/*! \file isc/backtrace.h
* \brief provide a back trace of the running process to help debug problems.
*
* This module tries to get a back trace of the process using some platform
* dependent way when available. It also manages an internal symbol table
* that maps function addresses used in the process to their textual symbols.
* This module is expected to be used to help debug when some fatal error
* happens.
*
* IMPORTANT NOTE: since the (major) intended use case of this module is
* dumping a back trace on a fatal error, normally followed by self termination,
* functions defined in this module generally doesn't employ assertion checks
* (if it did, a program bug could cause infinite recursive calls to a
* backtrace function). These functions still perform minimal checks and return
* ISC_R_FAILURE if they detect an error, but the caller should therefore be
* very careful about the use of these functions, and generally discouraged to
* use them except in an exit path. The exception is
* isc_backtrace_getsymbolfromindex(), which is expected to be used in a
* non-error-handling context and validates arguments with assertion checks.
