| # LLDB Platform Packets |
| |
| This is a list of the packets that an lldb platform server |
| needs to implement for the lldb testsuite to be run on a remote |
| target device/system. |
| |
| These are almost all lldb extensions to the gdb-remote serial |
| protocol. Many of the `vFile:` packets are also described in the "Host |
| I/O Packets" detailed in the gdb-remote protocol documentation, |
| although the lldb platform extensions include packets that are not |
| defined there (`vFile:size:`, `vFile:mode:`, `vFile:symlink`, `vFile:chmod:`). |
| |
| Most importantly, the flags that LLDB passes to `vFile:open:` are |
| incompatible with the flags that GDB specifies. |
| |
| * [QSetWorkingDir](./lldbgdbremote.md#qsetworkingdir-ascii-hex-path) |
| * [QStartNoAckMode](./lldbgdbremote.md#qstartnoackmode) |
| * [qGetWorkingDir](./lldbgdbremote.md#qgetworkingdir) |
| * [qHostInfo](./lldbgdbremote.md#qhostinfo) |
| * [qKillSpawnedProcess](./lldbgdbremote.md#qkillspawnedprocess-platform-extension) |
| * [qLaunchGDBServer](./lldbgdbremote.md#qlaunchgdbserver-platform-extension) |
| * [qModuleInfo](./lldbgdbremote.md#qmoduleinfo-module-path-arch-triple) |
| * [qPathComplete](./lldbgdbremote.md#qpathcomplete-platform-extension) |
| * [qPlatform_mkdir](./lldbgdbremote.md#qplatform-mkdir) |
| * [qPlatform_shell](./lldbgdbremote.md#qplatform-shell) |
| * [qProcessInfo](./lldbgdbremote.md#qprocessinfo) |
| * The lldb test suite currently only uses `name_match:equals` and the no-criteria mode to list every process. |
| * [qProcessInfoPID](./lldbgdbremote.md#qprocessinfopid-pid-platform-extension) |
| * It is likely that you only need to support the `pid` and `name` fields. |
| * [vFile:chmod](./lldbgdbremote.md#vfile-chmod-qplatform-chmod) |
| * [vFile:close](./lldbgdbremote.md#vfile-close) |
| * [vFile:mode](./lldbgdbremote.md#vfile-mode) |
| * [vFile:open](./lldbgdbremote.md#vfile-open) |
| * [vFile:pread](./lldbgdbremote.md#vfile-pread) |
| * [vFile:pwrite](./lldbgdbremote.md#vfile-pwrite) |
| * [vFile:size](./lldbgdbremote.md#vfile-size) |
| * [vFile:symlink](./lldbgdbremote.md#vfile-symlink) |
| * [vFile:unlink](./lldbgdbremote.md#vfile-unlink) |
| |
| The remote platform must be able to launch processes so that debugserver |
| can attach to them. This requires the following packets in addition to the |
| previous list: |
| * [A](./lldbgdbremote.md#a-launch-args-packet) |
| * [QEnvironment](./lldbgdbremote.md#qenvironment-name-value) |
| * [QEnvironmentHexEncoded](./lldbgdbremote.md#qenvironmenthexencoded-hex-encoding-name-value) |
| * [QSetDetatchOnError](./lldbgdbremote.md#qsetdetachonerror) |
| * [QSetDisableASLR](./lldbgdbremote.md#qsetdisableaslr-bool) |
| * [QSetSTDIN / QSetSTDOUT / QSetSTDERR](./lldbgdbremote.md#qsetstdin-ascii-hex-path-qsetstdout-ascii-hex-path-qsetstderr-ascii-hex-path) (all 3) |
| * [qLaunchSuccess](./lldbgdbremote.md#qlaunchsuccess) |
