* 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.
This adds a workaround for the bug described at:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/25841
Because dsymutil running on PIE does not adjust the address of
debug_frame entries (but adjusts debug_info entries) we try to do the
adjustment ourselves.
Updates #2346
- remove github workflow for testing macOS/amd64 that is now covered by
TeamCity
- fix DeepSource glob patterns to actually match what they are intended
to match (did the interpretation change?)
- disable some cgo tests on darwin/arm64
Delve represents registerized variables (fully or partially) using
compositeMemory, implementing proc.(*compositeMemory).WriteMemory is
necessary to make SetVariable and function calls work when Go will
switch to using the register calling convention in 1.17.
This commit also makes some refactoring by moving the code that
converts between register numbers and register names out of pkg/proc
into a different package.
* TeamCity: add linux/arm64/tip configuration
So that it can be tested when we make the next-version-support-branch.
* tests: disable failing cgo tests on arm64
Remove OS specific install instructions that all repeat the same thing.
Since `go get ...` is being deprecated (to install executables)
recommend an install procedure that works on all supported versions of
go (`git clone && go install`) but also mention the new `go install`
mode in 1.16.
* 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
Add a helper method for collecting line table file references that
does the correct thing for DWARF 5 vs DWARF 4 (in the latter case you
have an implicit 0 entry which is the comp dir, whereas in the former
case you do not). This is to avoid out-of-bounds errors when examining
the file table section of a DWARF 5 compilation unit's line table.
Included is a new linux/amd-only test that includes a precompiled C
object file with a DWARF-5 section that triggers the bug in question.
Fixes#2319
Due to a missing check TestCgoStacktrace2 didn't actually check
anything. Enable it and then skip it on linux/386 and linux/arm64 where
it's broken.

* proc/tests: keep track of tests skipped due to backend problems
Mark tests skipped due to backend problems and add a script to keep
track of them.
* Travis-CI: add ignorechecksum option to chocolatey command
Looks like a configuration problem on chocolatey's end.
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.
Clarify that the currently supported version of the API is 2 and that
the preferred method for selecting it is sending a SetApiVersion
command after connection.
Fixes#2066
* 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.

* cmd/dlv,debugger: Improve dlv trace and trace command output
This patch improves the `dlv trace` subcommand output by reducing the
noise that is generated and providing clearer more concise information.
Also adds new tests closing a gap in our testing (we previously never
really tested this subcommand).
This patch also fixes the `dlv trace` REPL command to behave like the
subcommand in certain situations. If the tracepoint is for a function,
we now show function arguements and return values properly.
Also makes the overall output of the trace subcommand clearer.
Fixes#2027
This flag allows users on UNIX systems to set the tty for the program
being debugged by Delve. This is useful for debugging command line
applications which need access to their own TTY, and also for
controlling the output of the debugged programs so that IDEs may open a
dedicated terminal to show the output for the process.
1. Adds a note to the documentation describing how to use 'go get' in
modules mode
2. Removes the '-u' option which, when 'go get' is used incorrectly
will make 'go' try to compile Delve with unsupported dependencies
3. Removed obsolete note about Go 1.5 vendor experiment.
Fixes#1988
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
1. Don't use intelligent '#' in fmt of go because it is not always satisfying
for diffrent version of golang. Always keep one leading zero for octal and
one leading '0x' for hex manually. Then keep alignment for every byte.
2. Always keep addr alignment when the lens of two adjacent address are
different.
Update #1814.
Adds an optional scope prefix to the `regs` command which allows
printing registers for any stack frame (as long as they were somehow
saved). Issue #1838 is not yet to be closed since we are still not
recovering the registers of a segfaulting frame.
Updates #1838
According to #1800#1584#1038, `dlv` should enable the user to dive into
memory. User can print binary data in specific memory address range.
But not support for sepecific variable name or structures temporarily.(Because
I have no idea that modify `print` command.)
Close#1584.
* service: also search IPv6 connections when checking user
When checking if the user is allowed to connect to this Delve instance
also search IPv6 connections even though the local address is IPv4.
Fixes#1835
* cmd: add flag to disable same-user check
Fixes#1835
Adds an API call that returns a list of packages contained in the
program and the files that were used to build them, and also a best
guess at which filesystem directory contained the package when it was
built.
This can be used by IDEs to map file paths if the debugging environment
doesn't match the build environment exactly.
This script re-runs a program until it fails or hits a breakpoint, it
is useful for debugging non-deterministic problems when used in
conjunction with rr.
Make the 'list' command succeed for file:line expressions that don't
map to any instruction.
Adds an argument to the FindLocations API call that makes FindLocations
return if the expression can be parsed, even if it doesn't end up
matching any instruction in debug_line.
Adds a '-r' option to the 'restart' command (and to the Restart API)
that re-records the target when using rr.
Also moves the code to delete the trace directory inside the gdbserial
package.
Add options to start a stacktrace from the values saved in the
runtime.g struct as well as a way to disable the stackSwitch logic and
just get a normal stacktrace.
If a closure captures a variable but also defines a variable of the
same name in its root scope the shadowed flag would, sometimes, not be
appropriately applied to the captured variable.
This change:
1. sorts the variable list by depth *and* declaration line, so that
closure captured variables always appear before other root-scope
variables, regardless of the order used by the compiler
2. marks variable with the same name as shadowed even if there is only
one scope at play.
This fixes the problem but as a side effect:
1. programs compiled with Go prior to version 1.9 will have the
shadowed flag applied arbitrarily (previously the shadowed flag was not
applied at all)
2. programs compiled with Go prior to versoin 1.11 will still exhibit
the bug, as they do not have DeclLine information.

