<p><font size=+1><b>DESCRIPTION     </b></font><br>

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>

    These routines are useful for dealing with errors and interrupts
    encountered in a low-level subroutine of a program. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    <i>Setjmp</i> saves its stack environment in <i>env</i> for later use by <i>longjmp</i>.
    It returns value 0. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    <i>Longjmp</i> restores the environment saved by the last call of <i>setjmp</i>.
    It then causes execution to continue as if the call of <i>setjmp</i>
    had just returned with value <i>val</i>. The invoker of <i>setjmp</i> must not
    itself have returned in the interim. All accessible data have
    values as of the time <i>longjmp</i> was called. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    <i>Notejmp</i> is the same as <i>longjmp</i> except that it is to be called
    from within a note handler (see <a href="../man3/notify.html"><i>notify</i>(3)</a>). The <i>uregs</i> argument
    should be the first argument passed to the note handler. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    <i>Setjmp</i> and <i>longjmp</i> can also be used to switch stacks.<br>

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>

    <i>Notejmp</i> cannot recover from an address trap or bus error (page
    fault) on the 680x0 architectures. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    To avoid name conflicts with the underlying system, <i>setjmp</i>, <i>longjmp</i>,
    <i>notejmp</i>, and <i>jmp_buf</i> are preprocessor macros defined as <i>p9setjmp</i>,
    <i>p9longjmp</i>, <i>p9notejmp</i>, and <i>p9jmp_buf</i>; see <a href="../man3/intro.html"><i>intro</i>(3)</a>. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    <i>P9setjmp</i> is implemented as a preprocessor macro that calls <i>sigsetjmp</i>
    (see Unix&#8217;s <i>setjmp</i>(3)).<br>
