// 2.4.3 Throwing the Exception Object
195
After constructing the exception object with the throw argument value,
196
the generated code calls the __cxa_throw runtime library routine. This
197
routine never returns.
199
The __cxa_throw routine will do the following:
201
* Obtain the __cxa_exception header from the thrown exception object address,
202
which can be computed as follows:
203
__cxa_exception *header = ((__cxa_exception *) thrown_exception - 1);
204
* Save the current unexpected_handler and terminate_handler in the __cxa_exception header.
205
* Save the tinfo and dest arguments in the __cxa_exception header.
206
* Set the exception_class field in the unwind header. This is a 64-bit value
207
representing the ASCII string "XXXXC++\0", where "XXXX" is a
208
vendor-dependent string. That is, for implementations conforming to this
209
ABI, the low-order 4 bytes of this 64-bit value will be "C++\0".
210
* Increment the uncaught_exception flag.
211
* Call _Unwind_RaiseException in the system unwind library, Its argument is the
212
pointer to the thrown exception, which __cxa_throw itself received as an argument.
213
__Unwind_RaiseException begins the process of stack unwinding, described
214
in Section 2.5. In special cases, such as an inability to find a
215
handler, _Unwind_RaiseException may return. In that case, __cxa_throw
216
will call terminate, assuming that there was no handler for the
221
__cxa_throw(void* thrown_object, std::type_info* tinfo, void (*dest)(void*))
223
__cxa_eh_globals *globals = __cxa_get_globals();

248
The adjusted pointer is computed by the personality routine during phase 1
249
and saved in the exception header (either __cxa_exception or
250
__cxa_dependent_exception).

264
This routine can catch foreign or native exceptions. If native, the exception
265
can be a primary or dependent variety. This routine may remain blissfully
266
ignorant of whether the native exception is primary or dependent.
268
If the exception is native:
269
* Increment's the exception's handler count.
270
* Push the exception on the stack of currently-caught exceptions if it is not
271
already there (from a rethrow).
272
* Decrements the uncaught_exception count.
273
* Returns the adjusted pointer to the exception object, which is stored in
274
the __cxa_exception by the personality routine.
276
If the exception is foreign, this means it did not originate from one of throw
277
routines. The foreign exception does not necessarily have a __cxa_exception
278
header. However we can catch it here with a catch (...), or with a call
279
to terminate or unexpected during unwinding.
280
* Do not try to increment the exception's handler count, we don't know where
282
* Push the exception on the stack of currently-caught exceptions only if the
283
stack is empty. The foreign exception has no way to link to the current
284
top of stack. If the stack is not empty, call terminate. Even with an
285
empty stack, this is hacked in by pushing a pointer to an imaginary
286
__cxa_exception block in front of the foreign exception. It would be better
287
if the __cxa_eh_globals structure had a stack of _Unwind_Exception, but it
288
doesn't. It has a stack of __cxa_exception (which has a next* in it).
289
* Do not decrement the uncaught_exception count because we didn't increment it
290
in __cxa_throw (or one of our rethrow functions).
291
* If we haven't terminated, assume the exception object is just past the
292
_Unwind_Exception and return a pointer to that.

334
Upon exit for any reason, a handler must call:
335
void __cxa_end_catch ();
337
This routine can be called for either a native or foreign exception.
338
For a native exception:
339
* Locates the most recently caught exception and decrements its handler count.
340
* Removes the exception from the caught exception stack, if the handler count goes to zero.
341
* If the handler count goes down to zero, and the exception was not re-thrown
342
by throw, it locates the primary exception (which may be the same as the one
343
it's handling) and decrements its reference count. If that reference count
344
goes to zero, the function destroys the exception. In any case, if the current
345
exception is a dependent exception, it destroys that.
347
For a foreign exception:
348
* If it has been rethrown, there is nothing to do.
349
* Otherwise delete the exception and pop the catch stack to empty.
