versus "UNIX". Let's go with the trademark usage.

.BR SIG_DFL ,

.TP 3

If the disposition is set to
|
2004-11-03 13:51:07 +00:00
|
|

.BR SIG_IGN ,

|
|
|
.BR SIG_DFL ,
|
2004-12-13 08:40:20 +00:00

then the default action associated with the signal (see

.BR signal (7))

If the disposition is set to a function,

|
|
|
|
then first either the disposition is reset to
|
|
|
|
|
.BR SIG_DFL ,
|
|

or the signal is blocked (see \fIPortability\fP below), and then

2006-12-27 03:54:12 +00:00
|
|
|
.I handler

2004-11-03 13:51:07 +00:00

|
|
|
.IR signum .
|
2007-06-08 10:58:53 +00:00
|
|
|
If invocation of the handler caused the signal to be blocked,
|
2007-05-27 21:33:14 +00:00

The only portable use of

is to set a signal's disposition to

to establish a signal handler vary across systems
|

(and POSIX.1 explicitly permits this variation);
|
|
|
|
|
.B do not use it for this purpose.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

POSIX.1 solved the portability mess by specifying

.BR sigaction (2),

which provides explicit control of the semantics when a

In the original UNIX systems, when a handler that was established using
|
2008-07-11 11:16:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.BR signal ()
|
|
|
|
|
was invoked by the delivery of a signal,
|
|
|
|
|
the disposition of the signal would be reset to
|
2007-06-21 05:38:48 +00:00
|
|
|
.BR SIG_DFL ,
|
2008-07-11 11:16:14 +00:00
|
|
|
and the system did not block delivery of further instances of the signal.
|
2013-02-09 02:34:59 +00:00
|
|
|
This is equivalent to calling
|
|
|
|
|
.BR sigaction (2)
|
|
|
|
|
with the following flags:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sa.sa_flags = SA_RESETHAND | SA_NODEFER;
|
|
|
|
|
|
clone.2, execve.2, getpriority.2, ipc.2, kcmp.2, killpg.2, msgctl.2, msgget.2, msgop.2, select.2, semctl.2, semget.2, semop.2, setpgid.2, shmctl.2, shmget.2, shmop.2, sigaction.2, signal.2, socket.2, socketpair.2, syscalls.2, umask.2, unshare.2: ffix: Don't allow line break inside "System V"
2014-04-28 07:36:03 +00:00
|
|
|
System\ V also provides these semantics for
|
2008-07-11 11:16:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.BR signal ().
|
|
|
|
|
This was bad because the signal might be delivered again
|
|
|
|
|
before the handler had a chance to reestablish itself.
|
|
|
|
|
Furthermore, rapid deliveries of the same signal could
|
|
|
|
|
result in recursive invocations of the handler.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-02-09 02:34:59 +00:00
|
|
|
BSD improved on this situation, but unfortunately also
|
|
|
|
|
changed the semantics of the existing
|
|
|
|
|
.BR signal ()
|
|
|
|
|
interface while doing so.
|
2008-07-11 11:16:14 +00:00
|
|
|
On BSD, when a signal handler is invoked,
|
|
|
|
|
the signal disposition is not reset,
|
|
|
|
|
and further instances of the signal are blocked from
|
|
|
|
|
being delivered while the handler is executing.
|
2013-02-09 02:34:59 +00:00
|
|
|
Furthermore, certain blocking system calls are automatically
|
|
|
|
|
restarted if interrupted by a signal handler (see
|
|
|
|
|
.BR signal (7)).
|
|
|
|
|
The BSD semantics are equivalent to calling
|
|
|
|
|
.BR sigaction (2)
|
|
|
|
|
with the following flags:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sa.sa_flags = SA_RESTART;
|

The situation on Linux is as follows:

2014-04-28 07:36:03 +00:00

|
2008-07-11 11:16:14 +00:00
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
By default, in glibc 2 and later, the
|
|
|
|
|
.BR signal ()
|
|
|
|
|
wrapper function does not invoke the kernel system call.
|
|
|
|
|
Instead, it calls
|
|
|
|
|
.BR sigaction (2)
|
|
|
|
|
using flags that supply BSD semantics.
|
|
|
|
|
This default behavior is provided as long as the
|
|
|
|
|
.B _BSD_SOURCE
|
|
|
|
|
feature test macro is defined.
|
|
|
|
|
By default,
|
|
|
|
|
.B _BSD_SOURCE
|
|
|
|
|
is defined;
|
|
|
|
|
it is also implicitly defined if one defines
|
|
|
|
|
.BR _GNU_SOURCE ,
|
|
|
|
|
and can of course be explicitly defined.
|
|
|
|
|
.sp

|
|
|
|
On glibc 2 and later, if the
|
|
|
|
|
.B _BSD_SOURCE
|
|
|
|
|
feature test macro is not defined, then
|
|
|
