glibc: Enable backtrace from abort on ARM
ARM stack frames for abort and raise were limited to the the actual abort and raise call, such as: Obtained 4 stack frames. ./test-app(print_trace+0x1c) [0x10a08] ./test-app() [0x10b3c] /lib/libc.so.6(__default_sa_restorer+0) [0x4adae1e0] /lib/libc.so.6(gsignal+0xa0) [0x4adacf74] This is not terribly useful when trying to figure out what function may have called called the abort, especially when using pthreads. After the change the trace would now look like: Obtained 8 stack frames. ./test-app(print_trace+0x1c) [0x10a08] ./test-app() [0x10b3c] /lib/libc.so.6(__default_sa_restorer+0) [0x4befe1e0] /lib/libc.so.6(gsignal+0xa0) [0x4befcf74] /lib/libc.so.6(abort+0x134) [0x4befe358] ./test-app(dummy_function+0x50) [0x10adc] ./test-app(main+0xd4) [0x10c24] /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0x114) [0x4bee7a58] (From OE-Core rev: 93bf8713d8e13c278543baea94fb8dad0cb80e49) Signed-off-by: Yuanjie Huang <yuanjie.huang@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Hatle <mark.hatle@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Ross Burton <ross.burton@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Armin Kuster <akuster808@gmail.com>
