Hello.

In getunwind.2 first: 

otherwise, no data is copied, and the 
call succeeds, returning the size that would be needed to store the unwind 
data.

and second:

On success, getunwind  returns the size of unwind table.

As I understand size of unwind data > size of unwind table.
What size really returned?

I think it should say "returns the size of the unwind data",
and I've made that change. Perhaps Marcela can confirm.

Cheers,

Michael
