If the user tries to list the contents of a function pointer but
forgets the '*' operator the location lookup will fail and result in a
unhelpful "location not found" error.
Instead if the location lookup fails we should try interpreting the
locspec as if it was preceded by '*'.
When location spec is given and the base can be interpreted either in
source file name or function name, NomalLocationSpec searches both
the source file list and the function symbol list, and selects matching
candidates. Previously, all the matching candidates were added to one
single list regardless whether the candidate was from the source file
list or not. Then, later, Find tries to guess whether the candiate
was a function or a file based on a heuristic, i.e, whether the
candidate is an absolute file path. The heuristic is fragile - since
there is no guarantee that the included source file name is an absolute
path.
Instead, this CL preserves where the candidate was found; file list or
function symbol list. Then, use that info to determine whether the
candidate is a source file name or not.
* Fix various issues detected by megacheck
I've ran honnef.co/go/tools/cmd/megacheck and fixed a few of the
things that came up there.
* Cleanup using Gogland
* proc: refactor BinaryInfo part of proc.Process to own type
The data structures and associated code used by proc.Process
to implement target.BinaryInfo will also be useful to support a
backend for examining core dumps, split this part of proc.Process
to a different type.
* proc: compile support for all executable formats unconditionally
So far we only compiled in support for loading the executable format
supported by the host operating system.
Once support for core files is introduced it is however useful to
support loading in all executable formats, there is no reason why it
shouldn't be possible to examine a linux coredump on windows, or
viceversa.
* proc: bugfix: do not resume threads on detach if killing
* Replace BinaryInfo interface with BinInfo() method returning proc.BinaryInfo
If the location specification matches the name of a function exactly
return that function as a match event if the expression matches other
functions as well.
Without this some functions, like math/rand.Intn are unmatchable.
* service/api: Removed unused fields of service/api.Function
* proc/eval: Set return variable name to input expression
* all: fine-grained control of loadValue for better variable printing
Makes proc.(*Variable).loadValue loading parameters configurable
through one extra argument of type LoadConfig.
This interface is also exposed through the API so clients can control
how much of a variable delve should read.
- Unlike FunctionEntryToFirstLine can skip the prologue on functions
that are defined on a single line, either because they weren't
formatted or because they were autogenerated
- Can skip the prologue on most functions when setting a breakpoint
with the filename:line syntax
Fixes#396
Location specifiers starting with '*' can be followed by any
expression supported by the evaluator.
The expression should evaluate to either an integer (which will be
interpreted as an address) or to a function pointer (which will be
dereferenced to get the function's entry point).
packagename.SomeFunction should match
github.com/someuser/packagename.SomeFunction since the former is
the familiar syntax.
To disambiguate between io.SomeFunction and
github.com/someuser/somepackage/io.SomeFunction specify one extra
slash at the start of the location specifier: /io.SomeFunction.
Fixes Issue #296
Without arguments, `list` displays source around the current context. A
linespec argument can be taken to display source around that location.
Fixes#58
Breakpoints, tracepoints, etc.. take a location spec as input. This
patch improves the expressiveness of that API. It allows:
* Breakpoint at line
* Breakpoint at function (handling package / receiver smoothing)
* Breakpoint at address
* Breakpoint at file:line
* Setting breakpoint based off regexp
