gdb-16.2                                           2025-03-21                                          GSTACK(1)

       Print a stack trace of a running program with process ID pid.  If the process is multi-threaded, gstack
       outputs backtraces for every thread which exists in the process.

       The script invokes GDB, attaches to the given process ID, prints the stack trace, and detaches from the
       process.

       gstack exits with non-zero status if "gdb" was unable to attach to the given process ID for any reason,
       such as a non-existent process ID or insufficient privileges to attach to the process.

AWK Full  file  name  for  an  Awk  interpreter  to  use.  If not set, PATH will be searched for an "awk"
           program.

       GDB Full file name for a GDB executable to use to generate stack backtraces.  If not set,  PATH  will  be
           searched for a "gdb" program.

       GDBARGS
           Optional arguments to be passed to the "gdb" program.

--help-h  List all options, with brief explanations.

       --version-v  Print version information and then exit.

       The  full  documentation for GDB is maintained as a Texinfo manual.  If the "info" and "gdb" programs and
       GDB's Texinfo documentation are properly installed at your site, the command

               info gdb

       should give you access to the complete manual.
