35 -- See unit Ada.Exceptions for further details. Note that the reason that
36 -- we separate out these definitions is to avoid problems with recursion
37 -- in rtsfind. They must be in a unit which does not require any exception

55
56 -- The approach is to build tables that describe the PC ranges that
57 -- are covered by various exception frames. When an exception occurs,
58 -- these tables are searched to determine the address of the applicable
59 -- handler for the current exception.

61 subtype Handler_Loc is System.Address;

121 -- information (e.g. about the location of the return point, use of a
122 -- frame pointer, save-over-call registers etc) to unwind the machine
123 -- state to the caller. For some targets, this is simply a pointer to
124 -- the entry point of the procedure (and the routine to pop the machine
125 -- state disassembles the code at the entry point to obtain the required
