unw_set_fpreg - Man Page

#include <libunwind.h>

int unw_set_fpreg(unw_cursor_t *cp, unw_regnum_t reg, unw_fpreg_t val);

The unw_set_fpreg() routine sets the value of register  reg in the stack frame identified by cursor cp to the  value passed in val.

The register numbering is target-dependent and described in separate  manual pages (e.g., libunwind-ia64(3libunwind) 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(3libunwind)), it is usually possible to access  all registers.

Note that unw_set_fpreg() can only write the contents of  floating-point registers. See unw_set_reg(3libunwind) for a way to  write registers which fit in a single word.

On successful completion, unw_set_fpreg() returns 0.  Otherwise the negative value of one of the error codes below is  returned.

unw_set_fpreg() is thread safe as well as safe to use  from a signal handler.

UNW_EUNSPEC

An unspecified error occurred.

UNW_EBADREG

An attempt was made to write a register  that is either invalid or not accessible in the current frame.

UNW_EREADONLY

An attempt was made to write to a  read-only register.

In addition, unw_set_fpreg() may return any error returned by  the access_mem(), access_reg(), and  access_fpreg() callbacks (see  unw_create_addr_space(3libunwind)).
