[intel-pt] Fix existing support in LLDB
Summary:
//reviews.llvm.org/D33035 added in 2017 basic support for intel-pt. I
plan to improve it and use it to support reverse debugging.
I fixed a couple of issues and now this plugin works again:
1. pythonlib needed to be linked against it for the SB framework.
Linking was failing because of this
2. the decoding functionality was broken because it lacked handling for
instruction events. It seems old versions of libipt, the actual decoding
library, didn't require these, but modern version require it (you can
read more here
https://github.com/intel/libipt/blob/master/doc/howto_libipt.md). These
events signal overflows of the internal PT buffer in the CPU,
enable/disable events of tracing, async cpu events, interrupts, etc.
I ended up refactoring a little bit the code to reduce code duplication.
In another diff I'll implement some basic tests.
This is a simple execution of the library:
(lldb) target create "/data/users/wallace/rr-project/a.out"
Current executable set to '/data/users/wallace/rr-project/a.out' (x86_64).
(lldb) plugin load liblldbIntelFeatures.so

Breakpoint 2: where = a.out`main + 50 at test.cpp:14, address = 0x0000000000400824
