// File: failure_signal_handler.h
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// This file configures the Abseil *failure signal handler* to capture and dump
// useful debugging information (such as a stacktrace) upon program failure.
//
// To use the failure signal handler, call `absl::InstallFailureSignalHandler()`
// very early in your program, usually in the first few lines of main():
//
// int main(int argc, char** argv) {
// // Initialize the symbolizer to get a human-readable stack trace
// absl::InitializeSymbolizer(argv[0]);
//
// absl::FailureSignalHandlerOptions options;
// absl::InstallFailureSignalHandler(options);
// DoSomethingInteresting();
// return 0;
// }
//
// Any program that raises a fatal signal (such as `SIGSEGV`, `SIGILL`,
// `SIGFPE`, `SIGABRT`, `SIGTERM`, `SIGBUG`, and `SIGTRAP`) will call the
// installed failure signal handler and provide debugging information to stderr.
//
// Note that you should *not* install the Abseil failure signal handler more
// than once. You may, of course, have another (non-Abseil) failure signal
// handler installed (which would be triggered if Abseil's failure signal
// handler sets `call_previous_handler` to `true`).

// (which normally terminates the program).
//
// IMPORTANT: If true, the chained fatal signal handlers must not try to
// recover from the fatal signal. Instead, they should terminate the program
// via some mechanism, like raising the default handler for the signal, or by

// as a log file. This function will also be called with null data, as a hint
// to flush any buffered data before the program may be terminated. Consider
// flushing any buffered data in all calls to this function.
//
// Since this function runs within a signal handler, it should be
