Longjmp.S provides setjmp/longjmp and "call a function f on a new stack" support for multiple CPU architectures. Switching stacks involves saving, restoring, and avoiding damage to registers. The file is written in multiple assembly languages.
If you have specific questions, I'm willing to take a shot at answering them. You'll need to look at instruction set reference documents and compiler ABI documents to fully understand each implementation. If you're not experienced with assembly language programming, I'd be tempted to steer clear. Stipulate that the code works, and move on... Thanks...
