 Page: 1  Line: 392  Section: nanosleep


 Problem:

 XSH/TC1/D3/31 would add "SEE ALSO: nanosleep()" to the nanosleep section.
 This is not helpful to readers.

 The original ERN asked for "SEE ALSO: clock_nanosleep()".

 Action:

 At line 392, change "nanosleep" to "clock_nanosleep".

 [Ed recommendation: Accept]

 Problem:

 See also my comment {dwcXBD-1} in in my comments on XBD TC1 draft 3.

 When we were addressing the issue raised by Barry Hedquist against
 <signal.h> in XBD TC1 draft 2, we went too far (largely due to a mistake
 on my part).  The sa_handler element of struct sigaction can indeed be a
 pointer to a signal-catching function (taking a single argument) or one
 of the macros SIG_DFL or SIG_IGN.  The sa_sigaction element of struct
 sigaction should only be a pointer to a signal-catching function (taking
 three arguments).

 Action:

 To be consistent with the text in the description of the sigaction()
 function, the following changes to XSH6 should replace XSH TC1 draft 3
 line 577:
                 "Pointer to a signal-catching function or one of the macros
                 SIG_IGN or SIG_DFL."
         Change the Description field in the last entry in the table from:
                 "Signal catching function."
         To:
                 "Pointer to a signal-catching function."
