For example, the Linux kernel maps a "syscall DSO" into each process's address space; this DSO provides kernel-specific code for some system calls. At the moment, BFD only has functions for parsing object files from memory for the ELF format, even though the general idea isn't ELF-specific. This means that BFD only provides the functions GDB needs when configured for ELF-based targets. So these functions may only be compiled on ELF-based targets. GDB has no idea whether it has been configured for an ELF-based target or not: it just tries to handle whatever files it is given. But this means there are no preprocessor symbols on which we could make these functions' compilation conditional. So, for the time being, we put these functions alone in this file, and have .mt files reference them as appropriate. In the future, I hope BFD will provide a format-independent bfd_from_remote_memory entry point. */ #include "defs.h" #include "symtab.h" #include "gdbcore.h" #include "objfiles.h" #include "gdbcmd.h" #include "target.h" #include "value.h" #include "symfile.h" #include "observer.h" #include "auxv.h" #include "elf/common.h" #include "gdb_bfd.h" /* Verify parameters of target_read_memory_bfd and target_read_memory are compatible. */ gdb_static_assert (sizeof (CORE_ADDR) == sizeof (bfd_vma)); gdb_static_assert (sizeof (gdb_byte) == sizeof (bfd_byte)); gdb_static_assert (sizeof (ssize_t) <= sizeof (bfd_size_type)); /* Provide bfd/ compatible prototype for target_read_memory.
