28 /* GENERIC DUMMY FRAMES
30 The following code serves to maintain the dummy stack frames for
31 inferior function calls (ie. when gdb calls into the inferior via
32 call_function_by_hand). This code saves the machine state before
33 the call in host memory, so we must maintain an independent stack
34 and keep it consistant etc. I am attempting to make this code
35 generic enough to be used by many targets.
37 The cheapest and most generic way to do CALL_DUMMY on a new target
38 is probably to define CALL_DUMMY to be empty, CALL_DUMMY_LENGTH to
39 zero, and CALL_DUMMY_LOCATION to AT_ENTRY. Then you must remember
40 to define PUSH_RETURN_ADDRESS, because no call instruction will be
41 being executed by the target. Also FRAME_CHAIN_VALID as
42 generic_{file,func}_frame_chain_valid and FIX_CALL_DUMMY as
43 generic_fix_call_dummy. */
