It turns out that Tutorial=0 means "auto" and -1 means "off". With auto tutorials, the hphpd.hdf file got updated and test behavior got flaky. Even worse, the non ASCII characters in the tutorial output broke the test runner in a way that made it look like tests passed when you put up a differential, only to fail in contbuild.
When a test fails hphp/test/run runs a regular expression over the test output and returns it to the python scripts that is running the tests on the continuous build machine. These scripts crash if presented with output that is not printable ASCII, which makes it very difficult to figure out why the test is failing. This change modifies hphp/test/run to first encode the test output with quoted_printable_encode before returning it to the python scripts.
Currently a breakpoint specified as relativefilepath:lineno will match only if the relative file path is a simple file name or if sandbox root + relative file path is an exact match. This is now generalized so that matching occurs if the relative file path is a suffix (path) of the absolute path of the execution location.
The debugger client now accepts feedback from the the debugger server about whether a breakpoint can be hit, absent further loads of files, classes or functions.
There was a similar-but-different event loop used when receiving command results from the server which was close, but not quite right. Unified it with the main event loop to ensure that all error cases are handled properly when we put up a prompt at a nested interrupt, like when hitting a breakpoint during an eval. The event loop is now shared, with a few different "kinds" to control some of the special needs of the loop when executed from a command. Most commands don't cause the server to run more PHP, so they don't change the machine state or cause more interrupts. But some do (Eval and Print) and certainly the top-level loop does, too. Made sure to throw a protocol error if any command causes this to happen when we don't expect it.
Small stepping, which is stepping over sub-expressions (kinda), worked but was a little goofy. The mode was set on the client, passed over with control flow commands, placed on the execution context, then retrieved from there and used by those same flow commands. Removed the execution context part of it, since it was useless, and factored grabbing the offsets into the flow cmds where they belong instead of doing it all the time.
The run cmd also had some notion of small stepping, but you'll note it was never sent over the wire. Nuked that, since it never mattered anyway.
We had two similar-but-different functions for getting a notification from the VM about an exception. Cleaned that up by using the proper one for a thrown exception where appropriate, and moving the old one into a hook (like the other VM->debugger hooks) specifically for error messages.
There were multiple issues with flow control when exceptions occur. Fixed these by ditching the reliance on the exception thrown interrupt and introduce an exception handler interrupt, which indicates control is about to pass to a catch clause. This gives us much better insight into how execution is flowing and how we might need to adjust an in-flight stepping operation.
