父进程如何验证子进程发送的信号

问题

当父进程调用sigsuspend时，为什么不验证发送的信号是SYNC_SIG？

Answer 1

该代码假定程序运行时不会发生其他信号，因此无需检查它是否收到了正确的信号。这意味着如果出现任何其他信号，程序可能会失败。

添加

有多种方法可以检查是否发送了正确的信号。您可以让处理程序设置一些 sig_atomic_t 全局变量，并在 sigsuspend 返回后检查其设置（如果没有返回，则循环重复 sigsuspend 调用）。或者您可以设置传递给 sigsuspend 的掩码来阻止除 SYNC_SIG 之外的所有内容。如果其他进程向您的进程发送虚假的 SIGUSR1，那么这两种方法都不会起作用，但只有当有人故意试图破坏您的程序时才会发生这种情况。
