PROBE::SIGNAL.SEND(3stap) Signal Tapset PROBE::SIGNAL.SEND(3stap)
probe::signal.send.return - Signal being sent to a process
completed (deprecated in SystemTap 2.1)
signal.send.return
retstr
The return value to either __group_send_sig_info,
specific_send_sig_info, or send_sigqueue
name
The name of the function used to send out the signal
send2queue
Indicates whether the sent signal was sent to an existing
sigqueue
shared
Indicates whether the sent signal is shared by the thread
group.
The signal's sender. (correct?)
Possible __group_send_sig_info and specific_send_sig_info return
values are as follows;
0 -- The signal is successfully sent to a process, which means
that, (1) the signal was ignored by the receiving process, (2)
this is a non-RT signal and the system already has one queued, and
(3) the signal was successfully added to the sigqueue of the
receiving process.
-EAGAIN -- The sigqueue of the receiving process is overflowing,
the signal was RT, and the signal was sent by a user using
something other than kill.
Possible send_group_sigqueue and send_sigqueue return values are
as follows;
0 -- The signal was either successfully added into the sigqueue of
the receiving process, or a SI_TIMER entry is already queued (in
which case, the overrun count will be simply incremented).
1 -- The signal was ignored by the receiving process.
-1 -- (send_sigqueue only) The task was marked exiting, allowing *
posix_timer_event to redirect it to the group leader.
