[PATCH] i386 backtrace () using _Unwind_Backtrace


Hi!

_Unwind_Backtrace with contemporary libraries (i.e. those that have
PT_GNU_EH_FRAME program header and .eh_frame_hdr binary search table)
doesn't use malloc, so I think it is safe to use it for backtrace ().

2004-10-22  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

	* sysdeps/i386/Makefile (CFLAGS-backtrace.c): Add -fexceptions.
	* sysdeps/i386/backtrace.c: Include <bits/libc-lock.h>, <dlfcn.h>,
	<stdlib.h> and <unwind.h>.  Remove <bp-checks.h> include.
	(struct trace_arg): New type.
	(unwind_backtrace, unwind_getip, unwind_getcfa, unwind_getgr): New
	fn pointers resp. macros.
	(init, backtrace_helper): New functions.
	(__backtrace): Rewritten to use _Unwind_Backtrace first and fall
	back to frame pointer walking.
