I have a directory with 509 test cases that I've accumulated over the
years (I would have had more but, at one point, I though that the
directory named "test" was actually an errant program named "test" and
deleted it in a housekeeping task gone horribly wrong). So, I just
ran "gdb sigwait". Where sigwait is the program below.
But, just killing any program with a SIGTERM should demonstrate the
new functionality.
cgf
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <pthread.h>
static pthread_attr_t logger_attr;
static pthread_cond_t logger_cond;
static pthread_mutex_t logger_lock;
static pthread_t logger_tid;
static int pipefd[2];
void *logger_thread(void *arg)
{
int n;
char buffer[80];
setvbuf(stdout, NULL, _IOLBF, 0); // *** THIS DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY ***
sigset_t ss;
sigemptyset (&ss);
sigaddset (&ss, SIGTERM);
int sig;
puts ("waiting...");
printf ("%d = sigwait\n", sigwait (&ss, &sig));
printf ("sig %d\n", sig);
return NULL;
}
main()
{
fprintf (stdout, "in main\n");
pthread_attr_init(&logger_attr);
pthread_attr_setstacksize(&logger_attr,1048576);
pthread_attr_setdetachstate(&logger_attr,PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED);
pthread_create (&logger_tid, &logger_attr, logger_thread, NULL);
//setvbuf(stdout, NULL, _IOLBF, 0);
printf("test1\n");
fflush(stdout);
sleep(3);
printf ("calling pthread_kill(%p, SIGTERM)\n", (void *)logger_tid);
pthread_kill (logger_tid, SIGTERM);
sleep(1);
fprintf(stderr,"done\n");
}
