.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The system defines a set of signals that may be delivered to a process.
|
|
|
|
Signal delivery resembles the occurrence of a hardware interrupt:
|
1996-03-03 14:52:54 +00:00
|
|
|
the signal is normally blocked from further occurrence, the current process
|
1994-05-27 05:00:24 +00:00
|
|
|
context is saved, and a new one is built. A process may specify a
|
|
|
|
.Em handler
|
|
|
|
to which a signal is delivered, or specify that a signal is to be
|
|
|
|
.Em ignored .
|
|
|
|
A process may also specify that a default action is to be taken
|
|
|
|
by the system when a signal occurs.
|
|
|
|
A signal may also be
|
|
|
|
.Em blocked ,
|
|
|
|
in which case its delivery is postponed until it is
|
|
|
|
.Em unblocked .
|
|
|
|
The action to be taken on delivery is determined at the time
|
|
|
|
of delivery.
|
|
|
|
Normally, signal handlers execute on the current stack
|
|
|
|
of the process. This may be changed, on a per-handler basis,
|
|
|
|
so that signals are taken on a special
|
|
|
|
.Em "signal stack" .
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
1996-03-03 14:52:54 +00:00
|
|
|
Signal routines normally execute with the signal that caused their
|
1994-05-27 05:00:24 +00:00
|
|
|
invocation
|
|
|
|
.Em blocked ,
|
|
|
|
but other signals may yet occur.
|
|
|
|
A global
|
|
|
|
.Em "signal mask"
|
|
|
|
defines the set of signals currently blocked from delivery
|
|
|
|
to a process. The signal mask for a process is initialized
|
|
|
|
from that of its parent (normally empty). It
|
|
|
|
may be changed with a
|
|
|
|
.Xr sigprocmask 2
|
|
|
|
call, or when a signal is delivered to the process.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
When a signal
|
|
|
|
condition arises for a process, the signal is added to a set of
|
|
|
|
signals pending for the process.
|
|
|
|
If the signal is not currently
|
|
|
|
.Em blocked
|
|
|
|
by the process then it is delivered to the process.
|
|
|
|
Signals may be delivered any time a process enters the operating system
|
|
|
|
(e.g., during a system call, page fault or trap, or clock interrupt).
|
|
|
|
If multiple signals are ready to be delivered at the same time,
|
|
|
|
any signals that could be caused by traps are delivered first.
|
|
|
|
Additional signals may be processed at the same time, with each
|
|
|
|
appearing to interrupt the handlers for the previous signals
|
|
|
|
before their first instructions.
|
|
|
|
The set of pending signals is returned by the
|
|
|
|
.Xr sigpending 2
|
|
|
|
function.
|
|
|
|
When a caught signal
|
|
|
|
is delivered, the current state of the process is saved,
|
|
|
|
a new signal mask is calculated (as described below),
|
|
|
|
and the signal handler is invoked. The call to the handler
|
|
|
|
is arranged so that if the signal handling routine returns
|
|
|
|
normally the process will resume execution in the context
|
|
|
|
from before the signal's delivery.
|
|
|
|
If the process wishes to resume in a different context, then it
|
|
|
|
must arrange to restore the previous context itself.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
When a signal is delivered to a process a new signal mask is
|
|
|
|
installed for the duration of the process' signal handler
|
|
|
|
(or until a
|
|
|
|
.Xr sigprocmask
|
|
|
|
call is made).
|
|
|
|
This mask is formed by taking the union of the current signal mask set,
|
|
|
|
the signal to be delivered, and
|
|
|
|
the signal mask associated with the handler to be invoked.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
.Fn Sigaction
|
1996-07-03 02:44:04 +00:00
|
|
|
assigns an action for a signal specified by
|
|
|
|
.Fa sig .
|
1994-05-27 05:00:24 +00:00
|
|
|
If
|
|
|
|
.Fa act
|
|
|
|
is non-zero, it
|
|
|
|
specifies an action
|
|
|
|
.Pf ( Dv SIG_DFL ,
|
|
|
|
.Dv SIG_IGN ,
|
|
|
|
or a handler routine) and mask
|
|
|
|
to be used when delivering the specified signal.
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
|
|
.Fa oact
|
|
|
|
is non-zero, the previous handling information for the signal
|
|
|
|
is returned to the user.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
1996-03-03 14:52:54 +00:00
|
|
|
Once a signal handler is installed, it normally remains installed
|
1994-05-27 05:00:24 +00:00
|
|
|
until another
|
|
|
|
.Fn sigaction
|
|
|
|
call is made, or an
|
|
|
|
.Xr execve 2
|
|
|
|
is performed.
|
|
|
|
A signal-specific default action may be reset by
|
|
|
|
setting
|
|
|
|
.Fa sa_handler
|
|
|
|
to
|
|
|
|
.Dv SIG_DFL .
|
|
|
|
The defaults are process termination, possibly with core dump;
|
|
|
|
no action; stopping the process; or continuing the process.
|
|
|
|
See the signal list below for each signal's default action.
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
|
|
.Fa sa_handler
|
|
|
|
is
|
|
|
|
.Dv SIG_DFL ,
|
|
|
|
the default action for the signal is to discard the signal,
|
|
|
|
and if a signal is pending,
|
|
|
|
the pending signal is discarded even if the signal is masked.
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
|
|
.Fa sa_handler
|
|
|
|
is set to
|
|
|
|
.Dv SIG_IGN
|
|
|
|
current and pending instances
|
|
|
|
of the signal are ignored and discarded.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
Options may be specified by setting
|
|
|
|
.Em sa_flags .
|
1997-09-13 19:43:24 +00:00
|
|
|
The meaning of the various bits is as follows:
|
|
|
|
.Bl -tag -offset indent -width SA_RESETHANDXX
|
|
|
|
.It Dv SA_NOCLDSTOP
|
|

