<p>The <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> function saves the current stack
environment and, optionally, the current signal mask. The stack environment and
signal mask saved by <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> can subsequently be restored
by <strong>siglongjmp()</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> is similar to <strong>setjmp()</strong>, except
for the optional capability of saving the signal mask. Like <strong>
setjmp()</strong> and <strong>longjmp()</strong>, the <strong>
sigsetjmp()</strong> and <strong>siglongjmp()</strong> functions provide a way
to perform a nonlocal "goto."</p>
<p>A call to <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> causes it to save the current stack
environment in <em>env</em>. If the value of the <em>savemask</em> parameter is
nonzero, <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> also saves the current signal mask in
<em>env</em>. A subsequent call to <strong>siglongjmp()</strong> does the
following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Restores the saved environment and signal mask (if saved by <strong>
sigsetjmp()</strong>).<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Returns control to a point corresponding to the <strong>
sigsetjmp()</strong> call.</li>
</ul>
<p>The values of all variables (except register variables) accessible to the
function receiving control contain the values they had when <strong>
siglongjmp()</strong> was called. The values of register variables are
unpredictable. Nonvolatile automatic storage variables that are changed between
calls to <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> and <strong>siglongjmp()</strong> are
also unpredictable.</p>

<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<!-- Use this if there are no authorities and locks. -->
<p>None.</p>
<br>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong><em>env</em></strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) An array type for holding the information needed to restore a
calling environment.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong><em>savemask</em></strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) An indicator used to determine if the current signal mask of the
thread is to be saved. This value may be zero.</dd>

<h3>Return Value</h3>
<table cellpadding="5">
<!-- cols="10 90" -->

<td align="left" valign="top"><em>0</em></td>
<td align="left" valign="top"><strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> was called to save
the stack environment and, optionally, the signal mask. It may have been either
successful or not successful.</td>

<td align="left" valign="top"><em>val</em></td>
<td align="left" valign="top"><strong>siglongjmp()</strong> caused control to
be transferred to the place in the user's program where <strong>
sigsetjmp()</strong> was issued. The value returned is the value specified on
<strong>siglongjmp()</strong> for the <em>val</em> parameter (or 1 if the value

<h3>Error Conditions</h3>
<p>The <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> function does not return an error.</p>
<br>
<h3>Usage Notes</h3>
<p>The <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong>-<strong>siglongjmp()</strong> pair and the
<strong>setjmp()</strong>-<strong>longjmp()</strong> pair cannot be intermixed.
A stack environment and signal mask saved by <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> can
be restored only by <strong>siglongjmp()</strong>.</p>

<h3>Example</h3>
<p>See <a href="../apiref/aboutapis.htm#codedisclaimer">Code disclaimer information</a>
for information pertaining to code examples.</p>
<p>This example saves the stack environment and signal mask at the following
statement:</p>
<pre>
if( sigsetjmp(mark,1) != 0 ) { ...
</pre>
<p>When the system first performs the <samp>if</samp> statement, it saves the
environment and signal mask in <em>mark</em> and sets the condition to false
because <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> returns a <samp>0</samp> when it saves the
environment. The program prints the following message:</p>
<pre>
sigsetjmp() has been called
</pre>
<p>The subsequent call to function <strong>p()</strong> tests for a local error
condition, which can cause it to perform <strong>siglongjmp()</strong> (in this
example as a result of calling a signal catching function). Control is returned
to the original <strong>sigsetjmp()</strong> function using the environment
saved in <em>mark</em> and the restored signal mask. This time, the condition
is true because -<samp>1</samp> is the return value from <strong>
siglongjmp()</strong>. The program then performs the statements in the block
and prints the following:</p>
<pre>
siglongjmp() function was called
</pre>
<p>Then the program performs the <strong>recover()</strong> function and
exits.</p>
<p>Here is the program:</p>
<pre>
#include &lt;signal.h&gt;
#include &lt;setjmp.h&gt;
#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
sigset_t sigset;
sigjmp_buf mark;
void catcher( int );
void p( void );
void recover( void );
int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) {
int result;
/*
* Block the SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2 signals. This set of
* signals will be saved as part of the environment
* by the sigsetjmp() function.
*/
sigemptyset( &amp;sigset );
sigaddset( &amp;sigset, SIGUSR1 );
sigaddset( &amp;sigset, SIGUSR2 );
sigprocmask( SIG_SETMASK, &amp;sigset, NULL );
if( sigsetjmp( mark, 1 ) != 0 ) {
printf( "siglongjmp() function was called\n" );
recover();
result=0;
}
else {
printf( "sigsetjmp() has been called\n" );
p();
sigprocmask( SIG_SETMASK, NULL, &amp;sigset );
if( sigismember( &amp;sigset, SIGUSR2 ) )
printf( "siglongjmp() was not called\n" );
result=-1;
}
printf( "return to main with result %d\n", result);
return( result );
}
void p( void ) {
struct sigaction sigact;
int error=0;
printf( "performing function p()\n" );
/* Send signal handler in case error condition is detected */
sigemptyset( &amp;sigact.sa_mask );
sigact.sa_flags = 0;
sigact.sa_handler = catcher;
sigaction( SIGUSR2, &amp;sigact, NULL );
sigdelset( &amp;sigset, SIGUSR2 );
sigprocmask( SIG_SETMASK, &amp;sigset, NULL );
/* After some processing an error condition is detected */
error=-1;
/* Call catcher() function if error is detected */
if( error != 0 ) {
printf( "error condition detected, send SIGUSR2 signal\n" );
kill( getpid(), SIGUSR2 );
}
printf( "return from catcher() function is an error\n" );
}
void recover( void ) {
printf( "taking recovery action\n" );
sigprocmask( SIG_SETMASK, NULL, &amp;sigset );
if( sigismember( &amp;sigset, SIGUSR2 ) )
printf( "signal mask was restored after siglongjmp()\n" );
}
void catcher( int signo ) {
printf( "in catcher() before siglongjmp()\n" );
siglongjmp( mark, -1 );
printf( "in catcher() after siglongjmp() is an error\n" );
}
</pre>
<br>
<h3>Output:</h3>
<pre>
sigsetjmp() has been called
performing function p()
error condition detected, send SIGUSR2 signal
in catcher() before siglongjmp()
siglongjmp() function was called
taking recovery action
signal mask was restored after siglongjmp()
return to main with result 0
