PROLOG top

   This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
   Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
   corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
   the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME top

   sigdelset — delete a signal from a signal set

SYNOPSIS top

   #include <signal.h>

   int sigdelset(sigset_t *_set_, int _signo_);

DESCRIPTION top

   The _sigdelset_() function deletes the individual signal specified
   by _signo_ from the signal set pointed to by _set_.

   Applications should call either _sigemptyset_() or _sigfillset_() at
   least once for each object of type **sigset_t** prior to any other use
   of that object. If such an object is not initialized in this way,
   but is nonetheless supplied as an argument to any of
   _pthreadsigmask_(), _sigaction_(), _sigaddset_(), _sigdelset_(),
   _sigismember_(), _sigpending_(), _sigprocmask_(), _sigsuspend_(),
   _sigtimedwait_(), _sigwait_(), or _sigwaitinfo_(), the results are
   undefined.

RETURN VALUE top

   Upon successful completion, _sigdelset_() shall return 0; otherwise,
   it shall return -1 and set _[errno](../man3/errno.3.html)_ to indicate the error.

ERRORS top

   The _sigdelset_() function may fail if:

   **EINVAL** The _signo_ argument is not a valid signal number, or is an
          unsupported signal number.
