struct sigaction
(see section Advanced Signal Handling); it is used to specify signal actions
to the sigvec
function. It contains the following members:
sighandler_t sv_handler
int sv_mask
int sv_flags
sv_onstack
.
These symbolic constants can be used to provide values for the
sv_flags
field of a sigvec
structure. This field is a bit
mask value, so you bitwise-OR the flags of interest to you together.
sv_flags
field of a sigvec
structure, it means to use the signal stack when delivering the signal.
sv_flags
field of a sigvec
structure, it means that system calls interrupted by this kind of signal
should not be restarted if the handler returns; instead, the system
calls should return with a EINTR
error status. See section Primitives Interrupted by Signals.
sv_flags
field of a sigvec
structure, it means to reset the action for the signal back to
SIG_DFL
when the signal is received.
sigaction
(see section Advanced Signal Handling); it installs the action action for the signal signum,
returning information about the previous action in effect for that signal
in old-action.
EINTR
. See section Primitives Interrupted by Signals.
