+.SH NAME
+unw_get_proc_info_by_ip
+\-\- get procedure info by IP
+.PP
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+.PP
+#include <libunwind.h>
+.br
+.PP
+int
+unw_get_proc_info_by_ip(unw_addr_space_t as,
+unw_word_t ip,
+unw_proc_info_t *pip,
+void *arg);
+.br
+.PP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+
+.PP
+The unw_get_proc_info_by_ip()
+routine returns the same
+kind of auxiliary information about a procedure as
+unw_get_proc_info(),
+except that the info is looked up by
+instruction\-pointer (IP) instead of a cursor. This is more flexible
+because it is possible to look up the info for an arbitrary procedure,
+even if it is not part of the current call\-chain. However, since it
+is more flexible, it also tends to run slower (and often much slower)
+than unw_get_proc_info().
+.PP
+The routine expects the followins arguments: as
+is the
+address\-space in which the instruction\-pointer should be looked up.
+For a look\-up in the local address\-space,
+unw_local_addr_space
+can be passed for this argument.
+Argument ip
+is the instruction\-pointer for which the procedure
+info should be looked up and pip
+is a pointer to a structure of
+type unw_proc_info_t
+which is used to return the info.
+Lastly, arg
+is the address\-space argument that should be used
+when accessing the address\-space. It has the same purpose as the
+argument of the same name for unw_init_remote().
+When
+accessing the local address\-space (first argument is
+unw_local_addr_space),
+NULL
+must be passed for this
+argument.
+.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_by_ip()
+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. If the local
+address\-space is passed in argument as,
+this routine is also
+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)).
