.SH NAME
.PP
unw_flush_cache \-\- flush cached info
.PP
.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
#include <libunwind.h>
.br
.PP
void
unw_flush_cache(unw_addr_space_t
as,
unw_word_t
lo,
unw_word_t
hi);
.br
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The unw_flush_cache()
routine flushes all cached info as it
relates to address\-range lo
to hi
(non\-inclusive) in the
target address\-space as\&.
In addition, all info cached for
address\-space as
that is not tied to a particular code\-range is
also flushed. For example, the address of the dynamic registration
list is not tied to a code\-range and its cached value (if any) is
flushed by a call to this routine. The address range specified by
lo
and hi
should be understood as a hint:
unw_flush_cache()
may flush more information than requested,
but \fInever\fP
less. In other words, unw_flush_cache()
may
overflush, but not underflush.
.PP
As a special case, if arguments lo
and hi
are both 0, all
information cached on behalf of address space as
is flushed.
.PP
.SH RETURN VALUE
.PP
The unw_flush_cache()
routine cannot fail and does not
return a value.
.PP
.SH THREAD AND SIGNAL SAFETY
.PP
The unw_flush_cache()
routine is thread\-safe as well as safe to
use from a signal handler.

.SH NAME
.PP
unw_get_proc_info \-\- get info on current procedure
.PP
.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
#include <libunwind.h>
.br
.PP
int
unw_get_proc_info(unw_cursor_t *cp,
unw_proc_info_t *pip);
.br
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The unw_get_proc_info()
routine returns auxiliary
information about the procedure that created the stack frame
identified by argument cp\&.
The pip
argument is a pointer
to a structure of type unw_proc_info_t
which is used to
return the information. The unw_proc_info_t
has the
following members:
.TP
unw_word_t start_ip
The address of the first
instruction of the procedure. If this address cannot be determined
(e.g., due to lack of unwind information), the start_ip
member is cleared to 0.
.br
.TP
unw_word_t end_ip
The address of the first
instruction \fIbeyond\fP
the end of the procedure. If this address
cannot be determined (e.g., due to lack of unwind information),
the end_ip
member is cleared to 0.
.br
.TP
unw_word_t lsda
The address of the
language\-specific data\-area (LSDA). This area normally contains
language\-specific information needed during exception handling. If
the procedure has no such area, this member is cleared to 0.
.br
.TP
unw_word_t handler
The address of the exception
handler routine. This is sometimes called the \fIpersonality\fP
routine. If the procedure does not define
a personality routine, the handler
member is cleared to 0.
.br
.TP
unw_word_t gp
The global\-pointer of the
procedure. On platforms that do not use a global pointer, this
member may contain an undefined value. On all other platforms, it
must be set either to the correct global\-pointer value of the
procedure or to 0 if the proper global\-pointer cannot be
obtained for some reason.
.br
.TP
unw_word_t flags
A set of flags. There are
currently no target\-independent flags. For the IA\-64 target, the
flag UNW_PI_FLAG_IA64_RBS_SWITCH
is set if the
procedure may switch the register\-backing store.
.br
.TP
int format
The format of the unwind\-info for this
procedure. If the unwind\-info consists of dynamic procedure info,
format
is equal to UNW_INFO_FORMAT_DYNAMIC\&.
If the
unwind\-info consists of a (target\-specific) unwind table, it is
equal to to UNW_INFO_FORMAT_TABLE\&.
All other values are
reserved for future use by libunwind\&.
This member exists
for use by the find_proc_info()
call\-back (see
unw_create_addr_space(3)).
The
unw_get_proc_info()
routine
may return an undefined value in this member.
.br
.TP
int unwind_info_size
The size of the unwind\-info
in bytes. This member exists for use by the
find_proc_info()
call\-back (see
unw_create_addr_space(3)).
The
unw_get_proc_info()
routine
may return an undefined value in this member.
.br
.TP
void *unwind_info
The pointer to the unwind\-info.
If no unwind info is available, this member must be set to
NULL\&.
This member exists for use by the
find_proc_info()
call\-back (see
unw_create_addr_space(3)).
The
unw_get_proc_info()
routine
may return an undefined value in this member.
.br
.PP
Note that for the purposes of libunwind,
the code of a
procedure is assumed to occupy a single, contiguous range of
addresses. For this reason, it is alwas possible to describe the
extent of a procedure with the start_ip
and end_ip
members. If a single function/routine is split into multiple,
discontiguous pieces, libunwind
will treat each piece as a
separate procedure.
.PP
.SH RETURN VALUE
.PP
On successful completion, unw_get_proc_info()
returns 0.
Otherwise the negative value of one of the error\-codes below is
returned.
.PP
.SH THREAD AND SIGNAL SAFETY
.PP
unw_get_proc_info()
is thread\-safe as well as safe to use
from a signal handler.
.PP
.SH ERRORS
.PP
.TP
UNW_EUNSPEC
An unspecified error occurred.
.TP
UNW_ENOINFO
Libunwind
was unable to locate
unwind\-info for the procedure.
.TP
UNW_EBADVERSION
The unwind\-info for the procedure has
version or format that is not understood by libunwind\&.
.PP
In addition, unw_get_proc_info()
may return any error
returned by the access_mem()
call\-back (see
unw_create_addr_space(3)).

