29 /* Exceptions can exist in three phases: (1) after having been allocated by
30 __cxa_allocate_exception but before being handed off to __cxa_throw,
31 (2) when they are in flight, so between __cxa_throw and __cxa_begin_catch,
32 and (3) when they are being handled (between __cxa_begin_catch and
33 __cxa_end_catch). Note that when an exception is re-thrown in (3), it is
34 not moving back to (2) but handled as a special case of (3) by the EH
37 We can get aborts in all three phases, for example in (1) during
38 construction of the exception object, or in (2) in destructors called
39 while unwinding the stack. The transaction that created an exception
40 object can only commit in phase (3) by re-throwing the exception; it cannot
41 commit in other phases because throw expressions and catch clauses are
42 properly nested wrt transactions and because the compiler wraps
43 transaction bodies in a try/catch-all construct.
45 We handle phase (1) by dealing with exception objects similar to how we
46 deal with other (de)allocations, which also ensures that we can have more
47 than one exception object allocated at the same time (e.g., if the
48 throw expression itself throws an exception and thus calls
49 __cxa_allocate_exception). However, on the call to __cxa_begin_catch
50 we hand off the exception to the special handling of phase (3) and
51 remove the undo log entry of the allocation. Note that if the allocation
52 happened outside of this transaction, we do not need to do anything.
54 When an exception reaches phase (2) due to a call to __cxa_throw, the count
55 of uncaught exceptions is incremented. We roll back this effect by saving
56 and restoring this number in the structure returned from __cxa_get_globals.
57 This also takes care of increments of this count when re-throwing an
60 For phase (3), we keep track of the number of times __cxa_begin_catch
61 has been called without a matching call to __cxa_end_catch. This count
62 is then used by __cxa_tm_cleanup to roll back the exception handling state
63 by calling __cxa_end_catch for the exceptions that have not been finished
64 yet (without running destructors though because we roll back the memory
66 Once an exception that was allocated in this transaction enters phase (3),
67 it does not need to be deallocated on abort anymore because the calls to
68 __cxa_end_catch will take care of that.
70 We require all code executed by the transaction to be transaction_safe (or
71 transaction_pure, or to have wrappers) if the transaction is to be rolled
72 back. However, we take care to not require this for transactions that
73 just commit; this way, transactions that enter serial mode and then call
74 uninstrumented code continue to work.
