.SH SYNOPSIS

|

|

#include <libunwind.h>

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
The unw_is_signal_frame()
|
|
routine returns a positive value
|
|
if the current frame identified by cp
|
|
is a signal frame, and a
|
|
value of 0 otherwise. For the purpose of this discussion, a signal
|
|
frame is a frame that was created in response to a potentially
|
|
asynchronous interruption. For UNIX and UNIX\-like platforms, such
|
|
frames are normally created by the kernel when delivering a signal.
|
|
In a kernel\-environment, a signal frame might, for example, correspond
|
|
to a frame created in response to a device interrupt.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Signal frames are somewhat unusual because the asynchronous nature of
|
|
the events that create them require storing the contents of registers
|
|
that are normally treated as scratch (``caller\-saved\&'') registers.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
On successful completion, unw_is_signal_frame()
|
|
returns a
|
|
positive value if the current frame is a signal frame, or 0 if it is
|
|
not. Otherwise, a negative value of one of the error\-codes below is
|
|
returned.
|
|

|
|
.SH THREAD AND SIGNAL SAFETY
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
unw_is_signal_frame()
|
|
is thread\-safe as well as safe to use
|
|
from a signal handler.

.SH ERRORS

.PP
|
|
.TP
|
|
UNW_ENOINFO
|
|
Libunwind
|
|
is unable to determine
|
|
whether or not the current frame is a signal frame.
