| Summary | 0000077: stop and cont signals | ||||
| Description | _____________________________________________________________________________ OBJECTION Enhancement Request Number 14 gwc:xxxxxxxxxxxxx Defect in XSH 2.4.1 (rdvk# 4) [gwc stop and cont signals] Fri, 12 Dec 2008 15:17:48 +0000 _____________________________________________________________________________ The penultimate paragraph of section 2.4.1 states: "When any stop signal (SIGSTOP, SIGTSTP, SIGTTIN, SIGTTOU) is generated for a process, any pending SIGCONT signals for that process shall be discarded. Conversely, when SIGCONT is generated for a process, all pending stop signals for that process shall be discarded. When SIGCONT is generated for a process that is stopped, the process shall be continued, even if the SIGCONT signal is blocked or ignored. If SIGCONT is blocked and not ignored, it shall remain pending until it is either unblocked or a stop signal is generated for the process." This text needs to be updated to take account of threads. The change below is based on the suggestion made by Philip Guenther in austin-group-l 11587. | ||||
| Desired Action | Replace the paragraph with: "When any stop signal (SIGSTOP, SIGTSTP, SIGTTIN, SIGTTOU) is generated for a process or thread, all pending SIGCONT signals for that process or any of the threads within that process shall be discarded. Conversely, when SIGCONT is generated for a process or thread, all pending stop signals for that process or any of the threads within that process shall be discarded. When SIGCONT is generated for a process that is stopped, the process shall be continued, even if the SIGCONT signal is ignored by the process or is blocked by all threads within the process and there are no threads in a call to a sigwait() function selecting SIGCONT. If SIGCONT is blocked by all threads within the process, there are no threads in a call to a sigwait() function selecting SIGCONT, and SIGCONT is not ignored by the process, the SIGCONT signal shall remain pending on the process until it is either unblocked by a thread or a thread calls a sigwait() function selecting SIGCONT, or a stop signal is generated for the process or any of the threads within the process." | ||||

Interpretation response ------------------------ The standard states the requirements for the SIGSTOP and SIGCONT signals, and conforming implementations must conform to this. However, concerns have been raised about this which are being referred to the sponsor." Rationale: ------------- None. Notes to the Editor (not part of this interpretation): ------------------------------------------------------- Make the change suggested by the submitter |
