69 The MSG argument is an error message. The ERRNUM argument, if
70 greater than 0, holds an errno value. The MSG buffer may become
71 invalid after this function returns.
72
73 As a special case, the ERRNUM argument will be passed as -1 if no
74 debug info can be found for the executable, or if the debug info
75 exists but has an unsupported version, but the function requires
76 debug info (e.g., backtrace_full, backtrace_pcinfo). The MSG in
77 this case will be something along the lines of "no debug info".
78 Similarly, ERRNUM will be passed as -1 if there is no symbol table,
79 but the function requires a symbol table (e.g., backtrace_syminfo).

89 of the executable file; if it is NULL the library will try
90 system-specific path names. If not NULL, FILENAME must point to a
91 permanent buffer. If THREADED is non-zero the state may be
92 accessed by multiple threads simultaneously, and the library will
93 use appropriate atomic operations. If THREADED is zero the state
94 may only be accessed by one thread at a time. This returns a state
95 pointer on success, NULL on error. If an error occurs, this will
96 call the ERROR_CALLBACK routine.
