/* Compiled only when USE_STACKOVF is defined, which itself requires
   getrlimit with the RLIMIT_STACK option, and support for alternate
   signal stacks using either SVR4 or BSD interfaces.

   This should compile on ANY system which supports either sigaltstack()
   or sigstack(), with or without <siginfo.h> or another way to determine
   the fault address.

   There is no completely portable way to determine if a SIGSEGV signal
   indicates a stack overflow.  The fault address can be used to infer
   this.  However, the fault address is passed to the signal handler in
   different ways on various systems.  One of three methods are used to
   determine the fault address:

      1. The siginfo parameter (with siginfo.h, i.e., SVR4).

      2. 4th "addr" parameter (assumed if struct sigcontext is defined,
         i.e., SunOS 4.x/BSD).

      3. None (if no method is available).  This case just prints a
      message before aborting with a core dump.  That way the user at
      least knows that it *might* be a recursion problem.

   Jim Avera <jima@netcom.com> writes, on Tue, 5 Oct 93 19:27 PDT:

      "I got interested finding out how a program could catch and
      diagnose its own stack overflow, and ended up modifying m4 to do
      this.  Now it prints a nice error message and exits.

      How it works: SIGSEGV is caught using a separate signal stack.  The
      signal handler declares a stack overflow if the fault address is
      near the end of the stack region, or if the maximum VM address
      space limit has been reached.  Otherwise, it returns to re-execute
      the instruction with SIG_DFL set, so that any real bugs cause a
      core dump as usual."

   Jim Avera <jima@netcom.com> writes, on Fri, 24 Jun 94 12:14 PDT:

      "The stack-overflow detection code would still be needed to avoid a
      SIGSEGV abort if swap space was exhausted at the moment the stack
      tried to grow.  This is probably unlikely to occur with the
      explicit nesting limit option of GNU m4."

   Jim Avera <jima@netcom.com> writes, on Wed, 6 Jul 1994 14:41 PDT:

      "When a stack overflow occurs, a SIGSEGV signal is sent, which by
      default aborts the process with a core dump.

      The code in stackovf.c catches SIGSEGV using a separate signal
      stack.  The signal handler determines whether or not the SIGSEGV
      arose from a stack overflow.  If it is a stack overflow, an
      external function is called (which, in m4, prints a message an
      exits).  Otherwise the SIGSEGV represents an m4 bug, and the signal
      is re-raised with SIG_DFL set, which results in an abort and core
      dump in the usual way.  It seems important (to me) that internal m4
      bugs not be reported as user recursion errors, or vice-versa."  */

/* The following OS-independent procedure is called from the SIGSEGV

   If the OS explicitly identifies a stack overflow trap, either pass
   PARAM_STACKOVF if a stack overflow, or pass PARAM_NOSTACKOVF if not
   (id est, it is a random bounds violation).  Otherwise, if the fault
   address is available, pass the fault address.  Otherwise (if no
   information is available), pass NULL.

   Not given an explicit indication, we compare the fault address with
   the estimated stack limit, and test to see if overall VM space is
   exhausted.

   If a stack overflow is identified, then the external *stackovf_handler
   function is called, which should print an error message and exit.  If

   returning to re-raise the SIGSEGV with SIG_DFL set.  If indeterminate,
   then we do not call *stackovf_handler, but instead print an ambiguous
   message and abort with a core dump.  This only occurs on systems which
   provide no information, but is better than nothing.  */
