25 /* The following is the intended naming schema for frame functions.
26 It isn't 100% consistent, but it is approaching that. Frame naming
27 schema:
29 Prefixes:
31 get_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT from the THIS frame (functionally
32 equivalent to THIS->next->unwind->what)
34 frame_unwind_WHAT...(): Unwind THIS frame's WHAT from the NEXT
35 frame.
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.
42 get_stack_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT for THIS frame, but if THIS is
43 inlined, skip to the containing stack frame.
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)
49 safe_....(): Safer version of various functions, doesn't throw an
50 error (leave this for later?). Returns true / non-NULL if the request
51 succeeds, false / NULL otherwise.
53 Suffixes:
55 void /frame/_WHAT(): Read WHAT's value into the buffer parameter.
57 ULONGEST /frame/_WHAT_unsigned(): Return an unsigned value (the
58 alternative is *frame_unsigned_WHAT).
60 LONGEST /frame/_WHAT_signed(): Return WHAT signed value.
62 What:
64 /frame/_memory* (frame, coreaddr, len [, buf]): Extract/return
65 *memory.
67 /frame/_register* (frame, regnum [, buf]): extract/return register.
69 CORE_ADDR /frame/_{pc,sp,...} (frame): Resume address, innner most
70 stack *address, ...

378 function's start address. Since the correct identification of a
379 frameless function requires both a stack and function address,
380 the old get_frame_base method was not sufficient.

643 `target_has_stack' but I'm left wondering if it should test

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

787 You might think that calls to this function can simply be replaced by a
788 call to get_selected_frame().
790 Unfortunately, it isn't that easy.
792 The relevant code needs to be audited to determine if it is
793 possible (or practical) to instead pass the applicable frame in as a
794 parameter. For instance, DEPRECATED_DO_REGISTERS_INFO() relied on
795 the deprecated_selected_frame global, while its replacement,
796 PRINT_REGISTERS_INFO(), is parameterized with the selected frame.
797 The only real exceptions occur at the edge (in the CLI code) where
798 user commands need to pick up the selected frame before proceeding.
800 There are also some functions called with a NULL frame meaning either "the
801 program is not running" or "use the selected frame".
803 This is important. GDB is trying to stamp out the hack:
805 saved_frame = deprecated_safe_get_selected_frame ();
806 select_frame (...);
807 hack_using_global_selected_frame ();
