TRACE_SIGNAL_OVERFLO(9) 					      SIGNAL						   TRACE_SIGNAL_OVERFLO(9)

NAME
       trace_signal_overflow_fail - called when signal queue is overflow

SYNOPSIS
       void trace_signal_overflow_fail(int sig, int group, struct siginfo * info);

ARGUMENTS
       sig
	   signal number

       group
	   signal to process group or not (bool)

       info
	   pointer to struct siginfo

DESCRIPTION
       Kernel fails to generate 'sig' signal with 'info' siginfo, because siginfo queue is overflow, and the signal is dropped. 'group' is not 0
       if the signal will be sent to a process group. 'sig' is always one of RT signals.
