40/* NOTE: cagney/2003-04-16: What's the future of this code?

43 asynchronous inferior function call implementation, and that in
44 turn means restructuring the code so that it is event driven. */

46/* How you should pass arguments to a function depends on whether it
47 was defined in K&R style or prototype style. If you define a
48 function using the K&R syntax that takes a `float' argument, then
49 callers must pass that argument as a `double'. If you define the
50 function using the prototype syntax, then you must pass the
51 argument as a `float', with no promotion.
52
53 Unfortunately, on certain older platforms, the debug info doesn't
54 indicate reliably how each function was defined. A function type's
55 TYPE_FLAG_PROTOTYPED flag may be clear, even if the function was
56 defined in prototype style. When calling a function whose
57 TYPE_FLAG_PROTOTYPED flag is clear, GDB consults this flag to
58 decide what to do.
59
60 For modern targets, it is proper to assume that, if the prototype
61 flag is clear, that can be trusted: `float' arguments should be
62 promoted to `double'. For some older targets, if the prototype
63 flag is clear, that doesn't tell us anything. The default is to
64 trust the debug information; the user can override this behavior
65 with "set coerce-float-to-double 0". */

388 On a RISC architecture, a void parameterless generic dummy
389 frame (i.e., no parameters, no result) typically does not
390 need to push anything the stack and hence can leave SP and

392 not push anything on the stack and, hence, that too can
393 leave FP and SP unchanged. As a consequence, a sequence of
394 void parameterless generic dummy frame calls to frameless
395 functions will create a sequence of effectively identical
396 frames (SP, FP and TOS and PC the same). This, not
397 suprisingly, results in what appears to be a stack in an
398 infinite loop --- when GDB tries to find a generic dummy
399 frame on the internal dummy frame stack, it will always
400 find the first one.
