Subject: [PATCH 15/16] dyndbg: allow inverted-flag-chars in modflags
Date: Thu,  5 Dec 2019 14:51:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191205215151.421926-17-jim.cromie@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191205215151.421926-1-jim.cromie@gmail.com>

Extend flags modifications to allow [PFMLT_XYZ] inverted flags.
This allows control-queries like:

  #> Q () { echo file inode.c $* > control } # to type less
  #> Q -P	# same as +p
  #> Q +X	# same as -x
  #> Q xyz-P	# same as xyz+p

This allows flags in a callsite to be simultaneously set and cleared,
while still starting with the current flagstate (with +- ops).
Generally, you chose -p or +p 1st, then set or clear flags
accordingly.

  # enable print on callsites with 'xy'; and re-mark with just 'z'
  #> Q xy+pXYz

 Flagsets cannot contain ``xX`` etc, a flag cannot be true and false.
 
-modflags containing upper-case flags is reserved/undefined for now.
-inverted-flags are currently ignored, usage gets trickier if given
-``-pXy``, it should leave x set.
+modflags may contain upper-case flags also, using these lets you
+invert the flag setting implied by the OP; '-pX' means disable
+printing, and mark that callsite with usr-x flag to create a group,
+for optional further manipulation.  Generally, '+p' and '-p' is your
+main choice, and use of inverted flags in modflags is rare.
