问题
I wrote a signal handler to catch FPE errors. I need to continue execution even if this happens. I receive a ucontext_t as parameter, I can change the bad operand from 0 to another value but the FPU context is still bad and I run into an infinite loop ?
Does someone already manupulate the ucontext_t structure on Linux ?
I finally found a way to handle these situations by clearing the status flag of ucontext_t like this:
...
const long int cFPUStatusFlag = 0x3F;
aContext->uc_mcontext.fpregs->sw &= ~cFPUStatusFlag;
...
0x3F is negated to put 0 in the 6 bits of the status register of the FPU (x87). Doing this implies to check for FPE exceptions after calculation.

On 64 bits linux kernel, I did not find any way to achieve the same thing.
