Re: Real Time Signals In Powerpc Linux

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




See linux/include/asm-xxx/signal.h in your kernel tree, where xxx is the specific arch you are interested in.

You will see definitions for a series of _NSIG macros. These define the number of available signals and the byte size of the signal mask data type. The stuff at the bottom is educational as well. You can then follow those defines into other header files as needed.

Happy hacking,

I am working on a linux (v 2.4.20) based powerpc(8260) board. During
development of an application program I planned to use real time
signals(SIGRTMIN to SIGRTMAX) for interprocess communication. On giving
the command 'kill -l' on the terminal window of ppc linux  it displayed
only 32 signals while giving the same command on an Intel based Linux PC
(same kernel version) showed all 64 signals.

Anyone having idea whether these signals are present in powerpc Linux
kernal v 2.4.20 ?
