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

223 Error reporting
225 Most BFD functions return nonzero on success (check their
226 individual documentation for precise semantics). On an error,
227 they call <<bfd_set_error>> to set an error condition that callers
228 can check by calling <<bfd_get_error>>.
229 If that returns <<bfd_error_system_call>>, then check
230 <<errno>>.
232 The easiest way to report a BFD error to the user is to
233 use <<bfd_perror>>.
235 SUBSECTION

760 SYNOPSIS

763 DESCRIPTION
764 Indicates if the target architecture "naturally" sign extends
765 an address. Some architectures implicitly sign extend address
766 values when they are converted to types larger than the size
767 of an address. For instance, bfd_get_start_address() will
768 return an address sign extended to fill a bfd_vma when this is
769 the case.
771 RETURNS
772 Returns <<1>> if the target architecture is known to sign
773 extend addresses, <<0>> if the target architecture is known to
774 not sign extend addresses, and <<-1>> otherwise.

855 FUNCTION
856 bfd_get_size
858 SYNOPSIS
859 long bfd_get_size(bfd *abfd);
861 DESCRIPTION
862 Return the file size (as read from file system) for the file
863 associated with BFD @var{abfd}.
865 The initial motivation for, and use of, this routine is not
866 so we can get the exact size of the object the BFD applies to, since
867 that might not be generally possible (archive members for example).
868 It would be ideal if someone could eventually modify
869 it so that such results were guaranteed.
871 Instead, we want to ask questions like "is this NNN byte sized
872 object I'm about to try read from file offset YYY reasonable?"
873 As as example of where we might do this, some object formats
874 use string tables for which the first <<sizeof (long)>> bytes of the
875 table contain the size of the table itself, including the size bytes.
876 If an application tries to read what it thinks is one of these
877 string tables, without some way to validate the size, and for
878 some reason the size is wrong (byte swapping error, wrong location
879 for the string table, etc.), the only clue is likely to be a read
880 error when it tries to read the table, or a "virtual memory
881 exhausted" error when it tries to allocate 15 bazillon bytes
882 of space for the 15 bazillon byte table it is about to read.
883 This function at least allows us to answer the quesion, "is the
884 size reasonable?".
