30 Prefixes:
31
32 get_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT from the THIS frame (functionaly
33 equivalent to THIS->next->unwind->what)
34
35 frame_unwind_WHAT...(): Unwind THIS frame's WHAT from the NEXT
36 frame.
37
38 put_frame_WHAT...(): Put a value into this frame (unsafe, need to
39 invalidate the frame / regcache afterwards) (better name more
40 strongly hinting at its unsafeness)
41
42 safe_....(): Safer version of various functions, doesn't throw an
43 error (leave this for later?). Returns non-zero / non-NULL if the
44 request succeeds, zero / NULL otherwize.
45
46 Suffixes:
47
48 void /frame/_WHAT(): Read WHAT's value into the buffer parameter.
49
50 ULONGEST /frame/_WHAT_unsigned(): Return an unsigned value (the
51 alternative is *frame_unsigned_WHAT).
52
53 LONGEST /frame/_WHAT_signed(): Return WHAT signed value.

55 What:
56
57 /frame/_memory* (frame, coreaddr, len [, buf]): Extract/return

60 /frame/_register* (frame, regnum [, buf]): extract/return register.

314 get_frame_id: A low level frame unique identifier, that consists of
315 both a stack and a function address, that can be used to uniquely
316 identify a frame. This value is determined by the frame's
317 low-level unwinder, the stack part [typically] being the
318 top-of-stack of the previous frame, and the function part being the
319 function's start address. Since the correct identification of a
320 frameless function requires both the a stack and function address,
321 the old get_frame_base method was not sufficient.

325 addresses that fall within the frame. These addresses almost

539
540 No state? Does the inferior have any execution state (a core file

542 `target_has_stack' but I'm left wondering if it should test
543 `target_has_registers' or, even, a merged target_has_state.
544
545 Should it look at the most recently specified SAL? If the target
546 has no state, should this function try to extract a block from the
547 most recently selected SAL? That way `list foo' would give it some
548 sort of reference point. Then again, perhaps that would confuse
549 things.
550
551 Calls to this function can be broken down into two categories: Code
552 that uses the selected block as an additional, but optional, data
553 point; Code that uses the selected block as a prop, when it should
554 have the relevant frame/block/pc explicitly passed in.
555
556 The latter can be eliminated by correctly parameterizing the code,
557 the former though is more interesting. Per the "address" command,
558 it occurs in the CLI code and makes it possible for commands to
559 work, even when the inferior has no state. */

609 You might think that the below global can simply be replaced by a

611
612 Unfortunately, it isn't that easy.
613
614 The relevant code needs to be audited to determine if it is
615 possible (or practical) to instead pass the applicable frame in as a

617 the deprecated_selected_frame global, while its replacement,
618 PRINT_REGISTERS_INFO(), is parameterized with the selected frame.
619 The only real exceptions occur at the edge (in the CLI code) where
