<h4><a name="tag_03_349_03"></a>DESCRIPTION</h4>
<blockquote>
<div class="box"><sup>[<a href="javascript:open_code('CX')">CX</a>]</sup> <img src="../images/opt-start.gif" alt="[Option Start]"
border="0"> The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO&nbsp;C standard. Any conflict between the
requirements described here and the ISO&nbsp;C standard is unintentional. This volume of IEEE&nbsp;Std&nbsp;1003.1-2001 defers to
the ISO&nbsp;C standard. <img src="../images/opt-end.gif" alt="[Option End]" border="0"></div>
<p>The <i>longjmp</i>() function shall restore the environment saved by the most recent invocation of <a href=
"../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a> in the same thread, with the corresponding <b>jmp_buf</b> argument. If there is no
such invocation, or if the function containing the invocation of <a href="../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a> has
terminated execution in the interim, or if the invocation of <a href="../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a> was within the
scope of an identifier with variably modified type and execution has left that scope in the interim, the behavior is undefined.
<sup>[<a href="javascript:open_code('CX')">CX</a>]</sup> <img src="../images/opt-start.gif" alt="[Option Start]" border="0">
&nbsp;It is unspecified whether <i>longjmp</i>() restores the signal mask, leaves the signal mask unchanged, or restores it to its
value at the time <a href="../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a> was called. <img src="../images/opt-end.gif" alt=
"[Option End]" border="0"></p>
<p>All accessible objects have values, and all other components of the abstract machine have state (for example, floating-point
status flags and open files), as of the time <i>longjmp</i>() was called, except that the values of objects of automatic storage
duration are unspecified if they meet all the following conditions:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>They are local to the function containing the corresponding <a href="../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a>
invocation.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>They do not have volatile-qualified type.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>They are changed between the <a href="../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a> invocation and <i>longjmp</i>() call.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p><sup>[<a href="javascript:open_code('CX')">CX</a>]</sup> <img src="../images/opt-start.gif" alt="[Option Start]" border="0"> As
it bypasses the usual function call and return mechanisms, <i>longjmp</i>() shall execute correctly in contexts of interrupts,
signals, and any of their associated functions. However, if <i>longjmp</i>() is invoked from a nested signal handler (that is, from
a function invoked as a result of a signal raised during the handling of another signal), the behavior is undefined.</p>
<p>The effect of a call to <i>longjmp</i>() where initialization of the <b>jmp_buf</b> structure was not performed in the calling
thread is undefined. <img src="../images/opt-end.gif" alt="[Option End]" border="0"></p>
</blockquote>
<h4><a name="tag_03_349_04"></a>RETURN VALUE</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>After <i>longjmp</i>() is completed, program execution continues as if the corresponding invocation of <a href=
"../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a> had just returned the value specified by <i>val</i>. The <i>longjmp</i>() function
shall not cause <a href="../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a> to return 0; if <i>val</i> is 0, <a href=
"../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a> shall return 1.</p>

</blockquote>
<h4><a name="tag_03_349_07"></a>APPLICATION USAGE</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>Applications whose behavior depends on the value of the signal mask should not use <i>longjmp</i>() and <a href=
"../functions/setjmp.html"><i>setjmp</i>()</a>, since their effect on the signal mask is unspecified, but should instead use the <a
href="../functions/siglongjmp.html"><i>siglongjmp</i>()</a> and <a href="../functions/sigsetjmp.html"><i>sigsetjmp</i>()</a>
functions (which can save and restore the signal mask under application control).</p>

<h4><a name="tag_03_349_11"></a>CHANGE HISTORY</h4>

<p>First released in Issue 1. Derived from Issue 1 of the SVID.</p>
</blockquote>
<h4><a name="tag_03_349_12"></a>Issue 5</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>The DESCRIPTION is updated for alignment with the POSIX Threads Extension.</p>
</blockquote>
<h4><a name="tag_03_349_13"></a>Issue 6</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>Extensions beyond the ISO&nbsp;C standard are marked.</p>
<p>The following new requirements on POSIX implementations derive from alignment with the Single UNIX Specification:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>The DESCRIPTION now explicitly makes <i>longjmp</i>()'s effect on the signal mask unspecified.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>The DESCRIPTION is updated for alignment with the ISO/IEC&nbsp;9899:1999 standard.</p>
