Subject: | [Libunwind-devel] libunwind support for Mips |
Date: | Thu, 19 Jan 2017 02:32:01 +0000 |
Hi, I did a brief search of the mail archives and noticed some mail suggesting support for Mips. Can you tell me if libunwind does in fact support Mips? If not, is it in development?
We have a number of different processor architectures (all running linux) that we would like to have backtrace support on. Unfortunately, we cannot use glibc’s backtrace capability for various reasons… so we are looking for an alternative.
In particular, we want to be able to provide a stack backtrace when an application on the router crashes due to error such as segmentation fault or illegal instruction. The current idea is for each application to have a signal handler that catches the usual
catastrophic errors and the signal handler will call code to provide backtrace. We want something lightweight, and libunwind sounds perfect for the job, but alas, it needs to run on all of our processors… mips and arm are the big ones. If you could let me know status on mips and arm implementations, I would appreciate it. Thanks, John JOHN KNIGHT |
