2013-07-24change jmp_buf to share an underlying type and struct tag with sigjmp_bufRich Felker-1/+1
this is necessary to meet the C++ ABI target. alternatives were considered to avoid the size increase for non-sig jmp_buf objects, but they seemed to have worse properties. moreover, the relative size increase is only extreme on x86[_64]; one way of interpreting this is that, if the size increase from this patch makes jmp_buf use too much memory, then the program was already using too much memory when built for non-x86 archs.
2012-07-03jmp_buf overhaul fixing several issuesRich Felker-1/+1
on arm, the location of the saved-signal-mask flag and mask were off by one between sigsetjmp and siglongjmp, causing incorrect behavior restoring the signal mask. this is because the siglongjmp code assumed an extra slot was in the non-sig jmp_buf for the flag, but arm did not have this. now, the extra slot is removed for all archs since it was useless. also, arm eabi requires jmp_buf to have 8-byte alignment. we achieve that using long long as the type rather than with non-portable gcc attribute tags.
2011-09-18initial commit of the arm portRich Felker-0/+1
this port assumes eabi calling conventions, eabi linux syscall convention, and presence of the kernel helpers at 0xffff0f?0 needed for threads support. otherwise it makes very few assumptions, and the code should work even on armv4 without thumb support, as well as on systems with thumb interworking. the bits headers declare this a little endian system, but as far as i can tell the code should work equally well on big endian. some small details are probably broken; so far, testing has been limited to qemu/aboriginal linux.
