SIGSUSPEND(2)                 System Calls Manual                SIGSUSPEND(2)

NAME
       sigsuspend - suspend until signalled

SYNOPSIS
       #include <signal.h>

       int sigsuspend(const sigset_t *set)

DESCRIPTION
       Sigsuspend()  installs  the  signal mask referenced by set and suspends
       the process until signalled.  The signal is handled, the signal mask is
       restored  to  the  value  it  had before the sigsuspend() call and call
       returns.

SEE ALSO
       pause(2), sigaction(2), sigpending(2), sigprocmask(2), sigset(3).

DIAGNOSTICS
       Sigsuspend() never returns normally, so  it  always  returns  -1.   The
       error  code  is  either  EINTR indicating that a signal has arrived, or
       EFAULT for a bad set address.
