39.Sh DESCRIPTION
40The
41.Fn Pobjname
42and
43.Fn Pobjname_resolved
44functions attempt to determine the underlying mapped object that
45contains the virtual address
46.Fa addr
47in the process handle
48.Fa P .
49.Pp
50A program consists of multiple memory mappings.
51Some are provided by the system, such as the stack and the heap.
52While others are created through explicit calls to
53.Xr mmap 2
54or brought in by the run-time link-editor due to dependencies
55specified in binaries and libraries.
56.Pp
57If
58.Fa addr
59is contained in a mapping, then up to
60.Fa bufsize
61characters, including the null terminator,
62of the name of the corresponding object will be written into
63.Fa buffer .
64The
65.Fn Pobjname_resolved
66function attempts to resolve the object to a full file system path.
67If the full file-system path cannot be determined, then it will fall back
68to the name that the run-time link-editor has for that mapping, which is
69the behavior of
70.Fn Pobjname .
71.Sh RETURN VALUES
72Upon successful completion, the
73.Fn Pobjname
74and
75.Fn Pobjname_resolved
76functions return
77.Fa buffer .
78Otherwise,
79.Dv NULL
80is returned to indicate the object name could not be found.
