Ales Musil 759a29dc2d backtrace: Extend the backtrace functionality.
Use the backtrace functions that is provided by libc, this allows us
to get backtrace that is independent of the current memory map of the
process.  Which in turn can be used for debugging/tracing purpose.
The backtrace is not 100% accurate due to various optimizations, most
notably "-fomit-frame-pointer" and LTO.  This might result that the
line in source file doesn't correspond to the real line.  However, it
should be able to pinpoint at least the function where the backtrace
was called.

The implementation is determined during compilation based on available
libraries.  Libunwind has higher priority if both methods are available
to keep the compatibility with current behavior.

The backtrace is not marked as signal safe however the backtrace manual
page gives more detailed explanation why it might be the case [0].
Load the "libgcc" or equivalent in advance within the "fatal_signal_init"
which should ensure that subsequent calls to backtrace* do not call
malloc and are signal safe.

The typical backtrace will look similar to the one below:
 /lib64/libopenvswitch-3.1.so.0(backtrace_capture+0x1e) [0x7fc5db298dfe]
 /lib64/libopenvswitch-3.1.so.0(log_backtrace_at+0x57) [0x7fc5db2999e7]
 /lib64/libovsdb-3.1.so.0(ovsdb_txn_complete+0x7b) [0x7fc5db56247b]
 /lib64/libovsdb-3.1.so.0(ovsdb_txn_propose_commit_block+0x8d) [0x7fc5db563a8d]
 ovsdb-server(+0xa661) [0x562cfce2e661]
 ovsdb-server(+0x7e39) [0x562cfce2be39]
 /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x27b4a) [0x7fc5db048b4a]
 /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0x8b) [0x7fc5db048c0b]
 ovsdb-server(+0x8c35) [0x562cfce2cc35]

backtrace.h elaborates on how to effectively get the line information
associated with the addressed presented in the backtrace.

[0]
backtrace() and backtrace_symbols_fd() don't call malloc() explicitly,
but they are part of libgcc, which gets loaded dynamically when first
used.  Dynamic loading usually triggers a call to malloc(3).  If you
need certain calls to these two functions to not allocate memory (in
signal handlers, for example), you need to make sure libgcc is loaded
beforehand
