addr2line

Display the filename and line number from an instruction address

$ addr2line -e [path/to/executable] [address]

$ addr2line -e [path/to/executable] -f [address]

$ addr2line -e [path/to/executable] -f -C [address]

addr2line [-e executable] [-f] [-C] [-s] [-i] [address...]

addr2line translates addresses into file names and line numbers. Given an address in an executable or relocatable object, it uses the debugging information to figure out which file name and line number are associated with it.
This is particularly useful for interpreting crash dumps and debugging information from stack traces.

-e, --exe executable

Specify the executable to examine

Display function names as well as file and line number information

Decode (demangle) low-level symbol names into user-level names (useful for C++)

Display only the base of each file name rather than the full path

If the address belongs to an inlined function, also print the caller information

Print output in a human-readable format

Display the address before the function name, file, and line

Requires the executable to be compiled with debugging information (e.g., -g flag for gcc). Stripped executables will not provide useful output.

Part of GNU Binutils, a collection of binary tools for working with object files and executables.
