1550 Normally the resume address is inside the body of the function
1551 associated with THIS_FRAME, but there is a special case: when
1552 calling a function which the compiler knows will never return
1553 (for instance abort), the call may be the very last instruction
1554 in the calling function. The resume address will point after the
1555 call and may be at the beginning of a different function
1558 If THIS_FRAME is a signal frame or dummy frame, then we should
1559 not adjust the unwound PC. For a dummy frame, GDB pushed the
1560 resume address manually onto the stack. For a signal frame, the
1561 OS may have pushed the resume address manually and invoked the
1562 handler (e.g. GNU/Linux), or invoked the trampoline which called
1563 the signal handler - but in either case the signal handler is
1564 expected to return to the trampoline. So in both of these
1565 cases we know that the resume address is executable and
1566 related. So we only need to adjust the PC if THIS_FRAME
1567 is a normal function.
1569 If the program has been interrupted while THIS_FRAME is current,
1570 then clearly the resume address is inside the associated
1571 function. There are three kinds of interruption: debugger stop
1572 (next frame will be SENTINEL_FRAME), operating system
1573 signal or exception (next frame will be SIGTRAMP_FRAME),
1574 or debugger-induced function call (next frame will be
1575 DUMMY_FRAME). So we only need to adjust the PC if
1576 NEXT_FRAME is a normal function.
1578 We check the type of NEXT_FRAME first, since it is already
1579 known; frame type is determined by the unwinder, and since
1580 we have THIS_FRAME we've already selected an unwinder for
