SIGSTKFLT
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Description: | Stack fault on coprocessor (unused) |
---|---|
Default action: | Abnormal termination of the process |
SA_SIGINFO macros | |
None |
On some Unix-like platforms, SIGSTKFLT is the signal sent to computer programs when the coprocessor experiences a stack fault. The symbolic constant for SIGSTKFLT is defined in the header file signal.h
. Symbolic signal names are used because signal numbers can vary across platforms.
[edit] Etymology
SIG is a common prefix for signal names. STKFLT is an abbreviation for stack fault.
[edit] Usage
SIGSTKFLT does not appear to be used in any modern Unix-like systems.
