LIBJAVA PORT to DG/UX (QUESTIONS)



Hello,

I am trying to create a port of libjava to DG/ux.
(Data General Unix).
I will send another mail about some other changes.

For the time I need some help with the file i386-signal.h:

i586-dg-dgux should use the include/i386-signal.h
I have make it i386-dgux-signal.h as the struct in
sys/signal.h is sigcontext and not sigcontext_struct.

In the DG/ux header sys/signal.h , sigcontext struct
is (unlike linux) as:

struct  sigcontext {
        int     sc_onstack;             /* sigstack state to restore */
        int     sc_mask;                /* signal mask to restore */
        int     sc_sp;                  /* sp to restore */
        int     sc_pc;                  /* pc to retore */
        int     sc_ps;                  /* psl to restore */
        int     sc_eax;                 /* eax to restore */
        int     sc_edx;                 /* edx to restore */
        };

**      %par()
**      This structure describes the information pushed onto a stack
**      when a signal is delivered.  This is used by the sigret()
**      system call to restore state following execution of the signal
**      handler.
**

From the point of view of i386-signal.h ,obviously eip is in DG/ux
sc_pc. Aslo eax , edx are sc_eax, sc_edx.
But what about the ebp stuff? I have no linux machine around
to have a look in the sigcontext and see what ebp does.
Note: I just had a look in linux. ebp is in sigcontext struct.
I sucspect that we want to use ebp for something and we restore
it after.
Anyway I am not sure how we should modify the file i386-signal.h
for ix86 DG/ux. (for the ebp stuff).
Could the developer give me his opinion ?
Here is what I have done:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
// i386-dgux-signal.h - Catch runtime signals and turn them into
exceptions.
