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
c7ce8faa
DJ
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
edb3359d
DJ
42 get_stack_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT for THIS frame, but if THIS is
43 inlined, skip to the containing stack frame.
44
f0e7d0e8
AC
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
304396fb
AC
50 error (leave this for later?). Returns non-zero / non-NULL if the
51 request succeeds, zero / NULL otherwize.
f0e7d0e8
AC
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
70 stack *address, ...

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

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