Name
====

* Backtrace module. It comes from [Tengine](http://tengine.taobao.org), an Nginx distribution with quite a few advanced features.

Description
===========

* It can be used to dump backtrace of nginx in case a worker process exits abnormally, e.g. when some signal is received (SIGABR, SIGBUS, SIGFPE, SIGILL, SIGIOT, SIGSEGV). It's quite handy for debugging purpose.
* This module requires the backtrace(3) function in glibc. You can't enable it on systems lack of this function (FreeBSD, Darwin).
