LLDB is the debugger from the LLVM family of projects. + Originally developed for Mac OS X, it now also supports &os;, + NetBSD, Linux, Android, and Windows. It builds on existing + components in the larger LLVM project, for example using Clang's + expression parser and LLVM's disassembler.

+ +

LLDB in the &os; base system was upgraded to version 3.7.0 + as part of the Clang and LLVM upgrade, and it will similarly be + upgraded again, to 3.8.0 for &os; 11.0-RELEASE.

+ +

LLDB is now enabled by default on the amd64 and arm64 platforms. + It is now a functional basic debugger on arm64, after a number of + fixes were made in the last quarter to both LLDB and the + &os; kernel.

+ + + + The FreeBSD Foundation + + + + +

Rework the LLDB build to use LLVM and Clang shared libraries.

+ + + +

Port a remote debugging stub to &os;.

+ + + +

Add support for local and core file kernel debugging.

+ + + +

Improve support on architectures other than amd64 and arm64.
