addr2line [-a|--addresses] [-b bfdname|--target=bfdname] [-C|--demangle[=style]] [-e filename|--exe=filename] [-f|--functions] [-s|--basename] [-i|--inlines] [-p|--pretty-print] [-j|--section=name] [-H|--help] [-V|--version] [addr addr ...]
addr2line translates addresses into file names and line numbers. Given an address in an executable or an offset in a section of a relocatable object, it uses the debugging information to figure out which file name and line number are associated with it.
The executable or relocatable object to use is specified with the -e option. The default is the file a.out. The section in the relocatable object to use is specified with the -j option.
addr2line has two modes of operation.
In the first, hexadecimal addresses are specified on the command line, and addr2line displays the file name and line number for each address.
In the second, addr2line reads hexadecimal addresses from standard input, and prints the file name and line number for each address on standard output. In this mode, addr2line may be used in a pipe to convert dynamically chosen addresses.
The format of the output is ‘FILENAME:LINENO’. The file name and line number for each input address is printed on separate lines.
If the -f option is used, then each ‘FILENAME:LINENO’ line is preceded by ‘FUNCTIONNAME’ which is the name of the function containing the address.
If the -i option is used and the code at the given address is present there because of inlining by the compiler then the ‘{FUNCTIONNAME} FILENAME:LINENO’ information for the inlining function will be displayed afterwards. This continues recursively until there is no more inlining to report.
If the -a option is used then the output is prefixed by the input address.
If the -p option is used then the output for each input address is displayed on one, possibly quite long, line. If -p is not used then the output is broken up into multiple lines, based on the paragraphs above.
If the file name or function name can not be determined, addr2line will print two question marks in their place. If the line number can not be determined, addr2line will print 0.
The long and short forms of options, shown here as alternatives, are equivalent.
