Standard signals: rm unnecessary bold - see MOS:NOBOLD
Change catch_function() to be reentrant. Signal handlers are required to be reetrant functions and cannot call non-reetrant functions such as puts().
Line 54:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
 
volatile sig_atomic_t status = 0;
 
static void catch_function(int signo) {
status = signo;
puts("Interactive attention signal caught.");
}
 
Line 66 ⟶ 68:
}
puts("Raising the interactive attention signal.");
if (raise(SIGINT) != 0) {
fputs("Error raising the signal.\n", stderr);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
if (status == SIGINT) puts("Interactive attention signal caught.");
puts("Exiting.");
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
