- Subject: Call stack trace implementation
My question is on implementation of stack backtrace on architures,
MIPS and PPC. Is the implementation based on libunwind and unwind
directives in the executable? Or is it based on older code which
analyzes prologue of a function? Or a mix of both approaches?
Thanks
