|
The definitions of the C standard leave about everything that *could* be
|
||
|
|
useful to be "implementation defined". Without additional, non-standard
|
||
|
|
arrangements, it is not possible to turn them into a useful tool.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This example implementation chose to "not generate any of these signals,
|
||
|
|
except as a result of explicit calls to the raise function", which is
|
||
|
|
allowed by the standard but of course does nothing for the usefulness of
|
||
|
|
<signal.h>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A useful signal handling would:
|
||
|
|
1) make signal() a system call that registers the signal handler with the OS
|
||
|
|
2) make raise() a system call triggering an OS signal to the running process
|
||
|
|
3) make provisions that further signals of the same type are blocked until
|
||
|
|
the signal handler returns (optional for SIGILL)

|
A signal handler is a function that takes an integer as argument (the signal
|
||
|
|
number) and returns void.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that a signal handler can do very little else than:
|
||
|
|
1) assign a value to a static object of type "volatile sig_atomic_t",
|
||
|
|
2) call signal() with the value of sig equal to the signal received,
|
||
|
|
3) call _Exit(),
|
||
|
|
4) call abort().
|
||
|
|
Virtually everything else is undefind.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The signal() function returns the previous installed signal handler, which
|
||
|
|
at program start may be SIG_DFL or SIG_ILL. (This implementation uses
|
||
|
|
SIG_DFL for all handlers.) If the request cannot be honored, SIG_ERR is
|
||
|
|
returned and errno is set to an unspecified positive value.

|
|
occuring, but executes signal( sig, SIG_DFL ) before entering the signal
