<p>The commands sent to and results received from agent may contain some
|
||
|
|
complex data types called <em>objects</em>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The in-process agent is running on the same machine with <small>GDB</small>
|
||
|
|
or GDBserver, so it doesn’t have to handle as much differences between
|
||
|
|
two ends as remote protocol (see <a href="Remote-Protocol.html#Remote-Protocol">Remote Protocol</a>) tries to handle.
|
||
|
|
However, there are still some differences of two ends in two processes:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol>
|
||
|
|
<li> word size. On some 64-bit machines, <small>GDB</small> or GDBserver can be
|
||
|
|
compiled as a 64-bit executable, while in-process agent is a 32-bit one.
|
||
|
|
</li><li> ABI. Some machines may have multiple types of ABI, <small>GDB</small> or
|
||
|
|
GDBserver is compiled with one, and in-process agent is compiled with
|
||
|
|
the other one.
|
||
|
|
</li></ol>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Here are the IPA Protocol Objects:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol>
|
||
|
|
<li> agent expression object. It represents an agent expression
|
||
|
|
(see <a href="Agent-Expressions.html#Agent-Expressions">Agent Expressions</a>).
|
||
|
|
<a name="agent-expression-object"></a></li><li> tracepoint action object. It represents a tracepoint action
|
||
|
|
(see <a href="Tracepoint-Actions.html#Tracepoint-Actions">Tracepoint Action Lists</a>) to collect registers,
|
||
|
|
memory, static trace data and to evaluate expression.
|
||
|
|
<a name="tracepoint-action-object"></a></li><li> tracepoint object. It represents a tracepoint (see <a href="Tracepoints.html#Tracepoints">Tracepoints</a>).
