POSIX_SPAWNATTR_GETSIGMASK(3C) Standard C Library Functions

NAME

posix_spawnattr_getsigmask, posix_spawnattr_setsigmask - get and set
spawn-sigmask attribute of spawn attributes object

SYNOPSIS

#include <signal.h>
#include <spawn.h>

int posix_spawnattr_getsigmask(const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attr,
sigset_t *restrict sigmask);


int posix_spawnattr_setsigmask(posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attr,
const sigset_t *restrict sigmask);

DESCRIPTION

The posix_spawnattr_getsigmask() function obtains the value of the spawn-
sigmask attribute from the attributes object referenced by attr.


The posix_spawnattr_setsigmask() function sets the spawn-sigmask
attribute in an initialized attributes object referenced by attr.


The spawn-sigmask attribute represents the signal mask in effect in the
new process image of a spawn operation (if POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGMASK is set
in the spawn-flags attribute). The default value of this attribute is
unspecified.

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, posix_spawnattr_getsigmask() returns 0 and
stores the value of the spawn-sigmask attribute of attr into the object
referenced by the sigmask parameter. Otherwise, an error number is
returned to indicate the error.


Upon successful completion, posix_spawnattr_setsigmask() returns 0.
Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.

ERRORS

These functions may fail if:

EINVAL
The value specified by attr is invalid.


The posix_spawnattr_setsigmask() function may fail if:

EINVAL
The value of the attribute being set is not valid.
