  24 /* It's sometimes useful to be able to debug programs that you can't
  25    really stop for more than a fraction of a second.  To this end, the
  26    user can specify a tracepoint (like a breakpoint, but you don't
  27    stop at it), and specify a bunch of expressions to record the
  28    values of when that tracepoint is reached.  As the program runs,
  29    GDB collects the values.  At any point (possibly while values are
  30    still being collected), the user can display the collected values.
  31
  32    This is used with remote debugging; we don't really support it on
  33    native configurations.
  34
  35    This means that expressions are being evaluated by the remote agent,
  36    which doesn't have any access to the symbol table information, and
  37    needs to be small and simple.
  38
  39    The agent_expr routines and datatypes are a bytecode language
  40    designed to be executed by the agent.  Agent expressions work in
  41    terms of fixed-width values, operators, memory references, and
  42    register references.  You can evaluate a agent expression just given
  43    a bunch of memory and register values to sniff at; you don't need
  44    any symbolic information like variable names, types, etc.
  45
  46    GDB translates source expressions, whose meaning depends on
  47    symbolic information, into agent bytecode expressions, whose meaning
  48    is independent of symbolic information.  This means the agent can
  49    evaluate them on the fly without reference to data only available
  50    to the host GDB.  */

 133        when collecting a local variable allocated to a register; the
