I can't get sigaction to work with SA_SIGINFO type of handler. I can see
that this is already in the kernel but does it work?
This is the program that doesn't work:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <asm/signal.h> /* ???! */
#include <setjmp.h>
jmp_buf main_loop;
void sigsegv_handler (int arg, struct siginfo *si, void *parg)
{
printf ("Signal SEGV! si = 0x%p\n", si);
longjmp (main_loop, 1);
}
int
main ()
{
char *f = NULL;
int retval;
struct sigaction sa;
sigaction (SIGSEGV, NULL, &sa);
sa.sa_sigaction = sigsegv_handler;
sa.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO;
sigemptyset (&sa.sa_mask);
retval = sigaction (SIGSEGV, &sa, NULL);
if (retval < 0)
exit (10);
printf ("Entering the loop\n");
if (setjmp (main_loop))
printf ("Back at main_loop\n");
else
*f = 0;
return 0;
}
This results in the following output:
Signal SEGV! si = 0x(nil)
Back at main_loop
Signal SEGV! si = 0x(nil)
Back at main_loop
[...]
So, the si parameter (as well as parg) is NULL. The kernel didn't realize
that I have a siginfo type of handler, did it?
Is it something with the program or the kernel?
Thanks in advance,
