From d72ba177c85f2ad18d0dcabdd8844532c9acb819 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Torbj=C3=B6rn=20SVENSSON?= Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2022 12:17:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] gdb: dwarf2 generic implementation for caching function data MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When there is no dwarf2 data for a register, a function can be called to provide the value of this register. In some situations, it might not be trivial to determine the value to return and it would cause a performance bottleneck to do the computation each time. This patch allows the called function to have a "cache" object that it can use to store some metadata between calls to reduce the performance impact of the complex logic. The cache object is unique for each function and frame, so if there are more than one function pointer stored in the dwarf2_frame_cache->reg array, then the appropriate pointer will be supplied (the type is not known by the dwarf2 implementation). dwarf2_frame_get_fn_data can be used to retrieve the function unique cache object. dwarf2_frame_allocate_fn_data can be used to allocate and retrieve the function unique cache object.
