37 /* Values can be partially 'optimized out' and/or 'unavailable'.
38 These are distinct states and have different string representations
39 and related error strings.
41 'unavailable' has a specific meaning in this context. It means the
42 value exists in the program (at the machine level), but GDB has no
43 means to get to it. Such a value is normally printed as
44 <unavailable>. Examples of how to end up with an unavailable value
47 - We're inspecting a traceframe, and the memory or registers the
48 debug information says the value lives on haven't been collected.
50 - We're inspecting a core dump, the memory or registers the debug
51 information says the value lives aren't present in the dump
52 (that is, we have a partial/trimmed core dump, or we don't fully
53 understand/handle the core dump's format).
55 - We're doing live debugging, but the debug API has no means to
56 get at where the value lives in the machine, like e.g., ptrace
57 not having access to some register or register set.
59 - Any other similar scenario.
61 OTOH, "optimized out" is about what the compiler decided to generate
62 (or not generate). A chunk of a value that was optimized out does
63 not actually exist in the program. There's no way to get at it
64 short of compiling the program differently.
66 A register that has not been saved in a frame is likewise considered
67 optimized out, except not-saved registers have a different string
68 representation and related error strings. E.g., we'll print them as
69 <not-saved> instead of <optimized out>, as in:
73 (gdb) info registers rax
76 If the debug info describes a variable as being in such a register,
77 we'll still print the variable as <optimized out>. IOW, <not saved>
78 is reserved for inspecting registers at the machine level.
80 When comparing value contents, optimized out chunks, unavailable
81 chunks, and valid contents data are all considered different. See
82 value_contents_eq for more info.

181 additional members, then `type' is just a subobject of the real
182 thing, and the full object is probably larger than `type' would
185 If `type' is a dynamic class (i.e. one with a vtable), then GDB can
186 actually determine the object's run-time type by looking at the
187 run-time type information in the vtable. When this information is
188 available, we may elect to read in the entire object, for several

192 full object, not just the limited portion apparent from the
195 - If `type' has virtual base classes, then even printing `type'
196 alone may require reaching outside the `type' portion of the
197 object to wherever the virtual base class has been stored.
199 When we store the entire object, `enclosing_type' is the run-time
200 type -- the complete object -- and `embedded_offset' is the offset
201 of `type' within that larger type, in bytes. The value_contents()
202 macro takes `embedded_offset' into account, so most GDB code
203 continues to see the `type' portion of the value, just as the
206 If `type' is a pointer to an object, then `enclosing_type' is a
207 pointer to the object's run-time type, and `pointed_to_offset' is
208 the offset in bytes from the full object to the pointed-to object
209 -- that is, the value `embedded_offset' would have if we followed
210 the pointer and fetched the complete object. (I don't really see
211 the point. Why not just determine the run-time type when you
212 indirect, and avoid the special case? The contents don't matter
213 until you indirect anyway.)
