/* Overview
--------
This module implements a number of backtrace routines. All
of the routines are implemented in terms of a common core.
The code is structured in a very generic way. For example, if
you were running on a version of Mach that support inter-machine
messaging, it would be feasible to do a backtrace of a PowerPC
program from program executing a completely different instruction
set architecture (ISA).
IMPORTANT:
The current code does not support cross-architecture backtraces
because of technical limitations (specifically, I haven't had
time to implement cross-architecture symbol translation, which
is required for cross-architecture backtraces to work properly;
see the comments for InitSigTrampAddress in the implementation
file for the details).
Backtraces are inherently processor-specific. Internal to this
module is a ISA later than adapts the backtrace for various ISA.
Currently it supports PowerPC (32-bit), PowerPC (64-bit), and
Intel (32-bit).
If you're curious about how stack frames work for each ISA, check
out the comments in the implementation file. The comments in the
header focus on how you use these routines.

/* Changes Since Previous Version
------------------------------
If you used the previous version of this code, please note the
following changes:
o Everything has changed (-:
I completely rewrote this code to support multiple architectures.
By including support for PowerPC (64-bit), I was forced to
eliminate my dependencies on CoreServices (which isn't available
to PowerPC (64-bit) on Mac OS X 10.4.x), which means now I depend
solely on the System framework. Also, because I had to support
Intel, which requires Mach-O, I decided to drop support for CFM.
My theory is that anyone who wants to adopt the new version of this
module is doing so because they're porting to Intel, and those folks
have to leave their CFM build behind.
The good news is that the new implementation is very similar
in spirit to the old, and it should be very easy for you to
adopt the new code.
*/
// Within this module, I treat all addresses as 64-bit. That way
// the code doesn't change for 64-bit and 32-bit architectures.
//
// Note:
// I could have made this type scale with the current pointer size,
// but my eventual goal is to support cross-architecture backtraces,
// which means I wanted a size that's at least as big as the 'largest'
// architecture I support.
typedef uint64_t MoreBTAddr;
// The following flags provide information about a specific frame in
// a backtrace.
//
// IMPORTANT:
// kMoreBTFrameBadMask is set for the last frame in the backtrace
// (where we've run off the end of the stack), but it can also be set
// for intermediate frames (where we've detected a frameless leaf
// routine, either at the top of the stack or as part of crossing
// a signal frame).
typedef int MoreBTFlags;
enum {
kMoreBTFrameBadMask = 0x0001, // this frame pointer is bad
kMoreBTPCBadMask = 0x0002, // this PC is bad
kMoreBTSignalHandlerMask = 0x0004 // this frame is a signal handler
};
// The end result of a backtrace is an array of MoreBTFrame
// structures describing a particular frame in the backtrace.
//
// Note:
// The PC points to the code that's using the frame. It is not
// the return address for that code. On architectures where the
// frame holds the return address (Intel, but not PowerPC), I do
// the appropriate corrections.
struct MoreBTFrame {
MoreBTAddr pc; // PC for this function invocation
MoreBTAddr fp; // frame pointer for this function invocation
MoreBTFlags flags; // various flags, see above
};
typedef struct MoreBTFrame MoreBTFrame;
/* Common Parameters
-----------------
All of the backtrace routines accept certain common parameters.
o function result -- This is an errno-style error code.
o stackBottom and stackTop -- These define the extent of the stack
which you are tracing. If this information isn't handy, supply
0 for both. Supplying meaningful values can reduce the number
of bogus frames reported if the stack is corrupt.
o frameArray and frameArrayCount -- These define an array of stack
frames that the routines fill out. You can supply NULL and 0
(respectively) if you're not interested in getting the actual
frame data (typically you do this to get the count of the number
of frames via frameCount). The routines do not fail if this
buffer is exhausted. Instead they simply return as many frames
as they can and continue tracing, returning an accurate value
for frameCount.
o frameCountPtr -- You can use this to get back an accurate count of
the number of frames in the stack. If you're not interested
in this information, you can pass NULL.
IMPORTANT:
Because of the above, on return, *frameCountPtr can be larger than
frameArrayCount.
The following assertions apply to these common parameters.
o On entry, stackBottom and stackTop must both be zero, or stackBottom
must be strictly less than stackTop.
o On entry, if frameArrayCount is not zero, frameArray must be not NULL.
o On entry, frameCountPtr must not be NULL.
o On return, *frameCountPtr will be the number of frames that were
found. On success, this is likely to be a meaningful number. On
error, this just indicates how far we got.
o On return, if frameArrayCount is not NULL, frame data has been placed
into the frame array. The number of valid entries is
min(frameArray, *frameArrayCount).
