I think in normal case, pthread_cond_signal will wake up one thread, but other events for example, UNIX signal and fork() may interrupt a thread sleeping in kernel, and cause pthread_cond_wait to return to userland, this is called spurious wakeup, and other events, I can not think of yet, but I believe they exist.
Does this mean that pthread_cond_signal can also return EINTR? This isn't in pthread_cond_signal(3) either.
Is this the case that all system calls should be assumed to be able to return EINTR or only those that have EINTR in their man pages?
