NAME

       function::sprint_backtrace - Return stack back trace as string

SYNOPSIS

           sprint_backtrace:string()

ARGUMENTS

       None

DESCRIPTION

       Returns a simple (kernel) backtrace. One line per address. Includes the symbol name (or hex address if
       symbol couldn't be resolved) and module name (if found). Includes the offset from the start of the
       function if found, otherwise the offset will be added to the module (if found, between brackets). Returns
       the backtrace as string (each line terminated by a newline character). Note that the returned stack will
       be truncated to MAXSTRINGLEN, to print fuller and richer stacks use print_backtrace. Equivalent to
       sprint_stack(backtrace), but more efficient (no need to translate between hex strings and final backtrace
       string).
