See discussion in bug 1517739, which is almost, but not quite, the same thing.

aarch64 windows uses a custom unwind information format to describe
how to unwind from within functions. We need to parse that
information to describe to Breakpad how to unwind stacks for minidump
analysis.

Thanks for this, I'll review it tomorrow first thing. Since these changes happen into the part of Breakpad we haven't forked of it would be nice to push them upstream but I'm OK with landing them first directly in mozilla-central because we need them ASAP.

Backed out changeset b171bfdb308f (bug 1529355) for build bustage

Works on my machine, but I guess that's not sufficient proof. Will also fix up the assertion errors...

Nathan, do you have time to finish this? I can take over it (and push it upstream) if you're too busy.

I do have time to finish this; the problem I ran into was that clang (and, presumably, Rust) emit bogus unwind information for some functions, which causes dump_syms to wander off into the weeds. I haven't had time to dive into LLVM yet, though the bug I filed (https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40876) sounds like it might not be too hard to fix.

I see, we're hitting all sort of corner cases lately with debuginfo :-/
