If the fault is handled, then the handler * returns and execution resumes. If it isn't handled, then * sigHandle does its best to pass the signal on to the previously * installed signal handler (sigNext); which it does by signalling * itself using kill(2). * * .sigh.args: The sigaction manual page .source.man documents three * different handler prototypes: ANSI C sa_handler, traditional BSD * sa_handler, and POSIX SA_SIGINFO sa_sigaction. The ANSI C * prototype isn't powerful enough for us (can't get addresses), and * the manual page deprecates the BSD sa_handler in favour of the * POSIX SA_SIGINFO sa_sigaction. In that prototype, the arguments * are: signal number, pointer to signal info structure, pointer to * signal context structure. * * .sigh.context: We use the PROT_SIGINFO_GOOD macro to (usually) check * the info->si_code. The macro is platform dependent and defined in * config.h. We assume that info->si_addr is the fault address. This * assumption turns out to fail for PowerPC Darwin (we use protxcpp.c * there). * * .sigh.mode: The fault type (read/write) does not appear to be * available to the signal handler (see mail archive). */ static void sigHandle(int sig, siginfo_t *info, void *context) /* .sigh.args */ { int e; /* sigset renamed to asigset due to clash with global on Darwin. */ sigset_t asigset, oldset; struct sigaction sa; AVER(sig == PROT_SIGNAL); /* .sigh.context */ if(PROT_SIGINFO_GOOD(info)) { AccessSet mode; Addr base, limit; mode = AccessREAD | AccessWRITE; /* .sigh.mode */ /* We assume that the access is for one word at the address. */ base = (Addr)info->si_addr; /* .sigh.context */ limit = AddrAdd(base, (Size)sizeof(Addr)); /* Offer each protection structure the opportunity to handle the */ /* exception.
