1810 (for instance abort), the call may be the very last instruction
1811 in the calling function. The resume address will point after the
1812 call and may be at the beginning of a different function
1815 If THIS_FRAME is a signal frame or dummy frame, then we should
1816 not adjust the unwound PC. For a dummy frame, GDB pushed the
1817 resume address manually onto the stack. For a signal frame, the

1819 handler (e.g. GNU/Linux), or invoked the trampoline which called
1820 the signal handler - but in either case the signal handler is
1821 expected to return to the trampoline. So in both of these

1824 is a normal function.

1830 signal or exception (next frame will be SIGTRAMP_FRAME),
1831 or debugger-induced function call (next frame will be
1832 DUMMY_FRAME). So we only need to adjust the PC if
1833 NEXT_FRAME is a normal function.
1835 We check the type of NEXT_FRAME first, since it is already
1836 known; frame type is determined by the unwinder, and since
1837 we have THIS_FRAME we've already selected an unwinder for
1840 If the next frame is inlined, we need to keep going until we find
