psignal(3C)                                              psignal(3C)


       NAME
             psignal, psiginfo - system signal messages

       SYNOPSIS
             #include <siginfo.h>
             void psignal (int sig, const char *s);
             void psiginfo (siginfo_t *pinfo, const char *s);

       DESCRIPTION
             psignal and psiginfo produce messages on the standard error
             output describing a signal.  sig is a signal that may have
             been passed as the first argument to a signal handler.  pinfo
             is a pointer to a siginfo structure that may have been passed
             as the second argument to an enhanced signal handler [see
             sigaction(2)].  The argument string s is printed first, then a
             colon and a blank, then the message and a newline.
