KDOOM (2)
Deliver a signal to a LAM process.
SYNOPSIS
#include <lam_ksignal.h>
int kdoom (int pid, int signum);
DESCRIPTION
The function
kdoom()
enables one LAM process to deliver an asynchronous signal to
another LAM process on the local node, including itself.
The
pid
argument is the identifier of the process to which the signal will
be delivered.
Process identifiers refer to other LAM processes,
except for the special identifier 0, which refers to the caller.
The
signum
argument identifies the signal to be delivered.
These signals are completely apart from the signals provided by
the native operating system.
LAM signals, defined in <lam_ksignal.h>, are listed below.
\w'LAM_SIGRELEASE 'u +\w'15* 'u
LAM_SIGTRACE 1 unload trace data
LAM_SIGUDIE 4 terminate
LAM_SIGARREST 5 suspend execution
LAM_SIGRELEASE 6 continue execution
LAM_SIGA 7 user defined
LAM_SIGB 8 user defined
LAM_SIGFUSE 9 node is about to die
LAM_SIGSHRINK 10 another node has died
ERRORS
ENOTPROCESS
The process whose process identifier was passed to
kdoom()
is not a LAM process.
EINVAL
The signal number is invalid.
ENOTATTACHED
The calling process is not a LAM process.
