37 /* Values can be partially 'optimized out' and/or 'unavailable'.
38    These are distinct states and have different string representations
39    and related error strings.
40 
41    'unavailable' has a specific meaning in this context.  It means the
42    value exists in the program (at the machine level), but GDB has no
43    means to get to it.  Such a value is normally printed as
44    <unavailable>.  Examples of how to end up with an unavailable value
45    would be:
46 
47     - We're inspecting a traceframe, and the memory or registers the
48       debug information says the value lives on haven't been collected.
49 
50     - We're inspecting a core dump, the memory or registers the debug
51       information says the value lives aren't present in the dump
52       (that is, we have a partial/trimmed core dump, or we don't fully
53       understand/handle the core dump's format).
54 
55     - We're doing live debugging, but the debug API has no means to
56       get at where the value lives in the machine, like e.g., ptrace
57       not having access to some register or register set.
58 
59     - Any other similar scenario.
60 
61   OTOH, "optimized out" is about what the compiler decided to generate
62   (or not generate).  A chunk of a value that was optimized out does
63   not actually exist in the program.  There's no way to get at it
64   short of compiling the program differently.
65 
66   A register that has not been saved in a frame is likewise considered
67   optimized out, except not-saved registers have a different string
68   representation and related error strings.  E.g., we'll print them as
69   <not-saved> instead of <optimized out>, as in:
70 
71     (gdb) p/x $rax
72     $1 = <not saved>
73     (gdb) info registers rax
74     rax            <not saved>
75 
76   If the debug info describes a variable as being in such a register,
77   we'll still print the variable as <optimized out>.  IOW, <not saved>
78   is reserved for inspecting registers at the machine level.
79 
80   When comparing value contents, optimized out chunks, unavailable
81   chunks, and valid contents data are all considered different.  See
82   value_contents_eq for more info.

178 /* If a value represents a C++ object, then the `type' field gives the
179    object's compile-time type.  If the object actually belongs to some
180    class derived from `type', perhaps with other base classes and
181    additional members, then `type' is just a subobject of the real
182    thing, and the full object is probably larger than `type' would
183    suggest.
184 
185    If `type' is a dynamic class (i.e. one with a vtable), then GDB can
186    actually determine the object's run-time type by looking at the
187    run-time type information in the vtable.  When this information is
188    available, we may elect to read in the entire object, for several
189    reasons:
190 
191    - When printing the value, the user would probably rather see the
192      full object, not just the limited portion apparent from the
193      compile-time type.
194 
195    - If `type' has virtual base classes, then even printing `type'
196      alone may require reaching outside the `type' portion of the
197      object to wherever the virtual base class has been stored.
198 
199    When we store the entire object, `enclosing_type' is the run-time
200    type -- the complete object -- and `embedded_offset' is the offset
201    of `type' within that larger type, in bytes.  The value_contents()
202    macro takes `embedded_offset' into account, so most GDB code
203    continues to see the `type' portion of the value, just as the
204    inferior would.
205 
206    If `type' is a pointer to an object, then `enclosing_type' is a
207    pointer to the object's run-time type, and `pointed_to_offset' is
208    the offset in bytes from the full object to the pointed-to object
209    -- that is, the value `embedded_offset' would have if we followed
210    the pointer and fetched the complete object.  (I don't really see
211    the point.  Why not just determine the run-time type when you
212    indirect, and avoid the special case?  The contents don't matter
213    until you indirect anyway.)
214 
215    If we're not doing anything fancy, `enclosing_type' is equal to
216    `type', and `embedded_offset' is zero, so everything works
