We're shipping a rust-enabled lldb, but the "lldb" executable is not
installed into the "bin" directory by rustup. See the discussion in
rust-lang/rustup#1492 for
background on this decision. There, we agreed to have rust-lldb
prefer the rust-enabled lldb if it is installed. This patch changes
rust-lldb to look in the sysroot and use the lldb found there, if any.

See issue #48168

Nice! In light of #53955 and #53813 though we may actually want to switch where lldb is located as well. Does LLDB link dynamically to the LLVM shared object? If so, it may no longer work if installed at $sysroot/bin I think?

lldb is just built as part of the overall llvm toolchain build, so it does whatever that does.

I think it would be reasonable if #53955 made the same change for lldb.

Actually, I wonder how rust-lldb will know which target to choose.

Ah, I see that dist.rs talks in terms of targets but the PR talked in terms of host. So that explains one thing, though I still am not sure this info is available to the script.

You can get the host from rustc -Vv.

Thanks @cuviper - I was looking at --print and didn't know about that one.

BTW I am waiting for nightly to catch up so I can see if it does make sense to make the change. Currently things are out of sync; and I didn't see a patch to move the LLVM .so.

Sure thing!

We're shipping a rust-enabled lldb, but the "lldb" executable is not
installed into the "bin" directory by rustup.  See the discussion in
rust-lang/rustup#1492 for
background on this decision.  There, we agreed to have rust-lldb
prefer the rust-enabled lldb if it is installed.

This patch changes dist.rs to put lldb into rustlib, following what
was done for the other LLVM tools in rust-lang#53955, and then fixes rust-lldb
to prefer that lldb, if it exists.

In addition to what the commit message says, this one changes rust-lldb to skip the version check if we've decided to use the rust-enabled lldb, as it's not necessary in that case. The previous patch could sometimes emit an invalid warning if you had an old lldb in your path and the script actually decided to use the rust lldb.
