// This file handles generation of the exception frame header that
// gcc's runtime support libraries use to find unwind information at
// runtime.

// The exception frame header starts with four bytes:

// 0: The version number, currently 1.

// 1: The encoding of the pointer to the exception frames.  This can
//    be any DWARF unwind encoding (DW_EH_PE_*).  It is normally a 4
//    byte PC relative offset (DW_EH_PE_pcrel | DW_EH_PE_sdata4).

// 2: The encoding of the count of the number of FDE pointers in the
//    lookup table.  This can be any DWARF unwind encoding, and in
//    particular can be DW_EH_PE_omit if the count is omitted.  It is
//    normally a 4 byte unsigned count (DW_EH_PE_udata4).

// 3: The encoding of the lookup table entries.  Currently gcc's
//    libraries will only support DW_EH_PE_datarel | DW_EH_PE_sdata4,
//    which means that the values are 4 byte offsets from the start of
//    the table.

// The exception frame header is followed by a pointer to the contents
// of the exception frame section (.eh_frame).  This pointer is
// encoded as specified in the byte at offset 1 of the header (i.e.,
// it is normally a 4 byte PC relative offset).

// If there is a lookup table, this is followed by the count of the
// number of FDE pointers, encoded as specified in the byte at offset
// 2 of the header (i.e., normally a 4 byte unsigned integer).

// This is followed by the table, which should start at an 4-byte
// aligned address in memory.  Each entry in the table is 8 bytes.
// Each entry represents an FDE.  The first four bytes of each entry
// are an offset to the starting PC for the FDE.  The last four bytes
// of each entry are an offset to the FDE data.  The offsets are from
// the start of the exception frame header information.  The entries
// are in sorted order by starting PC.

// FIXME: We currently always generate an empty exception frame
// header.
