<p>The <strong>sigtimedwait()</strong> function selects a pending signal from
|
||
|
|
<em>set</em>, clears it from the set of pending signals for the thread or
|
||
|
|
process, and returns that signal number in the <em>si_signo</em> member in the
|
||
|
|
structure that is referenced by <em>info</em>. If prior to the call to <strong>
|
||
|
|
sigtimedwait()</strong> there are multiple pending instances of a single signal
|
||
|
|
number, upon successful return the number of remaining signals for that signal
|
||
|
|
number is decremented by one.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>If no signal in <em>set</em> is pending at the time of the call, the thread
|
||
|
|
shall be suspended for the time interval in the <em>timespec</em> structure
|
||
|
|
referenced by <em>timeout</em>. The thread does not resume until either one or
|
||
|
|
more signals in <em>set</em> become pending or the time interval has elapsed.
|
||
|
|
If the <em>timespec</em> structure referenced by <em>timeout</em> has a value
|
||
|
|
of zero and none of the signals specified by <em>set</em> are pending, then
|
||
|
|
<strong>sigtimedwait()</strong> is not successful and an [EAGAIN] error is
|
||
|
|
returned.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The signals defined by <em>set</em> are required to be blocked at the time
|
||
|
|
of the call to <strong>sigtimedwait()</strong>; otherwise, <strong>
|
||
|
|
sigtimedwait()</strong> is not successful, and an [EINVAL] error is returned.
|
||
|
|
The signal SIGKILL or SIGStop cannot be selected. Any attempt to use <strong>
|
||
|
|
sigprocmask()</strong> to select these signals is simply ignored, and no error
|
||
|
|
is returned.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The signal action for the signal in <em>set</em> that is returned in the
|
||
|
|
member <em>si_signo</em> in the structure referenced by <em>info</em> is not
|
||
|
|
taken.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>If more than one thread is using a <em>sigwait</em> function to wait for the
|
||
|
|
same signal, only one of these threads will return from the <em>sigwait</em>
|
||
|
|
function with the signal number. If more than one thread is waiting for the
|
||
|
|
same signal, the first thread to wait on the signal will return from the <em>
|
||
|
|
sigwait</em> function.</p>

<h3>Usage Notes</h3>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The <strong>sigtimedwait()</strong> function enables a process for signals
|
||
|
|
if the process is not already enabled for signals. For details, see <a href=
|
||
|
|
"sigesig.htm">Qp0sEnableSignals()--Enable Process for Signals</a>. If the
|
||
|
|
system has not been enabled for signals, <strong>sigtimedwait()</strong> is not
|
||
|
|
successful, and an [ENOTSIGINIT] error is returned.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
