25/* The following is the intended naming schema for frame functions.
26 It isn't 100% consistent, but it is aproaching that. Frame naming
27 schema:
28
29 Prefixes:
30
31 get_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT from the THIS frame (functionaly
32 equivalent to THIS->next->unwind->what)
33
34 frame_unwind_WHAT...(): Unwind THIS frame's WHAT from the NEXT
35 frame.
36
37 put_frame_WHAT...(): Put a value into this frame (unsafe, need to
38 invalidate the frame / regcache afterwards) (better name more
39 strongly hinting at its unsafeness)
40
41 safe_....(): Safer version of various functions, doesn't throw an
304396fb
AC
42 error (leave this for later?). Returns non-zero / non-NULL if the
43 request succeeds, zero / NULL otherwize.
f0e7d0e8
AC
44
45 Suffixes:
46
47 void /frame/_WHAT(): Read WHAT's value into the buffer parameter.
48
49 ULONGEST /frame/_WHAT_unsigned(): Return an unsigned value (the
50 alternative is *frame_unsigned_WHAT).
51
52 LONGEST /frame/_WHAT_signed(): Return WHAT signed value.
53
54 What:
55
56 /frame/_memory* (frame, coreaddr, len [, buf]): Extract/return
57 *memory.
58
59 /frame/_register* (frame, regnum [, buf]): extract/return register.

612 has no state, should this function try to extract a block from the
