.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm siginfo
|
|
.Nd "signal generation information"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In signal.h
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
A process may request signal information when it is catching a signal.
|
|
The information specifies why the system generated that signal.
|
|
To request signal information in a signal handler, the user can set
|
|
.Dv SA_SIGINFO
|
|
in
|
|
.Va sa_flags
|
|
before
|
|
.Xr sigaction 2
|
|
is called,
|
|
otherwise the user can use
|
|
.Xr sigwaitinfo 2
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr sigtimedwait 2
|
|
to get signal information.
|
|
In either case, the system returns the information in a structure of type
|
|
.Vt siginfo_t ,
|
|
which includes the following information:
|
|
.Bl -column ".Vt union signal" ".Va si_overrun"

|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh NOTES
|
|
Currently, the kernel never generates
|
|
.Dv SIGPOLL
|
|
signal.
|
|
Also, the
|
|
.Xr kill 2
|
|
system call does not queue signals, so you will not get code
|
|
.Dv SI_USER .
|
|
.Dv SIGCHLD
|
|
signal is queued when a process changed its status or exited.
|
|
.Tn POSIX
|
|
Realtime Extensions like aio, timer, message queue also queue
|
|
signals.
|
|
For some hardware architectures, the exact value of
|
|
.Va si_addr
|
|
might not be available.
