Add MIPS support to the coredump library. Explicit support for the MIPS
program counter register is added so that we can start backtracing from
the program counter value we read from a core dump. The PC register
support was not strictly required for local backtracing, and we will in
fact just plug the return address to the PC register in getcontext().
I have only tested the 32bit "OABI" paths.
We can use the __sync builtin atomics also on other architectures than
IA64. GCC 4.7 documentation notes that these builtins are ``legacy'' --
adding support for the newer GCC __atomic atomics should be fairly easy.
Instead of maintaining a pointer to the `sos_memory' array, maintain an
index that tells the next free position. When atomic operations are
available, the allocation boils down to a single fetch-and-add
operation.
Rename the `ALIGN' macro to `UNW_ALIGN', and move it from
`_UCD_internal.h' to `libunwind_i.h' so that we can share it with the
mempool code. `ALIGN' was clashing with system headers on FreeBSD:

For a few of the supported architectures we can use one-to-one mapping
from the dwarf to the libunwind register numbers. Allow the
architectures to define their own dwarf_to_unw_regnum() macro to do this
easily.

- Add tdep macro for {dwarf,ia64}_find_unwind_table so that ia64
doesn't try to use dwarf code.
- Fix extraneous #if.
- Fix mistyped filename in Makefile.am.
- Link ia64-specific tests with correct libraries.

These let you get the pid and the current signal from the coredump.
This isn't strictly unwind related, but these are trivial to implement
as we have the info, and you almost always want these when you're
printing a backtrace from a core file.
Move ptrace-independent code from src/ptrace/_UPT_find_proc_info.c
to src/dwarf/{G,L}find_unwind_table.c. Name this moved function
dwarf_find_unwind_table().

This is a common part of struct UPT_info
and struct UCD_info (to be introduced later).
Make _UPTi_find_unwind_table function operate only on this part
of struct UPT_info.

Define unw_tdep_context rather than using ucontext_t in order to support
systems that lack ucontext.h. Note that POSIX.1-2008 removed getcontext,
makecontext and swapcontext from its specification.

Since the dl_iterate_phdr is required for local unwinding only the use of
struct dl_phdr_info can be eliminated in case libunwind gets compiled for
remote unwinding. This enhances libunwinds portability to targets that
don't provide any dl_iterate_phdr functionality.

Exclude <link.h> because it is only required for local unwinding when
iterating over the program headers.
Have the following DWARF related functions available in case of
UNW_REMOTE_ONLY because they are used by libunwind-ptrace:
dwarf_find_debug_frame
locate_debug_info
find_binary_for_address
load_debug_frame
debug_frame_tab_new
debug_frame_tab_append
debug_frame_tab_shrink
debug_frame_tab_compare

This change prevents libunwind_i.h from using a self-defined MAP_ANONYMOUS and
therefore avoids collisions in case the system header gets pulled in later.

Rename the dwarf dl_iterate_phdr callback routine and the callback_data
structure to dwarf_callback and dwarf_callback_data. Make it available

This patch add support for resuming at a certain stack frame even if signal
frames are involved. For restoring the registers the trampoline (sigreturn)
is used. RT and non-RT signal frames are handled for both >=2.6.18 and
<2.6.18 kernels.

Insert static branch prediction predicates in useful places and avoid
unnecessary code in the hottest paths. Bypass unnecessary indirect
calls, in particular to access_mem(), when known to be safe.
Since the fast unwinding code path doesn't need the full context,
a faster target dependent getcontext is implemented.

Dropping the extra frame for unw_backtrace itself using unw_step is
approximately 15% slower than skipping the frame in tdep_trace. So
drop the frame in the latter, and make the function a private
implementation detail for libunwind, not an exported interface.
Also moves unw_getcontext call back into unw_backtrace to avoid an
extra call frame in case slow_backtrace does not get inlined into
unw_backtrace.
Adds new function to perform a pure stack walk without unwinding,
functionally similar to backtrace() but accelerated by an address
attribute cache the caller maintains across calls.
Using malloc is not an option since unw_init_local and unw_step are supposed
to be async signal safe. Therefore this code path can be removed.
