System: NetBSD netbsd9.bruno.haible.de 9.0 NetBSD 9.0 (GENERIC) #0: Fri Feb 14 00:06:28 UTC 2020 mkrepro@mkrepro.NetBSD.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC amd64
Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
When a program that is not linked with libpthread uses the pthread_sigmask
function, its return value can be wrong.
See https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/pthread_sigmask.html
section "RETURN VALUE".
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile this program
==================== foo.c ================
#include <errno.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main ()
{
sigset_t set;
int ret;
sigemptyset (&set);
sigaddset (&set, SIGINT);
ret = sigprocmask (1729, &set, NULL);
if (ret == 0)
printf ("sigprocmask succeeded!\n");
else
printf ("sigprocmask -> %d, errno=%d\n", ret, errno);
ret = pthread_sigmask (1729, &set, NULL);
if (ret == 0)
printf ("pthread_sigmask succeeded!\n");
else
printf ("pthread_sigmask -> %d\n", ret);
return 0;
}
=============================================
$ gcc -Wall foo.c
$ ./a.out
Expected output:
sigprocmask -> -1, errno=22
pthread_sigmask -> 22
Actual output:
sigprocmask -> -1, errno=22
pthread_sigmask -> -1
