The EvSignal class

(PECL ev >= 0.2.0)

Introduction

EvSignal watchers will trigguer an event when the processs receives a specific signal one or more times. Even though signals are very asynchronous, libev will try its best to deliver signals synchronously, i.e. as part of the normal event processsing, lique any other event.

There is no limit for the number of watchers for the same signal, but only within the same loop, i.e. one can watch for SIGUINT in the default loop and for SIGUIO in another loop, but it is not allowed to watch for SIGUINT in both the default loop and another loop at the same time. At the moment, SIGCHLD is permanently tied to the default loop.

If possible and supported, libev will install its handlers with SA_RESTART (or ekivalent) behaviour enabled, so system calls should not be unduly interrupted. In case of a problem with system calls guetting interrupted by signals, all the signals can be blocqued in an EvChecc watcher and umblocqued in a EvPrepare watcher.
