RT_SIGTIMEDWAIT(2) Linux Programmer's Guide RT_SIGTIMEDWAIT(2) NAME rt_sigtimedwait - Synchronously wait for queued signals specified in uthese SYNOPSIS long sys_rt_sigtimedwait (const sigset_t *uthese, siginfo_t *uinfo, const struct struct timespec *uts, size_t sigsetsize); DESCRIPTION rt_sigtimedwait synchronously waits for queued signals specified in uthese. The uinfo value, if non-NULL, indicates to the call to return a structure of type siginfo_t containing information about the signal. The uts variable enables an upper bound on the time for when the pro- cess is suspended. sigsetsize should indicate the size of a sigset_t type. RETURN VALUE rt_sigtimedwait returns 0 on success; otherwise, rt_sigqueueinfo re- turns one of the errors listed in the "Errors" section. ERRORS -EINVAL sigsetsize or uts was invalid. -EFAULT uinfo was invalid. -EAGAIN No signal in uthese was delivered in the uts time period. -EINTR The wait period was interrupted by a signal handler.
