Hello,
I am looking to use gdb to print the stack each time a certain function
is called , then resume execution. And this without manual intervention.
Could anyone please advise if feasible and if yes, how? Any other tool
I can use?
Thanks,
a.

(gdb) break malloc
Breakpoint 1 at 0x483940
(gdb) commands
Type commands for breakpoint(s) 1, one per line.
End with a line saying just "end".
>backtrace
>continue
>end
(gdb) set pagination off
(gdb) run

Sorry, I'm not sure I understood your question. Will you be already
runnning GDB? If so, you can put a breakpoint at the function and use
`commands' to specify what you want to do when the breakpoint is hit.
Something like:
(gdb) break f
(gdb) commands
> bt
> cont
> end
(gdb) run
Is that what you want?
