\begin{Name}{3}{unw\_apply\_reg\_state}{David Mosberger-Tang}{Programming Library}{unw\_apply\_reg\_state}unw\_apply\_reg\_state -- apply a register state update to a cursor
\end{Name}
\section{Synopsis}
\File{\#include $<$libunwind.h$>$}\\
\Type{int}
\Func{unw\_apply\_reg\_state}(\Type{unw\_cursor\_t~*}\Var{cp},
\Type{void~*}\Var{reg\_states\_data});\\
\section{Description}
The \Func{unw\_apply\_reg\_state}() routine updates the register values
of a cursor according to the instructions in \Var{reg\_states\_data},
which have been obtained by calling \Var{unw\_reg\_states\_iterate}.
\section{Return Value}
On successful completion, \Func{unw\_apply\_reg\_state}() returns 0.
Otherwise the negative value of one of the error-codes below is
returned.
\section{Thread and Signal Safety}
\Func{unw\_apply\_reg\_state}() is thread-safe. If cursor \Var{cp} is
in the local address-space, this routine is also safe to use from a
signal handler.
\section{Errors}
\begin{Description}
\item[\Const{UNW\_EUNSPEC}] An unspecified error occurred.
\item[\Const{UNW\_ENOINFO}] \Prog{Libunwind} was unable to locate
unwind-info for the procedure.
\item[\Const{UNW\_EBADVERSION}] The unwind-info for the procedure has
version or format that is not understood by \Prog{libunwind}.
\end{Description}
In addition, \Func{unw\_apply\_reg\_state}() may return any error
returned by the \Func{access\_mem}() call-back (see
\Func{unw\_create\_addr\_space}(3)).

\begin{document}
\begin{Name}{3}{unw\_reg\_states\_iterate}{David Mosberger-Tang}{Programming Library}{unw\_reg\_states\_iterate}unw\_reg\_states\_iterate -- get register state info on current procedure
\end{Name}
\section{Synopsis}
\File{\#include $<$libunwind.h$>$}\\
\Type{int} \Func{unw\_reg\_states\_iterate}(\Type{unw\_cursor\_t~*}\Var{cp}, \Type{unw\_reg\_states\_callback}\Var{cb}, \Type{void~*}\Var{token});\\
\section{Description}
The \Func{unw\_reg\_states\_iterate}() routine provides
information about the procedure that created the stack frame
identified by argument \Var{cp}. The \Var{cb} argument is a pointer
to a function of type \Type{unw\_reg\_states\_callback} which is used to
return the information. The function \Type{unw\_reg\_states\_callback} has the
following definition:
\Type{int} (~*\Var{unw\_reg\_states\_callback})(\Type{void~*}\Var{token},
\Type{void~*}\Var{reg\_states\_data},
\Type{size\_t} \Var{reg\_states\_data\_size},
\Type{unw\_word\_t} \Var{start\_ip}, \Type{unw\_word\_t} \Var{end\_ip});
The callback function may be invoked several times for each call of \Func{unw\_reg\_states\_iterate}. Each call is associcated with a instruction address range and a set of instructions on how to update register values when returning from the procedure in that address range. For each invocation, the arguments to the callback function are:
\begin{description}
\item[\Type{void~*} \Var{token}] The token value passed to \Var{unw\_reg\_states\_callback}. \\
\item[\Type{void~*} \Var{reg\_states\_data}] A pointer to data about
updating register values. This data, or a copy of it, can be passed
to \Var{unw\_apply\_reg\_state}.\\
\item[\Type{int} \Var{reg\_states\_data\_size}] The size of the register update data. \\
\item[\Type{unw\_word\_t} \Var{start\_ip}] The address of the first
instruction of the address range. \\
\item[\Type{unw\_word\_t} \Var{end\_ip}] The address of the first
instruction \emph{beyond} the end of the address range. \\
\end{description}
\section{Return Value}
On successful completion, \Func{unw\_reg\_states\_iterate}() returns
0. If the callback function returns a nonzero value, that indicates
failure and the function returns immediately. Otherwise the negative
value of one of the error-codes below is returned.
\section{Thread and Signal Safety}
\Func{unw\_reg\_states\_iterate}() is thread-safe. If cursor \Var{cp} is
in the local address-space, this routine is also safe to use from a
signal handler.
\section{Errors}
\begin{Description}
\item[\Const{UNW\_EUNSPEC}] An unspecified error occurred.
\item[\Const{UNW\_ENOINFO}] \Prog{Libunwind} was unable to locate
unwind-info for the procedure.
\item[\Const{UNW\_EBADVERSION}] The unwind-info for the procedure has
version or format that is not understood by \Prog{libunwind}.
\end{Description}
In addition, \Func{unw\_reg\_states\_iterate}() may return any error
returned by the \Func{access\_mem}() call-back (see
\Func{unw\_create\_addr\_space}(3)).
