#ifndef VLIBC_SIGNAL_H
#define VLIBC_SIGNAL_H
/*
* vlibc — <signal.h>.
*
* Signal handling (POSIX.1-2008 base) plus the XSI/obsolete conveniences.
* The core calls ride the kernel's rt_* signal ABI (SYS_rt_sigaction,
* SYS_rt_sigprocmask, SYS_rt_sigpending, SYS_rt_sigsuspend,
* SYS_rt_sigtimedwait, SYS_rt_sigqueueinfo) with the x86_64 kernel
* sigset size of one 64-bit word.
*
* Level 1 (onlyposix): signal numbers, SIG_DFL/SIG_IGN/SIG_ERR, the
* sigset_t manipulation and query calls, sigaction,
* sigprocmask, sigpending, sigsuspend, sigwait,
* sigwaitinfo, sigtimedwait, kill, killpg, raise,
* pause, alarm, abort, sigqueue, and the signal()
* convenience.
* Level 2 (muslmimic): sigaltstack (and stack_t / SS_* / SIGSTKSZ),
* ualarm, siginterrupt, psignal, psiginfo (XSI /
* obsolete — sigaction/sigprocmask/alarm are POSIX
* base and stay at level 1).
*
* The layout facts below are x86_64 kernel-ABI:
*
* - The kernel sigset_t is 8 bytes (one word); signal N occupies bit
* N-1, signals 1..64 are usable (32..64 are the realtime signals).
* The same single-word sigset_t is declared by <sys/select.h> and
* <poll.h> under the shared VLIBC_SIGSET_T_DEFINED guard so pselect/
* ppoll and the sig* API agree on the type no matter the include order.
* - SIG_DFL/SIG_IGN/SIG_ERR are the magic handler values 0/1/-1 cast to
* the handler type; the kernel dispatches on the raw value.
* - The PUBLIC struct sigaction is the POSIX layout (handler, mask,
* int flags, restorer). The kernel's rt_sigaction ABI layout is
* DIFFERENT (handler, flags, restorer, mask — flags is a full word);
* src/signal/sigaction.c converts between the two.
* - SA_RESTORER (0x04000000) is the kernel-private bit that makes the
* kernel jump to the user-supplied sa_restorer trampoline when the
* handler returns; every real (non-DFL/IGN) handler install sets it
* (see sigaction.c). It is masked out of the flags reported back.
*
* siginfo_t is the minimal 128-byte layout shared with <sys/wait.h>
* under the VLIBC_INTERNAL_SIGINFO_DEFINED guard (see the block below);
* either header may be included first. No SIGEV_* / SI_* constants are
* defined: the signal-handling details behind them are owned by a later
* todo and nothing here needs the names.