If the argument of 'source' ends in '.star' it will be interpreted as a
starlark script.
If the argument of 'source' is '-' an interactive starlark repl will be
started.
For documentation on how the starlark execution environment works see
Documentation/cli/starlark.md.
The starlark API is autogenerated from the JSON-RPC API by
script/gen-starlark-bindings.go.
In general for each JSON-RPC API a single global starlark function is
created.
When one of those functions is called (through a starlark script) the
arguments are converted to go structs using reflection. See
unmarshalStarlarkValue in pkg/terminal/starbind/conv.go.
If there are no type conversion errors the JSON-RPC call is executed.
The return value of the JSON-RPC call is converted back into a starlark
value by interfaceToStarlarkValue (same file):
* primitive types (such as integers, floats or strings) are converted
by creating the corresponding starlark value.
* compound types (such as structs and slices) are converted by wrapping
their reflect.Value object into a type that implements the relevant
starlark interfaces.
* api.Variables are treated specially so that their Value field can be
of the proper type instead of always being a string.
Implements #1415, #1443
The location specified '<fnname>:0' could be used to set a breakpoint
on the entry point of the function (as opposed to locspec '<fnname>'
which sets it after the prologue).
Setting a breakpoint on an entry point is almost never useful, the way
this feature was implemented could cause it to be used accidentally and
there are other ways to accomplish the same task (by setting a
breakpoint on the PC address directly).
Before doing anything check that the version of Go is compatible with
the current version of Delve.
This will improve the error message in the case that another change as
disruptive as Go1.11 dwarf compression, happens.
* *: use loglevel to control what gets logged instead of output redirection
This stops logrus from doing all the formatting just to discard it
immediately afterwards.
* logflags: replace default formatter of logrus
The default formatter of logrus emits logs in two different formats
depending on whether or not the output is going to a terminal. The
output format for non-terminals is indented to be machine readable, but
we mostly read logs ourselves and the excessive quoting makes that
format unreadable.
When outputting to terminals it uses ANSI escape codes unconditionally,
without checking whether the terminal it is connected to actually
supports colors.
This commit replaces the default formatter with a much simpler
formatter that always uses a more readable format, doesn't use colors
and places the key-value pairs at the beginning of the line (which is a
better match for how we use them).
* cmd/dlv: add command line options to redirect logs
Adds two options, --log-to-file and --log-to-fd, to redirect logs to a
file or to a file descriptor.
When one of those two options is specified the "API server listening
at:" message will also be redirected to the specified file/file
descriptor.
This allows clients that want to use the "API server listening at:"
message to do so even if they want to redirect the target's stdout to
another file or device.

Fixes#1373
On macOS 10.14 Apple changed the command line tools so that system
headers now need to be manually installed.
Instead of adding one extra install step to the install procedure add a
build tag to allow compilation of delve without the native backend on
macOS. By default (i.e. when using `go get`) this is how delve will be
compiled on macOS, the make script is changed to enable compiling the
native backend if the required dependencies have been installed.
Insure that both configuration still build correctly on Travis CI and
change the documentation to describe how to compile the native backend
and that it isn't normally needed.
Fixes#1359
With this syntax users do not need to type the concrete type of an
interface variable to access its contents. This also sidesteps the
problem where the serialization of a type by go/printer is different
from the one used for debug_info type names.
