FreeBSD [11] support?

[AlmightyOatmeal]

Any plans to support FreeBSD 11 or FreeBSD in general?

Is there something about FreeBSD that makes vmprof not work?

$ sudo -H pip install --upgrade vmprof

no, there are just a few places that are platform dependent. other unix variants simply are not tested. It should be easy to modify the setup.py file to make it compile on other unix variants.

ok, this seems to work... can you give that a try (do not pull from pypi, but from this repo directly)? You need to install some packages on freebsd (such as libunwind and python).

Ok, just tried this on FreeBSD 14-current/aarch64 and got:

My 11/amd64 box doesn't have native unwind.h on it, and don't want to install the libunwind package, so can't test there.

I'm willing to pair and/or provide access to a box to help fix this if that would help. or, as you can see, I can test out branches very easily if provided.
