+<a name="index-host-hooks"></a>
+<a name="index-host-functions"></a>
+
+<p>Some things are just not portable, even between similar operating systems,
+and are too difficult for autoconf to detect. They get implemented using
+hook functions in the file specified by the <var>host_hook_obj</var>
+variable in <samp>config.gcc</samp>.
+</p>
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-HOST_005fHOOKS_005fEXTRA_005fSIGNALS"></a>Host Hook: <em>void</em> <strong>HOST_HOOKS_EXTRA_SIGNALS</strong> <em>(void)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>This host hook is used to set up handling for extra signals. The most
+common thing to do in this hook is to detect stack overflow.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-HOST_005fHOOKS_005fGT_005fPCH_005fGET_005fADDRESS"></a>Host Hook: <em>void *</em> <strong>HOST_HOOKS_GT_PCH_GET_ADDRESS</strong> <em>(size_t <var>size</var>, int <var>fd</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>This host hook returns the address of some space that is likely to be
+free in some subsequent invocation of the compiler. We intend to load
+the PCH data at this address such that the data need not be relocated.
+The area should be able to hold <var>size</var> bytes. If the host uses
+<code>mmap</code>, <var>fd</var> is an open file descriptor that can be used for
+probing.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-HOST_005fHOOKS_005fGT_005fPCH_005fUSE_005fADDRESS"></a>Host Hook: <em>int</em> <strong>HOST_HOOKS_GT_PCH_USE_ADDRESS</strong> <em>(void * <var>address</var>, size_t <var>size</var>, int <var>fd</var>, size_t <var>offset</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>This host hook is called when a PCH file is about to be loaded.
+We want to load <var>size</var> bytes from <var>fd</var> at <var>offset</var>
+into memory at <var>address</var>. The given address will be the result of
+a previous invocation of <code>HOST_HOOKS_GT_PCH_GET_ADDRESS</code>.
+Return -1 if we couldn&rsquo;t allocate <var>size</var> bytes at <var>address</var>.
+Return 0 if the memory is allocated but the data is not loaded. Return 1
+if the hook has performed everything.
+</p>
+<p>If the implementation uses reserved address space, free any reserved
+space beyond <var>size</var>, regardless of the return value. If no PCH will
+be loaded, this hook may be called with <var>size</var> zero, in which case
+all reserved address space should be freed.
+</p>
+<p>Do not try to handle values of <var>address</var> that could not have been
+returned by this executable; just return -1. Such values usually
+indicate an out-of-date PCH file (built by some other GCC executable),
+and such a PCH file won&rsquo;t work.
+</p></dd></dl>

+<dt><a name="index-HOST_005fHOOKS_005fGT_005fPCH_005fALLOC_005fGRANULARITY"></a>Host Hook: <em>size_t</em> <strong>HOST_HOOKS_GT_PCH_ALLOC_GRANULARITY</strong> <em>(void);</em></dt>
+<dd><p>This host hook returns the alignment required for allocating virtual
+memory. Usually this is the same as getpagesize, but on some hosts the
+alignment for reserving memory differs from the pagesize for committing
+memory.
+</p></dd></dl>
