69/*
70 * This library consists of only three files
71 * coro.h, coro.c and LICENSE (and optionally README)
72 *
73 * It implements what is known as coroutines, in a hopefully
74 * portable way. At the moment you have to define which kind
75 * of implementation flavour you want:
76 *
77 * -DCORO_UCONTEXT
78 *
79 * This flavour uses SUSv2's get/set/swap/makecontext functions that
80 * unfortunately only newer unices support.
81 *
82 * -DCORO_SJLJ
83 *
84 * This flavour uses SUSv2's setjmp/longjmp and sigaltstack functions to
85 * do it's job. Coroutine creation is much slower than UCONTEXT, but
86 * context switching is often a bit cheaper. It should work on almost
87 * all unices.
88 *
89 * -DCORO_LINUX
90 *
91 * Old GNU/Linux systems (<= glibc-2.1) only work with this implementation
92 * (it is very fast and therefore recommended over other methods, but
93 * doesn't work with anything newer).
94 *
95 * -DCORO_LOSER
96 *
97 * Microsoft's highly proprietary platform doesn't support sigaltstack, and
98 * this automatically selects a suitable workaround for this platform.
99 * (untested)
100 *
101 * -DCORO_IRIX
102 *
103 * SGI's version of Microsoft's NT ;)
104 *
105 * -DCORO_ASM
106 *
107 * Handcoded assembly, known to work only on a few architectures/ABI:
108 * ELF Linux x86 && amd64 when gcc is used and optimisation is turned on.
109 *
110 * -DCORO_PTHREAD
111 *
112 * Use the pthread API. You have to provide <pthread.h> and -lpthread.
113 *
114 * If you define neither of these symbols, coro.h will try to autodetect
115 * the model. This currently works for CORO_LOSER only. For the other
116 * alternatives you should check (e.g. using autoconf) and define the
117 * following symbols: HAVE_UCONTEXT_H / HAVE_SETJMP_H / HAVE_SIGALTSTACK.
