- - -Porting to new platforms -======================== - -On Unix systems, where faults are notified to the program through a signal -handler, the core routines in handler-unix.c can be used without -modifications. But they need the following bits of information. Each of -them is stored in a platform dependent file; the file is chosen in configure. - - * List of signals that are sent when an invalid virtual memory address - is accessed, or when the stack overflows. - This is a file among signals-*.h. - configure chooses and sets the variable CFG_SIGNALS. - - * What arguments are passed to a fault handler. - This is a file among fault-*.h. - configure chooses and sets the variable CFG_FAULT. - - * How to determine the stack's virtual memory area. - This is a file among stackvma-*.c. - configure chooses and sets the variable CFG_STACKVMA. - - * How to leave a signal handler that is executing on the alternate - signal stack. - This is a file among leave-*.c. - configure chooses and sets the variable CFG_LEAVE. - -For each of these, the approach should be: - - - Find a way to implement the needed functionality. This might involve - study of the system include files (in particular <signal.h> and - <ucontext.h>) and of the kernel sources. - For CFG_FAULT, the best starting point is to run the tests/sigsegv1 - program with a breakpoint set at 'sigsegv_handler'. - - - Add to configure.in a test whether your new code works. This will - help portability to platforms similar to yours. - Then regenerate the configure script (run "autoconf") and verify - that the test says "yes" on your platform. - - - Create a platform dependent file (e.g. fault-<os>-<cpu>.h) and change - configure.in to choose this particular file when your test says "yes". - Then regenerate the configure script (run "autoconf"). - - - Verify that "make" and "make check" pass. - -For non-Unix systems, a separate handler-<os>.c is likely to be needed. |
