/*------------------------------------------------------------------------- * * pqsignal.c-- * reliable BSD-style signal(2) routine stolen from RWW who stole it * from Stevens... * * Copyright (c) 1994, Regents of the University of California * * * IDENTIFICATION * $Header: /cvsroot/pgsql/src/backend/libpq/pqsignal.c,v 1.7 1997/09/08 02:23:19 momjian Exp $ * * NOTES * This shouldn't be in libpq, but the monitor and some other * things need it... * * A NOTE ABOUT SIGNAL HANDLING ACROSS THE VARIOUS PLATFORMS. * * config.h defines the macro USE_POSIX_SIGNALS for some platforms and * not for others. This file and pqsignal.h use that macro to decide * how to handle signalling. * * signal(2) handling - this is here because it affects some of * the frontend commands as well as the backend server. * * Ultrix and SunOS provide BSD signal(2) semantics by default. * * SVID2 and POSIX signal(2) semantics differ from BSD signal(2) * semantics. We can use the POSIX sigaction(2) on systems that * allow us to request restartable signals (SA_RESTART). * * Some systems don't allow restartable signals at all unless we * link to a special BSD library. * * We devoutly hope that there aren't any systems that provide * neither POSIX signals nor BSD signals. The alternative * is to do signal-handler reinstallation, which doesn't work well * at all. * ------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ #include #include #include pqsigfunc pqsignal(int signo, pqsigfunc func) { #if !defined(USE_POSIX_SIGNALS) return signal(signo, func); #else struct sigaction act, oact; act.sa_handler = func; sigemptyset(&act.sa_mask); act.sa_flags = 0; if (signo != SIGALRM) { act.sa_flags |= SA_RESTART; } if (sigaction(signo, &act, &oact) < 0) return (SIG_ERR); return (oact.sa_handler); #endif /* !USE_POSIX_SIGNALS */ }
