  32 DESCRIPTION
  33         Each port of BFD to a different machine requires the creation
  34         of a target back end. All the back end provides to the root
  35         part of BFD is a structure containing pointers to functions
  36         which perform certain low level operations on files. BFD
  37         translates the applications's requests through a pointer into
  38         calls to the back end routines.
  39
  40         When a file is opened with <<bfd_openr>>, its format and
  41         target are unknown. BFD uses various mechanisms to determine
  42         how to interpret the file. The operations performed are:
  43
  44         o Create a BFD by calling the internal routine
  45         <<_bfd_new_bfd>>, then call <<bfd_find_target>> with the
  46         target string supplied to <<bfd_openr>> and the new BFD pointer.
  47
  48         o If a null target string was provided to <<bfd_find_target>>,
  49         look up the environment variable <<GNUTARGET>> and use
  50         that as the target string.
  51
  52         o If the target string is still <<NULL>>, or the target string is
  53         <<default>>, then use the first item in the target vector
  54         as the target type, and set <<target_defaulted>> in the BFD to
  55         cause <<bfd_check_format>> to loop through all the targets.
  56         @xref{bfd_target}.  @xref{Formats}.
  57
  58         o Otherwise, inspect the elements in the target vector
  59         one by one, until a match on target name is found. When found,
  60         use it.
  61
  62         o Otherwise return the error <<bfd_error_invalid_target>> to
  63         <<bfd_openr>>.
  64
  65         o <<bfd_openr>> attempts to open the file using
  66         <<bfd_open_file>>, and returns the BFD.
  67
  68         Once the BFD has been opened and the target selected, the file
  69         format may be determined. This is done by calling
  70         <<bfd_check_format>> on the BFD with a suggested format.
  71         If <<target_defaulted>> has been set, each possible target
  72         type is tried to see if it recognizes the specified format.
  73         <<bfd_check_format>> returns <<TRUE>> when the caller guesses right.

  85         bfd_target
  86
  87 DESCRIPTION
  88         This structure contains everything that BFD knows about a
  89         target. It includes things like its byte order, name, and which
  90         routines to call to do various operations.
  91
  92         Every BFD points to a target structure with its <<xvec>>
  93         member.
  94
  95         The macros below are used to dispatch to functions through the
  96         <<bfd_target>> vector. They are used in a number of macros further
  97         down in @file{bfd.h}, and are also used when calling various
  98         routines by hand inside the BFD implementation.  The @var{arglist}
  99         argument must be parenthesized; it contains all the arguments
 100         to the called function.
 101
 102         They make the documentation (more) unpleasant to read, so if
 103         someone wants to fix this and not break the above, please do.
 104
 105 .#define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
 106 .  ((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist)
 107 .
 108 .#ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
 109 .#undef BFD_SEND
 110 .#define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \

 112 .    ((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist) : \
 113 .    (bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
 114 .#endif
 115
 116         For operations which index on the BFD format:
 117
 118 .#define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
 119 .  (((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist)
 120 .
 121 .#ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
 122 .#undef BFD_SEND_FMT
 123 .#define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
 124 .  (((bfd) && (bfd)->xvec && (bfd)->xvec->message) ? \
 125 .   (((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist) : \
 126 .   (bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
 127 .#endif
 128 .
 129         This is the structure which defines the type of BFD this is.  The
 130         <<xvec>> member of the struct <<bfd>> itself points here.  Each
 131         module that implements access to a different target under BFD,
 132         defines one of these.
 133
 134         FIXME, these names should be rationalised with the names of
 135         the entry points which call them. Too bad we can't have one
 136         macro to define them both!

1231         Return a pointer to the transfer vector for the object target

1235         Passing in the string "default" or setting the environment
1236         variable to "default" will cause the first entry in the target
1237         list to be returned, and "target_defaulted" will be set in the
1238         BFD.  This causes <<bfd_check_format>> to loop over all the
1239         targets to find the one that matches the file being read.
