Hi,
I see that SIGCHLD which was sent before calling sigaction() for
SIGCHLD is delivered to the handler when program is linked to
libpthread.so. However, this behavior doesn't occur when program
isn't linked to libpthread.so.
I feel the behavior of SIGCHLD when linked to libpthread.so
is strange, but I don't know whether the behavior is correct
or not.
Can anyone tell me what happened?
Best Regards,
Jun Kawai
