getting the name of a C-function in the C-code based on a pointer to the function

[Matthias Apitz]

Hello hackers,

What I'm locking for is how to get the name of a function, into a string pointer
for logging purpose as

printf("function called: %s\n", p);

based on a pointer to the function because in our realworld code it looks like this:

int fun(*module(), ...)
{
   char *p = ....
   printf("calling module %s\n", p);
   (*module)(int i);
}

i.e. the function fun() gets only a pointer to a function to be called (one
of around 400 different functions of a shared lib) 

Any (portable idea)? Thanks

	matthias
