+# SavedFrame
+
+A `SavedFrame` instance is a singly linked list of stack frames. It represents a
+JavaScript call stack at a past moment of execution. Younger frames hold a
+reference to the frames that invoked them. The older tails are shared across
+many younger frames.
+
+`SavedFrame` stacks should generally be captured, allocated, and live within the
+compartment that is being observed or debugged. Usually this is a content
+compartment.
+
+## Capturing `SavedFrame` Stacks
+
+### From C++
+
+Use `JS::CaptureCurrentStack` declared in `jsapi.h`.
+
+### From JS
+
+Use `saveStack`, accessible via `Components.utils.getJSTestingFunction()`.
+
+## Including and Excluding Chrome Frames
+
+Consider the following `SavedFrame` stack. Arrows represent links from child to
+parent frame, `content.js` is from a compartment with content principals, and
+`chrome.js` is from a compartment with chrome principals.
+
+```text
+function A from content.js
+            |
+            V
+function B from chrome.js
+            |
+            V
+function C from content.js
+```
+The content compartment will ever have one view of this stack: `A -> C`.
+
+However, a chrome compartment has a choice: it can either take the same view
+that the content compartment has (`A -> C`), or it can view all stack frames,
+including the frames from chrome compartments (`A -> B -> C`). To view
+everything, use an `XrayWrapper`. This is the default wrapper. To see the stack
+as the content compartment sees it, waive the xray wrapper with
+`Components.utils.waiveXrays`:
+
+    const contentViewOfStack = Components.utils.waiveXrays(someStack);
+
+## Accessor Properties of the `SavedFrame.prototype` Object
+
+### `source`
+The source URL for this stack frame, as a string.
+
+### `sourceId`
+The process-unique internal integer ID of this source. Usable to match up
+a SavedFrame with a [Debugger.Source][dbg-source] using its `id` property.
+
+### `line`
+The line number for this stack frame.
+
+### `column`
+The column number for this stack frame.
+
+### `functionDisplayName`
+Either SpiderMonkey's inferred name for this stack frame's function, or
+    `null`.
+
+### `asyncCause`
+If this stack frame is the `asyncParent` of other stack frames, then this is
+a string representing the type of asynchronous call by which this frame
+invoked its children. For example, if this frame's children are calls to
+handlers for a promise this frame created, this frame's `asyncCause` would
+be `"Promise"`. If the asynchronous call was started in a descendant frame
+to which the requester of the property does not have access, this will be
+the generic string `"Async"`. If this is not an asynchronous call point,
+this will be `null`.
+
+### `asyncParent`
+If this stack frame was called as a result of an asynchronous operation, for
+example if the function referenced by this frame is a promise handler, this
+property points to the stack frame responsible for the asynchronous call,
+for example where the promise was created. If the frame responsible for the
+call is not accessible to the caller, this points to the youngest accessible
+ancestor of the real frame, if any. In all other cases, this is `null`.
+
+### `parent`
+This stack frame's caller, or `null` if this is the oldest frame on the
+stack. In this case, there might be an `asyncParent` instead.
+
+## Function Properties of the `SavedFrame.prototype` Object
+
+### `toString()`
+Return this frame and its parents formatted as a human readable stack trace
+string.
