sigpending — examine pending signals
#include <signal.h>
int
sigpending( |
sigset_t * | set) ; |
sigpending
() returns the set
of signals that are pending for delivery to the calling
thread (i.e., the signals which have been raised while
blocked). The mask of pending signals is returned in
set
.
In versions of glibc up to and including 2.2.1, there is a
bug in the wrapper function for sigpending
() which means that information
about pending real-time signals is not correctly
returned.
