_LONGJMP(P) _LONGJMP(P)
NAME
_longjmp, _setjmp - non-local goto
SYNOPSIS
#include <setjmp.h>
void _longjmp(jmp_buf env, int val);
int _setjmp(jmp_buf env);
DESCRIPTION
The _longjmp() and _setjmp() functions shall be equivalent to longjmp() and
setjmp(), respectively, with the additional restriction that _longjmp() and
_setjmp() shall not manipulate the signal mask.
If _longjmp() is called even though env was never initialized by a call to
_setjmp(), or when the last such call was in a function that has since returned,
the results are undefined.
RETURN VALUE
Refer to longjmp() and setjmp() .
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
None.
APPLICATION USAGE
If _longjmp() is executed and the environment in which _setjmp() was executed no
longer exists, errors can occur. The conditions under which the environment of the
_setjmp() no longer exists include exiting the function that contains the _setjmp()
call, and exiting an inner block with temporary storage. This condition might not
be detectable, in which case the _longjmp() occurs and, if the environment no
longer exists, the contents of the temporary storage of an inner block are unpre-
dictable. This condition might also cause unexpected process termination. If the
function has returned, the results are undefined.
Passing longjmp() a pointer to a buffer not created by setjmp(), passing _longjmp()
a pointer to a buffer not created by _setjmp(), passing siglongjmp() a pointer to a
buffer not created by sigsetjmp(), or passing any of these three functions a buffer
that has been modified by the user can cause all the problems listed above, and
more.
The _longjmp() and _setjmp() functions are included to support programs written to
historical system interfaces. New applications should use siglongjmp() and
sigsetjmp() respectively.
RATIONALE
None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
The _longjmp() and _setjmp() functions may be marked LEGACY in a future version.
