.SH DESCRIPTION

|
|
The unw_getcontext()
|
|
|
|
|
routine initializes the context structure
|
|
|
|
|
pointed to by ucp
|
|
|
|
|
with the machine\-state of the call\-site. The
|
|
|
|
|
exact set of registers stored by unw_getcontext()
|
|
|
|
|
is
|
|
|
|
|
platform\-specific, but, in general, at least all preserved
|
|
|
|
|
(``callee\-saved\&'') and all frame\-related registers, such as the
|
|
|
|
|
stack\-pointer, will be stored.
|

This routine is normally implemented as a macro and applications
|
|
|
|
|
should not attempt to take its address.

|
|
|
|
|
On successful completion, unw_getcontext()
|
|
|
|
|
returns 0.
|
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, a value of \-1 is returned.

unw_getcontext()

from a signal handler.
