>Description:
Kernel longjmp(9) is supposed to make setjmp(9) return 1 -- it doesn't take a second argument for the return value.  But the hppa code does this:

    303 	bv	%r0(%rp)
    304 	copy	%arg1,%ret0	/* Move return value to where it belongs. */

https://nxr.netbsd.org/xref/src/sys/arch/hppa/hppa/support.S?r=1.7#303

So it returns whatever garbage happens to be in a1.
>How-To-Repeat:
code inspection
mess with ddb, probably
>Fix:
Change

copy %arg1,%ret0

to however you spell `load immediate value 1 into %ret0' in hppaish.
