So just a little terminology to make things clear. lldb has "breakpoints"
which are the object you actually make when you do "break set". Then each
breakpoint can have a number of "breakpoint locations" which are the places
that the breakpoint specification resolved to in your program. Finally, there
are "breakpoint sites" which are places that we actually insert trap
instructions to implement the breakpoint locations. Note that you could have
many breakpoint locations with the same address, so all those locations would
share one site. Having the sites as a separate list is very convenient
internally, since they can be stored in a nice address sorted list, and it
makes the lookup from "stop address" to breakpoint efficient.
Anyway, so the "breakpoint site 3" output you are seeing generally only happens
when we hit a breakpoint site but by the time we get to reporting it we can't
find the breakpoint location corresponding to that site (maybe the breakpoint
got deleted in the process of stopping?)
You can try turning on the lldb log for breakpoints to see what this breakpoint
actually is:
(lldb) log enable lldb breakpoint
Note also, lldb sets some breakpoints for its own purposes (for instance
breakpoints on the dyld load notification routine so we can find out when new
shared libraries get loaded.) That particular breakpoint - which you would
have hit while loading your dylib - is set to auto-continue without informing
the upper layers of lldb that it had been hit. So that shouldn't have
interrupted the load command. Of course something might be wrong that is
defeating that...
