longjmp

From cppreference.com
Defined in header <setjmp.h>
void longjmp( jmp_buf env, int status );

Loads the execution context env saved by a previous call to setjmp. This function does not return. Control is transferred to the call site of the macro setjmp that set up env. That setjmp then returns the value, passed as the status.

If the function that called setjmp has exited, the behavior is undefined (in other words, only long jumps up the call stack are allowed)

No destructors for automatic objects are called. If replacing of longjmp with throw and setjmp with catch would execute a non-trivial destructor for any automatic object, the behavior of such longjmp is undefined.
