# `libucontext`
`libucontext` is a library which provides the `ucontext.h` C API. Unlike other implementations,
it faithfully follows the kernel process ABI when doing context swaps.
Notably, when combined with `gcompat`, it provides a fully compatible implementation of the ucontext
functions that are ABI compatible with glibc.
## supported architectures
Adding support for new architectures is easy, but you need to know assembly language to do it.
Right now these archs are supported:
* x86
* x86_64
* armv6+ (`arm`)
* aarch64
