  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.

 751    The only real exceptions occur at the edge (in the CLI code) where
