SYNOPSIS
       Command: [flag]... file... [library]...

DESCRIPTION
       The  Ucontext  Access  interfaces  allow	 an  application to access the
       Integrity register state contained inside the opaque  structure	within
       the user context structure.

       In all these interfaces, is a pointer to a passed to the application as
       the third argument to a signal  handler,	 allocated  by	the  user  and
       filled in with or read from an application file.

       Because	a syscall occurs on a function call boundary, contexts created
       in a syscall omit  scratch  registers  and  other  specific  values  as
       detailed below.

       To  use	any of these functions, link in the ucontext access library by
       specifying on the compiler or linker command line.

   Individual Interface Descriptions
       Returns (in the location referenced by the
		 argument) zero if the context was created in a syscall	 or  a
		 non-zero  value  if the context was created while handling an
		 interruption that occurred while running user code.

       Returns (in the
		 array) the saved values of the Static	General	 Registers  in
		 the range through + inclusive, and (in the argument) the cor‐
		 responding NaT bit values.   Only  Static  General  Registers
		 (GR1-GR31)  may be read with this interface.  Stacked General
		 Registers (GR32-GR127) must be	 read  from  the  RSE  backing
		 store, or the RSE Backing Store overflow area.	 (See below.)

		 The NaT bits corresponding to the requested General Registers
		 will be in the corresponding bits of NaT.  For example,  rep‐
		 resents the Nat Bit for GR5.

		 If  the  context  was created in a syscall, scratch registers
		 (GR2, GR3 and GR14-GR31) will read as

       Overwrites the saved values of the  Static  General  Registers  in  the
       range
		 through  + inclusive, with the contents of the first elements
		 of the array, and overwrites the corresponding NaT bits  with
		 bits  from  the  argument.   Only  Static  General  Registers
		 (GR1-GR31) may be written with this interface.	 Stacked  Gen‐
		 eral  Registers (GR32-GR127) must be written to the RSE back‐
		 ing store, or the RSE	Backing	 Store	overflow  area.	  (See
		 below.)

		 The NaT bits corresponding to the specified General Registers
		 must be in the corresponding bits of NaT.  For	 example,  the
		 NaT bit for GR5 will be overwritten with

		 array) the saved values of the Branch Registers in the	 range
		 through + inclusive.

		 (BR6-BR7) will read as

       Returns (in the
		 argument) the saved value of the  register.   By  convention,
		 this  value  reflects	the effects of the instruction used to
		 enter a syscall or the instruction used in handling an inter‐
		 ruption.   To	find  the  value that will be in when the next
		 instruction is executed the caller must:

		 1)  Call to determine whether the context was	created	 in  a
		     syscall or while handling an interruption.

		 2)  Call to fetch the current frame marker.

		 3)  Adjust  the  value	 by (for a syscall context) or (for an
		     interruption context).

WARNINGS
       Only minimal argument checking is performed.   The  caller  must
       take  care  not	to  write invalid or out-of-range values to any
       register or register field.  The effects	 of  returning	from  a
       signal  handler	or  calling after overwriting any register with
       invalid or out-of-range values are undefined.
