SECTION
        <<typedef bfd>>

        A BFD has type <<bfd>>; objects of this type are the
        cornerstone of any application using BFD. Using BFD
        consists of making references though the BFD and to data in the BFD.

        Here is the structure that defines the type <<bfd>>.  It
        contains the major data about the file and pointers
        to the rest of the data.

        individual documentation for precise semantics).  On an error,
        they call <<bfd_set_error>> to set an error condition that callers
        can check by calling <<bfd_get_error>>.
        If that returns <<bfd_error_system_call>>, then check
        <<errno>>.

        The easiest way to report a BFD error to the user is to
        use <<bfd_perror>>.

        If BFD finds an internal inconsistency, the bfd assert

        the current BFD operation as failed, so it is recommended to

FUNCTION

DESCRIPTION
        Returns the normalized architecture address size, in bits, as

        either 32 or 64.  For ELF, this information is included in the
        header.  Use bfd_arch_bits_per_address for number of bits in
        the architecture address.

DESCRIPTION
        Indicates if the target architecture "naturally" sign extends

        of an address.  For instance, bfd_get_start_address() will
        return an address sign extended to fill a bfd_vma when this is
        the case.

        Returns <<1>> if the target architecture is known to sign
        extend addresses, <<0>> if the target architecture is known to
        not sign extend addresses, and <<-1>> otherwise.