unw_get_proc_name(unw_cursor_t *cp,

.br
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The unw_get_proc_name()
routine returns the name of the
procedure that created the stack frame identified by argument
cp\&.
The bufp
argument is a pointer to a character buffer
that is at least len
bytes long. This buffer is used to return
the name of the procedure. The offp
argument is a pointer to a
word that is used to return the byte\-offset of the instruction\-pointer
saved in the stack frame identified by cp,
relative to the start
of the procedure. For example, if procedure foo()
starts at
address 0x40003000, then invoking unw_get_proc_name()
on a
stack frame with an instruction\-pointer value of 0x40003080 would
return a value of 0x80 in the word pointed to by offp
(assuming
the procedure is at least 0x80 bytes long).
.PP
Note that on some platforms there is no reliable way to distinguish
between procedure names and ordinary labels. Furthermore, if symbol
information has been stripped from a program, procedure names may be
completely unavailable or may be limited to those exported via a
dynamic symbol table. In such cases, unw_get_proc_name()
may return the name of a label or a preceeding (nearby) procedure.
However, the offset returned through offp
is always relative to
the returned name, which ensures that the value (address) of the
returned name plus the returned offset will always be equal to the
instruction\-pointer of the stack frame identified by cp\&.
.PP
.SH RETURN VALUE
.PP
On successful completion, unw_get_proc_name()
returns 0.
Otherwise the negative value of one of the error\-codes below is
returned.
.PP

.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
#include <libunwind.h>
.br
.PP
const char *unw_regname(unw_regnum_t
regnum);
.br
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The unw_regname()
routine returns a printable name for
register regnum\&.
If regnum
is an invalid or otherwise
unrecognized register number, a string consisting of three question
marks is returned. The returned string is statically allocated and
therefore guaranteed to remain valid until the application terminates.
.PP
.SH RETURN VALUE
.PP
The unw_regname()
routine cannot fail and always returns a
valid (non\-NULL)
string.
.PP
.SH THREAD AND SIGNAL SAFETY
.PP
The unw_regname()
routine is thread\-safe as well as safe to
use from a signal handler.

.SH NAME
.PP
unw_set_caching_policy \-\- set unwind caching policy
.PP
.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
#include <libunwind.h>
.br
.PP
int
unw_set_caching_policy(unw_addr_space_t
as,
unw_caching_policy_t
policy);
.br
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The unw_set_caching_policy()
routine sets the caching policy
of address space as
to the policy specified by argument
policy\&.
The policy
argument can take one of three
possible values:
.TP
UNW_CACHE_NONE
Turns off caching completely. This
also implicitly flushes the contents of all caches as if
unw_flush_cache()
had been called.
.TP
UNW_CACHE_GLOBAL
Enables caching using a global cache
that is shared by all threads. If global caching is unavailable or
unsupported, libunwind
may fall back on using a per\-thread
cache, as if UNW_CACHE_PER_THREAD
had been specified.
.TP
UNW_CACHE_PER_THREAD
Enables caching using
thread\-local caches. If a thread\-local caching are unavailable or
unsupported, libunwind
may fall back on using a global cache,
as if UNW_CACHE_GLOBAL
had been specified.
.PP
If caching is enabled, an application must be prepared to make
appropriate calls to unw_flush_cache()
whenever the target
changes in a way that could affect the validity of cached information.
For example, after unloading (removing) a shared library,
unw_flush_cache()
would have to be called (at least) for the
address\-range that was covered by the shared library.
.PP
For address spaces created via unw_create_addr_space(3),
caching is turned off by default. For the local address space
unw_local_addr_space,
caching is turned on by default.
.PP
.SH RETURN VALUE
.PP
On successful completion, unw_set_caching_policy()
returns 0.
Otherwise the negative value of one of the error\-codes below is
returned.
.PP
.SH THREAD AND SIGNAL SAFETY
.PP
unw_set_caching_policy()
is thread\-safe but \fInot\fP
safe
to use from a signal handler.
.PP
.SH ERRORS
.PP
.TP
UNW_ENOMEM
The desired caching policy could not be
established because the application is out of memory.

\section{Description}
The \Func{unw\_set\_caching\_policy}() routine sets the caching policy
of address space \Var{as} to the policy specified by argument
\Var{policy}. The \Var{policy} argument can take one of three
possible values:
\begin{description}
