fails, we continue to the next iteration without advancing to the next

We're freeing path and then using it to report an error.
This has some weird knock-on effects. Since we freed the path, the error
message contains garbage. So, PyErr_SetString() can't decode it as a
UTF-8 string. The end result is a MissingDebugInfoError with no message.
Fix it by creating the error before freeing the path.

min() and max() from the Linux kernel go through the trouble of
resulting in a constant expression if the arguments are constant
expressions, but they can't be used outside of a function due to their
use of ({ }). This means that they can't be used for, e.g., enumerators
or global arrays. Let's simplify min() and max() and instead add
explicit min_iconst() and max_iconst() macros that can be used
everywhere that an integer constant expression is required. We can then
use it in hash_table.h. While we're here, let's split these into their
own header file and document them better.

I recently hit a couple of CI failures caused by relying on transitive
includes that weren't always present. include-what-you-use is a
Clang-based tool that helps with this. It's a bit finicky and noisy, so
this adds scripts/iwyu.py to make running it more convenient (but not
reliable enough to automate it in Travis).
This cleans up all reasonable include-what-you-use warnings and

Debugging information tracking is currently in two places: drgn_program
finds debugging information, and drgn_dwarf_index stores it. Both of
these responsibilities make more sense as part of drgn_debug_info, so
let's move them there. This prepares us to track extra debugging
information that isn't pertinent to indexing.
This also reworks a couple of details of loading debugging information:
- drgn_dwarf_module and drgn_dwfl_module_userdata are consolidated into
a single structure, drgn_debug_info_module.
- The first pass of DWARF indexing now happens in parallel with reading
compilation units (by using OpenMP tasks).

DWARF represents namespaces with DW_TAG_namespace DIEs. Add these to the

There are a couple of related ways that we can cause undefined behavior
when parsing a malformed DWARF or depmod index file:
1. There are several places where we increment the cursor to skip past
some data. It is undefined behavior if the result points out of
bounds of the data, even if we don't attempt to dereference it.
2. read_in_bounds() checks that ptr <= end. This pointer comparison is
only defined if ptr and end both point to elements of the same array
object or one past the last element. If ptr has gone past end, then
this comparison is likely undefined anyways.
Fix it by adding a helper to skip past data with bounds checking. Then,
all of the helpers can assume that ptr <= end and maintain that
invariant. while we're here and auditing all of the call sites, let's
clean up the API and rename it from read_foo() to the less generic
mread_foo().

Now that we can handle a DW_AT_specification that references another
compilation unit, add support for DW_FORM_ref_addr.
Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@osandov.com>
We currently handle DIEs with a DW_AT_specification attribute by parsing
the corresponding declaration to get the name and inserting the DIE as
usual. This has a couple of problems:
1. It only works if DW_AT_specification refers to the same compilation
unit, which is true for DW_FORM_ref{1,2,4,8,_udata}, but not
DW_FORM_ref_addr. As a result, drgn doesn't support the latter.
2. It assumes that the DIE with DW_AT_specification is in the correct
"scope". Unfortunately, this is not true for g++: for a variable
definition in a C++ namespace, it generates a DIE with
DW_AT_declaration as a child of the DW_TAG_namespace DIE and a DIE
which refers to the declaration with DW_AT_specification _outside_ of
the DW_TAG_namespace as a child of the DW_TAG_compilation_unit DIE.
Supporting both of these cases requires reworking how we handle
DW_AT_specification. This commit takes an approach of parsing the DWARF
data in two passes: the first pass reads the abbrevation and file name
tables and builds a map of instances of DW_AT_specification; the second
pass indexes DIEs as before, but ignores DIEs with DW_AT_specification
and handles DIEs with DW_AT_declaration by looking them up in the map
built by the first pass.
This approach is a 10-20% regression in indexing time in the benchmarks
I ran. Thankfully, it is not 100% slower for a couple of reasons. The
first is that the two passes are simpler than the original combined
pass. The second is that a decent part of the indexing time is spent
faulting in the mapped debugging information, which only needs to happen
once (even if the file is cached, minor page faults add non-negligible
overhead).
This doesn't handle DW_AT_specification "chains" yet, but neither did
the original code. If it is necessary, it shouldn't be too difficult to
add.

I originally copied the sections into each compilation unit to avoid a

We currently assume that if DW_AT_declaration is present, it is true.

Black was recently changed to treat a trailing comma as an indicator to

I originally envisioned types as dumb descriptors. This mostly works for
C because in C, types are fairly simple. However, even then the
drgn_program_member_info() API is awkward. You should be able to look up
a member directly from a type, but we need the program for caching
purposes. This has also held me back from adding offsetof() or
has_member() APIs.
Things get even messier with C++. C++ template parameters can be objects
(e.g., template <int N>). Such parameters would best be represented by a
drgn object, which we need a drgn program for. Static members are a
similar case.
So, let's reimagine types as being owned by a program. This has a few
parts:
1. In libdrgn, simple types are now created by factory functions,
drgn_foo_type_create().
2. To handle their variable length fields, compound types, enum types,
and function types are constructed with a "builder" API.
3. Simple types are deduplicated.
4. The Python type factory functions are replaced by methods of the
Program class.
5. While we're changing the API, the parameters to pointer_type() and
array_type() are reordered to be more logical (and to allow
pointer_type() to take a default size of None for the program's
default pointer size).
6. Likewise, the type factory methods take qualifiers as a keyword
argument only.
A big part of this change is updating the tests and splitting up large
test cases into smaller ones in a few places.

Program::objects is used to store references to objects that must stay
alive while the Program is alive. It is currently a PyDict where the
keys are the object addresses as PyLong and the values are the objects
themselves. This has two problems:
1. Allocating the key as a full object is obviously wasteful.
2. PyDict doesn't have an API for reserving capacity ahead of time,
which we want for an upcoming change.
Both of these are easily fixed by using our own hash table.
