Memory management
`void* __cxa_allocate_exception(size_t thrown_size) throw();` Effects: Allocates memory to hold the exception to be thrown. `thrown_size` is the size of the exception object. Can allocate additional memory to hold private data. If memory can not be allocated, call `std::terminate()`. Returns: A pointer to the memory allocated for the exception object. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_free_exception(void * thrown_exception) throw();` Effects: Frees memory allocated by `__cxa_allocate_exception`. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void* __cxa_allocate_dependent_exception() throw();` Effects: Allocates memory to hold a "dependent" exception to be thrown. `thrown_size` is the size of the exception object. Can allocate additional memory to hold private data. If memory can not be allocated, call `std::terminate()`. Returns: A pointer to the memory allocated for the exception object. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_free_dependent_exception (void* dependent_exception) throw();` Effects: Frees memory allocated by `__cxa_allocate_dependent_exception`. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
Exception Handling
`void __cxa_throw(void* thrown_exception, struct std::type_info * tinfo, void (*dest)(void*));` Effects: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void* __cxa_get_exception_ptr(void* exceptionObject) throw();` Returns: The adjusted pointer to the exception object. (The adjusted pointer is typically computed by the personality routine during phase 1 and saved in the exception object.) | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void* __cxa_begin_catch(void* exceptionObject) throw();` Effects: Increment's the exception's handler count. Places the exception on the stack of currently-caught exceptions if it is not already there, linking the exception to the previous top of the stack. Decrements the uncaught_exception count. If the initialization of the catch parameter is trivial (e,g., there is no formal catch parameter, or the parameter has no copy constructor), the calls to `__cxa_get_exception_ptr()` and `__cxa_begin_catch()` may be combined into a single call to `__cxa_begin_catch()`. When the personality routine encounters a termination condition, it will call `__cxa_begin_catch()` to mark the exception as handled and then call `terminate()`, which shall not return to its caller. Returns: The adjusted pointer to the exception object. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_end_catch();` Effects: Locates the most recently caught exception and decrements its handler count. Removes the exception from the caughtÓexception stack, if the handler count goes to zero. Destroys the exception if the handler count goes to zero, and the exception was not re-thrown by throw. Collaboration between __cxa_rethrow() and __cxa_end_catch() is necessary to handle the last point. Though implementation-defined, one possibility is for __cxa_rethrow() to set a flag in the handlerCount member of the exception header to mark an exception being rethrown. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`std::type_info* __cxa_current_exception_type();` Returns: the type of the currently handled exception, or null if there are no caught exceptions. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_rethrow();` Effects: Marks the exception object on top of the caughtExceptions stack (in an implementation-defined way) as being rethrown. If the caughtExceptions stack is empty, it calls terminate() (see [C++FDIS] [except.throw], 15.1.8). It then returns to the handler that called it, which must call __cxa_end_catch(), perform any necessary cleanup, and finally call _Unwind_Resume() to continue unwinding. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void* __cxa_current_primary_exception() throw();` Effects: Increments the ownership count of the currently handled exception (if any) by one. Returns: the type of the currently handled exception, or null if there are no caught exceptions. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_decrement_exception_refcount(void* primary_exception) throw();` Effects: Decrements the ownership count of the exception by 1, and on zero calls `_Unwind_DeleteException` with the exception object. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`__cxa_eh_globals* __cxa_get_globals() throw();` Returns: A pointer to the __cxa_eh_globals structure for the current thread, initializing it if necessary. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`__cxa_eh_globals* __cxa_get_globals_fast() throw();` Requires: At least one prior call to __cxa_get_globals has been made from the current thread. Returns: A pointer to the __cxa_eh_globals structure for the current thread. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_increment_exception_refcount(void* primary_exception) throw();` Effects: Increments the ownership count of the referenced exception. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_rethrow_primary_exception(void* primary_exception);` Effects: Implements `std::rethrow_exception(exception_ptr p)`. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`bool __cxa_uncaught_exception() throw();` Effects: Returns: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`_Unwind_Reason_Code __gxx_personality_v0 (int, _Unwind_Action, _Unwind_Exception_Class, struct _Unwind_Exception *, struct _Unwind_Context *);` Effects: Returns: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
Guard objects
`int __cxa_guard_acquire(uint64_t* guard_object);` Effects: This function is called before initialization takes place. If this function returns 1, either `__cxa_guard_release` or `__cxa_guard_abort` must be called with the same argument. The first byte of the `guard_object` is not modified by this function. On Darwin the implementation checks for deadlock. Returns: 1 if the initialization is not yet complete, otherwise 0. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_guard_release(uint64_t*);` Effects: Sets the first byte of the guard object to a non-zero value. This function is called after initialization is complete. A thread-safe implementation will release the mutex acquired by __cxa_guard_acquire after setting the first byte of the guard object. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_guard_abort(uint64_t*);` Effects: This function is called if the initialization terminates by throwing an exception. | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
Vector construction and destruction
`void* __cxa_vec_new(size_t element_count, size_t element_size, size_t padding_size, void (*constructor)(void*), void (*destructor)(void*) );` Effects: Returns: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void* __cxa_vec_new2(size_t element_count, size_t element_size, size_t padding_size, void (*constructor)(void*), void (*destructor)(void*), void* (*alloc)(size_t), void (*dealloc)(void*) );` Effects: Returns: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void* __cxa_vec_new3(size_t element_count, size_t element_size, size_t padding_size, void (*constructor)(void*), void (*destructor)(void*), void* (*alloc)(size_t), void (*dealloc)(void*, size_t) );` Effects: Returns: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_vec_ctor(void* array_address, size_t element_count, size_t element_size, void (*constructor)(void*), void (*destructor)(void*) );` Effects: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_vec_dtor(void* array_address, size_t element_count, size_t element_size, void (*destructor)(void*) );` Effects: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_vec_cleanup(void* array_address, size_t element_count, size_t element_size, void (*destructor)(void*) );` Effects: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_vec_delete(void* array_address, size_t element_size, size_t padding_size, void (*destructor)(void*) );` Effects: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_vec_delete2(void* array_address, size_t element_size, size_t padding_size, void (*destructor)(void*), void (*dealloc)(void*) );` Effects: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_vec_delete3(void* __array_address, size_t element_size, size_t padding_size, void (*destructor)(void*), void (*dealloc) (void*, size_t));` Effects: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
`void __cxa_vec_cctor(void* dest_array, void* src_array, size_t element_count, size_t element_size, void (*constructor) (void*, void*), void (*destructor)(void*) );` Effects: | ✓ | ✓ | ✓
