39 invalidate the frame / regcache afterwards) (better name more
40 strongly hinting at its unsafeness)
42 safe_....(): Safer version of various functions, doesn't throw an
43 error (leave this for later?). Returns non-zero / non-NULL if the
44 request succeeds, zero / NULL otherwize.
48 void /frame/_WHAT(): Read WHAT's value into the buffer parameter.
50 ULONGEST /frame/_WHAT_unsigned(): Return an unsigned value (the
51 alternative is *frame_unsigned_WHAT).
53 LONGEST /frame/_WHAT_signed(): Return WHAT signed value.
57 /frame/_memory* (frame, coreaddr, len [, buf]): Extract/return
60 /frame/_register* (frame, regnum [, buf]): extract/return register.

636 You might think that the below global can simply be replaced by a

641 The relevant code needs to be audited to determine if it is
