-- This package provides a implementation of stack checking operations
-- using comparison with stack base and limit.
pragma Restrictions (No_Elaboration_Code);
-- We want to guarantee the absence of elaboration code because the
-- binder does not handle references to this package.
pragma Polling (Off);
-- Turn off polling, we do not want polling to take place during stack
-- checking operations. It causes infinite loops and other problems.
package System.Stack_Checking.Operations is
procedure Update_Stack_Cache (Stack : Stack_Access);
-- Set the stack cache for the current task. Note that this is only
-- for optimization purposes, nothing can be assumed about the
-- contents of the cache at any time, see Set_Stack_Info.
procedure Invalidate_Stack_Cache (Any_Stack : Stack_Access);
-- Invalidate cache entries for the task T that owns Any_Stack.
-- This causes the Set_Stack_Info function to be called during
-- the next stack check done by T. This can be used to interrupt
-- task T asynchronously.
-- Stack_Check should be called in loops for this to work reliably.
function Stack_Check (Stack_Address : System.Address) return Stack_Access;
-- This version of Stack_Check should not be inlined.
