Understanding SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2: Mechanisms for Triggering and Handling User-Defined Signals
This article provides an in-depth exploration of SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2 signals in C, which are user-defined signals not automatically triggered by system events but explicitly sent via programming. It begins by explaining the basic concepts and classification of signals, then focuses on the method of sending signals using the kill() function, including process ID acquisition and parameter passing. Through code examples, it demonstrates how to register signal handlers to respond to these signals and discusses considerations when using the signal() function. Additionally, the article supplements with best practices for signal handling, such as avoiding complex operations in handlers to ensure program stability and maintainability. Finally, a complete example program illustrates the full workflow from signal sending to processing, helping readers comprehensively grasp the application scenarios of user-defined signals.
