e frame pointer and is negative. The location of the stab specifies which block it is defined in; see *note Block Structure::. For example, the following C code: int main () { int x; } produces the following stabs: .stabs "main:F1",36,0,0,_main # 36 is N_FUN .stabs "x:1",128,0,0,-12 # 128 is N_LSYM .stabn 192,0,0,LBB2 # 192 is N_LBRAC .stabn 224,0,0,LBE2 # 224 is N_RBRAC See *note Procedures:: for more information on the 'N_FUN' stab, and *note Block Structure:: for more information on the 'N_LBRAC' and 'N_RBRAC' stabs.
