So now we have 2 option:

1). Find a ways to get the current function on different platforms in
C90,
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7008485/func-or-function-or-manual-const-char-id
have some information for this way. (lot of #if defined )
2). Just remove __FUNCTION__ from the code. Total 5 __FUNCTION__ in
source code when grep the code.

Personally, I prefer option 2 than option 1, any comments?
