On Linux, this tool generates a minidump for given process. It requires
the permission to trace the process and access its /proc directory. This
is useful when a defective behavior of a process does not lead to a
crash. For example, it can be used by a watchdog or if a process does
not correctly respond to a termination request.

On Linux, it is possible to register a core handler via
/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern. Doing so invokes the core handler when
a process crash. The core_handler uses /proc/<pid>/mem to access the
process memory. This way it is not necessary to process the full
coredump which takes time and consumes memory.
In order to profit from this core handler, for example, one can
integrate dump_syms into Yocto and generate an archive with the
breakpad symbols of all the binaries in the rootfs. Minidumps are
especially useful on embedded systems since they are lightweight and
provide contextual information.

__WORDSIZE is an internal libc definition. Instead, we can use
ULONG_MAX from limits.h, whose value corresponds to the machine's
native word size.
This allows us to remove the fallback definition of __WORDSIZE in

- "sym-upload-v2" protocol now supports specifying a symbol file "type".
- Known types are "breakpad" (default option, previously this was only
effectively the only option), "elf", "pe", "macho", "debug_only", "dwp",
"pdb", and "dsym".
- When type other than breakpad is specified, sym_upload tool requires
the code_file and debug_id value (that it otherwise would have gotten
from the text of the Breakpad symbol file).
- This ultimately means that sym_upload can be used to upload native
symbol files now, in addition to Breakpad symbol files.

The code has been rewriting the location of the shared lib lookup
completely which breaks normal sysroot usage with gdb. Split out
the behavior into dedicated flags so people can opt into it. You
can see examples of -i/-f in the usage() text.
We also change the -S behavior so that it's no longer enabled by
default -- if people want /var/lib/breakpad/, they can pass the -S
flag explicitly.

This uses the same general framework as other minidump tools by using
getopt to parse command line options, and then passing the parsed state
around as a struct rather than via globals.
This does change the --sobasedir flag to -S because we don't support
getopt_long anywhere in the tree. Unfortunate, but better to match
all the other breakpad tools which only accept short options.

It is often helpful to check if a particular symbol file dumped by
dump_syms actually matches a version of a binary file we have. The
symbol output contains an ID which can be used to see if it matches
the binary file. Unfortunately, this ID is internally calculated
and not a standard hash of the binary file. Being able to output the
header information only will allow users to determine whether their
symbol file is up to date or not.

Patch from David Yen <dyen@chromium.org>.
The thread info expects the struct names as they expect in asm/ptrace.h,
but the header doesn't include that, it includes sys/user.h. Rename the
reg structs to match that header.
Rename the elf_siginfo to _elf_siginfo to avoid conflicting with the one
in the sys/procfs.h. It is only used locally in one place, so we don't
need to update any callers.
Otherwise, drop in aarch64 support into the minidump-2-core file.

This patch makes two changes to breakpad to enable crash reporting to work correctly when the library is inside another file (an archive):
- Do not filter mappings which map an executable at a non-zero offset.
- If such an executable is mapped look in the ELF information for the
shared object name and use that name in the minidump.
Note this change doesn't care about the archive format and isn't Android
specific (though loading the shared library this way is currently only done on Android).

This CL introduces "--sobasedir" command-line option to minidump-2-core.
By default, paths to shared lib files included in generated core file are
formatted as "/var/lib/breakpad/[GUID]libFoobar.so". By using "--sobasedir",
this will be "[user-supplied-path]libFoobar.so".
This option can be used to ease debugging minidump files from developer's local
builds. By specifying "minidump-2-core --sobasedir `pwd`/out/Debug/lib/
foobar.mdmp", user can load the generated core file in gdb without setting up
the symlinks for "/var/lib/breakpad".
