- .SH NAME
- unw_set_reg
- \-\- set register contents
- .PP
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .PP
- #include <libunwind.h>
- .br
- .PP
- int
- unw_set_reg(unw_cursor_t *cp,
- unw_regnum_t
- reg,
- unw_word_t
- val);
- .br
- .PP
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .PP
- The unw_set_reg()
- routine sets the value of register
- reg
- in the stack frame identified by cursor cp
- to the
- value passed in val\&.
- .PP
- The register numbering is target\-dependent and described in separate
- manual pages (e.g., libunwind\-ia64(3) for the IA\-64 target).
- Furthermore, the exact set of accessible registers may depend on the
- type of frame that cp
- is referring to. For ordinary stack
- frames, it is normally possible to access only the preserved
- (``callee\-saved\&'') registers and frame\-related registers (such as the
- stack\-pointer). However, for signal frames (see
- unw_is_signal_frame(3)),
- it is usually possible to access
- all registers.
- .PP
- Note that unw_set_reg()
- can only write the contents of
- registers whose values fit in a single word. See
- unw_set_fpreg(3)
- for a way to write registers which do not
- fit this constraint.
- .PP
- .SH RETURN VALUE
- .PP
- On successful completion, unw_set_reg()
- returns 0.
- Otherwise the negative value of one of the error\-codes below is
- returned.
- .PP
- .SH THREAD AND SIGNAL SAFETY
- .PP
- unw_set_reg()
- 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_EBADREG
- An attempt was made to write a register
- that is either invalid or not accessible in the current frame.
- .TP
- UNW_EREADONLY
- An attempt was made to write to a
- read\-only register.
- .PP
- In addition, unw_set_reg()
- may return any error returned by
- the access_mem(),
- access_reg(),
- and
- access_fpreg()
- call\-backs (see
- unw_create_addr_space(3)).
