29 DESCRIPTION
30 Each port of BFD to a different machine requries the creation
31 of a target back end. All the back end provides to the root
32 part of BFD is a structure containing pointers to functions
33 which perform certain low level operations on files. BFD
34 translates the applications's requests through a pointer into
35 calls to the back end routines.
36
37 When a file is opened with <<bfd_openr>>, its format and
38 target are unknown. BFD uses various mechanisms to determine
39 how to interpret the file. The operations performed are:
40
41 o First a BFD is created by calling the internal routine
42 <<new_bfd>>, then <<bfd_find_target>> is called with the
43 target string supplied to <<bfd_openr>> and the new BFD pointer.
44
45 o If a null target string was provided to <<bfd_find_target>>,
46 it looks up the environment variable <<GNUTARGET>> and uses
47 that as the target string.
48
49 o If the target string is still NULL, or the target string is
50 <<default>>, then the first item in the target vector is used
51 as the target type. @xref{bfd_target}.
52
53 o Otherwise, the elements in the target vector are inspected
54 one by one, until a match on target name is found. When found,
55 that is used.
56
57 o Otherwise the error <<invalid_target>> is returned to
58 <<bfd_openr>>.
59
60 o <<bfd_openr>> attempts to open the file using
61 <<bfd_open_file>>, and returns the BFD.
62
63 Once the BFD has been opened and the target selected, the file
64 format may be determined. This is done by calling
65 <<bfd_check_format>> on the BFD with a suggested format. The
66 routine returns <<true>> when the application guesses right.

81 DESCRIPTION
82 This structure contains everything that BFD knows about a
83 target. It includes things like its byte order, name, what
84 routines to call to do various operations, etc.
85
86 Every BFD points to a target structure with its <<xvec>>
87 member.
88
89 Shortcut for declaring fields which are prototyped function
90 pointers, while avoiding anguish on compilers that don't
91 support protos.
92
93 .#define SDEF(ret, name, arglist) \
94 . PROTO(ret,(*name),arglist)
95 .#define SDEF_FMT(ret, name, arglist) \
96 . PROTO(ret,(*name[bfd_type_end]),arglist)
97
98 These macros are used to dispatch to functions through the
99 bfd_target vector. They are used in a number of macros further
100 down in @file{bfd.h}, and are also used when calling various
101 routines by hand inside the BFD implementation. The "arglist"
102 argument must be parenthesized; it contains all the arguments
103 to the called function.
104
105 They make the documentation (more) unpleasant to read, so if
106 someone wants to fix this and not break the above, please do.
107
108 .#define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
109 . ((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist)
110
111 For operations which index on the BFD format
112
113 .#define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
114 . (((bfd)->xvec->message[(int)((bfd)->format)]) arglist)
115
116 This is the struct which defines the type of BFD this is. The
117 <<xvec>> member of the struct <<bfd>> itself points here. Each
118 module that implements access to a different target under BFD,
119 defines one of these.
120
121
122 FIXME, these names should be rationalised with the names of
123 the entry points which call them. Too bad we can't have one
124 macro to define them both!
