[lldb] Fix evaluating expressions without JIT in an object context (#145599)
If a server does not support allocating memory in an inferior process or
when debugging a core file, evaluating an expression in the context of a
value object results in an error:
```
error: <lldb wrapper prefix>:43:1: use of undeclared identifier '$__lldb_class'
43 | $__lldb_class::$__lldb_expr(void *$__lldb_arg)
| ^
```
Such expressions require a live address to be stored in the value
object. However, `EntityResultVariable::Dematerialize()` only sets
`ret->m_live_sp` if JIT is available, even if the address points to the
process memory and no custom allocations were made. Similarly,
`EntityPersistentVariable::Dematerialize()` tries to deallocate memory
based on the same check, resulting in an error if the memory was not
previously allocated in `EntityPersistentVariable::Materialize()`.
As an unintended bonus, the patch also fixes a FIXME case in
`TestCxxChar8_t.py`.Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
