While playing with the new unwinder interfaces I noticed that I was
writing the same extra wrapper callbacks every time. Often one has,
through some other mechanism, a specific thread id that one is interested
in. Then you write a dwfl_getthreads callback just to filter out that one
tid. So this patch adds such convenience wrappers, but also adds a
new callback for a backend to easily get at a specific thread. The
pid backend implements this optimization by directly checking the tid
exists instead of iterating through them all.
This is also useful for eu-stack where it is often convenient to get
the stack of just one thread. That is now implemented through the
new interface when giving "-1" as extra argument.
<- snip ->
dwfl_getthread and dwfl_getthread_frames are convenience functions for
when the user is only interested in one specific thread id of a process.
The can be implemented by just simple wrapper functions that remove and
extra callback layer just to filter on thread id. But they also provide
an optimized path to getting access to just one Dwfl_Thread by providing
and (optional) new callback for provider. The pid_thread_callbacks now
provide pid_getthread that doesn't need to travers all threads anymore.
stack now uses this to implement a new '-1' option that shows just one
specific thread of a process.
