/* GENERIC DUMMY FRAMES
|
|
|
|
The following code serves to maintain the dummy stack frames for
|
|
inferior function calls (ie. when gdb calls into the inferior via
|
|
call_function_by_hand). This code saves the machine state before
|
|
the call in host memory, so we must maintain an independent stack
|
|
and keep it consistant etc. I am attempting to make this code
|
|
generic enough to be used by many targets.
|
|
|
|
The cheapest and most generic way to do CALL_DUMMY on a new target
|
|
is probably to define CALL_DUMMY to be empty, CALL_DUMMY_LENGTH to
|
|
zero, and CALL_DUMMY_LOCATION to AT_ENTRY. Then you must remember
|
|
to define PUSH_RETURN_ADDRESS, because no call instruction will be
|
|
being executed by the target. Also FRAME_CHAIN_VALID as
|
|
generic_{file,func}_frame_chain_valid and FIX_CALL_DUMMY as
|
|
generic_fix_call_dummy. */

/* Does the PC fall in a dummy frame?
|
|
|
|
This function is used by "frame.c" when creating a new `struct
|
|
frame_info'.
|
|
|
|
Note that there is also very similar code in breakpoint.c (where
|
|
the bpstat stop reason is computed). It is looking for a PC
|
|
falling on a dummy_frame breakpoint. Perhaphs this, and that code
|
|
should be combined?
|
|
|
|
Architecture dependant code, that has access to a frame, should not
|
|
use this function. Instead (get_frame_type() == DUMMY_FRAME)
|
|
should be used.
|
|
|
|
Hmm, but what about threads? When the dummy-frame code tries to
|
|
relocate a dummy frame's saved registers it definitly needs to
|
|
differentiate between threads (otherwize it will do things like
|
|
clean-up the wrong threads frames). However, when just trying to
|
|
identify a dummy-frame that shouldn't matter. The wost that can
|
|
happen is that a thread is marked as sitting in a dummy frame when,
|
|
in reality, its corrupted its stack, to the point that a PC is
|
|
pointing into a dummy frame. */
