-- 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
pragma Preelaborate;
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.
--
-- The stack cache should contain the bounds of the current task. But
-- because the RTS is not aware of task switches, the stack cache may be
-- incorrect. So when the stack pointer is not within the bounds of the
-- stack cache, Stack_Check first update the cache (which is a costly
-- operation hence the need of a cache).
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
procedure Notify_Stack_Attributes
(Initial_SP : System.Address;
Size : System.Storage_Elements.Storage_Offset);
-- Register Initial_SP as the initial stack pointer value for the current
-- task when it starts and Size as the associated stack area size. This
-- should be called once, after the soft-links have been initialized and
-- prior to the first "Stack_Check" call.
