+.TH SIGSUSPEND 2 2005-09-15 "Linux 2.6.13" "Linux Programmer's Manual"
+.SH NAME
+sigsuspend \- wait for a signal
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <signal.h>
+.sp
+.BI "int sigsuspend(const sigset_t *" mask );
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.BR sigsuspend ()
+temporarily replaces the signal mask of the calling process with the
+mask given by 
+.I mask
+and then suspends the process until delivery of a signal whose
+action is to invoke a signal handler or to terminate a process.
+
+If the signal terminates the process, then
+.BR sigsuspend ()
+does not return.
+If the signal is caught, then
+.BR sigsuspend ()
+returns after the signal handler returns,
+and the signal mask is restored to the state before the call to
+.BR sigsuspend ().
+
+It is not possible to block SIGKILL or SIGSTOP;
+specifying these signals in
+.IR mask ,
+has no effect on the process's signal mask.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+.BR sigsuspend ()
+always returns \-1, normally with the error
+.BR EINTR .
+.SH ERRORS
+.TP
+.B EFAULT
+.I mask
+points to memory which is not a valid part of the process address space.
+.TP
+.B EINTR
+The call was interrupted by a signal.
+.SH NOTES
+.PP
+Normally, 
+.BR sigsuspend ()
+is used in conjunction with
+.BR sigprocmask ()
+in order to prevent delivery of a signal during the execution of a 
+critical code section.
+The caller first blocks the signals with
+.BR sigprocmask ().
+When the critical code has completed, the caller then waits for the
+signals by calling
+.BR sigsuspend ()
+with the signal mask that was returned by
+.BR sigprocmask()
+(in the
+.IR oldset
+argument).
+.PP
+See
+.BR sigsetops (3)
+for details on manipulating signal sets.
