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.
68
69 CORE_ADDR /frame/_{pc,sp,...} (frame): Resume address, innner most

368 get_frame_id: A low level frame unique identifier, that consists of
369 both a stack and a function address, that can be used to uniquely
370 identify a frame. This value is determined by the frame's
371 low-level unwinder, the stack part [typically] being the
372 top-of-stack of the previous frame, and the function part being the
373 function's start address. Since the correct identification of a
374 frameless function requires both a stack and function address,
375 the old get_frame_base method was not sufficient.
376
377 get_frame_base_address: get_frame_locals_address:
378 get_frame_args_address: A set of high-level debug-info dependant
379 addresses that fall within the frame. These addresses almost

381 returned by get_frame_base).
