- /* It is often useful to do some cleanup action when a usually fatal signal
- terminates the process, like removing a temporary file or killing a
- subprocess that may be stuck waiting for a device, pipe or network input.
- Such signals are SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGPIPE, SIGTERM, and possibly others.
- The limitation of this facility is that it cannot work for SIGKILL.
- Signals with a SIG_IGN handler are considered to be non-fatal. The
- functions in this file assume that when a SIG_IGN handler is installed
- for a signal, it was installed before any functions in this file were
- called and it stays so for the whole lifetime of the process. */
- /* Register a cleanup function to be executed when a catchable fatal signal
- occurs.
- Restrictions for the cleanup function:
- - The cleanup function can do all kinds of system calls. It may also
- modify (clobber) errno.
- - It can also access application dependent memory locations and data
- structures provided they are in a consistent state. One way to ensure
- this is through block_fatal_signals()/unblock_fatal_signals(), see
- below. Another - more tricky - way to ensure this is the careful use
- of 'volatile'.
- However,
- - malloc() and similarly complex facilities are not safe to be called
- because they are not guaranteed to be in a consistent state.
- - Also, the cleanup function must not block the catchable fatal signals
- and leave them blocked upon return.
- The cleanup function is executed asynchronously. It is unspecified
- whether during its execution the catchable fatal signals are blocked
- or not. */

- functions create the temporary file or directory _before_ returning its
- name to the application. */
