feature, either build the JIT in debug mode to enable it by default or pass -jit-emit-debug to lli. Right now, the only debug information that this communicates to GDB is call frame information, since it's already being generated to support exceptions in the JIT. Eventually, when DWARF generation isn't tied so tightly to AsmPrinter, it will be easy to push that information to GDB through this interface. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of how the feature works: - The JIT generates the machine code and DWARF call frame info (.eh_frame/.debug_frame) for a function into memory. - The JIT copies that info into an in-memory ELF file with a symbol for the function. - The JIT creates a code entry pointing to the ELF buffer and adds it to a linked list hanging off of a global descriptor at a special symbol that GDB knows about. - The JIT calls a function marked noinline that GDB knows about and has put an internal breakpoint in. - GDB catches the breakpoint and reads the global descriptor to look for new code. - When sees there is new code, it reads the ELF from the inferior's memory and adds it to itself as an object file. - The JIT continues, and the next time we stop the program, we are able to produce a proper backtrace. Consider running the following program through the JIT: #include <stdio.h> void baz(short z) { long w = z + 1; printf("%d, %x\n", w, *((int*)NULL)); // SEGFAULT here } void bar(short y) { int z = y + 1; baz(z); } void foo(char x) { short y = x + 1; bar(y); } int main(int argc, char** argv) { char x = 1; foo(x); } Here is a backtrace before this patch: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

1. Change some "\n" -> '\n'. 2. eliminte some std::string's by using raw_ostream::indent. 3. move a bunch of code out of the main arg parser routine into a new static HandlePrefixedOrGroupedOption function. 4. Greatly simplify the implementation of getOptionPred, and make it avoid splitting prefix options at = when that doesn't match a non-prefix option. llvm-svn: 82362
