Stu Grossman fa9265e55d * hppa-pinsn.c (print_insn): Use read_memory_integer, instead of
read_memory to get byte order right.
	* hppah-tdep.c (find_unwind_info):  Don't read in unwind info
	anymore.  This is done in paread.c now.  We expect unwind info
	to hang off of objfiles, and search all of the objfiles when until
	we find a match.
	* (skip_trampoline_code):  Cast arg to target_read_memory.
	* objfiles.h (struct objfile):  Add new field obj_private to hold
	per object file private data (unwind info in this case).
	* paread.c (read_unwind_info):  New routine to read unwind info
	for the objfile.  This data is hung off of obj_private.
	* tm-hppa.h:  Define struct obj_unwind_info, to hold pointers to
	the unwind info for this objfile.  Also define OBJ_UNWIND_INFO to
	make this easier to access.

/* This structure maintains information on a per-objfile basis about the
"entry point" of the objfile, and the scope within which the entry point
exists. It is possible that gdb will see more than one objfile that is
executable, each with it's own entry point.
For example, for dynamically linked executables in SVR4, the dynamic linker
code is contained within the shared C library, which is actually executable
and is run by the kernel first when an exec is done of a user executable
that is dynamically linked. The dynamic linker within the shared C library
then maps in the various program segments in the user executable and jumps
to the user executable's recorded entry point, as if the call had been made
directly by the kernel.
The traditional gdb method of using this info is to use the recorded entry
point to set the variables entry_file_lowpc and entry_file_highpc from
the debugging information, where these values are the starting address
(inclusive) and ending address (exclusive) of the instruction space in the
executable which correspond to the "startup file", I.E. crt0.o in most
cases. This file is assumed to be a startup file and frames with pc's
inside it are treated as nonexistent. Setting these variables is necessary
so that backtraces do not fly off the bottom of the stack (or top, depending
upon your stack orientation).
Gdb also supports an alternate method to avoid running off the top/bottom
of the stack.
There are two frames that are "special", the frame for the function
containing the process entry point, since it has no predecessor frame,
and the frame for the function containing the user code entry point
(the main() function), since all the predecessor frames are for the
process startup code. Since we have no guarantee that the linked
in startup modules have any debugging information that gdb can use,
we need to avoid following frame pointers back into frames that might
have been built in the startup code, as we might get hopelessly
confused. However, we almost always have debugging information
available for main().
These variables are used to save the range of PC values which are valid
within the main() function and within the function containing the process
entry point. If we always consider the frame for main() as the outermost
frame when debugging user code, and the frame for the process entry
point function as the outermost frame when debugging startup code, then
all we have to do is have FRAME_CHAIN_VALID return false whenever a
frame's current PC is within the range specified by these variables.
In essence, we set "ceilings" in the frame chain beyond which we will
not proceed when following the frame chain back up the stack.
A nice side effect is that we can still debug startup code without
running off the end of the frame chain, assuming that we have usable
debugging information in the startup modules, and if we choose to not
use the block at main, or can't find it for some reason, everything
still works as before. And if we have no startup code debugging
information but we do have usable information for main(), backtraces
from user code don't go wandering off into the startup code.
To use this method, define your FRAME_CHAIN_VALID macro like:
#define FRAME_CHAIN_VALID(chain, thisframe) \
(chain != 0 \
&& !(inside_main_func ((thisframe)->pc)) \
&& !(inside_entry_func ((thisframe)->pc)))
and add initializations of the four scope controlling variables inside
the object file / debugging information processing modules. */
