- Subject: symbol frames to peer tramp-frames?
Hello,
tramp-frame.[hc] contains code to handle the fairly common case of
identifying a frame based on the instruction sequence that a frame contains.
I'm again thinking that there should be symbol-frame.[hc] (to peer
tramp-frame.[hc]) where the frame is identified using the frame's
function name. An alternative would be to extend tramp-frame so that it
also includes an optional list of symbol names that it should match on.
(I'm trying to simplify the *86 trampoline code which matches based on a
combination of heuristics).
Thoughts?
