Hi lldb-dev,
The last few months, I was implementing a LLDB OS Python plug-in. It seems
that there are functionality that is duplicated across many OS plug-ins. I
think we can change that by, for example, upstreaming to LLDB an OS python
plug-in which can be used by all clients and may contain a l
Gentle ping.

Hi lldb-dev,
Currently I'm working on an OS plug-in for multiple operating systems and
architectures, during my work, I noted a few moments I want to discuss with
the community.
1) Adding RegisterContext to SB API:
if you want your OS plug-in to support multiple architectures you need

Hi lldb-dev,
I have a SBValue created via
SBTarget.CreateValueFromExpression('some_name', expr).
If the expression looks like '(some_type *) addr', then GetName returns
'some_name' as expected, but when I do Dereference this value, GetName
returns '*some_name'.
So, is it a conventional behavior o
simple example showing the failure and I’ll have a

Hi lldb-dev,
I work on a custom implementation of OperatingSystem plugin using Python
and SB API. I’m trying to fetch information about some variables from the
target into the plugin, to do that I’m using the following Python code:
ready_tasks = self._target.FindGlobalVariables(‘pxReadyTasksLists

Hi lldb-dev,
Could someone explain me why do we use python (OperatingSystemPython) to
describe OS objects like threads? What are the advantages of such an
approach in comparison to C++ used in Platform plugin for example? IMO, the
OperatingSystem plugin could be more like the Platform one, it coul
I found out that there will not be “out-of-the-box” threads/tasks support
since the lldb doesn’t know anything about thread’s structure. It seems
that to have it works I need to implement the OperatingSystem plugin for
the specific OS. Is it right? If yes, is it enough?

Hi lldb-dev,
As part of my Bachelor's thesis, I'm going to add a new platform to LLDB
(FreeRTOS in my case) to perform a kernel debugging. Is there a
documentation about adding a new platform?
As far as I know, my case is similar to PlatformDarwinKernel, so I need to
do the similar things:
1) add
l things like std::mutex, etc.

Hi lldb-dev,
I'm a senior student at Saint Petersburg State University. The one of my
possible diploma themes is "OS Awareness in LLDB". Generally, the OS
awareness extends a debugger to provide a representation of the OS threads
- or tasks - and other relevant data structures, typically semaphore
