NAME
     raise - send signal to program

SYNOPSIS
     #include <signal.h>

     int raise (int sig);

DESCRIPTION
     raise sends the signal sig to the executing program.

     raise returns zero if the operation succeeds. Otherwise,
     raise returns -1 and errno is set to indicate the error.
     raise uses kill to send the signal to the executing program:

          kill(getpid(), sig);

     See kill(2) for a detailed list of failure conditions.  See
     signal(2) for a list of signals.
