SIGSETOPS(3)                        Linux Programmer's Manual                        SIGSETOPS(3)



NAME
       sigemptyset,  sigfillset, sigaddset, sigdelset, sigismember - POSIX signal set operations.


SYNOPSIS
       #include 


       int sigemptyset(sigset_t *set);

       int sigfillset(sigset_t *set);

       int sigaddset(sigset_t *set, int signum);

       int sigdelset(sigset_t *set, int signum);

       int sigismember(const sigset_t *set, int signum);


DESCRIPTION
       The sigsetops(3) functions allow the manipulation of POSIX signal sets.

       sigemptyset initializes the signal set given by set to empty, with  all  signals  excluded
       from the set.

       sigfillset initializes set to full, including all signals.

       sigaddset and sigdelset add and delete respectively signal signum from set.

       sigismember tests whether signum is a member of set.

RETURN VALUE
       sigemptyset, sigfillset, sigaddset and sigdelset return 0 on success and -1 on error.

       sigismember returns 1 if signum is a member of set, 0 if signum is not a member, and -1 on
       error.

ERRORS
       EINVAL sig is not a valid signal.
