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

175 WARNING: This field is used by the code which handles watchpoints
176 (see breakpoint.c) to decide whether a particular value can be
177 watched by hardware watchpoints. If the lazy flag is set for
178 some member of a value chain, it is assumed that this member of
179 the chain doesn't need to be watched as part of watching the
180 value itself. This is how GDB avoids watching the entire struct
181 or array when the user wants to watch a single struct member or

1279 function pointer points to a two-word descriptor, generated by
1280 the linker, which contains the function's entry point, and the
1281 value the IA-64 "global pointer" register should have --- to
1282 support position-independent code. The linker generates
1283 descriptors only for those functions whose addresses are taken.
1285 On such targets, it's difficult for GDB to convert an arbitrary
1286 function address into a function pointer; it has to either find
1287 an existing descriptor for that function, or call malloc and
1288 build its own. On some targets, it is impossible for GDB to
1289 build a descriptor at all: the descriptor must contain a jump
1290 instruction; data memory cannot be executed; and code memory
1293 Upon entry to this function, if VAL is a value of type `function'
1294 (that is, TYPE_CODE (VALUE_TYPE (val)) == TYPE_CODE_FUNC), then
1295 VALUE_ADDRESS (val) is the address of the function. This is what
1296 you'll get if you evaluate an expression like `main'. The call
1297 to COERCE_ARRAY below actually does all the usual unary
1298 conversions, which includes converting values of type `function'
1299 to `pointer to function'. This is the challenging conversion
1300 discussed above. Then, `unpack_long' will convert that pointer
1301 back into an address.
1303 So, suppose the user types `disassemble foo' on an architecture
1304 with a strange function pointer representation, on which GDB
1305 cannot build its own descriptors, and suppose further that `foo'
1306 has no linker-built descriptor. The address->pointer conversion
1307 will signal an error and prevent the command from running, even
1308 though the next step would have been to convert the pointer
1309 directly back into the same address.

1312 function, just return its address directly. */

1323 addresses (hence not need a pointer to address conversion) while

1330 I think INTEGER_TO_ADDRESS is a good idea as proposed --- but we
1331 must admonish GDB hackers to make sure its behavior matches the
1332 compiler's, whenever possible.
1334 In general, I think GDB should evaluate expressions the same way
1335 the compiler does. When the user copies an expression out of
1336 their source code and hands it to a `print' command, they should
1337 get the same value the compiler would have computed. Any
1338 deviation from this rule can cause major confusion and annoyance,
1339 and needs to be justified carefully. In other words, GDB doesn't
1340 really have the freedom to do these conversions in clever and
1343 AndrewC pointed out that users aren't complaining about how GDB
1344 casts integers to pointers; they are complaining that they can't
1345 take an address from a disassembly listing and give it to `x/i'.
1346 This is certainly important.
1348 Adding an architecture method like integer_to_address() certainly
1349 makes it possible for GDB to "get it right" in all circumstances
1350 --- the target has complete control over how things get done, so
1351 people can Do The Right Thing for their target without breaking
1352 anyone else. The standard doesn't specify how integers get
1353 converted to pointers; usually, the ABI doesn't either, but
