SIGSETMASK(2)                                                    SIGSETMASK(2)


NAME
       sigsetmask - set current signal mask

SYNOPSIS
       #include <signal.h>

       sigsetmask(mask);
       int mask;

       mask = sigmask(signum)

DESCRIPTION
       Sigsetmask sets the current signal mask (those signals that are blocked
       from delivery).  Signals are blocked if the corresponding bit  in  mask
       is a 1; the macro sigmask is provided to construct the mask for a given
       signum.

       The system  quietly  disallows  SIGKILL,  SIGSTOP,  or  SIGCONT  to  be
       blocked.

RETURN VALUE
       The previous set of masked signals is returned.
