Návod, kniha: POSIX Programmer's Manual

Some of the functionality described on this reference page extends the ISO C standard. Applications shall define the appropriate feature test macro (see the System Interfaces volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 2.2, The Compilation Environment) to enable the visibility of these symbols in this header.

The <signal.h> header shall define the following symbolic constants, each of which expands to a distinct constant expression of the type:


void (*)(int)

whose value matches no declarable function.

SIG_DFL: Request for default signal handling.

SIG_ERR: Return value from signal() in case of error.

SIG_HOLD: Request that signal be held.

SIG_IGN: Request that signal be ignored.

The following data types shall be defined through typedef:

sig_atomic_t: Possibly volatile-qualified integer type of an object that can be accessed as an atomic entity, even in the presence of asynchronous interrupts.

sigset_t: Integer or structure type of an object used to represent sets of signals.

pid_t: As described in <sys/types.h> .

The <signal.h> header shall define the sigevent structure, which has at least the following members:


int                    sigev_notify            Notification type. 
int                    sigev_signo             Signal number. 
union sigval           sigev_value             Signal value. 
void(*)(union sigval)  sigev_notify_function   Notification function. 
(pthread_attr_t *)     sigev_notify_attributes Notification attributes.

The following values of sigev_notify shall be defined:

SIGEV_NONE: No asynchronous notification is delivered when the event of interest occurs.

SIGEV_SIGNAL: A queued signal, with an application-defined value, is generated when the event of interest occurs.

SIGEV_THREAD: A notification function is called to perform notification.

The sigval union shall be defined as:


int    sival_int    Integer signal value. 
void  *sival_ptr    Pointer signal value.

This header shall also declare the macros SIGRTMIN and SIGRTMAX, which evaluate to integer expressions, and specify a range of signal numbers that are reserved for application use and for which the realtime signal behavior specified in this volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 is supported. The signal numbers in this range do not overlap any of the signals specified in the following table.

The range SIGRTMIN through SIGRTMAX inclusive shall include at least {RTSIG_MAX} signal numbers.

It is implementation-defined whether realtime signal behavior is supported for other signals.

This header also declares the constants that are used to refer to the signals that occur in the system. Signals defined here begin with the letters SIG. Each of the signals have distinct positive integer values. The value 0 is reserved for use as the null signal (see kill()). Additional implementation-defined signals may occur in the system.

The ISO C standard only requires the signal names SIGABRT, SIGFPE, SIGILL, SIGINT, SIGSEGV, and SIGTERM to be defined.

The following signals shall be supported on all implementations (default actions are explained below the table):

Signal	Default Action	Description
SIGABRT	A	Process abort signal.
SIGALRM	T	Alarm clock.
SIGBUS	A	Access to an undefined portion of a memory object.
SIGCHLD	I	Child process terminated, stopped,
		or continued.
SIGCONT	C	Continue executing, if stopped.
SIGFPE	A	Erroneous arithmetic operation.
SIGHUP	T	Hangup.
SIGILL	A	Illegal instruction.
SIGINT	T	Terminal interrupt signal.
SIGKILL	T	Kill (cannot be caught or ignored).
SIGPIPE	T	Write on a pipe with no one to read it.
SIGQUIT	A	Terminal quit signal.
SIGSEGV	A	Invalid memory reference.
SIGSTOP	S	Stop executing (cannot be caught or ignored).
SIGTERM	T	Termination signal.
SIGTSTP	S	Terminal stop signal.
SIGTTIN	S	Background process attempting read.
SIGTTOU	S	Background process attempting write.
SIGUSR1	T	User-defined signal 1.
SIGUSR2	T	User-defined signal 2.
SIGPOLL	T	Pollable event.
SIGPROF	T	Profiling timer expired.
SIGSYS	A	Bad system call.
SIGTRAP	A	Trace/breakpoint trap.
SIGURG	I	High bandwidth data is available at a socket.
SIGVTALRM	T	Virtual timer expired.
SIGXCPU	A	CPU time limit exceeded.
SIGXFSZ	A	File size limit exceeded.

The default actions are as follows:

T: Abnormal termination of the process. The process is terminated with all the consequences of _exit() except that the status made available to wait() and waitpid() indicates abnormal termination by the specified signal.

A: Abnormal termination of the process.

Additionally, implementation-defined abnormal termination actions, such as creation of a core file, may occur.

I: Ignore the signal.

S: Stop the process.

C: Continue the process, if it is stopped; otherwise, ignore the signal.

The header shall provide a declaration of struct sigaction, including at least the following members:


void (*sa_handler)(int)  Pointer to a signal-catching function or one of the macros 
                         SIG_IGN or SIG_DFL. 
sigset_t sa_mask         Set of signals to be blocked during execution of the signal 
                         handling function. 
int      sa_flags        Special flags. 
void (*sa_sigaction)(int, siginfo_t *, void *)
                         Pointer to a signal-catching function.

The storage occupied by sa_handler and sa_sigaction may overlap, and a conforming application shall not use both simultaneously.

The following shall be declared as constants:

SA_NOCLDSTOP: Do not generate SIGCHLD when children stop

or stopped children continue.

SIG_BLOCK: The resulting set is the union of the current set and the signal set pointed to by the argument set.

SIG_UNBLOCK: The resulting set is the intersection of the current set and the complement of the signal set pointed to by the argument set.

SIG_SETMASK: The resulting set is the signal set pointed to by the argument set.

SA_ONSTACK: Causes signal delivery to occur on an alternate stack.

SA_RESETHAND: Causes signal dispositions to be set to SIG_DFL on entry to signal handlers.

SA_RESTART: Causes certain functions to become restartable.

SA_SIGINFO: Causes extra information to be passed to signal handlers at the time of receipt of a signal.

SA_NOCLDWAIT: Causes implementations not to create zombie processes on child death.

SA_NODEFER: Causes signal not to be automatically blocked on entry to signal handler.

SS_ONSTACK: Process is executing on an alternate signal stack.

SS_DISABLE: Alternate signal stack is disabled.

MINSIGSTKSZ: Minimum stack size for a signal handler.

The <signal.h> header shall define the siginfo_t type as a structure that includes at least the following members:



int           si_signo  Signal number. 


int           si_errno  If non-zero, an errno value associated with 
                        this signal, as defined in <errno.h>.

Implementations may support additional si_code values not included in this list, may generate values included in this list under circumstances other than those described in this list, and may contain extensions or limitations that prevent some values from being generated.
