* 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.

# 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.
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
* 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.
* 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
* scripts: use relative path in gen-cli-docs.go
Makes gen-cli-docs.go work outside GOPATH.
* Documentation,cmd/dlv: tidy up --help output
The description of --log-dest, --log-output and --backend is very
verbose and messes up the output of --help, move it to two "additional
help" subcommands.
* *: Add .cirrus.yml for FreeBSD testing
* *: run go mod tidy
* service/test: prefer 127.0.0.1 over localhost
* dwarf/line: fix TestDebugLinePrologueParser
* vendor: rerun go mod vendor
* Add --continue to continue process on launch/attach
* Add small test of --continue
* regenerate usage docs
* minor cleanup
* Use similar approach to `trace` and connect and detach using a client instance
* back out previous attempt
* regen usage doc
* fix up continue test
* fix TestContinue to properly test --continue
* back out unnecessary changes
* update faq
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.
Implements #1179, #1523
Minidumps are the windows equivalent of unix core files.
This commit updates pkg/proc/core so that it can open and read windows
minidumps.
Updates #794
Adds an --exec flag for the trace subcommand allowing users to specify a
pre-compiled binary to exec and trace.
Also adds a --test flag as a convienance for compiling and tracing a
test binary.
Fixes#1073
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
We occasionally receive bug reports from users of VSCode-go and GoLand.
GoLand has its own way of capturing the packet exchange between itself
and delve but VSCode-go (supposedly) doesn't.
So far this hasn't been a problem since all bug reports were obvious
bugs on the plugin or easy to reproduce without VSCode-go, but it might
be helpful in the future to have a way to log the packet exchange
between dlv and a frontend.
This commit adds a --log-output option to enable logging of all rpc
messages and changes service/rpccommon accordingly.
Go1.11 uses the is_stmt flag of .debug_line to communicate which
assembly instructions are good places for breakpoints, we should
respect this flag.
These changes were introduced by:
* https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/102435/
Additionally when setting next breakpoints ignore all PC addresses that
belong to the same line as the one currently under at the cursor. This
matches the behavior of gdb and avoids stopping multiple times at the
heading line of a for statement with go1.11.
Change: https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/110416 adds the
prologue_end flag to the .debug_line section to communicate the end of
the stack-split prologue. We should use it instead of pattern matching
the disassembly when available.
Fixes#550
type of interfaces
'c7cde8b'.
Previously to 4e177bb99acc511897f9cdbfc6cbc50d92ae4725 it was possible
to use --log without arguments to enable logging, this commit reenables
that use case.
The new functionality of the --log flag moved to a new flag name
--logx.
Fixes#1188
New API version with better backwards compatibility plus mechanism to
select the API version that a headless instance should use.
Adds service/test/cmd/typecheckrpc.go to type check the RPC interface.
Going forward, all documentation should be placed in the Documentation
directory in the root of the project. This switch allows maintainers to
approve updates to documentation before they are committed, as opposed
to the pre-existing wiki which anybody could modify.
Currently the Documentation directory includes docs on building, usage,
and minimal docs around the API. This is just the initial commit, and
documentation will continue to improve over time.
Some changes have been made (and will continue to be made) to `cmd/dlv` to
ensure we can auto-generate documentation for all commands from the
newly provided script `scripts/gen-usage-docs.go`, which can be invoked
via `go run scripts/gen-usage-docs.go`.
Additionally, version has been split into its own package. This was a
bit of housekeeping related to the changes made the `cmd/dlv`.
