Get the “ignored signals” attribute from a spawn attributes object

Synopsis:

#include <spawn.h>

int posix_spawnattr_getsigignore(
       const posix_spawnattr_t *_Restrict attrp,
       sigset_t *_Restrict sigset_p);

Arguments:

attrp
A pointer to the spawn attributes object that you want to query.

Library:

Use the -l c option to qcc to link against this library. This library is usually included automatically.

Description:

The posix_spawnattr_getsigignore() routine retrieves the “ignored signals” attribute from the given spawn attributes object. You must have already initialized the spawn attributes object by calling posix_spawnattr_init().

This attribute specifies the set of signals that should be ignored by the spawned process. This setting takes only effect if the POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGIGN flag is set in the spawn attributes; to set this flag, call posix_spawnattr_setxflags().

To set the value of this attribute, call posix_spawnattr_setsigignore().

For more information about spawn attributes, see the entry for posix_spawn().
