What can signal handlers do? (CWG 1441)

by Hans Boehm

Excerpt:

This is an attempt to summarize the current state of discussions around CWG issue 1441. Much of this discussion has occurred within SG1, and it has moved significantly past the original issue, so it seemed appropriate to turn it into a separate paper. This attempts to reflect the contributions of many people, especially Lawrence Crowl, Jens Maurer, Clark Nelson, and Detlef Vollmann.

This version is a minor revision of N3633. It reflects some changes due to SG1 concerns in Chicago, and reflects the easiest-to-address comments from the CWG discussion in Chicago. It does not reflect all of the latter. More discussion and almost certainly another paper revision is required.
