I have posted this question in comp.unix.wizards, but none of the wizards replied. So I try here: In the process of debugging a perl program, I used "trace" and noticed that "trace" repeatedly showed calls to "sigcleanup" (which occasionally looped). Searching for "sigcleanup" in perl and C libraries (and manual pages as well) did not give any explanation of "sigcleanup", except that: 1) entry #139 in /usr/include/sys/syscall.h is unused. 2) "strings /usr/bin/trace" shows sigcleanup as placed between "utimes" and "adjtime" (#138 and #140 respectively). What is "sigcleanup" doing? We use sun3, SunOS 4.0.3, perl 3.44. --------------------- Kaja P.
