\-\- initialize cursor for local unwinding

.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
#include <libunwind.h>
|
|
.br
|
|
.PP
|
|
int
|
|
unw_init_local(unw_cursor_t *c,
|
|
unw_context_t *ctxt);

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
The unw_init_local()
|
|
routine initializes the unwind cursor
|
|
pointed to by c
|
|
with the machine\-state in the context structure
|
|
pointed to by ctxt\&.
|
|
As such, the machine\-state pointed to by
|
|
ctxt
|
|
identifies the initial stack frame at which unwinding
|
|
starts. The machine\-state must remain valid for the duration for
|
|
which the cursor c
|
|
is in use.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The unw_init_local()
|
|
routine can be used only for unwinding in
|
|
the address space of the current process (i.e., for local unwinding).
|
|
For all other cases, unw_init_remote()
|
|
must be used instead.
|
|
From a behavioral point of view, the call:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb
|
|
ret = unw_init_local(&cursor, &ucontext);
|
|
.Ve
|
|
is equivalent to:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb
|
|
ret = unw_init_remote(&cursor, unw_local_addr_space,
|
|
&ucontext);
|
|
.Ve
|
|
However, unwind performance may be better when using
|
|
unw_init_local().
|
|
Also, unw_init_local()
|
|
is
|
|
available even when UNW_LOCAL_ONLY
|
|
has been defined before
|
|
including <libunwind.h>,
|
|
whereas unw_init_remote()
|
|
is not.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
On successful completion, unw_init_local()
|
|
returns 0.
|
|
Otherwise the negative value of one of the error\-codes below is
|
|
returned.

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

.PP
|
|
.TP
|
|
UNW_EINVAL
|
|
unw_init_local()
|
|
was called in a
|
|
version of libunwind
|
|
which supports remote unwinding only
|
|
(this normally happens when calling unw_init_local()
|
|
for a
|
|
cross\-platform version of libunwind).
|
|
.TP
|
|
UNW_EUNSPEC
|
|
An unspecified error occurred.
|
|
.TP
|
|
UNW_EBADREG
|
|
A register needed by unw_init_local()
|
|
wasn\&'t accessible.
