SIGSETOPS(3) BSD Library Functions Manual SIGSETOPS(3)NAME
sigemptyset, sigfillset, sigaddset, sigdelset, sigismember -- manipulate signal sets
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <signal.h>
int
sigemptyset(sigset_t *set);
int
sigfillset(sigset_t *set);
int
sigaddset(sigset_t *set, int signo);
int
sigdelset(sigset_t *set, int signo);
int
sigismember(const sigset_t *set, int signo);
DESCRIPTION
These functions manipulate signal sets stored in a sigset_t. Either sigemptyset() or sigfillset() must be called for every object of type
sigset_t before any other use of the object.
The sigemptyset() function initializes a signal set to be empty.
The sigfillset() function initializes a signal set to contain all signals.
The sigaddset() function adds the specified signal signo to the signal set.
The sigdelset() function deletes the specified signal signo from the signal set.
The sigismember() function returns whether a specified signal signo is contained in the signal set.
RETURN VALUES
The sigismember() function returns 1 if the signal is a member of the set, 0 otherwise. The other functions return 0 upon success. A -1
return value indicates an error occurred and the global variable errno is set to indicate the reason.
ERRORS
These functions could fail if one of the following occurs:
[EINVAL] signo has an invalid value.
SEE ALSO kill(2), sigaction(2), sigpending(2), sigprocmask(2), sigsuspend(2)STANDARDS
These functions are defined by IEEE Std 1003.1-1988 (``POSIX.1'').

Hi:
I have some old code need to be compiled - which include a system call, the function name is: sigblock like:
.....
int holdnum = sigblock(sigmask(SIGCHLD));
....
but the compiler told me the sigblock cannot be found even I include signal.h. Looks like it is depricated - but I need to... (1 Reply)
I am having trouble with folowing
sigset_t s; // now s represents set of signals
sigemptyset(&s) ; // initialize this set and exclude all the signals from it.is it empty?
sigaddset(&s,SIGILL);//this set containts only SIGILL signal
sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK,&s,NULL);//lost on this one
Can... (3 Replies)

I know how to add signal to a set. But what if I want to add 2 or 3 signals to the set.
I know I can use sigaddset (&set,SIGBUS)....but what if I want to add SIGBUS and SIGALRM at once. Do i have to do it like this..
sigaddset (&set,SIGBUS);
sigaddset (&set,SIGALRM);
Is there another way to... (0 Replies)
I was wondering about following. If I have set of 3 signals. And they are all blocked.Now at some point in the program the set is unblocked. Which signal will be delivered first.This is my set....SIGTSTP,SIGQUIT,SIGINT.When I added them in the set and unblock them I did it in following order...

The man system says
During execution of the command, SIGCHLD will be blocked, and SIGINT and SIGQUIT will be ignored.
What does this mean?
And if i am making a function that does what system does how do i write this signal stuff? (19 Replies)
Hi.
I am writing client - server application using TCP sockets.
I need some very basic functionality, namely: how to check if another "participant" of the connection is still present?
I want to handle situations, when client is gone, or server breaks down, etc. (25 Replies)
Hi guys,
I need help on some function replacement cause I get obsolete function warning(and I must remove it):
-gethostbyaddr(arg1,arg2,arg3)
-gethostbyname(arg1)

can be replaced with getaddrinfo(arg1,arg2,arg3,arg4) but I'm not able to undestand how(libraries... (0 Replies)
Hi @ll :)
I have a problem with my code but first a short description:
