.SH NAME
unw_step
\-\- advance to next stack frame
.PP
.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
#include <libunwind.h>
.br
.PP
int
unw_step(unw_cursor_t *cp);
.br
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The unw_step()
routine advances the unwind cursor cp
to
the next older, less deeply nested stack frame.
.PP
.SH RETURN VALUE
.PP
On successful completion, unw_step()
returns a positive value
if there are more stack frames in the call\-chain, or 0 if the returned
stack frame is the last frame in the chain. On error, the negative
value of one of the error\-codes below is returned.
.PP
.SH THREAD AND SIGNAL SAFETY
.PP
unw_step()
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 the
unwind\-info needed to complete the operation.
.TP
UNW_EBADVERSION
The unwind\-info needed to complete the
operation has a version or a format that is not understood by
libunwind\&.
.TP
UNW_EINVALIDIP
The instruction\-pointer
(``program\-counter\&'') of the next stack frame is invalid (e.g., not
properly aligned).
.TP
UNW_EBADFRAME
The next stack frame is invalid.
.TP
UNW_ESTOPUNWIND
Returned if a call to
find_proc_info()
returned \-UNW_ESTOPUNWIND\&.
.PP
In addition, unw_step()
may return any error returned by the
find_proc_info(),
get_dyn_info_list_addr(),
access_mem(),
access_reg(),
or access_fpreg()
call\-backs (see unw_create_addr_space(3)).
