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.
Change FindLocation so it can return a substitute location expression
and propagate it to pkg/terminal/command.
When breakpoints are set using the syntax :<lineno> or +<lineno>
produce a substitute location expression that doesn't depend on having
a valid scope and can be used to restore the breakpoint.
Fixes#3423
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
Fixes#2891, #2890, #2889, #3179, #3332, #3343
Adds field to breakpoint struct to track how a breakpoint was
originally set, moves the logic for disabling and enabling a breakpoint
to proc.
This will allow creating suspended breakpoints that are automatically
enabled when a plugin is loaded. When follow exec mode is implemented
it will also be possible to automatically enable breakpoints (whether
or not they were suspended) on new child processes, as they are
spawned.
It also improves breakpoint restore after a restart, before this after
a restart breakpoints would be re-enabled using their file:line
position, for breakpoints set using a function name or a location
expression this could be the wrong location after a recompile.
Updates #1653
Updates #2551
Go 1.20 switched to uint64 to represent goroutine IDs, we can't
actually follow suit because we have allowed clients to use -1 to refer
to the currently selected goroutine, however we should at least switch
to int64 and also update the rtype check to accept the 1.20 type.

* 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
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.
The existing documentation was a little light on details. This patch
gives more insight into how the argument to this function is used and
interpreted.
* service/rpc2,service/debugger: more doc updates
Combine debugger.CreateBreakpoint documentation with the documentation
that already existed for the rpc2 server CreateBreakpoint method.
Also adds more contextual information for both the server and client
with links to debugger.CreateBreakpoint documentation.
* 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
Since proc is supposed to work independently from the target
architecture it shouldn't use architecture-dependent types, like
uintptr. For example when reading a 64bit core file on a 32bit
architecture, uintptr will be 32bit but the addresses proc needs to
represent will be 64bit.
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
* *: Fix go vet struct complaints
* *: Fix struct vet issue on linux
* *: Ignore proc/native in go vet check

* 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
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.
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 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
* proc: allow simultaneous call injection to multiple goroutines

Fixes#1577
Adds initial support for plugins, this is only the code needed to keep
track of loaded plugins on linux (both native and gdbserial backend).
It does not actually implement support for debugging plugins on linux.
Updates #865
We forgot to run typecheckrpc.go periodically and it didn't work
anymore and there were some minor errors in service/rpc2/client.go.
Rewrite typecheckrpc.go using go/packages, so that it works with go1.11
and go.mod, and fix the issues in client.go
The repository is being switched from the personal account
github.com/derekparker/delve to the organization account
github.com/go-delve/delve. This patch updates imports and docs, while
preserving things which should not be changed such as my name in the
CHANGELOG and in TODO comments.
Instead of unconditionally returning all present goroutines,
GoroutinesInfo now allows specifying a range (start and count). In
addition to the array of goroutines and the error, it now also returns
the next goroutine to be processed, to be used as 'start' argument on
the next call, or 0 if all present goroutines have already been
processed.
This way clients can avoid eating large amounts of RAM while debugging
core dumps and processes with a exceptionally high amount of goroutines.
Fixes#1403
This patch allows the `trace` CLI subcommand to display return values of
a function. Additionally, it will also display information on where the
function exited, which could also be helpful in determining the path
taken during function execution.
Fixes#388
Replace the socket connection with an in-memory connection (created by net.Pipe) for non-headless uses of delve.
This is faster and more secure.
Fixes#1332
Adds -defer flag to the stack command that decorates the stack traces
by associating each stack frame with its deferred calls.
Reworks proc.next to use this feature instead of using proc.DeferPC,
laying the groundwork to implement #1240.
Implements the function call injection protocol introduced in go 1.11
by https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/109699.
This is only the basic support, see TODO comments in pkg/proc/fncall.go
for a list of missing features.
Updates #119
This pull request makes several changes to delve to allow headless
instancess that are started with the --accept-multiclient flag to
keep running even if there is no connected client. Specifically:
1. Makes a headless instance started with --accept-multiclient quit
after one of the clients sends a Detach request (previously they
would never ever quit, which was a bug).
2. Changes proc/gdbserial and proc/native so that they mark the
Process as exited after they detach, even if they did not kill the
process during detach. This prevents bugs such as #1231 where we
attempt to manipulate a target process after we detached from it.
3. On non --accept-multiclient instances do not kill the target
process unless we started it or the client specifically requests
it (previously if the client did not Detach before closing the
connection we would kill the target process unconditionally)
4. Add a -c option to the quit command that detaches from the
headless server after restarting the target.
5. Change terminal so that, when attached to --accept-multiclient,
pressing ^C will prompt the user to either disconnect from the
server or pause the target process. Also extend the exit prompt to
ask if the user wants to keep the headless server running.
Implements #245, #952, #1159, #1231
Displays the return values of the current function when we step out of
it after executing a step, next or stepout command.
Implementation of this feature is tricky: when the function has
returned the return variables are not in scope anymore. Implementing
this feature requires evaluating variables that are out of scope, using
a stack frame that doesn't exist anymore.
We can't calculate the address of these variables when the
next/step/stepout command is initiated either, because between that
point and the time where the stepout breakpoint is actually hit the
goroutine stack could grow and be moved to a different memory address.
* command/terminal: allow restart to change process args
Add -args flag to "restart" command. For example, "restart -args a b c" will
pass args a b c to the new process.
Add "-c" flag to pass the checkpoint name. This is needed to disambiguate the
checkpoint name and arglist.
Reverted unnecessary changes.
* Applied reviewer comments.
Vendored argv.
Change the syntax of restart. When the target is is in recording mode, it always
interprets the args as a checkpoint. Otherwise, it interprets the args as
commandline args. The flag "-args" is still there, to handle the case in which
the user wants to pass an empty args on restart.
* Add restartargs.go.
Change "restart -args" to "restart -noargs" to clarify that this flag is used to
start a process with an empty arg.
