How do I receive receive a signal sent with sigqueue in a c program (on linux)?
If just use kill to send a signal I just add a receiver with something like this
signal(SIGUSR1, sigusr1);
that point to a simple function like this:
void sigusr1()
{
signal(SIGUSR1,sigusr1);
printf("SIGUSR1 ....\n");
}
But if I send a signal with sigqueue, how would I do then?
Thanks Johan
Add a sigaction:
struct sigaction action;
action.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO;
action.sa_sigaction = &sigusr2;
if (sigaction(SIGUSR2, &action, NULL) == -1) {
perror("sigusr: sigaction");
_exit(1);
}
Where sigusr2 would look something like this:
void sigusr2(int signo, siginfo_t *info, void *extra)
{
void *ptr_val = info->si_value.sival_ptr;
int int_val = info->si_value.sival_int;
printf("Signal %d, value %d \n", signo, int_val);
}
And just for ref a sigqueue example
sigval value;
for(int i=10;i<20;i++)
{
value.sival_int = i;
sigqueue(pid,SIGUSR2, value);
}
