SIGLWP signal is used as an inter-LWP signaling mechanism when directed to particular LWPs within the process via the _lwp_kill() interface. It is reserved for the threads packages.

SIGWAITING signal is generated by the kernel when it detects that all the LWPs in the process have blocked in indefinite waits. It is used by threads packages to ensure that processes don't deadlock indefinitely due to lack of execution resources.
