NAME
       uwx_step() - step one frame

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
       is  part  of  the Unwind Express Library for Integrity systems; see uwx(3X).  steps back one frame from the current context and updates the
       context to reflect the state of the new frame.  The return pointer becomes the new IP (instruction pointer),  the  previous  stack  pointer
       becomes	the  new stack pointer, the backing store pointer is adjusted to point to the previous frame's registers, the previous frame state
       becomes the new current frame marker, and all preserved registers are updated with the values they had in that frame.  (If has been used to
       disable floating-point register tracking, the preserved floating-point registers will not be updated.)

   Parameters
       env	      A pointer to an unwind environment object.

RETURN VALUE
       returns on success.  If the current frame is at the bottom of the call stack, it returns and the current context is unchanged.  If the cur-
       rent frame is a signal frame (or some other ABI-dependent context frame), it returns and the current context is unchanged.  All other  sta-
       tus codes indicate errors; see uwx(3X) for error codes.
