UNW_BACKTRACE(3) Programming Library UNW_BACKTRACE(3) NAME unw_backtrace -- return backtrace for the calling program SYNOPSIS #include <libunwind.h> int unw_backtrace(void **buffer, int size); #include <execinfo.h> int backtrace(void **buffer, int size); DESCRIPTION unw_backtrace() is a convenient routine for obtaining the backtrace for the calling program. The routine fills up to size addresses in the ar- ray pointed by buffer. The routine is only available for local unwind- ing. Note that many (but not all) systems provide practically identical function called backtrace(). The prototype for this function is usu- ally obtained by including the <execinfo.h> header file -- a prototype for backtrace() is not provided by libunwind. libunwind weakly aliases backtrace() to unw_backtrace(), so when a program calling backtrace() is linked against libunwind, it may end up calling unw_backtrace(). RETURN VALUE The routine returns the number of addresses stored in the array pointed by buffer. The return value may be zero to indicate that no addresses were stored.
