PROLOG
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the correspond- ing Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux. NAME
setjmp - set jump point for a non-local goto SYNOPSIS
#include <setjmp.h> int setjmp(jmp_buf env); DESCRIPTION
A call to setjmp() shall save the calling environment in its env argument for later use by longjmp(). It is unspecified whether setjmp() is a macro or a function. If a macro definition is suppressed in order to access an actual function, or a program defines an external identifier with the name setjmp, the behavior is undefined. An application shall ensure that an invocation of setjmp() appears in one of the following contexts only: * The entire controlling expression of a selection or iteration statement * One operand of a relational or equality operator with the other operand an integral constant expression, with the resulting expression being the entire controlling expression of a selection or iteration statement * The operand of a unary '!' operator with the resulting expression being the entire controlling expression of a selection or iteration * The entire expression of an expression statement (possibly cast to void) If the invocation appears in any other context, the behavior is undefined. RETURN VALUE
If the return is from a direct invocation, setjmp() shall return 0. If the return is from a call to longjmp(), setjmp() shall return a non- zero value. ERRORS
No errors are defined. The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES
None. APPLICATION USAGE
In general, sigsetjmp() is more useful in dealing with errors and interrupts encountered in a low-level subroutine of a program. RATIONALE
None. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None. SEE ALSO

siglongjmp -- non-local goto with signal handling SYNOPSIS
#include <setjmp.h> void siglongjmp(sigjmp_buf env, int val); DESCRIPTION
The siglongjmp() function shall be equivalent to the longjmp() function, except as follows: * References to setjmp() shall be equivalent to sigsetjmp(). * The siglongjmp() function shall restore the saved signal mask if and only if the env argument was initialized by a call to sigsetjmp() with a non-zero savemask argument. RETURN VALUE
After siglongjmp() is completed, program execution shall continue as if the corresponding invocation of sigsetjmp() had just returned the value specified by val. The siglongjmp() function shall not cause sigsetjmp() to return 0; if val is 0, sigsetjmp() shall return the value 1. ERRORS
No errors are defined. The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES
None. APPLICATION USAGE
The distinction between setjmp() or longjmp() and sigsetjmp() or siglongjmp() is only significant for programs which use sigaction(), sig- procmask(), or sigsuspend(). RATIONALE
None. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None. SEE ALSO
