Problem with setjmp/longjmp
- by user294732
The code below is just not working.
Can anybody point out why
#define STACK_SIZE 1524
static void mt_allocate_stack(struct thread_struct *mythrd)
{
unsigned int sp = 0;
void *stck;
stck = (void *)malloc(STACK_SIZE);
sp = (unsigned int)&((stck));
sp = sp + STACK_SIZE;
while((sp % 8) != 0)
sp--;
#ifdef linux
(mythrd->saved_state[0]).__jmpbuf[JB_BP] = (int)sp;
(mythrd->saved_state[0]).__jmpbuf[JB_SP] = (int)sp-500;
#endif
}
void mt_sched()
{
fprintf(stdout,"\n Inside the mt_sched");
fflush(stdout);
if ( current_thread->state == NEW )
{
if ( setjmp(current_thread->saved_state) == 0 )
{
mt_allocate_stack(current_thread);
fprintf(stdout,"\n Jumping to thread = %u",current_thread->thread_id);
fflush(stdout);
longjmp(current_thread->saved_state, 2);
}
else
{
new_fns();
}
}
}
All I am trying to do is to run the new_fns() on a new stack. But is is showing segmentation fault at new_fns().
Can anybody point me out what's wrong.
