Generate names of the concrete types stored inside interface variables
by fully parsing their runtime._type instead of simply using the str
field.
This allows delve to read the contents of an interface variable when
the program imports multiple packages that have the same name. It also
allows delve to correctly interpret some complex anonymous types.
Fixes#455
* tests: update to cope with go1.7 SSA compiler
* de-vendored golang.org/x/debug/dwarf
We need our own tweaked version
* dwarf/debug/dwarf: always use the entry's name attribute
Using the name attribute leads to better type names as well as fixes
inconsistencies between 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7.
* proc: Updated loadInterface to work with go1.7
go1.7 changed the internal representation of types, removing the string
field from runtime._type.
Updated loadInterface to use the new str field.
* 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.
- made GoroutineStacktrace a method of struct G
- made stacktrace a method of StackIterator
- renamed StackIterator to stackIterator
- factored out logic to obtain a stackIterator from a goroutine that's
used by both (*G).Stacktrace and by (*G).UserCurrent
1. A running goroutine is by definition not parked waiting for a
chan recv
2. The FDE end address is intended to be exclusive, the code
interpreted as inclusive and sometimes ended up setting a breakpoint
on a function other than the current one.
Past the maximum recursion depth maps shouldn't be loaded at all,
adding map children and not loading them breaks assumptions in
the prettyprinter.
Fixes#406
Typedefs that resolve to slices are not recorded in DWARF as typedefs
but instead as structs in a way that there is no way to know they
are really slices using debug/dwarf.
Using golang.org/x/debug/dwarf instead this problem is solved and
as a bonus some types are printed with a nicer names: (struct string
→ string, struct []int → []int, etc)
Fixes#356 and #293
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).
Prefetch the entire memory of structs and arrays and cache it instead
of issuing readMemory calls only when we get down to primitive types.
This reduces the number of system calls to ptrace that variables makes.
Improves performance in general, greatly improving it in some
particular cases (involving large structs).

The concrete type of an interface only contains the abbreviated
package name, we must construct a map from package names to package
paths to be able to resolve the concrete type of an interface.
Supported operators:
- All (binary and unary) operators between basic types except <-,
++ and -- (includes & to take the address of an expression)
- Comparison operators between supported compound types
- Typecast of integer constants into pointer types
- struct members
- indexing of arrays, slices and strings
- slicing of arrays, slices and strings
- pointer dereferencing
- true, false and nil constants
Implements #116, #117 and #251
Three locations are returned for goroutines: its current location,
its current location excluding unexported runtime functions and
the location of its go instruction.
The command 'goroutines' takes a new parameter to select which
location to print (defaulting to current location w/o runtime)
Embedded structs are encoded in DWARF as fields with
package-qualified names. They define an anonymous field
on the struct with the non-qualified name, as well as
promoted fields for each field of the embedded struct so
long as these are not shadowed by fields of the containing
struct.
Fixes#220.
g.SP refers to the frame the goroutine was in the last time it was
scheduled out. Instead of calling proc.(*Process).stacktrace directly
we should call proc.(*Process).GoroutineStacktrace that substitutes
fresh values retrieved from thread registers when necessary.
This bug leads to occasional problems with `next`.
Refactored variables.go to separate calculation of a variable's address from
reading its value. This change is useful to implement the 'set' command
as well as the evaluation of more complex expressions (in the future).
