.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In signal.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn sigpause "int sigmask"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Sy This interface is made obsolete by
|
|
.Xr sigsuspend 2 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn sigpause
|
|
function
|
|
assigns
|
|
.Fa sigmask
|
|
to the set of masked signals
|
|
and then waits for a signal to arrive;
|
|
on return the set of masked signals is restored.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa sigmask
|
|
argument
|
|
is usually 0 to indicate that no
|
|
signals are to be blocked.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn sigpause
|
|
function
|
|
always terminates by being interrupted, returning -1 with
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
set to
|
|
.Er EINTR

.Sh STANDARDS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn sigpause
|
|
function is implemented for compatibility with historic
|
|
.Bx 4.3
|
|
applications.
|
|
An incompatible interface by the same name, which used a single signal number
|
|
rather than a mask, was present in
|
|
.At V ,
|
|
and was copied from there into the
|
|
.Sy X/Open System Interfaces

|
.Pq Tn XSI
|
|
option of
|
|
.St -p1003.1-2001 .
|
|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn sigpause
|
|
function appeared in
|
|
.Bx 4.2
|
|
and has been deprecated.
