[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH 2/2] gdb: refactor iteration over frames while dumping stack

Mikhail Elhimov elhimov at gmail.com
Sat Jul 23 03:11:20 MSK 2022


Changes:
- Introduce generator to iterate over frames in a Python way
- Dump framelink of the bottom frame in a common way and identify it as
  a dummy framelink only inside of common dump function
- Framelink always refers to the slot right before frame's base
- Introduce constant LJ_FRAMELINK_NUM_SLOTS to make slot arithmetic
  more obvious. Previous using of boolean LJ_RT2 in arithmetic looked
  like a tricky way, both to read and maintain (however places where
  LJ_RT2 approach had been originally replicated from the source code
  are left intact, because it is expected that maintenance efforts for
  them will be minimal)
