MAKECONTEXT(3) Linux Programmer's Manual MAKECONTEXT(3)
NAME
makecontext, swapcontext - manipulate user context
SYNOPSIS
#include <ucontext.h>
void makecontext(ucontext_t *ucp, void (*func)(), int argc, ...);
int swapcontext(ucontext_t *oucp, const ucontext_t *ucp);
DESCRIPTION
In a System V-like environment, one has the type ucontext_t defined in
<ucontext.h> and the four functions getcontext(3), setcontext(3), make‐
context() and swapcontext() that allow user-level context switching be‐
tween multiple threads of control within a process.
For the type and the first two functions, see getcontext(3).
The makecontext() function modifies the context pointed to by ucp
(which was obtained from a call to getcontext(3)). Before invoking
makecontext(), the caller must allocate a new stack for this context
and assign its address to ucp->uc_stack, and define a successor context
and assign its address to ucp->uc_link.
When this context is later activated (using setcontext(3) or swapcon‐
text()) the function func is called, and passed the series of integer
(int) arguments that follow argc; the caller must specify the number of
these arguments in argc. When this function returns, the successor
context is activated. If the successor context pointer is NULL, the
thread exits.
The swapcontext() function saves the current context in the structure
pointed to by oucp, and then activates the context pointed to by ucp.
RETURN VALUE
When successful, swapcontext() does not return. (But we may return
later, in case oucp is activated, in which case it looks like swapcon‐
text() returns 0.) On error, swapcontext() returns -1 and sets errno
appropriately.
ERRORS
ENOMEM Insufficient stack space left.
VERSIONS
makecontext() and swapcontext() are provided in glibc since version
2.1.

CONFORMING TO
SUSv2, POSIX.1-2001. POSIX.1-2008 removes the specifications of make‐
context() and swapcontext(), citing portability issues, and recommend‐
ing that applications be rewritten to use POSIX threads instead.
NOTES
The interpretation of ucp->uc_stack is just as in sigaltstack(2),
namely, this struct contains the start and length of a memory area to
be used as the stack, regardless of the direction of growth of the
stack. Thus, it is not necessary for the user program to worry about
this direction.
On architectures where int and pointer types are the same size (e.g.,
x86-32, where both types are 32 bits), you may be able to get away with
passing pointers as arguments to makecontext() following argc. How‐
ever, doing this is not guaranteed to be portable, is undefined accord‐
ing to the standards, and won't work on architectures where pointers
are larger than ints. Nevertheless, starting with version 2.8, glibc
makes some changes to makecontext(), to permit this on some 64-bit ar‐
chitectures (e.g., x86-64).
EXAMPLE
The example program below demonstrates the use of getcontext(3), make‐
context(), and swapcontext(). Running the program produces the follow‐
ing output:
$ ./a.out
main: swapcontext(&uctx_main, &uctx_func2)
func2: started
func2: swapcontext(&uctx_func2, &uctx_func1)
func1: started
func1: swapcontext(&uctx_func1, &uctx_func2)
func2: returning
func1: returning
main: exiting

/* Successor context is f1(), unless argc > 1 */
uctx_func2.uc_link = (argc > 1) ? NULL : &uctx_func1;
makecontext(&uctx_func2, func2, 0);
