/* GDB stores expressions in the form of a flattened tree (struct
27
   expression), so we just walk that tree and generate agent bytecodes
28
   as we go along.
29
 
30
   GDB's normal evaluation uses struct value, which contains the
31
   expression's value as well as its address or the register it came
32
   from.  The `+' operator uses the value, whereas the unary `&'
33
   operator will use the address portion.  The `=' operator will use
34
   the address or register number of its left hand side.
35
 
36
   The issues are different when generating agent bytecode.  Given a
37
   variable reference expression, we should not necessarily generate
38
   code to fetch its value, because the next operator may be `=' or
39
   unary `&'.  Instead, when we recurse on a subexpression, we
40
   indicate whether we want that expression to produce an lvalue or an
41
   rvalue.  If we requested an lvalue, then the recursive call tells
42
   us whether it generated code to compute an address on the stack, or
43
   whether the lvalue lives in a register.
44
 
45
   The `axs' prefix here means `agent expression, static', because
46
   this is all static analysis of the expression, i.e. analysis which
47
   doesn't depend on the contents of memory and registers.  */
