IA64 HP-UX Unwind patch


I sent this out a while back but just realised I sent it to gcc-patches
and forgot to also send it to libstdc++.

This patch is the final patch for using HP-UX's libunwind instead of the
GCC unwind code on IA64.  The problem I have run into is two ABI
differences between the HP Unwind and the GCC Unwind.

The first is what _URC_ code does _Unwind_DeleteException call the
cleanup routine with.  HP uses _URC_NO_REASON and GCC uses
_URC_FOREIGN_EXCEPTION_CAUGHT.  My fix for this was to create
_URC_EXPECTED_BY_CLEANUP in unwind.h and define it to
_URC_FOREIGN_EXCEPTION_CAUGHT if it was not already defined and then use
that in __gxx_exception_cleanup (libstdc++-v3/libsupc++/eh_throw.cc).
Then I put my own definition of _URC_EXPECTED_BY_CLEANUP in
libstdc++-v3/config/os/hpux/os_defines.h for HP-UX.

The second problem is with _Unwind_SetIP.  Even in ILP32 mode, the HP-UX
Unwind library expects you to pass in a 64 bit pointer on IA64.  So, I
created a macro in os_defines.h called UNWIND_SETIP to use instead of
calling _Unwind_SetIP if it is defined.  I also ifdef'ed the
_Unwind_SetIP declaration in unwind.h so I could have my own version in
os_defines.h with different arg types.

My definition of UNWIND_SETIP uses a builtin called __extend_ptr to turn
the 32 bit pointer in landing_pad into a 64 bit pointer.  I did not
include the implementation of this builtin in this patch but thought I
would do that seperately.

One possible change that I considered but was not able to manage was to
use the system unwind.h instead of the one in GCC when building
libstdc++-v3 but since they are both called unwind.h I couldn't figure
out how to tell unwind-cxx.h to use a system header instead of the GCC
one.  Brackets instead of quotes had no effect.  If I did this I
wouldn't have to include my own _Unwind_SetIP declaration and I could
put the default _URC_EXPECTED_BY_CLEANUP in eh_throw.c instead of
unwind.h and not mess with any GCC code but only with libstdc++-v3.

I can't think of any way to avoid the ifdef around _Unwind_SetIP though.

Comments?

	* gcc/unwind.h (_URC_EXPECTED_BY_CLEANUP): New Macro with
	default definition.
	(_Unwind_SetIP): Prototype only if UNWIND_SETIP is not set.
	* libstdc++-v3/config/os/hpux/os_defines.h (_URC_EXPECTED_BY_CLEANUP):
	Define to match HP libunwind.
	(UNWIND_SETIP) Define with new modified arguments.
	* libstdc++-v3/libsupc++/eh_throw.cc (__gxx_exception_cleanup):
	Use _URC_EXPECTED_BY_CLEANUP instead of _URC_FOREIGN_EXCEPTION_CAUGHT.
	* libstdc++-v3/libsupc++/eh_personality.cc (PERSONALITY_FUNCTION):
	Call UNWIND_SETIP instead of _Unwind_SetIP if defined.
