118 /* If a value represents a C++ object, then the `type' field gives
119 the object's compile-time type. If the object actually belongs
120 to some class derived from `type', perhaps with other base
121 classes and additional members, then `type' is just a subobject
122 of the real thing, and the full object is probably larger than
123 `type' would suggest.
125 If `type' is a dynamic class (i.e. one with a vtable), then GDB
126 can actually determine the object's run-time type by looking at
127 the run-time type information in the vtable. When this
128 information is available, we may elect to read in the entire
129 object, for several reasons:
131 - When printing the value, the user would probably rather see the
132 full object, not just the limited portion apparent from the
135 - If `type' has virtual base classes, then even printing `type'
136 alone may require reaching outside the `type' portion of the
137 object to wherever the virtual base class has been stored.
139 When we store the entire object, `enclosing_type' is the run-time
140 type -- the complete object -- and `embedded_offset' is the
141 offset of `type' within that larger type, in bytes. The
142 value_contents() macro takes `embedded_offset' into account, so
143 most GDB code continues to see the `type' portion of the value,
144 just as the inferior would.
146 If `type' is a pointer to an object, then `enclosing_type' is a
147 pointer to the object's run-time type, and `pointed_to_offset' is
148 the offset in bytes from the full object to the pointed-to object
149 -- that is, the value `embedded_offset' would have if we followed
150 the pointer and fetched the complete object. (I don't really see
151 the point. Why not just determine the run-time type when you
152 indirect, and avoid the special case? The contents don't matter
153 until you indirect anyway.)
155 If we're not doing anything fancy, `enclosing_type' is equal to
156 `type', and `embedded_offset' is zero, so everything works

177 (see breakpoint.c) to decide whether a particular value can be

179 some member of a value chain, it is assumed that this member of
180 the chain doesn't need to be watched as part of watching the
181 value itself. This is how GDB avoids watching the entire struct
182 or array when the user wants to watch a single struct member or

1525 function pointer points to a two-word descriptor, generated by
1526 the linker, which contains the function's entry point, and the
1527 value the IA-64 "global pointer" register should have --- to
1528 support position-independent code. The linker generates
1529 descriptors only for those functions whose addresses are taken.
1531 On such targets, it's difficult for GDB to convert an arbitrary
1532 function address into a function pointer; it has to either find
1533 an existing descriptor for that function, or call malloc and
1534 build its own. On some targets, it is impossible for GDB to
1535 build a descriptor at all: the descriptor must contain a jump
1536 instruction; data memory cannot be executed; and code memory
1539 Upon entry to this function, if VAL is a value of type `function'
1540 (that is, TYPE_CODE (VALUE_TYPE (val)) == TYPE_CODE_FUNC), then
1541 value_address (val) is the address of the function. This is what
1542 you'll get if you evaluate an expression like `main'. The call
1543 to COERCE_ARRAY below actually does all the usual unary
1544 conversions, which includes converting values of type `function'
1545 to `pointer to function'. This is the challenging conversion
1546 discussed above. Then, `unpack_long' will convert that pointer
1547 back into an address.
1549 So, suppose the user types `disassemble foo' on an architecture
1550 with a strange function pointer representation, on which GDB
1551 cannot build its own descriptors, and suppose further that `foo'
1552 has no linker-built descriptor. The address->pointer conversion
1553 will signal an error and prevent the command from running, even
1554 though the next step would have been to convert the pointer
1555 directly back into the same address.

1558 function, just return its address directly. */

1576 I think INTEGER_TO_ADDRESS is a good idea as proposed --- but we
1577 must admonish GDB hackers to make sure its behavior matches the
1578 compiler's, whenever possible.
1580 In general, I think GDB should evaluate expressions the same way
1581 the compiler does. When the user copies an expression out of
1582 their source code and hands it to a `print' command, they should
1583 get the same value the compiler would have computed. Any
1584 deviation from this rule can cause major confusion and annoyance,
1585 and needs to be justified carefully. In other words, GDB doesn't
1586 really have the freedom to do these conversions in clever and
1589 AndrewC pointed out that users aren't complaining about how GDB
1590 casts integers to pointers; they are complaining that they can't
1591 take an address from a disassembly listing and give it to `x/i'.
1592 This is certainly important.
1594 Adding an architecture method like integer_to_address() certainly
1595 makes it possible for GDB to "get it right" in all circumstances
1596 --- the target has complete control over how things get done, so
1597 people can Do The Right Thing for their target without breaking
1598 anyone else. The standard doesn't specify how integers get
1599 converted to pointers; usually, the ABI doesn't either, but
