The context is modified so that it will continue execution by invoking .Fn func with the arguments provided. The .Fa argc argument must be equal to the number of additional arguments provided to .Fn makecontext and also equal to the number of arguments to .Fn func , or else the behavior is undefined.

p The .Fa "ucp->uc_link" argument must be initialized before calling .Fn makecontext and determines the action to take when .Fn func returns: if equal to .Dv NULL , the process exits; otherwise, .Fn setcontext "ucp->uc_link" is implicitly invoked.
p The .Fn swapcontext function saves the current thread context in .Fa "*oucp" and makes .Fa "*ucp" the currently active context. .Sh RETURN VALUES If successful, .Fn swapcontext returns zero; otherwise -1 is returned and the global variable .Va errno is set appropriately. .Sh ERRORS The .Fn swapcontext function will fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er ENOMEM There is not enough stack space in .Fa ucp to complete the operation. .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr setcontext 3 , .Xr ucontext 3
