DebugAgent

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

AttachTo

Use the given filter to attach to any existing or subsequently created components. This method will return the number of matches that were present at the time of calling this method. All attached processes will be detached when this agent is destroyed.

|filter| will be inspected for validity, with corresponding errors returned. If the filter is invalid, no attaches will occur and the filter will not be installed.

|num_matches| will contain the number of matches that were found immediately upon filter installation if there was no error, that is, the number of processes immediately within (or recursively in this realm, if the option is specified) this component's corresponding job. Note that filters may be installed before any components are actually resolved and matched, so this number may be 0. This return value may be safely ignored.

Invalid filters will return an error, see Filter above for details on how to construct a filter.

Connect

Hand the DebugAgent a socket that connects it to the debugger. This will return ZX_ERR_ALREADY_BOUND if a connection already exists. When the socket is closed, the DebugAgent will exit.

Request

NameType
socket handle<socket>

Response

NameType
payload DebugAgent_Connect_Result

GetAttachedProcesses

Iterator over all processes that this agent is attached to. Note this is not the same as the set of installed filters, but rather the set of filters that matched and were later successfully attached.

Added: HEAD

Request

NameType
iterator server_end:AttachedProcessIterator

GetMinidumps

Collect minidumps for all attached processes. |options| may contain a filter to reduce the number of minidumps that are yielded by the iterator.

Added: HEAD

Request

NameType
options MinidumpOptions
iterator server_end:MinidumpIterator

Response

NameType
payload DebugAgent_GetMinidumps_Result

GetProcessInfo

The given server_end of the iterator will iterate over all threads, of all attached processes. The options parameter may be passed to filter the already attached processes and to express interest in what should be yielded by the iterator. Including a filter is recommended if DebugAgent is attached to a large number of processes. Note that this filter will not cause any new processes to be attached and will not be saved after this method returns. It is purely to reduce the bounds of the iterator. The threads will be suspended for the duration of information capture, which could be interrupted by other system processes, see |ProcessInfoIterator| for an example.

GetAgents

Iterator over all DebugAgent instances.

Request

NameType
iterator server_end:AgentIterator

Launch

Launch a new instance of DebugAgent listening on |agent|. The DebugAgent will exit upon closing the corresponding client_end of this channel. Clients must not close the channel until the debugging session is completed.

MinidumpIterator

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

An iterator that collects and returns a minidump for a set of processes. An empty VMO will be returned when there are no more processes.

Added: HEAD

Request

<EMPTY>

Response

NameType
payload MinidumpIterator_GetNext_Result

ProcessInfoIterator

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

Collects details from all threads of all attached processes. The exact details that are yielded from the iterator are controlled via ThreadDetailsInterest passed to |GetProcessInfo|. The iterator will yield an empty vector after all attached process' threads have been iterated. It is an error if there are no processes supplied to this iterator, which could be from too restrictive of a filter passed to |GetProcessInfo| or DebugAgent is not attached to anything.

This iteration is inherently racy, there is no way for DebugAgent to prevent other system entities from causing a process or thread to disappear while we are traversing them, so it's possible for this iterator to return errors when those threads or processes have been destroyed. These are not fatal errors, but can happen multiple times in one iteration.

For example, take this process structure, and assume DebugAgent is attached to everything:

pr: "process-1" 1234 t: "pr1234-t1" 1 t: "pr1234-t2" 2 pr: "process-2" 2345 t: "pr2345-t1" 3

If "process-1" is killed after "pr1234-t1" is yielded, but before "pr1234-t2" is yielded, a THREAD_GONE error will be returned on the next |GetNext| call. Calling |GetNext| again will yield "pr2345-t1".

Added: HEAD

GetNext

Collects information about the next attached thread. There is no guarantee of order of processes, but all threads from a given process will be iterated before another process's threads.

Filter

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

A filter that will apply to processes and components running now and in the future. Any component or process that matches the given pattern and type will be attached, thereafter allowing clients to query information about the program(s). A valid filter will always contain a non-empty pattern string, and a FilterType to discern what to compare the pattern against. Additional options may be specified via FilterOptions.

Added: HEAD

FieldTypeDescriptionDefault
pattern string

A string pattern to be matched against the given |type|. An empty pattern will result in a NO_PATTERN error.

ENUMS

FilterError flexible

Type: uint32

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

Added: HEAD

NameValueDescription
1

Indicates that there was no pattern given in the filter.

2

FilterType was either unspecified or an otherwise unknown type to this agent.

3

The set of options given in FilterOptions was not valid.

FilterType flexible

Type: uint8

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

Added: HEAD

NameValueDescription
0

Performs an exact match against a component's URL, sans hash values. e.g. pattern fuchsia-pkg://fuchsia.com/package#meta/component.cm will match fuchsia-pkg://fuchsia.com/package?hash=1234abcd#meta/component.cm.

1

Performs an exact match against a component's full moniker.

2

Matches any component moniker that includes the pattern as a prefix.

3

Matches any component moniker that includes the pattern as a suffix.

MinidumpError flexible

Type: uint32

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

Added: HEAD

NameValueDescription
1

No processes were yielded to the iterator. This could mean that the supplied filter did not match any attached processes, or DebugAgent is not attached to any processes.

2

An error occurred while generating the minidump. These errors are opaque to DebugAgent.

ProcessInfoError flexible

Type: uint32

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

Added: HEAD

NameValueDescription
1

There were no attached processes to iterate over.

2

A process has died such that the iterator is invalid.

3

A process's threads have been mutated such that the iterator is invalid.

TABLES

DebugAgentOnFatalExceptionRequest

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

OrdinalFieldTypeDescription
thread zx/Koid

The faulting thread's koid.

backtrace string

A stack trace from the faulting thread in symbolizer markup format.

FilterOptions

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

Added: HEAD

OrdinalFieldTypeDescription
recursive bool

Whether or not to also match all child components in the matching component's realm. When true, the matching component's full moniker will be assumed to be the root of the realm, and all children components will be launched within this realm. This is mutually exclusive with |job_only|. If both are specified, a FilterError will be returned.

job_only bool

Whether or not to attach directly to the parent job of the process matching the filter. When true, the parent job's standard exception channel will be bound, rather than the exception channel of the process. See https://fuchsia.dev/fuchsia-src/concepts/kernel/exceptions#exception_channel_types for more details. Note that this is not the same as the "Debugger" exception channel, which only delivers process starting "exceptions" but not architectural exceptions. Note that this is mutually exclusive with |recursive|. If both are specified, a FilterError will be returned.

GetProcessInfoOptions

Defined in fuchsia.debugger/debug_agent.fidl

Added: HEAD

OrdinalFieldTypeDescription
filter Filter

A filter that will reduce the number of processes that are iterated over. This will not install any new filters and will not cause new processes to be attached. Instead, this filter will be applied to already attached processes, which can be useful if there are many processes currently attached.

interest ThreadDetailsInterest

Clients should specify the data they are interested in being yielded from the iterator here. Any unspecified fields will be assumed to be false. See ThreadDetailsInterest for descriptions of possible data.
