// backtrace() and exception unwinding in glibc both call dl_iterate_phdr(),
// which takes the loader lock and so is not async signal safe. Profiling or slow task
// profiling can deadlock when they interrupt the unwinding of an exception.
// This library overrides the implementation of dl_iterate_phdr() so that it
// can be async signal safe in this context, at the cost of other restrictions
// Call this function after all dynamic libraries are loaded
// (no further calls to dlopen() or dlclose() are permitted).
// After calling it, dl_iterate_phdr() will be async-signal-safe.
// At this time, it is a no-op on all platforms except Linux
void initSignalSafeUnwind();
// This can be used by tests to measure the number of calls to dl_iterate_phdr intercepted
