./devel/libsigsegv, Library for handling page faults in user mode

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.14, Package name: libsigsegv-2.14, Maintainer: martijn.van.buul

GNU libsigsegv is a library for handling page faults in user mode. A page
fault occurs when a program tries to access a region of memory that is
currently unavailable. Catching and handling a page fault is a useful
technique for implementing:

* Pageable virtual memory
* Memory-mapped access to persistent databases
* Generational garbage collectors
* Stack overflow handlers
* Distributed shared memory

Log message:
all: migrate several HOMEPAGEs to https

pkglint --only "https instead of http" -r -F

With manual adjustments afterwards since pkglint 19.4.4 fixed a few
indentations in unrelated lines.

This mainly affects projects hosted at SourceForce, as well as
freedesktop.org, CTAN and GNU.

New in 2.11:

* Added support for catching stack overflow on Linux/SPARC.

* Provide a correct value for SIGSTKSZ on 64-bit AIX and on HP-UX. The one
  defined by these systems is too small.
