.SH PROLOG

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.

The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult

the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),

or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

.SH NAME

sigdelset

\(em delete a signal from a signal set

.SH SYNOPSIS

.LP

.nf

#include <signal.h>

.P

int sigdelset(sigset_t *\fIset\fP, int \fIsigno\fP);

.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION

The

\fIsigdelset\fR()

function deletes the individual signal specified by

.IR signo

from the signal set pointed to by

.IR set .

.P

Applications should call either

\fIsigemptyset\fR()

or

\fIsigfillset\fR()

at least once for each object of type

.BR sigset_t

prior to any other use of that object. If such an object is not

initialized in this way, but is nonetheless supplied as an argument to

any of

\fIpthread_sigmask\fR(),

\fIsigaction\fR(),

\fIsigaddset\fR(),

\fIsigdelset\fR(),

\fIsigismember\fR(),

\fIsigpending\fR(),

\fIsigprocmask\fR(),

\fIsigsuspend\fR(),

\fIsigtimedwait\fR(),

\fIsigwait\fR(),

or

\fIsigwaitinfo\fR(),

the results are undefined.

.SH "RETURN VALUE"

Upon successful completion,

\fIsigdelset\fR()

shall return 0; otherwise, it shall return \(mi1 and set

.IR errno

to indicate the error.

.SH ERRORS

The

\fIsigdelset\fR()

function may fail if:

.TP

.BR EINVAL

The

.IR signo

argument is not a valid signal number, or is an unsupported signal

number.
