Ken,
Thanks, I am on vacation at the moment, I will work on this when I return..
Nice, have a good one! :)
I do not explicitly call out -funwind-tables but when I run you variant of
debuggerd I do get everything to correctly backtrace even with stripped
binaries which implies to me that the unwind-tables were being generated.
Thanks for your work on this and I will dig back in on my return.
Since you mentioned "Ubuntu 10.4 armel" and I thought you were using the
Linaro evaluation builds based on Ubuntu. The Ubuntu ARM binaries are
not compiled with -funwind-tables while Android on ARM has this flag
enabled by default. I didn't run/port the libunwind testsuite to
Android, so I don't have any results for this platform. However, a
(rather simple) testcase works fine on my PandaBoard. More infos about
libunwind, Androids debuggerd and the test app can be found at:
