2.3.0.6 bfd_get_sign_extend_vma
Synopsis
| int bfd_get_sign_extend_vma (bfd *abfd);
|
Description
Indicates if the target architecture "naturally" sign extends
an address. Some architectures implicitly sign extend address
values when they are converted to types larger than the size
of an address. For instance, bfd_get_start_address() will
return an address sign extended to fill a bfd_vma when this is
the case.
Returns
Returns 1
if the target architecture is known to sign
extend addresses, 0
if the target architecture is known to
not sign extend addresses, and -1
otherwise.
