GDB's normal evaluation uses struct value, which contains the expression's value as well as its address or the register it came from. The `+' operator uses the value, whereas the unary `&' operator will use the address portion. The `=' operator will use the address or register number of its left hand side. The issues are different when generating agent bytecode. Given a variable reference expression, we should not necessarily generate code to fetch its value, because the next operator may be `=' or unary `&'. Instead, when we recurse on a subexpression, we indicate whether we want that expression to produce an lvalue or an rvalue. If we requested an lvalue, then the recursive call tells us whether it generated code to compute an address on the stack, or whether the lvalue lives in a register. The `axs' prefix here means `agent expression, static', because this is all static analysis of the expression, i.e. analysis which doesn't depend on the contents of memory and registers. */ /* Different kinds of agent expression static values. */ enum axs_lvalue_kind { /* We generated code to compute the subexpression's value. Constants and arithmetic operators yield this. */ axs_rvalue, /* We generated code to yield the subexpression's value's address on the top of the stack. If the caller needs an rvalue, it should call require_rvalue to produce the rvalue from this address. */ axs_lvalue_memory, /* We didn't generate any code, and the stack is undisturbed, because the subexpression's value lives in a register; u.reg is the register number. If the caller needs an rvalue, it should call require_rvalue to produce the rvalue from this register number. */ axs_lvalue_register }; /* Structure describing what we got from a subexpression.
