-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.BR siginterrupt ()
-function changes the restart behavior when
-a system call is interrupted by the signal \fIsig\fP.
-If the \fIflag\fP
-argument is false (0), then system calls will be restarted if interrupted
-by the specified signal \fIsig\fP.
-This is the default behavior in Linux.
-.P
-If the \fIflag\fP argument is true (1) and no data has been transferred,
-then a system call interrupted by the signal \fIsig\fP will return \-1
-and \fIerrno\fP will be set to
-.BR EINTR .
-.P
-If the \fIflag\fP argument is true (1) and data transfer has started,
-then the system call will be interrupted and will return the actual
-amount of data transferred.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-The
-.BR siginterrupt ()
-function returns 0 on success.
-It returns \-1 if the
-signal number
-.I sig
-is invalid, with
-.I errno
-set to indicate the error.
-.SH ERRORS
-.TP
-.B EINVAL
-The specified signal number is invalid.
