| 5 | Each port of BFD to a different machine requries the creation | 
|---|
| 6 | of a target back end. All the back end provides to the root | 
|---|
| 7 | part of BFD is a structure containing pointers to functions | 
|---|
| 8 | which perform certain low level operations on files. BFD | 
|---|
| 9 | translates the applications's requests through a pointer into | 
|---|
| 10 | calls to the back end routines. | 
|---|
| 11 |  | 
|---|
| 12 | When a file is opened with @code{bfd_openr}, its format and | 
|---|
| 13 | target are unknown. BFD uses various mechanisms to determine | 
|---|
| 14 | how to interpret the file. The operations performed are: | 
|---|
| 15 |  | 
|---|
| 16 | @itemize @bullet | 
|---|
| 17 |  | 
|---|
| 18 | @item | 
|---|
| 19 | Create a BFD by calling the internal routine | 
|---|
| 20 | @code{_bfd_new_bfd}, then call @code{bfd_find_target} with the | 
|---|
| 21 | target string supplied to @code{bfd_openr} and the new BFD pointer. | 
|---|
| 22 |  | 
|---|
| 23 | @item | 
|---|
| 24 | If a null target string was provided to @code{bfd_find_target}, | 
|---|
| 25 | look up the environment variable @code{GNUTARGET} and use | 
|---|
| 26 | that as the target string. | 
|---|
| 27 |  | 
|---|
| 28 | @item | 
|---|
| 29 | If the target string is still @code{NULL}, or the target string is | 
|---|
| 30 | @code{default}, then use the first item in the target vector | 
|---|
| 31 | as the target type, and set @code{target_defaulted} in the BFD to | 
|---|
| 32 | cause @code{bfd_check_format} to loop through all the targets. | 
|---|
| 33 | @xref{bfd_target}.  @xref{Formats}. | 
|---|
| 34 |  | 
|---|
| 35 | @item | 
|---|
| 36 | Otherwise, inspect the elements in the target vector | 
|---|
| 37 | one by one, until a match on target name is found. When found, | 
|---|
| 38 | use it. | 
|---|
| 39 |  | 
|---|
| 40 | @item | 
|---|
| 41 | Otherwise return the error @code{bfd_error_invalid_target} to | 
|---|
| 42 | @code{bfd_openr}. | 
|---|
| 43 |  | 
|---|
| 44 | @item | 
|---|
| 45 | @code{bfd_openr} attempts to open the file using | 
|---|
| 46 | @code{bfd_open_file}, and returns the BFD. | 
|---|
| 47 | @end itemize | 
|---|
| 48 | Once the BFD has been opened and the target selected, the file | 
|---|
| 49 | format may be determined. This is done by calling | 
|---|
| 50 | @code{bfd_check_format} on the BFD with a suggested format. | 
|---|
| 51 | If @code{target_defaulted} has been set, each possible target | 
|---|
| 52 | type is tried to see if it recognizes the specified format. | 
|---|
| 53 | @code{bfd_check_format} returns @code{TRUE} when the caller guesses right. |

| 63 | @strong{Description}@* | 
|---|
| 64 | This structure contains everything that BFD knows about a | 
|---|
| 65 | target. It includes things like its byte order, name, and which | 
|---|
| 66 | routines to call to do various operations. | 
|---|
| 67 |  | 
|---|
| 68 | Every BFD points to a target structure with its @code{xvec} | 
|---|
| 69 | member. | 
|---|
| 70 |  | 
|---|
| 71 | The macros below are used to dispatch to functions through the | 
|---|
| 72 | @code{bfd_target} vector. They are used in a number of macros further | 
|---|
| 73 | down in @file{bfd.h}, and are also used when calling various | 
|---|
| 74 | routines by hand inside the BFD implementation.  The @var{arglist} | 
|---|
| 75 | argument must be parenthesized; it contains all the arguments | 
|---|
| 76 | to the called function. | 
|---|
| 77 |  | 
|---|
| 78 | They make the documentation (more) unpleasant to read, so if | 
|---|
| 79 | someone wants to fix this and not break the above, please do. | 
|---|
| 80 | @example | 
|---|
| 81 | #define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \ | 
|---|
| 82 | ((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist) | 
|---|
| 83 |  | 
|---|
| 84 | #ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND | 
|---|
| 85 | #undef BFD_SEND | 
|---|
| 86 | #define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \ | 
|---|
| 87 | (((bfd) && (bfd)->xvec && (bfd)->xvec->message) ? \ | 
|---|
| 88 | ((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist) : \ | 
|---|
| 89 | (bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL)) | 
|---|
| 90 | #endif | 
|---|
| 91 | @end example | 
|---|
| 92 | For operations which index on the BFD format: | 
|---|
| 93 | @example | 
|---|
| 94 | #define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \ | 
|---|
| 95 | (((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist) | 
|---|
| 96 |  | 
|---|
| 97 | #ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND | 
|---|
| 98 | #undef BFD_SEND_FMT | 
|---|
| 99 | #define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \ |

|---|
| 101 | (((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist) : \ | 
|---|
| 102 | (bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL)) | 
|---|
| 103 | #endif | 
|---|
| 104 |  | 
|---|
| 105 | @end example | 
|---|
| 106 | This is the structure which defines the type of BFD this is.  The | 
|---|
| 107 | @code{xvec} member of the struct @code{bfd} itself points here.  Each | 
|---|
| 108 | module that implements access to a different target under BFD, | 
|---|
| 109 | defines one of these. | 
|---|
| 110 |  | 
|---|
| 111 | FIXME, these names should be rationalised with the names of | 
|---|
| 112 | the entry points which call them. Too bad we can't have one | 
|---|
| 113 | macro to define them both! |
