16.Os
17.Sh NAME
18.Nm Psetsignal
19.Nd set signal tracing flags
20.Sh SYNOPSIS
21.Lb libproc
22.In libproc.h
23.Ft void
24.Fo Psetsignal
25.Fa "struct ps_prochandle *P"
26.Fa "const sigset_t *set"
27.Fc
28.Sh DESCRIPTION
29The
30.Fn Psetsignal
31function sets the signal tracing flags for the process handle
32.Fa P
33to
34.Fa set .
35The call to
36.Fn Psetsignal
37replaces any existing signal tracing flags entirely with
38.Fa set .
39The signal tracing flags determine which signals, when received by a
40thread in the process, will cause that thread to stop.
41For more information on the behavior of the signal tracing flags, including
42which signals may be traced this way, see the
43.Sy PCSTRACE
44section in
45.Xr proc 4 .
46.Pp
47The
48.Fa set
49argument may be manipulated with the standard signal set manipulation
50functions such as
51.Xr sigaddset 3C ,
52.Xr sigdelset 3C ,
53and others which may all be found in
54.Xr sigsetops 3C .
55.Pp
56Note, only active processes may have their signal tracing flags updated.
57Process handles that refer to core files, zombie processes, and files do
58not have fault tracing flags and this function is a no-op on them.
