<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_event_add_signal()</function> adds a new UNIX process signal event source to an event
loop. The event loop object is specified in the <parameter>event</parameter> parameter, and the event
source object is returned in the <parameter>source</parameter> parameter. The
<parameter>signal</parameter> parameter specifies the numeric signal to be handled (see <citerefentry
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>signal</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>).</para>
<para>The <parameter>handler</parameter> parameter is a function to call when the signal is received or
<constant>NULL</constant>. The handler function will be passed the <parameter>userdata</parameter>
pointer, which may be chosen freely by the caller. The handler also receives a pointer to a
<structname>signalfd_siginfo</structname> structure containing information about the received signal. See
<citerefentry
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>signalfd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry> for
further information. The handler may return negative to signal an error (see below), other return values
are ignored. If <parameter>handler</parameter> is <constant>NULL</constant>, a default handler that calls
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_exit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> will be
used.</para>
<para>Only a single handler may be installed for a specific signal. The signal must be blocked in all
threads before this function is called (using <citerefentry
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>sigprocmask</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry> or
<citerefentry
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>pthread_sigmask</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>). For
convenience, if the special flag <constant>SD_EVENT_SIGNAL_PROCMASK</constant> is ORed into the specified
signal the signal will be automatically masked as necessary, for the calling thread. Note that this only
works reliably if the signal is already masked in all other threads of the process, or if there are no
other threads at the moment of invocation.</para>
<para>By default, the event source is enabled permanently (<constant>SD_EVENT_ON</constant>), but this
may be changed with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
If the handler function returns a negative error code, it will either be disabled after the invocation,
even if the <constant>SD_EVENT_ON</constant> mode was requested before, or it will cause the loop to
terminate, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_exit_on_failure</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
</para>
<para>To destroy an event source object use
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_unref</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
but note that the event source is only removed from the event loop
when all references to the event source are dropped. To make sure
an event source does not fire anymore, even if it is still referenced,
disable the event source using
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
with <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant>.</para>
<para>If the second parameter of
<function>sd_event_add_signal()</function> is
<constant>NULL</constant> no reference to the event source object
is returned. In this case the event source is considered
"floating", and will be destroyed implicitly when the event loop
itself is destroyed.</para>
<para>If the <parameter>handler</parameter> parameter to <function>sd_event_add_signal()</function> is
<constant>NULL</constant>, and the event source fires, this will be considered a request to exit the
event loop. In this case, the <parameter>userdata</parameter> parameter, cast to an integer, is passed as
the exit code parameter to
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_exit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_source_get_signal()</function> returns
the configured signal number of an event source created previously
with <function>sd_event_add_signal()</function>. It takes the
event source object as the <parameter>source</parameter>
parameter.</para>

<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, these functions return 0 or a positive
integer. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error
code.</para>
