/* The following is the intended naming schema for frame functions.
It isn't 100% consistent, but it is aproaching that. Frame naming
schema:
Prefixes:
get_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT from the THIS frame (functionaly
equivalent to THIS->next->unwind->what)
frame_unwind_WHAT...(): Unwind THIS frame's WHAT from the NEXT
frame.
frame_unwind_caller_WHAT...(): Unwind WHAT for NEXT stack frame's
real caller. Any inlined functions in NEXT's stack frame are
skipped. Use these to ignore any potentially inlined functions,
e.g. inlined into the first instruction of a library trampoline.
get_stack_frame_WHAT...(): Get WHAT for THIS frame, but if THIS is
inlined, skip to the containing stack frame.
put_frame_WHAT...(): Put a value into this frame (unsafe, need to
invalidate the frame / regcache afterwards) (better name more
strongly hinting at its unsafeness)
safe_....(): Safer version of various functions, doesn't throw an
error (leave this for later?). Returns non-zero / non-NULL if the
request succeeds, zero / NULL otherwize.
Suffixes:
void /frame/_WHAT(): Read WHAT's value into the buffer parameter.
ULONGEST /frame/_WHAT_unsigned(): Return an unsigned value (the
alternative is *frame_unsigned_WHAT).
LONGEST /frame/_WHAT_signed(): Return WHAT signed value.
What:
/frame/_memory* (frame, coreaddr, len [, buf]): Extract/return
*memory.
/frame/_register* (frame, regnum [, buf]): extract/return register.
CORE_ADDR /frame/_{pc,sp,...} (frame): Resume address, innner most
stack *address, ...

get_frame_id: A low level frame unique identifier, that consists of
both a stack and a function address, that can be used to uniquely
identify a frame. This value is determined by the frame's
low-level unwinder, the stack part [typically] being the
top-of-stack of the previous frame, and the function part being the
function's start address. Since the correct identification of a
frameless function requires both a stack and function address,
the old get_frame_base method was not sufficient.
get_frame_base_address: get_frame_locals_address:
get_frame_args_address: A set of high-level debug-info dependant
addresses that fall within the frame. These addresses almost
certainly will not match the stack address part of a frame ID (as
returned by get_frame_base).

/* Notes (cagney/2002-11-27, drow/2003-09-06):
You might think that calls to this function can simply be replaced by a
call to get_selected_frame().
Unfortunately, it isn't that easy.
The relevant code needs to be audited to determine if it is
possible (or practical) to instead pass the applicable frame in as a
parameter. For instance, DEPRECATED_DO_REGISTERS_INFO() relied on
the deprecated_selected_frame global, while its replacement,
PRINT_REGISTERS_INFO(), is parameterized with the selected frame.
The only real exceptions occur at the edge (in the CLI code) where
user commands need to pick up the selected frame before proceeding.
There are also some functions called with a NULL frame meaning either "the
program is not running" or "use the selected frame".
This is important. GDB is trying to stamp out the hack:
saved_frame = deprecated_safe_get_selected_frame ();
select_frame (...);
hack_using_global_selected_frame ();
select_frame (saved_frame);
Take care!

frame, or returns NULL otherwise. */
