25 /* The following is the intended naming schema for frame functions.
26 It isn't 100% consistent, but it is aproaching that. Frame naming
27 schema:
28
29 Prefixes:
30
31 get_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT from the THIS frame (functionaly
32 equivalent to THIS->next->unwind->what)
33
34 frame_unwind_WHAT...(): Unwind THIS frame's WHAT from the NEXT
35 frame.
36
37 frame_unwind_caller_WHAT...(): Unwind WHAT for NEXT stack frame's
38 real caller. Any inlined functions in NEXT's stack frame are
39 skipped. Use these to ignore any potentially inlined functions,
40 e.g. inlined into the first instruction of a library trampoline.
41
42 get_stack_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT for THIS frame, but if THIS is
43 inlined, skip to the containing stack frame.
44
45 put_frame_WHAT...(): Put a value into this frame (unsafe, need to
46 invalidate the frame / regcache afterwards) (better name more
47 strongly hinting at its unsafeness)
48
49 safe_....(): Safer version of various functions, doesn't throw an
50 error (leave this for later?). Returns non-zero / non-NULL if the
51 request succeeds, zero / NULL otherwize.
52
53 Suffixes:
54
55 void /frame/_WHAT(): Read WHAT's value into the buffer parameter.
56
57 ULONGEST /frame/_WHAT_unsigned(): Return an unsigned value (the
58 alternative is *frame_unsigned_WHAT).
59
60 LONGEST /frame/_WHAT_signed(): Return WHAT signed value.
61
62 What:
63
64 /frame/_memory* (frame, coreaddr, len [, buf]): Extract/return
65 *memory.
66
67 /frame/_register* (frame, regnum [, buf]): extract/return register.
68
69 CORE_ADDR /frame/_{pc,sp,...} (frame): Resume address, innner most

344 get_frame_id: A low level frame unique identifier, that consists of
345 both a stack and a function address, that can be used to uniquely
346 identify a frame. This value is determined by the frame's
347 low-level unwinder, the stack part [typically] being the
348 top-of-stack of the previous frame, and the function part being the
349 function's start address. Since the correct identification of a
350 frameless function requires both a stack and function address,
351 the old get_frame_base method was not sufficient.
352
353 get_frame_base_address: get_frame_locals_address:
354 get_frame_args_address: A set of high-level debug-info dependant
355 addresses that fall within the frame. These addresses almost
356 certainly will not match the stack address part of a frame ID (as
357 returned by get_frame_base).

629 that uses the selected block as an additional, but optional, data

632

692 You might think that calls to this function can simply be replaced by a

694
695 Unfortunately, it isn't that easy.
696
697 The relevant code needs to be audited to determine if it is
698 possible (or practical) to instead pass the applicable frame in as a
699 parameter. For instance, DEPRECATED_DO_REGISTERS_INFO() relied on
700 the deprecated_selected_frame global, while its replacement,
701 PRINT_REGISTERS_INFO(), is parameterized with the selected frame.
702 The only real exceptions occur at the edge (in the CLI code) where
703 user commands need to pick up the selected frame before proceeding.
704
705 There are also some functions called with a NULL frame meaning either "the
706 program is not running" or "use the selected frame".
707
708 This is important. GDB is trying to stamp out the hack:
709
710 saved_frame = deprecated_safe_get_selected_frame ();
711 select_frame (...);
712 hack_using_global_selected_frame ();
713 select_frame (saved_frame);
