KDOOM(2) LAM LOCAL LIBRARY KDOOM(2)NAMEkdoom - Deliver a signal to a LAM process.
SYNOPSIS
#include <lam_ksignal.h>
int kdoom (int pid, int signum);
DESCRIPTION
The function kdoom() enables one LAM process to deliver an asynchronous
signal to another LAM process on the local node, including itself.
The pid argument is the identifier of the process to which the signal
will be delivered. Process identifiers refer to other LAM processes,
except for the special identifier 0, which refers to the caller.
The signum argument identifies the signal to be delivered. These sig‐
nals are completely apart from the signals provided by the native oper‐
ating system. LAM signals, defined in <lam_ksignal.h>, are listed
below.
LAM_SIGTRACE 1 unload trace data
LAM_SIGUDIE 4 terminate
LAM_SIGARREST 5 suspend execution
LAM_SIGRELEASE 6 continue execution
LAM_SIGA 7 user defined
LAM_SIGB 8 user defined
LAM_SIGFUSE 9 node is about to die
LAM_SIGSHRINK 10 another node has died
ERRORS
ENOTPROCESS The process whose process identifier was passed to
kdoom() is not a LAM process.
EINVAL The signal number is invalid.
ENOTATTACHED The calling process is not a LAM process.
