82 Each time DW_OP_piece is executed, we add a new element to the
83 end of this array, recording the current top of the stack, the
84 current in_reg flag, and the size given as the operand to
85 DW_OP_piece. We then pop the top value from the stack, clear the
86 in_reg flag, and resume evaluation.
87
88 The Dwarf spec doesn't say whether DW_OP_piece pops the top value
89 from the stack. We do, ensuring that clients of this interface
90 expecting to see a value left on the top of the stack (say, code
91 evaluating frame base expressions or CFA's specified with
92 DW_CFA_def_cfa_expression) will get an error if the expression
93 actually marks all the values it computes as pieces.
94
95 If an expression never uses DW_OP_piece, num_pieces will be zero.
96 (It would be nice to present these cases as expressions yielding
97 a single piece, with in_reg clear, so that callers need not
98 distinguish between the no-DW_OP_piece and one-DW_OP_piece cases.
99 But expressions with no DW_OP_piece operations have no value to
100 place in a piece's 'size' field; the size comes from the
101 surrounding data. So the two cases need to be handled
102 separately.) */
