Digital UNIX Diffs - sigsuspend(5) Digital UNIX Diffs - sigsuspend(5)NAME
sigsuspend, sigpause - Atomically change the set of blocked signals
and wait for a signal
SYNOPSIS
#include <signal.h> int sigsuspend(
sigset_t *signal_set_mask); int sigpause (
int signal_bit_mask);
PARAMETERS
Specifies the set of signals to block. Specifies which signals to
block.
DIFFERENCESsignal-mech(5): System V vs BSD Signal Handling Differences
The sigpause(3) function was provided by System V and BSD systems to
atomically block a set of signals and then wait for a signal.
Digital UNIX provides a compatibility function sigpause(3). However,
it is suggested that code written to atomically block a set of signals
and then wait for a signal use the POSIX standard function sigsusā
pend(2).
