Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The *backtrace* command prints a backtrace of the current call stack. This can
|
|
be useful for debugging to see how a particular code path was reached.
|
|
|
|
The output shows each stack frame with the function name, source file, and line
|
|
number (when debug information is available). This includes static functions.
|
|
|
|

Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The backtrace command is enabled by CONFIG_CMD_BACKTRACE which depends on
|
|
CONFIG_BACKTRACE. Currently this is only available on sandbox.
|
|
|
|
The sandbox implementation uses libbacktrace (bundled with GCC) to provide
|
|
detailed symbol information including function names, source files, and line
|
|
numbers.
