#define __NR_rt_sigprocmask        14

https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/sigprocmask.2.html

today's thread is again mostly a continuation of the previous thread's discussion. we will focus on linux signals in general. from the manpage, these two excerpts are what i feel is the most interesting:
>It is not possible to block SIGKILL or SIGSTOP. Attempts to do so are silently ignored.
this one makes sense if you understand the reasoning behind it, but i have seen many questions on this in the past. definitely a topic worth discussing
>Each of the threads in a process has its own signal mask.
this is useful because it is powerful, but it is also really annoying in its complexity, lol
i guess honorable mention to the note about undefined behavior, as well

relevant resources:
man man

man syscalls

>>107889612
I really like the fact that you have two signals for termination, where one suggests and the other enforces. I think it's good api design to have an entity with authority/control over another to be able to choose to tell it to stop itself, or to stop the thing itself.
I don't like the fact that you have dozens of different signals all doing basically the same thing making it nigh impossible to handle comprehensively, but whatever.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you proprietary slave? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class at Harvard, and I’ve been involved in numerous free software projects, and I have contributed to over 300 core-utils for GNU. I am skilled in Lisp and I’m St. IGNU-cius, saint of the Church of Emacs. You are nothing to me but just another unethical non-free software advocate. I will distribute the fuck out of your source code with freedom the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit about me and the GPL on the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my colleagues at FSF and your binaries are being reversed engineered right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your copyright. You're fucking dead, kid. Free software can be anywhere, anytime, and it can ensure your freedom in over four ways, and that’s just with the GPLv2. Not only am I extensively skilled at hacking, but I have access to the source of the entire GNU userland and core-utils and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable proprietary code off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what ethical retribution your little “clever” program was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have ensured your users' freedom. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit free as in freedom all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

On consoles it's a great experience almost always out of the box.
On PC it's rare for it to just work great, often takes some tuning.

NTA but I also see slopware engineering replacing manual coding. In the future you won't have any APIs that intake files, XML or JSON, it will be all one single AI interface.
