47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48Function
49.Fn dwarf_get_arange
50searches an array of
51.Vt Dwarf_Arange
52descriptors for one that covers a given address.
53.Pp
54Argument
55.Ar ar_list
56should point to an array of
57.Vt Dwarf_Arange
58descriptors.
59.Pp
60Argument
61.Ar ar_cnt
62specifies the number of
63.Vt Dwarf_Arange
64descriptors in the array pointed to by argument
65.Ar ar_list .
66.Pp
67Argument
68.Ar addr
69specifies the address being looked up.
70.Pp
71Argument
72.Ar ret_ar
73will be used to store the
74.Vt Dwarf_Arange
75descriptor that covers the given address.
76.Pp
77If argument
78.Ar err
79is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case of an
80error.
81.Sh RETURN VALUES
82Function
83.Fn dwarf_get_arange
84returns
85.Dv DW_DLV_OK
86when it succeeds.
87It returns
88.Dv DW_DLV_NO_ENTRY
89if there is no
90.Vt Dwarf_Arange
91descriptor that covers the provided address.
92In case of an error, it returns
93.Dv DW_DLV_ERROR
94and sets the argument
95.Ar err .
96.Sh ERRORS
