplify implementation, update test & docs
* Fix docs
Changes print so a format argument can be specified by using '%' as
prefix. For example:
print %x d
will print variable 'd' in hexadecimal. The interpretarion of the
format argument is the same as that of fmt's package.

* Adds toggle command
Also adds two rpc2 tests for testing the new functionality
* Removes Debuggers' ToggleBreakpoint method
rpc2's ToggleBreakpoint now calls AmendBreakpoint
Refactors the ClearBreakpoint to avoid a lock.
* proc/core: off-by-one error reading ELF core files
core.(*splicedMemory).ReadMemory checked the entry interval
erroneously when dealing with contiguous entries.
* terminal,service,proc/*: adds dump command (gcore equivalent)
Adds the `dump` command that creates a core file from the target process.
Backends will need to implement a new, optional, method `MemoryMap` that
returns a list of mapped memory regions.
Additionally the method `DumpProcessNotes` can be implemented to write out
to the core file notes describing the target process and its threads. If
DumpProcessNotes is not implemented `proc.Dump` will write a description of
the process and its threads in a OS/arch-independent format (that only Delve
understands).
Currently only linux/amd64 implements `DumpProcessNotes`.
Core files are only written in ELF, there is no minidump or macho-o writers.
# Conflicts:
# pkg/proc/proc_test.go
Adds features to support default file descriptor redirects for the
target process:
1. A new command line flag '--redirect' and '-r' are added to specify
file redirects for the target process
2. New syntax is added to the 'restart' command to specify file
redirects.
3. Interactive instances will check if stdin/stdout and stderr are
terminals and print a helpful error message if they aren't.
* terminal/command: Add 'reload' command
These changes add the 'reload' command, which allows us to rebuild the project
and start the debugging session again. Currently, if the project's code is
updated while debugging it, Delve shows the new source code, but it's still
running the old one. With 'reload', the whole binary is rebuilt, and the
process starts again.

Allows Delve clients to stop a recording midway by sending a
Command('halt')
request.
This is implemented by changing debugger.New to start recording the
process on a separate goroutine while holding the processMutex locked.
By locking the processMutex we ensure that almost all RPC requests will
block until the recording is done, since we can not respond correctly
to any of them.
API calls that do not require manipulating or examining the target
process, such as "IsMulticlient", "SetApiVersion" and
"GetState(nowait=true)" will work while we are recording the process.
Two other internal changes are made to the API: both GetState and
Restart become asynchronous requests, like Command. Restart because
this way it can be interrupted by a StopRecording request if the
rerecord option is passed.
GetState because clients need a call that will block until the
recording is compelted and can also be interrupted with a
StopRecording.
Clients that are uninterested in allowing the user to stop a recording
can ignore this change, since eventually they will make a request to
Delve that will block until the recording is completed.
Clients that wish to support this feature must:
1. call GetState(nowait=false) after connecting to Delve, before any
call that would need to manipulate the target process
2. allow the user to send a StopRecording request during the initial
GetState call
3. allow the user to send a StopRecording request during any subsequent
Restart(rerecord=true) request (if supported).
Implements #1747
* proc: move defer breakpoint code into a function
Moves the code that sets a breakpoint on the first deferred function,
used by both next and StepOut, to its function.
* proc: implement reverse step/next/stepout
When the direction of execution is reversed (on a recording) Step, Next and
StepOut will behave similarly to their forward version. However there are
some subtle interactions between their behavior, prologue skipping, deferred
calls and normal calls. Specifically:
- when stepping backwards we need to set a breakpoint on the first
instruction after each CALL instruction, once this breakpoint is reached we
need to execute a single StepInstruction operation to reverse step into the
CALL.
- to insure that the prologue is skipped reverse next needs to check if it
is on the first instruction after the prologue, and if it is behave like
reverse stepout.
- there is no reason to set breakpoints on deferred calls when reverse
nexting or reverse stepping out, they will never be hit.
- reverse step out should generally place its breakpoint on the CALL
instruction that created the current stack frame (which will be the CALL
instruction immediately preceding the instruction at the return address).
- reverse step out needs to treat panic calls and deferreturn calls
specially.
* service,terminal: implement reverse step, next, stepout
