NAME

6       function::sprint_backtrace - Return stack back trace as string
7       (EXPERIMENTAL)

SYNOPSIS

10           sprint_backtrace:string()
11

ARGUMENTS

13       None
14

DESCRIPTION

16       Returns a simple (kernel) backtrace. One line per address. Includes the
17       symbol name (or hex address if symbol couldn't be resolved) and module
18       name (if found). Includes the offset from the start of the function if
19       found, otherwise the offset will be added to the module (if found,
20       between brackets). Returns the backtrace as string (each line
21       terminated by a newline character). Note that the returned stack will
22       be truncated to MAXSTRINGLEN, to print fuller and richer stacks use
23       print_backtrace. Equivalent to sprint_stack(backtrace), but more
24       efficient (no need to translate between hex strings and final backtrace
25       string).
