-<p><font size=+1><b>DESCRIPTION </b></font><br>
-
-<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
-
- These functions provide a processor-independent interface for
- accessing executable files, core files, and running processes
- via <i>maps</i>, data structures that provides access to an address space
- and register set. The functions described in <a href="../man3/mach-file.html"><i>mach-file</i>(3)</a> are
- typically used to construct these maps. Related library functions
- described in <a href="../man3/mach-symbol.html"><i>mach-symbol</i>(3)</a> provide similar access to symbol tables.
-
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- Each <i>map</i> comprises an optional register set and one or more <tt><font size=+1>segments</font></tt>,
- each associating a non-overlapping range of memory addresses with
- a logical section of an executable file or of a running process&#8217;s
- address space. Other library functions then use a map and the
- architecture-specific data structures to provide
- a generic interface to the processor-dependent data.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- Each segment has a name (e.g., <tt><font size=+1>text</font></tt> or <tt><font size=+1>data</font></tt>) and may be associated
- with a particular file. A segment represents a range of accessible
- address space. Segments may be backed an arbitary access function
- (if the <tt><font size=+1>rw</font></tt> pointer is non-nil), or by the contents of an open
- file (using the <tt><font size=+1>fd</font></tt> file descriptor). Each range has a
- starting address in the space (<tt><font size=+1>base</font></tt>) and an extent (<tt><font size=+1>size</font></tt>). In
- segments mapped by files, the range begins at byte <tt><font size=+1>offset</font></tt> in the
- file. The <tt><font size=+1>rw</font></tt> function is most commonly used to provide access
- to executing processes via <a href="../man2/ptrace.html"><i>ptrace</i>(2)</a> and to zeroed segments.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Allocmap</i> creates an empty map; <i>freemap</i> frees a map.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Addseg</i> adds the given segment to the map, resizing the map&#8217;s <i>seg</i>
- array if necessary. A negative return value indicates an allocation
- error.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Findseg</i> returns the index of the segment with the given name (and,
- if <i>file</i> is non-nil, the given file), or &ndash;1 if no such segment is
- found.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Addrtoseg</i> returns the index of the segment containing for the
- given address, or &ndash;1 if that address is not mapped. Segments may
- have overlapping address ranges: <i>addseg</i> appends segments to the
- end of the <i>seg</i> array in the map, and <i>addrtoseg</i> searches the map
- backwards from the end, so the most recently mapped
- segment wins.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Addrtosegafter</i> returns the index of the segment containing the
- lowest mapped address greater than <i>addr</i>.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Removeseg</i> removes the segment at the given index.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Get1</i>, <i>get2</i>, <i>get4</i>, and <i>get8</i> retrieve the data stored at address
- <i>addr</i> in the address space associated with <i>map</i>. <i>Get1</i> retrieves
- <i>n</i> bytes of data beginning at <i>addr</i> into <i>buf</i>. <i>Get2</i>, <i>get4</i> and <i>get8</i>
- retrieve 16-bit, 32-bit and 64-bit values respectively, into the
- location pointed to by <i>u</i>. The value is byte-swapped if the source
- byte order differs from that of the current architecture. This
- implies that the value returned by <i>get2</i>, <i>get4</i>, and <i>get8</i> may not
- be the same as the byte sequences returned by <i>get1</i> when <i>n</i> is two,
- four or eight; the former may be byte-swapped, the latter reflects
- the byte order of the target architecture. These functions
- return the number of bytes read or a &ndash;1 when there is an error.
-
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Put1</i>, <i>put2</i>, <i>put4</i>, and <i>put8</i> write to the address space associated
- with <i>map</i>. The address is translated using the map parameters and
- multi-byte quantities are byte-swapped, if necessary, before they
- are written. <i>Put1</i> transfers <i>n</i> bytes stored at <i>buf</i>; <i>put2</i>, <i>put4</i>,
- and <i>put8</i> write the 16-bit, 32-bit or 64-bit quantity
- contained in <i>val</i>, respectively. The number of bytes transferred
- is returned. A &ndash;1 return value indicates an error.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- When representing core files or running programs, maps also provide
- access to the register set. <i>Rget</i> and <i>rput</i> read or write the register
- named by <i>reg</i>. If the register is smaller than a <tt><font size=+1>ulong</font></tt>, the high
- bits are ignored.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Fpformat</i> converts the contents of a floating-point register to
- a string. <i>Buf</i> is the address of a buffer of <i>n</i> bytes to hold the
- resulting string. <i>Code</i> must be either <tt><font size=+1>F</font></tt> or <tt><font size=+1>f</font></tt>, selecting double
- or single precision, respectively. If <i>code</i> is <tt><font size=+1>F</font></tt>, the contents
- of the specified register and the following register are interpreted
- as a
- double-precision floating-point number; this is meaningful only
- for architectures that implement double-precision floats by combining
- adjacent single-precision registers.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- A <i>location</i> represents a place in an executing image capable of
- storing a value. Note that locations are typically passed by value
- rather than by reference.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Locnone</i> returns an unreadable, unwritable location. <i>Locaddr</i> returns
- a location representing the memory address <i>addr</i>. <i>Locreg</i> returns
- a location representing the register <i>reg</i>. <i>Locindir</i> returns an
- location representing the memory address at <i>offset</i> added to the
- value of <i>reg</i>. <i>Locconst</i> returns an imaginary unwritable
- location holding the constant <i>con</i>; such locations are useful for
- passing specific constants to functions expect locations, such
- as <i>unwind</i> (see <a href="../man3/mach-stack.html"><i>mach-stack</i>(3)</a>).
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Loccmp</i> compares two locations, returning negative, zero, or positive
- values if <tt><font size=+1>*a</font></tt> is less than, equal to, or greater than <tt><font size=+1>*b</font></tt>, respectively.
- Register locations are ordered before memory addresses, which
- are ordered before indirections.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- <i>Locfmt</i> is a <a href="../man3/print.html"><i>print</i>(3)</a>-verb that formats a <tt><font size=+1>Loc</font></tt> structure (<i>not</i> a
- pointer to one).
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- Indirection locations are needed in some contexts (e.g., when
- using <i>findlsym</i> (see <a href="../man3/mach-symbol.html"><i>mach-symbol</i>(3)</a>)), but bothersome in most.
- <i>Locsimplify</i> rewrites indirections as absolute memory addresses,
- by evaluating the register using the given map and adding the
- offset.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- The functions <i>lget1</i>, <i>lget2</i>, <i>lget4</i>, <i>lget8</i>, <i>lput1</i>, <i>lput2</i>, <i>lput4</i>,
- and <i>lput8</i> read and write the given locations, using the <i>get</i>, <i>put</i>,
- <i>rget</i>, and <i>rput</i> function families as necessary.<br>
