|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_expand_frame_instructions
|
|
translates DWARF frame instruction bytes into an array of
|
|
.Vt Dwarf_Frame_Op
|
|
descriptors.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar cie
|
|
should reference the CIE descriptor associated with the instructions
|
|
to be translated.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Arugment
|
|
.Ar instructions
|
|
should point to an array of frame instruction bytes, as
|
|
returned by the functions
|
|
.Xr dwarf_get_cie_info 3
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr dwarf_get_fde_instr_bytes 3 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar len
|
|
should specify the number of the frame instruction bytes to be
|
|
translated.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar ret_ops
|
|
should point to a location that will be set to a pointer to
|
|
an array of translated
|
|
.Vt Dwarf_Frame_Op
|
|
descriptors.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar ret_opcnt
|
|
should point to a location that will hold the total number of the
|
|
returned descriptors.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If argument
|
|
.Ar err
|
|
is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case of an
|
|
error.
|
|
.Ss Memory Management
|
|
The memory area used for the descriptor array returned in argument
|
|
.Ar ret_ops
|
|
is allocated by
|
|
.Lb libdwarf .
|
|
Application code should use function
|
|
.Xr dwarf_dealloc 3
|
|
with type
|
|
.Dv DW_DLA_FRAME_BLOCK
|
|
to free the memory area when the descriptor array is no longer needed.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_expand_frame_instructions
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv DW_DLV_OK
|
|
when it succeeds.
|
|
In case of an error, it returns
|
|
.Dv DW_DLV_ERROR
|
|
and sets the argument
|
|
.Ar err .
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
Function
|
|
.Fn dwarf_expand_frame_instructions
|
|
can fail with:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT"
|
|
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
|
|
One of the arguments
|
|
.Ar cie ,
|
|
.Ar instructions ,
|
|
.Ar ret_ops
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar ret_opcnt
|
|
was NULL.
|
|
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
|
|
Argument
|
|
.Ar len
|
|
was 0.
|
|
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_MEMORY
|
|
An out of memory condition was encountered during the execution of
|
|
this function.
|
|
.It Bq Er DW_DLE_FRAME_INSTR_EXEC_ERROR
|
|

|
|
in argument
|
|
.Ar instructions .

.Sh EXAMPLE
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
/* ... assuming `dbg` references a valid DWARF debugging context,
|
|
`fde` references a valid FDE descriptor and `cie` holds the CIE
|
|
descriptor associated with the FDE descriptor ... */
