Ok, so: I have to have some random numbers - Can I do that better? (1)
Second - I try to block SIGUSR1 -I will be grateful if you could tell if I do this in the right way.
In the singal will be some read function but first I want to have sure that everything is all right.
Hi Everybody,
I have gone through man of sigwait and new to UNIX signals. Could anyone explain me about the following lines mentioned in sigwait man help ?
"The selection of a signal in set is independent of the signal
mask of the calling thread or LWP. This means a thread or
LWP can ... (1 Reply)
Hello,
Can anyone, please, guide me on the use of nanosleep. I'm learning threads. I want to introduce a delay (not nested for loops, something more customizable). Nanosleep looked useful (or any other form of customizable and easy-to-use delay). Sleep is too long. :) (2 Replies)
Hi,
Ho do I differentiate system call from library call?
for example if I am using chmod , how do I find out if it is a system call or library call?
Thanks

Hi,
I have encountered the following problem on Solaris 10:
I have a thread that is asleep on nanosleep (set to 24 hours).
Something that happens on another thread, causes the nanosleep to exit, even though the time has not elapsed.
The returned value is 0 (so it doesn't look like it... (1 Reply)
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)

Application runs on both solaris 6 and 10.
solaris 6 having only posix4.so library, solaris 10 having libposix4.so and librt.so
Can we link application to lposix4 instead of lrt for nanosleep, sothat application will run in both machines? (2 Replies)

nanosleep(3) Library Functions Manual nanosleep(3)NAME
nanosleep - Suspends a process from execution for the specified timer interval (P1003.1b)
LIBRARY
Realtime Library (librt.so, librt.a)
SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
int nanosleep (
const struct timespec *rqtp,
struct timespec *rmtp);
PARAMETERS
*rqtp A pointer to the timespec data structure that defines the time interval during which the calling process is suspended.
*rmtp A pointer to the timespec data structure that receives the amount of time remaining in the previously requested interval, or zero
if the full interval has elapsed.
DESCRIPTION
The nanosleep function suspends a process until one of the following conditions is met:
o The time interval specified in rqtp has elapsed.
o A signal is delivered to the calling process and the action is to deliver a signal to a signal-catching function (or to terminate the
process).
The suspension time may be longer than requested because the argument value is rounded up to an integer multiple of the clock resolution,
or due to the scheduling of other activity. Except when it is interrupted by a signal, the suspension time is not less than the time speci-
fied by the rqtp argument (as measured by the system clock).
RETURN VALUES
When the nanosleep function returns because the requested time has elapsed, the call is successful and a value of 0 (zero) is returned.
If the nanosleep function returns because it was interrupted by a signal, a value of -1 is returned. If the rmtp argument is not NULL, the
timespec structure referenced by the call is updated to contain the time remaining in the interval. If the rmtp argument is NULL, the
remaining time is not returned.
On an unsuccessful call, a value of -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate that an error occurred.
ERRORS
The nanosleep function fails under the following conditions:
[EINTR] The nanosleep function was interrupted by a signal.
[EINVAL] The rqtp argument specified a nanosecond value less than zero or greater than or equal to 1000 million.
