|
<p>The <strong>pthread_sigmask</strong>() function examines or modifies the signal blocking mask for the current thread.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The signals <strong>SIGKILL</strong> or <strong>SIGStop</strong> cannot be blocked. Any attempt to use <strong>pthread_sigmask</strong>() to block these signals is simply ignored, and no error is returned.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p><strong>SIGFPE</strong>, <strong>SIGILL</strong>, and <strong>SIGSEGV</strong> signals that are not artificially generated by <strong>kill</strong>(), <strong>pthread_kill</strong>() or <strong>raise</strong>() (that is, were generated by the system as a result of a hardware or software exception) are not blocked.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>If there are any pending unblocked signals after <strong>pthread_sigmask</strong>() has changed the signal mask, at least one of those signals is delivered to the process before <strong>pthread_sigmask</strong>() returns.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>If <strong>pthread_sigmask</strong>() fails, the signal mask of the thread is not changed.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The possible values for <em>how</em>, which are defined in the <strong><signal.h></strong> header file, are as follows:</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<dl>
|
||
|
<dt><strong>SIG_BLOCK</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<dd><p>Indicates that the set of signals given by <em>set</em> should be blocked, in addition to the set currently being blocked</p></dd>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<dt><strong>SIG_UNBLOCK</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<dd><p>Indicates that the set of signals given by <em>set</em> should not be blocked. These signals are removed from the current set
|
||
|
of signals being blocked</p></dd>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<dt><strong>SIG_SETMASK</strong></dt>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<dd><p>Indicates that the set of signals given by <em>set</em> should replace the old set of signals being blocked</p></dd>
|
||
|
</dl>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The <em>set</em> parameter points to a signal set that contains the new signals that should be blocked or unblocked (depending on the value of <em>how</em>), or it points to the new signal mask if the value of <em>how</em> is <strong>SIG_SETMASK</strong>. If <em>set</em> is a <strong>NULL</strong> pointer, the set of blocked signals is not changed. If <em>set</em> is <strong>NULL</strong>, the value of <em>how</em> is ignored.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The signal set manipulation functions (<strong>sigemptyset</strong>(), <strong>sigfillset</strong>(), <strong>sigaddset</strong>(), and <strong>sigdelset</strong>()) must be used to establish the new signal set pointed to by <em>set</em>.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The <strong>pthread_sigmask</strong>() function determines the current signal set and returns this information in *<em>oset</em>. If <em>set</em> is <strong>NULL</strong>, <em>oset</em> returns the current set of signals being blocked. When <em>set</em> is not <strong>NULL</strong>, the set of signals pointed to by <em>oset</em> is the previous set.</p>
