Signals not working right on LFS 2.4.4 system

[dknie@…]

The SIGTERM signal is not being sent correctly or might not even work on my install. A friend used the following code to test SIGTERM's existence... #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <signal.h>

static void sig_term(int signo);

int main(int argc, char argv) {

if(signal(SIGTERM,sig_term)==SIG_ERR)

fprintf(stderr,"Can't catch SIGTERM\n");

printf("Kill me with a SIGTERM. Go ahead I dare you! PID = %d\n",

(int)getpid());

pause(); return 0;

}

static void sig_term(int signo) {

if(signal(SIGTERM,sig_term)==SIG_ERR)

fprintf(stderr,"Can't catch SIGTERM\n");

printf("SIGTERM? Is that all you got?\n"); pause();

}

Everytime this app gets a SIGTERM is should respond with SIGTERM? Is that all you got? but, for some reason, it only displays that line with the first SIGTERM. I am not sure if this is an error with glibc, the kernel, or configuration. The system was built right off of the LFS 2.4.4 book. Kernel is 2.4.4, and glibc is 2.1.3

Someone posted a fixed program which sorted this for the reporter. I'm therefore closing the bug. If the issue continues, the reporter can re-open it.
