2.4 kernel: sigsuspend response to simultaneously received signals

Hi,
I have a question regarding the behavior of sigsuspend() sys call when it receives more than one signals from its signal set simultaneously.

It is known that sigsuspend returns only after the signal catching function returns. So if sigsuspend receives more than one signals at the same time, would it return after "both" handlers return or after the first handler returns ?

Any help on this would be more than appreciated,
Thanks,
Shvetima.
