PROLOG

       This  manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the correspond-
       ing Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME

       raise - send a signal to the executing process

SYNOPSIS

       #include <signal.h>

       int raise(int sig);

DESCRIPTION

       The raise() function shall send the signal sig to the executing	thread or process.  If a signal handler is called,  the  raise()  function
       shall not return until after the signal handler does.

       If the implementation supports the Threads option, the effect of the raise() function shall be equivalent to calling:

	      pthread_kill(pthread_self(), sig);

       Otherwise, the effect of the raise() function shall be equivalent to calling:

	      kill(getpid(), sig);

RETURN VALUE

       Upon  successful  completion,  0  shall	be returned. Otherwise, a non-zero value shall be returned  and errno shall be set to indicate the
       error.

ERRORS

       The raise() function shall fail if:

       EINVAL The value of the sig argument is an invalid signal number.

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES

       None.

APPLICATION USAGE

       None.

RATIONALE

       The term "thread" is an extension to the ISO C standard.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS

       None.

NAME

       sigfillset - initialize and fill a signal set

SYNOPSIS

       #include <signal.h>

       int sigfillset(sigset_t *set);

DESCRIPTION

       The sigfillset() function shall initialize the  signal  set  pointed  to  by  set,  such  that  all  signals  defined  in  this	volume	of
       IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 are included.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, sigfillset() shall return 0; otherwise, it shall return -1 and set errno to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES

       None.

APPLICATION USAGE

       None.

RATIONALE

       Refer to sigemptyset().

FUTURE DIRECTIONS

       None.
