отправить сигнал процессу, указанному дескриптором файла (send a signal to a process specified by a file descriptor)
Имя (Name)
pidfd_send_signal - send a signal to a process specified by a
file descriptor
Синопсис (Synopsis)
#include <linux/signal.h> /* Definition of SIG* constants */
#include <signal.h> /* Definition of SI_* constants */
#include <sys/syscall.h> /* Definition of SYS_* constants */
#include <unistd.h>
int syscall(SYS_pidfd_send_signal, int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info,
unsigned int flags);
Note: glibc provides no wrapper for pidfd_send_signal(),
necessitating the use of syscall(2).
Описание (Description)
The pidfd_send_signal() system call sends the signal sig to the
target process referred to by pidfd, a PID file descriptor that
refers to a process.
If the info argument points to a siginfo_t buffer, that buffer
should be populated as described in rt_sigqueueinfo(2).
If the info argument is a NULL pointer, this is equivalent to
specifying a pointer to a siginfo_t buffer whose fields match the
values that are implicitly supplied when a signal is sent using
kill(2):
* si_signo is set to the signal number;
* si_errno is set to 0;
* si_code is set to SI_USER;
* si_pid is set to the caller's PID; and
* si_uid is set to the caller's real user ID.
The calling process must either be in the same PID namespace as
the process referred to by pidfd, or be in an ancestor of that
namespace.
The flags argument is reserved for future use; currently, this
argument must be specified as 0.
Возвращаемое значение (Return value)
On success, pidfd_send_signal() returns 0. On error, -1 is
returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
Ошибки (Error)
EBADF pidfd is not a valid PID file descriptor.
EINVAL sig is not a valid signal.
EINVAL The calling process is not in a PID namespace from which
it can send a signal to the target process.
EINVAL flags is not 0.
EPERM The calling process does not have permission to send the
signal to the target process.
EPERM pidfd doesn't refer to the calling process, and
info.si_code is invalid (see rt_sigqueueinfo(2)).
ESRCH The target process does not exist (i.e., it has terminated
and been waited on).
Версии (Versions)
pidfd_send_signal() first appeared in Linux 5.1.
Стандарты (Conforming to)
pidfd_send_signal() is Linux specific.
Примечание (Note)
PID file descriptors
The pidfd argument is a PID file descriptor, a file descriptor
that refers to process. Such a file descriptor can be obtained
in any of the following ways:
* by opening a /proc/[pid] directory;
* using pidfd_open(2); or
* via the PID file descriptor that is returned by a call to
clone(2) or clone3(2) that specifies the CLONE_PIDFD flag.
The pidfd_send_signal() system call allows the avoidance of race
conditions that occur when using traditional interfaces (such as
kill(2)) to signal a process. The problem is that the
traditional interfaces specify the target process via a process
ID (PID), with the result that the sender may accidentally send a
signal to the wrong process if the originally intended target
process has terminated and its PID has been recycled for another
process. By contrast, a PID file descriptor is a stable
reference to a specific process; if that process terminates,
pidfd_send_signal() fails with the error ESRCH.
