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.
* dwarf/line: implement DW_LNE_set_discriminator
We don't use the discriminator field in any way but we need to at least
parse it to support debub_line programs that use it.
* dwarf/line: support parsing DWARF4 debug_line sections
There is an extra field maximum_operations_per_instruction that is used
for VLIW CPUs. We don't support this feature but we have to at least
parse the field to not crash.
* gdbserial/gdbserver: Dynamically resolve debugserver binary
Instead of hardcoding the absolute path to the Command Line
Tools (CLT) binary, will attempt to resolve the path at the
$PATH, or at the Xcode bundle. If none are available, will
fallback to the default CLT location.

* gdbserial/gdbserver: Log outgoing executed commands
Add logging to capture the executable and associated arguments used
in LLDBLaunch and LLDBAttach

* gdbserial/gdbserver: Add unit tests for helper function
Define unit tests for helper function. Setup each test to temporarily make
PATH variable, and file system changes, and subsequently revert them.

Lazily obtain absolute path to avoid increasing load times.
Remove flaky tests.

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
The test was always flaky because we can't fully control the state of
all goroutines in the target program, Go 1.14's asynchronous preemption
exacerbates the problem.
See for example:
https://travis-ci.com/github/go-delve/delve/jobs/302407282
This commit relaxes the checks made by the test to avoid irrelevante
flakiness.
Under some circumstances (methods with non-pointer receivers or from
embedded fields called through an interface) the compiler will
autogenerate wrapper functions.
This commit changes next, step and stepout to skip all autogenerated
wrappers.
Fixes#1908
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
Reset the timer once we start executing the code paths we actually care
to measure, since the setup and continue steps can be relatively
expensive.
Also, disable recording on benchmarks. This seems less useful, and also
cuts out a lot of noise when benchmarks are run.
When switching to the goroutine stack the stack iterator registers
might not have any entry for the BP register, make sure to add it
instead of just trying to change it.
Instead of rescanning debug_info every time we want to read a function
(either to find inlined calls or its variables) cache the tree of
dwarf.Entry that we would generate and use that.

Updates #1549
Add logging for Issue #1927. The bug happens during the call to
api.ConvertThread, returning an error will not suffice since
ConvertThread will not surface it.
Updates #1927
Inserts a call to ClearAllGCache into stepInstructionOut so that cached
goroutine state is not inconsistent after an injected function call.\
Fixes#1925
Autogenerates .travis.yml configuration using the contents of
pkg/goversion/compat.go.
Also:
- excludes testing of windows/amd64/tip and linux/arm64/tip (Travis-CI
can't get Go at tip for those combinations).
- Removes Go 1.11 from pkg/goversion/compat.go which we don't test
anymore.
If we call one expression which is the fake method of meanless
string, `delve` will panic. Strengthen the inspection of boundary
conditions when supporting function calls on non-struct types.
Update: #1871
* *: Fix go vet struct complaints
* *: Fix struct vet issue on linux
* *: Ignore proc/native in go vet check
We have to do some unsafe pointer manipulation that will never make go
vet happy within the proc/native package. Ignore it for runs of go vet.
* *: Remove appveyor, use travis windows support
* cmd/dlv: Update TestOutput for Travis on Windows
* cmd/dlv: Skip TestGeneratedDoc in Travis on Windows
* Reduce number of jobs in matrix
We only really want to test the full arch/go matrix on Linux.
For every other os/arch/go combination, only run Go tip and the latest
supported version.
* 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
