You don't use the callback directly, you actually tell the breakpoint that is
should call a python function:
(lldb) breakpoint command add -F my_module.breakpoint_hit
The signature for the python callback is:
def breakpoint_callback(frame, bp_loc, dict):
# Your code goes here
So you don't get the specify a baton for the callback, but you can get python
to be called when a breakpoint does get hit. You can always make a global
variable (dictionary) that can track which breakpoints map to which baton
("self" in your case) and then you could manually call your other functions.
