In sandbox, longjmp returns to itself in an endless loop. Cut this through
by calling the real OS function.

Setjmp on the other hand must not return. So here we have to call the OS
setjmp function straight from the code where the setjmp call happens.

I think we do need to do something like this. But I cannot find the
man page for _longjmp(). Are you sure this is a valid function on all
systems? Or is it Linux only?

Regards.

I'm afraid it may be Linux (glibc) only.

I guess the alternative to this would be to not use system 
setjmp/longjmp at all and instead use the in-U-Boot versions of them.

So can we update this patch to check for Linux glibc? Failing that,
perhaps setjmp() could return a negative error value? Then (in other
patches) the caller can make a note that longjmp() cannot be used, and
will return errors from things that need to call it.

Regards,
Simon

I actually think there is a much easier way. We can just directly export 
the symbols for libc's setjmp/longjmp functions in the sandbox setjmp.h 
header. That way we avoid all the nasty problems we've encountered so 
far. I've cooked up a patch and it seems to work fine.
