minix/servers/pm/signal.c

/* This file handles signals, which are asynchronous events and are generally
 * a messy and unpleasant business.  Signals can be generated by the KILL
 * system call, or from the keyboard (SIGINT) or from the clock (SIGALRM).
 * In all cases control eventually passes to check_sig() to see which processes
 * can be signaled.  The actual signaling is done by sig_proc().
 *
 * The entry points into this file are:
 *   do_sigaction:	perform the SIGACTION system call
 *   do_sigpending:	perform the SIGPENDING system call
 *   do_sigprocmask:	perform the SIGPROCMASK system call
 *   do_sigreturn:	perform the SIGRETURN system call
 *   do_sigsuspend:	perform the SIGSUSPEND system call
 *   do_kill:		perform the KILL system call
 *   process_ksig:	process a signal an behalf of the kernel
 *   sig_proc:		interrupt or terminate a signaled process
 *   check_sig:		check which processes to signal with sig_proc()
 *   check_pending:	check if a pending signal can now be delivered
 *   restart_sigs: 	restart signal work after finishing a VFS call
