48.Sh DESCRIPTION
49Function
50.Fn dwarf_add_line_entry
51adds a line number information entry to a DWARF producer instance.
52.Pp
53Argument
54.Ar dbg
55should reference a DWARF producer instance allocated using
56.Xr dwarf_producer_init 3
57or
58.Xr dwarf_producer_init_b 3 .
59.Pp
60Argument
61.Ar filendx
62specifies the index of the source file that contains the source line
63in question.
64Valid source file indices are those returned by the function
65.Xr dwarf_add_file_decl 3 .
66.Pp
67Argument
68.Ar off
69specifies a relocatable program address.
70The ELF symbol to be used
71for relocation is set by a prior call to the function
72.Xr dwarf_lne_set_address 3 .
73.Pp
74Argument
75.Ar lineno
76specifies the line number of the source line.
77.Pp
78Argument
79.Ar column
80specifies the column number within the source line.
81.Pp
82If the argument
83.Ar is_stmt
84is set to true, it indicates that the instruction at the address
85specified by argument
86.Ar off
87is a recommended breakpoint location, i.e., the first instruction in
88the instruction sequence generated by the source line.
89.Pp
90If the argument
91.Ar basic_block
92is set to true, it indicates that the instruction at the address
93specified by argument
94.Ar off
95is the first instruction of a basic block.
96.Pp
97If argument
98.Ar err
99is not NULL, it will be used to store error information in case
100of an error.
101.Sh RETURN VALUES
102On success, function
103.Fn dwarf_add_line_entry
104returns
105.Dv DW_DLV_OK .
106In case of an error, function
107.Fn dwarf_add_line_entry
108returns
109.Dv DW_DLV_NOCOUNT
110and sets the argument
111.Ar err .
112.Sh ERRORS
113Function
114.Fn dwarf_add_line_entry
115can fail with:
116.Bl -tag -width ".Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT"
117.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
118Argument
119.Ar dbg
120was NULL.
121.It Bq Er DW_DLE_ARGUMENT
122The function
123.Xr dwarf_lne_set_address 3
124was not called before calling this function.
125.It Bq Er DW_DLE_MEMORY
126An out of memory condition was encountered during the execution of the
127function.
128.El
129.Sh EXAMPLE
130To add line number information to the producer instance, use:
131.Bd -literal -offset indent
132Dwarf_P_Debug dbg;
133Dwarf_Error de;
134Dwarf_Unsigned dir, filendx;
135
136/* ... assume dbg refers to a DWARF producer instance ... */
137
138dir = dwarf_add_directory_decl(dbg, "/home/foo", &de);
139if (dir == DW_DLV_NOCOUNT)
140	errx(EXIT_FAILURE, "dwarf_add_directory_decl failed: %s",
141	    dwarf_errmsg(-1));
142
143filendx = dwarf_add_file_decl(dbg, "bar.c", dir, 0, 1234, &de);
144if (filendx == DW_DLV_NOCOUNT)
145	errx(EXIT_FAILURE, "dwarf_add_file_decl failed: %s",
146	    dwarf_errmsg(-1));
147
148if (dwarf_lne_set_address(dbg, 0x4012b0, 12, &de) != DW_DLV_OK)
149	errx(EXIT_FAILURE, "dwarf_lne_set_address failed: %s",
150	    dwarf_errmsg(-1));
151
152if (dwarf_add_line_entry(dbg, filendx, 10, 258, 0, 1, 1, &de) !=
153    DW_DLV_OK)
154	errx(EXIT_FAILURE, "dwarf_add_line_entry failed: %s",
155	    dwarf_errmsg(-1));
