Manual Pages  — POSIX_SPAWNATTR_GETSIGMASK

NAME

posix_spawnattr_getsigmask, posix_spawnattr_setsigmask – get and set the spawn-sigmask attribute of a spawn attributes object

CONTENTS

LIBRARY

Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

#include <spawn.h>

int
posix_spawnattr_getsigmask(const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attr, sigset_t *restrict sigmask);

int
posix_spawnattr_setsigmask(posix_spawnattr_t *attr, const sigset_t *restrict sigmask);

DESCRIPTION

The posix_spawnattr_getsigmask() function obtains the value of the spawn-sigmask attribute from the attributes object referenced by attr.

The posix_spawnattr_setsigmask() function sets the spawn-sigmask attribute in an initialized attributes object referenced by attr.

The spawn-sigmask attribute represents the signal mask in effect in the new process image of a spawn operation (if POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGMASK is set in the spawn-flags attribute). The default value of this attribute is unspecified.

RETURN VALUES

The posix_spawnattr_getsigmask() and posix_spawnattr_setsigmask() functions return zero.

STANDARDS

The posix_spawnattr_getsigmask() and posix_spawnattr_setsigmask() functions conform to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 ("POSIX.1").

“ "I liken starting one's computing career with Unix, say as an undergraduate, to being born in East Africa. It is intolerably hot, your body is covered with lice and flies, you are malnourished and you suffer from numerous curable diseases. But, as far as young East Africans can tell, this is simply the natural condition and they live within it. By the time they find out differently, it is too late. They already think that the writing of shell scripts is a natural act." ”
