// frame generated for the "absl::GetStackFrames" routine itself), and then
// records the pc values for up to the next "max_depth" frames in
// "result", and the corresponding stack frame sizes in "sizes".
// Returns the number of values recorded in "result"/"sizes".
//
// Example:
// main() { foo(); }
// foo() { bar(); }
// bar() {
// void* result[10];
// int sizes[10];
// int depth = absl::GetStackFrames(result, sizes, 10, 1);

// The absl::GetStackFrames call will skip the frame for "bar". It will
// return 2 and will produce pc values that map to the following
// procedures:
// result[0] foo
// result[1] main
// (Actually, there may be a few more entries after "main" to account for
// startup procedures.)
// And corresponding stack frame sizes will also be recorded:
// sizes[0] 16
// sizes[1] 16
// (Stack frame sizes of 16 above are just for illustration purposes.)
// Stack frame sizes of 0 or less indicate that those frame sizes couldn't
// be identified.
//
// This routine may return fewer stack frame entries than are

// Some things to watch out for when calling absl::SetStackUnwinder:
//
// (a) The unwinder may be called from within signal handlers and
// therefore must be async-signal-safe.
//
// (b) Even after a custom stack unwinder has been unregistered, other
// threads may still be in the process of using that unwinder.
// Therefore do not clean up any state that may be needed by an old
// unwinder.
