URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/pull/1703


    ## Summary of Changes
   
   The `ucontext` API allows us to jump from the signal handler without 
altering the
   handler's execution flow. A new host API is introduced:
   getcontext()/setcontext()/swapcontext()/makecontext().
   This feature can be enabled by setting CONFIG_SIM_UCONTEXT_PREEMPTION=y.
   
   This is a continuation of the work done here: 
https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/pull/1663
   
   ## Impact
   
   When the option `CONFIG_SIM_UCONTEXT_PREEMPTION` is not enabled the patch is 
using the previous mechanism :
   `setjmp/longjmp` and is not altering the original functionality.
