+# NAME
+
+pt_insn_get_offset, pt_insn_get_sync_offset - get an Intel(R) Processor Trace
+instruction flow decoder's current/synchronization trace buffer offset
+
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+| **\#include `<intel-pt.h>`**
+|
+| **int pt_insn_get_offset(const struct pt_insn_decoder \**decoder*,**
+| **uint64_t \**offset*);**
+| **int pt_insn_get_sync_offset(const struct pt_insn_decoder \**decoder*,**
+| **uint64_t \**offset*);**
+
+Link with *-lipt*.
+
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+**pt_insn_get_offset**() provides *decoder*'s current position as offset in
+bytes from the beginning of *decoder*'s trace buffer in the unsigned integer
+variable pointed to by *offset*.
+
+**pt_insn_get_sync_offset**() provides *decoder*'s last synchronization point as
+offset in bytes from the beginning of *decoder*'s trace buffer in the unsigned
+integer variable pointed to by *offset*.
+
+
+# RETURN VALUE
+
+Both functions return zero on success or a negative *pt_error_code* enumeration
+constant in case of an error.
+
+
+# ERRORS
+
+pte_invalid
+: The *decoder* or *offset* argument is NULL.
+
+pte_nosync
+: *decoder* has not been synchronized onto the trace stream. Use
+ **pt_insn_sync_forward**(3), **pt_insn_sync_backward**(3), or
+ **pt_insn_sync_set**(3) to synchronize *decoder*.
