sys_rt_sigreturn [kernel/signal.c]
This system call is used by the kernel to implement "realtime" signal handlers. It should never be called directly. When the Linux kernel creates the stack frame for a signal handler, a call to sys_sigreturn is inserted into the stack frame so that the signal handler will call sys_sigreturn upon return. This inserted call to sys_sigreturn cleans up the stack so that the process can restart from where it was interrupted by the signal. Arguments
eax | 173
ebx | *to be documented*
Return values This system call never returns. Remarks n/a Compatibility n/a
