48.Sh DESCRIPTION
49Function
50.Fn dwarf_get_fde_at_pc
51searches the provided array of DWARF FDE descriptors for a descriptor
52covering a given program counter address.
53.Pp
54Argument
55.Ar fdelist
56should point to an array of FDE descriptors, as returned by the functions
57.Xr dwarf_get_fde_list 3
58or
59.Xr dwarf_get_fde_list_eh 3 .
60.Pp
61Argument
62.Ar pc
63should contain the program counter address being looked up.
64.Pp
65Argument
66.Ar ret_fde
67should point to a location that will hold the returned FDE descriptor.
68.Pp
69Argument
70.Ar lopc
71should point to a location that will be set to the lowest address
72covered by the returned FDE descriptor.
73.Pp
74Argument
75.Ar hipc
76should point to a location that will be set to the highest address
77covered by the returned FDE descriptor.
78.Pp
79If argument
80.Ar err
81is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case of an
82error.
83.Sh RETURN VALUES
84Function
85.Fn dwarf_get_fde_at_pc
86returns
87.Dv DW_DLV_OK
88when it succeeds.
89It returns
90.Dv DW_DLV_NO_ENTRY
91if a FDE descriptor that covers the address specified by argument
92.Ar pc
93is not found.
94In case of an error, it returns
95.Dv DW_DLV_ERROR
96and sets the argument
97.Ar err .
