-.SH DESCRIPTION
-Don't use these functions under Linux.
-Due to a historical mistake, under Linux these functions are
-aliases for
-.BR raise (3)
-and
-.BR signal (2),
-respectively.
-.PP
-Elsewhere, on System V-like systems, these functions implement
-software signaling, entirely independent of the classical
-.BR signal (2)
-and
-.BR kill (2)
-functions.
-The function
-.BR ssignal ()
-defines the action to take when the software signal with
-number
-.I signum
-is raised using the function
-.BR gsignal (),
-and returns the previous such action or
-.BR SIG_DFL .
-The function
-.BR gsignal ()
-does the following: if no action (or the action
-.BR SIG_DFL )
-was
-specified for
-.IR signum ,
-then it does nothing and returns 0.
-If the action
-.B SIG_IGN
-was specified for
-.IR signum ,
-then it does nothing and returns 1.
-Otherwise, it resets the action to
-.B SIG_DFL
-and calls
-the action function with argument
-.IR signum ,
-and returns the value returned by that function.
-The range of possible values
-.I signum
-varies (often 1\[en]15 or 1\[en]17).
