[dpdk-dev] 1/6] eal: introduce oops handling API

From: Jerin Jacob <jerinj at marvell.com>

Introducing oops handling API with following specification
and enable stub implementation for Linux and FreeBSD.

On rte_eal_init() invocation, the EAL library installs the
oops handler for the essential signals.
The rte_oops_signals_enabled() API provides the list
of signals the library installed by the EAL.

The default EAL oops handler decodes the oops message using
rte_oops_decode() and then calls the signal handler
installed by the application before invoking the rte_eal_init().
This scheme will also enable the use of the default coredump
handler(for gdb etc.) provided by OS if the application does
not install any specific signal handler.

The second case where the application installs the signal
handler after the rte_eal_init() invocation, rte_oops_decode()
provides the means of decoding the oops message in
the application's fault handler.
