NAME

signals − signal numbers

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/signal.h>

DESCRIPTION

There are two ways to send a signal to a process.  The first, proc_signal(D3DK), can be used by non-STREAMS drivers.  The second, by using an M_SIG or M_PCSIG message, can be used by STREAMS drivers and modules.  The following is a list of the signals that drivers may send to processes. 

SIGHUPThe device has been disconnected. 

SIGINTThe interrupt character has been received. 

SIGQUITThe quit character has been received. 

SIGWINCHThe window size has changed. 

SIGURGUrgent data are available. 

SIGPOLLA pollable event has occurred. 

SIGTSTPInteractive stop of the process. 

NOTES

The signal SIGTSTP cannot be generated with proc_signal.  It is only valid when generated from a stream.
