|
* Define macros for handling SIGFPE. |
|
* Lee Busby, LLNL, November, 1996 |
|
* busby1@llnl.gov |
|
* |
|
********************************************* |
|
* Overview of the system for handling SIGFPE: |
|
* |
|
* This file (Include/pyfpe.h) defines a couple of "wrapper" macros for |
|
* insertion into your Python C code of choice. Their proper use is |
|
* discussed below. The file Python/pyfpe.c defines a pair of global |
|
* variables PyFPE_jbuf and PyFPE_counter which are used by the signal |
|
* handler for SIGFPE to decide if a particular exception was protected |
|
* by the macros. The signal handler itself, and code for enabling the |
|
* generation of SIGFPE in the first place, is in a (new) Python module |
|
* named fpectl. This module is standard in every respect. It can be loaded |
|
* either statically or dynamically as you choose, and like any other |
|
* Python module, has no effect until you import it. |
|
* |
|
* In the general case, there are three steps toward handling SIGFPE in any |
|
* Python code: |
|
* |
|
* 1) Add the *_PROTECT macros to your C code as required to protect |
|
* dangerous floating point sections. |
|
* |
|
* 2) Turn on the inclusion of the code by adding the ``--with-fpectl'' |
|
* flag at the time you run configure. If the fpectl or other modules |
|
* which use the *_PROTECT macros are to be dynamically loaded, be |
|
* sure they are compiled with WANT_SIGFPE_HANDLER defined. |
|
* |
|
* 3) When python is built and running, import fpectl, and execute |
|
* fpectl.turnon_sigfpe(). This sets up the signal handler and enables |
|
* generation of SIGFPE whenever an exception occurs. From this point |
|
* on, any properly trapped SIGFPE should result in the Python |
|
* FloatingPointError exception. |
|
* |
|
* Step 1 has been done already for the Python kernel code, and should be |
|
* done soon for the NumPy array package. Step 2 is usually done once at |
|
* python install time. Python's behavior with respect to SIGFPE is not |
|
* changed unless you also do step 3. Thus you can control this new |
|
* facility at compile time, or run time, or both. |
|
* |
|
******************************** |
|
* Using the macros in your code: |
|
* |
|
* static PyObject *foobar(PyObject *self,PyObject *args) |
|
* { |
|
* .... |
|
* PyFPE_START_PROTECT("Error in foobar", return 0) |
|
* result = dangerous_op(somearg1, somearg2, ...); |
|
* PyFPE_END_PROTECT(result) |
|
* .... |
|
* } |
|
* |
|
* If a floating point error occurs in dangerous_op, foobar returns 0 (NULL), |
|
* after setting the associated value of the FloatingPointError exception to |
|
* "Error in foobar". ``Dangerous_op'' can be a single operation, or a block |
|
* of code, function calls, or any combination, so long as no alternate |
|
* return is possible before the PyFPE_END_PROTECT macro is reached. |
|
* |
|
* The macros can only be used in a function context where an error return |
|
* can be recognized as signaling a Python exception. (Generally, most |
|
* functions that return a PyObject * will qualify.) |
|
* |
|
* Guido's original design suggestion for PyFPE_START_PROTECT and |
|
* PyFPE_END_PROTECT had them open and close a local block, with a locally |
|
* defined jmp_buf and jmp_buf pointer. This would allow recursive nesting |
|
* of the macros. The Ansi C standard makes it clear that such local |
|
* variables need to be declared with the "volatile" type qualifier to keep |
|
* setjmp from corrupting their values. Some current implementations seem |
|
* to be more restrictive. For example, the HPUX man page for setjmp says |
|
* |
|
* Upon the return from a setjmp() call caused by a longjmp(), the |
|
* values of any non-static local variables belonging to the routine |
|
* from which setjmp() was called are undefined. Code which depends on |
|
* such values is not guaranteed to be portable. |
|
* |
|
* I therefore decided on a more limited form of nesting, using a counter |
|
* variable (PyFPE_counter) to keep track of any recursion. If an exception |
|
* occurs in an ``inner'' pair of macros, the return will apparently |
|
* come from the outermost level. |

/* |
|
* This (following) is a heck of a way to decrement a counter. However, |
|
* unless the macro argument is provided, code optimizers will sometimes move |
|
* this statement so that it gets executed *before* the unsafe expression |
|
* which we're trying to protect. That pretty well messes things up, |
|
* of course. |
|
* |
|
* If the expression(s) you're trying to protect don't happen to return a |
|
* value, you will need to manufacture a dummy result just to preserve the |
|
* correct ordering of statements. Note that the macro passes the address |
|
* of its argument (so you need to give it something which is addressable). |
|
* If your expression returns multiple results, pass the last such result |
|
* to PyFPE_END_PROTECT. |
|
* |
|
* Note that PyFPE_dummy returns a double, which is cast to int. |
|
* This seeming insanity is to tickle the Floating Point Unit (FPU). |
|
* If an exception has occurred in a preceding floating point operation, |
|
* some architectures (notably Intel 80x86) will not deliver the interrupt |
|
* until the *next* floating point operation. This is painful if you've |
|
* already decremented PyFPE_counter. |
