Have not used it myself but looks like there is StackAnalyzer[0]. Have done it myself by adding analysis to angr[1] but it pretty much boils down to trying to solving the halting problem for many large programs (an unbounded recursion or alloca makes the max stack size infinite)

For rust code, I have found https://github.com/japaric/cargo-call-stack to be the best available option, as it does take advantage of how Rust types are implemented in LLVM-IR to handle function pointers / dynamic dispatch a little better. An even better solution would try to use MIR type information as well to further narrow down targets of dynamic calls in a Rust-specific way, but no such tool exists that I know of.