|
|
|
for the
|
|
|
|
.Dv SIGCHLD
|
|
|
|
signal,
|
|
|
|
the
|
|
|
|
.Dv SIGCHLD
|
|
|
|
signal will be generated only when a child process exits,
|
|
|
|
not when a child process stops.
|
1997-09-13 19:43:24 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Dv SA_NOCLDWAIT
|
|
|
|
If this bit is set when calling
|
|
|
|
.Fn sigaction
|
|
|
|
for the
|
|
|
|
.Dv SIGCHLD
|
|
|
|
signal, the system will not create zombie processes when children of
|
|
|
|
the calling process exit. If the calling process subsequently issues
|
|
|
|
a
|
|
|
|
.Xr wait 2
|
|
|
|
(or equivalent), it blocks until all of the calling process's child
|
|
|
|
processes terminate, and then returns a value of -1 with errno set to
|
|
|
|
.Dv ECHILD .
|
|
|
|
.It Dv SA_ONSTACK
|
|
|
|
If this bit is set, the system will deliver the signal to the process
|
|
|
|
on a

|

1997-09-13 19:43:24 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Dv SA_NODEFER
|
|
|
|
If this bit is set, further occurrences of the delivered signal are
|
|
|
|
not masked during the execution of the handler.
|
|
|
|
.It Dv SA_RESETHAND
|
|
|
|
If this bit is set, the handler is reset back to
|
1996-03-03 14:52:54 +00:00
|
|
|
.Dv SIG_DFL
|
|
|
|
at the moment the signal is delivered.

If a signal is caught during the system calls listed below,

|
the call may be forced to terminate
|
|
|
|
with the error
|
|
|
|
.Dv EINTR ,
|
|
|
|
the call may return with a data transfer shorter than requested,
|

or the call may be restarted.
|
|
|
|
Restart of pending calls is requested
|

by setting the

bit in

All functions not in the above lists are considered to be unsafe
|
|
|
|
with respect to signals. That is to say, the behaviour of such
|
|
|
|
functions when called from a signal handler is undefined.

|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
A 0 value indicated that the call succeeded. A \-1 return value
|
|
|
|
indicates an error occurred and
|
|
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
|
|
is set to indicated the reason.
|
|
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLE
|
|
|
|
The handler routine can be declared:
|
|
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
|
|
void handler(sig, code, scp)
|
|
|
|
int sig, code;

|

|
Here
|
|
|
|
.Fa sig
|
|
|
|
is the signal number, into which the hardware faults and traps are
|
|
|
|
mapped.
|
|
|
|
.Fa Code
|
|
|
|
is a parameter that is either a constant
|
|
|
|
or the code provided by
|
|
|
|
the hardware.
|
|
|
|
.Fa Scp
|
|
|
|
is a pointer to the
|
|
|
|
.Fa sigcontext
|
|
|
|
structure (defined in
|
|
|
|
.Aq Pa signal.h ) ,
|

used to restore the context from before the signal.

|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
|
|
.Fn Sigaction
