27 <<typedef bfd>>
29 A BFD has type <<bfd>>; objects of this type are the
30 cornerstone of any application using BFD. Using BFD
31 consists of making references though the BFD and to data in the BFD.
33 Here is the structure that defines the type <<bfd>>. It
34 contains the major data about the file and pointers
35 to the rest of the data.

719 Error reporting
721 Most BFD functions return nonzero on success (check their
722 individual documentation for precise semantics). On an error,
723 they call <<bfd_set_error>> to set an error condition that callers
724 can check by calling <<bfd_get_error>>.
725 If that returns <<bfd_error_system_call>>, then check
726 <<errno>>.
728 The easiest way to report a BFD error to the user is to
729 use <<bfd_perror>>.
731 The BFD error is thread-local.
733 SUBSECTION
734 Type <<bfd_error_type>>
736 The values returned by <<bfd_get_error>> are defined by the
737 enumerated type <<bfd_error_type>>.

1512 implement the BFD printf format extensions. This can be used
1513 in a callback that is set via bfd_set_error_handler to turn
1514 the error into ordinary output.

2229 DESCRIPTION
2230 Returns the normalized architecture address size, in bits, as
2231 determined by the object file's format. By normalized, we mean
2232 either 32 or 64. For ELF, this information is included in the
2233 header. Use bfd_arch_bits_per_address for number of bits in
2234 the architecture address.
2236 Returns the arch size in bits if known, <<-1>> otherwise.

2255 DESCRIPTION
2256 Indicates if the target architecture "naturally" sign extends
2257 an address. Some architectures implicitly sign extend address
2258 values when they are converted to types larger than the size
2259 of an address. For instance, bfd_get_start_address() will
2260 return an address sign extended to fill a bfd_vma when this is
2261 the case.
2263 Returns <<1>> if the target architecture is known to sign
2264 extend addresses, <<0>> if the target architecture is known to
2265 not sign extend addresses, and <<-1>> otherwise.

2895 bfd_demangle
2897 SYNOPSIS
2898 char *bfd_demangle (bfd *, const char *, int);
2900 DESCRIPTION
2901 Wrapper around cplus_demangle. Strips leading underscores and
2902 other such chars that would otherwise confuse the demangler.
2903 If passed a g++ v3 ABI mangled name, returns a buffer allocated
2904 with malloc holding the demangled name. Returns NULL otherwise
2905 and on memory alloc failure.
