27 It isn't 100% consistent, but it is aproaching that. Frame naming
28 schema:
29
30 Prefixes:
31
32 get_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT from the THIS frame (functionaly
33 equivalent to THIS->next->unwind->what)
34
35 frame_unwind_WHAT...(): Unwind THIS frame's WHAT from the NEXT
36 frame.
37
38 put_frame_WHAT...(): Put a value into this frame (unsafe, need to
39 invalidate the frame / regcache afterwards) (better name more
40 strongly hinting at its unsafeness)
41
42 safe_....(): Safer version of various functions, doesn't throw an
43 error (leave this for later?). Returns non-zero / non-NULL if the
44 request succeeds, zero / NULL otherwize.
45
46 Suffixes:
47
48 void /frame/_WHAT(): Read WHAT's value into the buffer parameter.
49
50 ULONGEST /frame/_WHAT_unsigned(): Return an unsigned value (the
51 alternative is *frame_unsigned_WHAT).
52
53 LONGEST /frame/_WHAT_signed(): Return WHAT signed value.
54
55 What:
56
57 /frame/_memory* (frame, coreaddr, len [, buf]): Extract/return
58 *memory.
59
60 /frame/_register* (frame, regnum [, buf]): extract/return register.
61
62 CORE_ADDR /frame/_{pc,sp,...} (frame): Resume address, innner most

512
513 No state? Does the inferior have any execution state (a core file
514 does, an executable does not). At present the code tests
515 `target_has_stack' but I'm left wondering if it should test
516 `target_has_registers' or, even, a merged target_has_state.
517
518 Should it look at the most recently specified SAL? If the target
519 has no state, should this function try to extract a block from the
520 most recently selected SAL? That way `list foo' would give it some
521 sort of reference point. Then again, perhaps that would confuse
522 things.
523
524 Calls to this function can be broken down into two categories: Code
525 that uses the selected block as an additional, but optional, data
526 point; Code that uses the selected block as a prop, when it should
527 have the relevant frame/block/pc explicitly passed in.
528
529 The latter can be eliminated by correctly parameterizing the code,
530 the former though is more interesting. Per the "address" command,
531 it occurs in the CLI code and makes it possible for commands to
532 work, even when the inferior has no state. */
