26/* It's sometimes useful to be able to debug programs that you can't
27 really stop for more than a fraction of a second. To this end, the
28 user can specify a tracepoint (like a breakpoint, but you don't
29 stop at it), and specify a bunch of expressions to record the
30 values of when that tracepoint is reached. As the program runs,
31 GDB collects the values. At any point (possibly while values are
32 still being collected), the user can display the collected values.
33
34 This is used with remote debugging; we don't really support it on
35 native configurations.
36
37 This means that expressions are being evaluated by the remote agent,
38 which doesn't have any access to the symbol table information, and
39 needs to be small and simple.
40
41 The agent_expr routines and datatypes are a bytecode language
42 designed to be executed by the agent. Agent expressions work in
43 terms of fixed-width values, operators, memory references, and
44 register references. You can evaluate a agent expression just given
45 a bunch of memory and register values to sniff at; you don't need
46 any symbolic information like variable names, types, etc.
47
48 GDB translates source expressions, whose meaning depends on
49 symbolic information, into agent bytecode expressions, whose meaning
50 is independent of symbolic information. This means the agent can
51 evaluate them on the fly without reference to data only available
52 to the host GDB. */
