/* This structure maintains information on a per-objfile basis about the
"entry point" of the objfile, and the scope within which the entry point
to the user executable's recorded entry point, as if the call had been made
directly by the kernel.
- The traditional gdb method of using this info is to use the recorded entry
- point to set the variables entry_file_lowpc and entry_file_highpc from
- the debugging information, where these values are the starting address
- (inclusive) and ending address (exclusive) of the instruction space in the
- executable which correspond to the "startup file", I.E. crt0.o in most
- cases. This file is assumed to be a startup file and frames with pc's
- inside it are treated as nonexistent. Setting these variables is necessary
- so that backtraces do not fly off the bottom of the stack.

+ method doesn't work. Corinna writes: ``It turns out that the call
+ to test for "inside entry file" destroys a meaningful backtrace
+ under some conditions. E. g. the backtrace tests in the asm-source
+ testcase are broken for some targets. In this test the functions
+ are all implemented as part of one file and the testcase is not
+ necessarily linked with a start file (depending on the target).
+ What happens is, that the first frame is printed normaly and
+ following frames are treated as being inside the enttry file then.
+ This way, only the #0 frame is printed in the backtrace output.''

Gdb also supports an alternate method to avoid running off the bottom
of the stack.

A nice side effect is that we can still debug startup code without
use the block at main, or can't find it for some reason, everything
still works as before. And if we have no startup code debugging
information but we do have usable information for main(), backtraces

- To use this method, define your FRAME_CHAIN_VALID macro like:
-
- #define FRAME_CHAIN_VALID(chain, thisframe) \
- (chain != 0 \
- && !(inside_main_func ((thisframe)->pc)) \
- && !(inside_entry_func ((thisframe)->pc)))
