Instead of using defined error numbers, the coder decided to use a signal number as the return code from the perl code. SIGINT (EINTR) == 2 on most systems.

I am trying to write a signal handler into a ksh shell script. I would like to capture the SIGTERM, SIGINT, and the SIGTSTP signals, print out a message to the terminal, and continue executing the script. I have found a way to block the signals:
#! /bin/ksh
SIGTERM=15
SIGINT=2... (2 Replies)
Hi,
I have an c++ application which uses the function fork and execvp().
The parent does not wait until the child ends. The parents just creates children and let them do their stuff.
You can see the parent program as a batch-manager.
I have added a SIGCHLD handler to the program:
void... (3 Replies)
Hey guys,
I am trying to write a little shell, and was writing a signal handler to handle SIGINT (I am using 'stty intr ^C' and using ctrl-C to give SIGINT).
I wrote this signal handler: void handle_sigint()
{
write(2,"handling sigint\n",16);
write(1,"\nshell% ",8);
}

I have written a program to demonstrate a problem I have encountered when using BSD style asynchronous input using the O_ASYNC flag in conjunction with a real time interval timer sending regular SIGALRM signals to the program. The SIGIO handler obeys all safe practices, using only an atomic update... (8 Replies)
Is it ok to use exit() inside a signal handler?
I catch SIGUSR1 in a signal handler and I try to close a file and then exit. The result is inconsistent. Sometimes the process exit and sometimes it returns to the original state before the signal handler was invoked.
Perhaps exit is not legal in... (8 Replies)
Hi,
I have a daq program that runs in an infinite loop until it receives SIGINT. A handler catches the signal and sets a flag to stop the while loop. After the loop some things have to be cleaned up.
The problem is that I want my main while loop to wait until the next full second begins, to... (2 Replies)
I have a problem with signal handlers not working.
I have a long 1000 line code and somehow this code for signal handling is not working:
$SIG{INT} = \&interrupt;
sub interrupt {
print STDERR "Caught a control c!\n";
exit; # or just about anything else you'd want to do
}
Any... (2 Replies)

Hello,
I'm writing some serial(UART) handler but have stuck on few issues, maybe anyone can help to show me what I'm doing wrong.

io::async::signal
IO::Async::Signal(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation IO::Async::Signal(3pm)NAME
"IO::Async::Signal" - event callback on receipt of a POSIX signal
SYNOPSIS
use IO::Async::Signal;
use IO::Async::Loop;
my $loop = IO::Async::Loop->new;
my $signal = IO::Async::Signal->new(
name => "HUP",
on_receipt => sub {
print "I caught SIGHUP
";
},
);
$loop->add( $signal );
$loop->run;
DESCRIPTION
This subclass of IO::Async::Notifier invokes its callback when a particular POSIX signal is received.
Multiple objects can be added to a "Loop" that all watch for the same signal. The callback functions will all be invoked, in no particular
order.
EVENTS
The following events are invoked, either using subclass methods or CODE references in parameters:
on_receipt
Invoked when the signal is received.
PARAMETERS
The following named parameters may be passed to "new" or "configure":
name => STRING
The name of the signal to watch. This should be a bare name like "TERM". Can only be given at construction time.
on_receipt => CODE
CODE reference for the "on_receipt" event.
Once constructed, the "Signal" will need to be added to the "Loop" before it will work.
