signal handling while in a function other than main

Hi, I have a main loop which calls a sub loop, which finally returns to the main loop itself. The main loop runs when a flag is set. Now, I have a signal handler for SIGINT, which resets the flag and thus stops the main loop. Suppose I send SIGINT while the program is in subloop, I get an error...

NAME

       XPAMacros - XPA Server Callback Macros

SYNOPSIS

	 #include <xpa.h>

	 xpa_class, xpa_name, xpa_method, xpa_cmdfd, xpa_datafd,
	 xpa_sendian, xpa_cendian

DESCRIPTION

       Server routines have  access to information about the XPA being called via the following macros (each of which takes the xpa handle as an
       argument):

	 macro		       explanation
	 ------ 	       -----------
	 xpa_class	       class of this xpa
	 xpa_name	       name of this xpa
	 xpa_method	       method string (inet or local connect info)
	 xpa_cmdfd	       fd of command socket
	 xpa_datafd	       fd of data socket
	 xpa_sendian	       endian-ness of server ("little" or "big")
	 xpa_cendian	       endian-ness of client ("little" or "big"

       The argument to these macros is the call_data pointer that is passed to the server procedure.  This pointer should be type case to XPA in
       the server routine:

	 XPA xpa = (XPA)call_data;

       The most important of these macros is xpa_datafd().  A server routine that sets "fillbuf=false" in receive_mode or send_mode can use this
       macro to perform I/O directly to/from the client, rather than using buf.

       The xpa_cendian and xpa_sendian macros can be used together to determine if the data transferred from the client is byte swapped with
       respect to the server. Values for these macros are: "little", "big", or "?".  In order to do a proper conversion, you still need to know
       the format of the data (i.e., byte swapping is dependent on the size of the data element being converted).
