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

83 DESCRIPTION
84 This structure contains everything that BFD knows about a
85 target. It includes things like its byte order, name, what
86 routines to call to do various operations, etc.
87
88 Every BFD points to a target structure with its <<xvec>>
89 member.
90
91 Shortcut for declaring fields which are prototyped function
92 pointers, while avoiding anguish on compilers that don't
93 support protos.
94
95 .#define SDEF(ret, name, arglist) \
96 . PROTO(ret,(*name),arglist)
97 .#define SDEF_FMT(ret, name, arglist) \
98 . PROTO(ret,(*name[bfd_type_end]),arglist)
99
100 These macros are used to dispatch to functions through the
101 bfd_target vector. They are used in a number of macros further
102 down in @file{bfd.h}, and are also used when calling various
103 routines by hand inside the BFD implementation. The "arglist"
104 argument must be parenthesized; it contains all the arguments
105 to the called function.
106
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!
