However, once you use "sigaction()", you don't need to re-arm the signal handler any more, so I'd suggest a simpler patch like this instead.. Junio, I think this confirms/explains the Solaris breakage. I'll re-send the "anal stdio semantics" version of the patch on top of this in the next email. Linus ---- Subject: Fix Solaris stdio signal handling stupidities This uses sigaction() to install the SIGALRM handler with SA_RESTART, so that Solaris stdio doesn't break completely when a signal interrupts a read. Thanks to Jason Riedy for confirming the silly Solaris signal behaviour.
