35 /* Values can be partially 'optimized out' and/or 'unavailable'.
36 These are distinct states and have different string representations
37 and related error strings.
39 'unavailable' has a specific meaning in this context. It means the
40 value exists in the program (at the machine level), but GDB has no
41 means to get to it. Such a value is normally printed as
42 <unavailable>. Examples of how to end up with an unavailable value
45 - We're inspecting a traceframe, and the memory or registers the
46 debug information says the value lives on haven't been collected.
48 - We're inspecting a core dump, the memory or registers the debug
49 information says the value lives aren't present in the dump
50 (that is, we have a partial/trimmed core dump, or we don't fully
51 understand/handle the core dump's format).
53 - We're doing live debugging, but the debug API has no means to
54 get at where the value lives in the machine, like e.g., ptrace
55 not having access to some register or register set.
57 - Any other similar scenario.
59 OTOH, "optimized out" is about what the compiler decided to generate
60 (or not generate). A chunk of a value that was optimized out does
61 not actually exist in the program. There's no way to get at it
62 short of compiling the program differently.
64 A register that has not been saved in a frame is likewise considered
65 optimized out, except not-saved registers have a different string
66 representation and related error strings. E.g., we'll print them as
67 <not-saved> instead of <optimized out>, as in:
71 (gdb) info registers rax
74 If the debug info describes a variable as being in such a register,
75 we'll still print the variable as <optimized out>. IOW, <not saved>
76 is reserved for inspecting registers at the machine level.
78 When comparing value contents, optimized out chunks, unavailable
79 chunks, and valid contents data are all considered different. See
80 value_contents_eq for more info.

149 additional members, then `type' is just a subobject of the real
150 thing, and the full object is probably larger than `type' would
153 If `type' is a dynamic class (i.e. one with a vtable), then GDB can
154 actually determine the object's run-time type by looking at the
155 run-time type information in the vtable. When this information is

164 alone may require reaching outside the `type' portion of the

167 When we store the entire object, `enclosing_type' is the run-time
168 type -- the complete object -- and `embedded_offset' is the offset
169 of `type' within that larger type, in bytes. The value_contents()
170 macro takes `embedded_offset' into account, so most GDB code
171 continues to see the `type' portion of the value, just as the

175 pointer to the object's run-time type, and `pointed_to_offset' is
176 the offset in bytes from the full object to the pointed-to object
177 -- that is, the value `embedded_offset' would have if we followed
178 the pointer and fetched the complete object. (I don't really see
179 the point. Why not just determine the run-time type when you
180 indirect, and avoid the special case? The contents don't matter
