.Fd #include <signal.h>
.Fn sigemptyset "sigset_t *set"
.Fn sigfillset "sigset_t *set"
.Fn sigaddset "sigset_t *set" "int signo"
.Fn sigdelset "sigset_t *set" "int signo"
.Fn sigismember "sigset_t *set" "int signo"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
These functions manipulate signal sets stored in a
.Fa sigset_t .
Either
.Fn sigemptyset
or
.Fn sigfillset
must be called for every object of type
.Fa sigset_t

.Fn sigaddset
function adds the specified signal
.Fa signo
to the signal set.
.Pp
The
.Fn sigdelset
function deletes the specified signal
.Fa signo
from the signal set.
