Thanks pludi, I love your answer which is fairly new to me.
So basically you do:
Which I guess means: "waiting becomes 0 as soon as the signal USR1 is received"
And then you do:
Which I guess means: "Send signal USR1 to the process"
Can you confirm?
I read through man kill and I still have one question?
Are you strictly limited to the list of signals mentioned in the man page?
What makes you choose USR1?
I guess you need a safe signal that would not be easily used by other processes.

pmsignal
PMSIGNAL(1) General Commands Manual PMSIGNAL(1)NAME
pmsignal - send a signal to one or more processes
SYNOPSIS
$PCP_BINADM_DIR/pmsignal [-a|-l] [-n] [-s signal] [PID ...|name ...]
DESCRIPTION
pmsignal provides a cross-platform event signalling mechanism for use with tools from the Performance Co-Pilot toolkit. It can be used to
send a named signal (only HUP, USR1, TERM, and KILL are accepted). to one or more processes. The processes are specified using PID or the
binary name (with -a option).
If a signal is not specified, then the TERM signal will be sent.
On Linux and UNIX platforms, pmsignal is a simple wrapper around the kill(1) command. On Windows, the is no direct equivalent to this
mechanism, and so an alternate mechanism has been implemented - this is only honoured by PCP tools, however, not all Windows utilities.
PCP ENVIRONMENT
Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the file and directory names used by PCP. On each installation, the
file /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values for these variables. The $PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative configura-
tion file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
SEE ALSO kill(1), killall(1), pcp.conf(5) and pcp.env(5).
