|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <signal.h>
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn sigprocmask "int how" "const sigset_t *set" "sigset_t *oset"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn sigprocmask
|
|
function examines and/or changes the current signal mask (those signals
|
|
that are blocked from delivery).
|
|
Signals are blocked if they are members of the current signal mask set.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa set
|
|
is not null, the action of
|
|
.Fn sigprocmask
|
|
depends on the value of the parameter
|
|
.Fa how .
|
|
The signal mask is changed as a function of the specified
|
|
.Fa set
|
|
and the current mask.
|
|
The function is specified by
|
|
.Fa how
|
|
using one of the following values from
|
|
.Aq Pa signal.h :
|
|
.Bl -tag -width SIG_UNBLOCK
|
|
.It Dv SIG_BLOCK
|
|
The new mask is the union of the current mask and the specified
|
|
.Fa set .
|
|
.It Dv SIG_UNBLOCK
|
|
The new mask is the intersection of the current mask
|
|
and the complement of the specified
|
|
.Fa set .
|
|
.It Dv SIG_SETMASK
|
|
The current mask is replaced by the specified
|
|
.Fa set .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa oset
|
|
is not null, it is set to
|
|
the previous value of the signal mask.
|
|
When
|
|
.Fa set
|
|
is null,
|
|
the value of
|
|
.Ar how
|
|
is insignificant and the mask remains unset
|
|
providing a way to examine the signal mask without modification.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The system
|
|
quietly disallows
|
|
.Dv SIGKILL
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv SIGSTOP
|
|
to be blocked.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
A 0 value indicated that the call succeeded. A -1 return value
|
|
indicates an error occurred and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to indicated the reason.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn sigprocmask
|
|
call will fail and the signal mask will be unchanged if one
|
|
of the following occurs:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
.Fa how
|
|
has a value other than those listed here.
