SignalMap is a map of Linux signals.

Functions

func CatchAll

func CatchAll(sigc chan os.Signal)

CatchAll catches all signals and relays them to the specified channel.

func DumpStacks

func DumpStacks()

DumpStacks dumps the runtime stack.

func ParseSignal

func ParseSignal(rawSignal string) (syscall.Signal, error)

ParseSignal translates a string to a valid syscall signal. It returns an error if the signal map doesn't include the given signal.

func StopCatch

func StopCatch(sigc chan os.Signal)

StopCatch stops catching the signals and closes the specified channel.

func Trap

func Trap(cleanup func())

Trap sets up a simplified signal "trap", appropriate for common behavior expected from a vanilla unix command-line tool in general (and the Docker engine in particular).

• If SIGINT or SIGTERM are received, `cleanup` is called, then the process is terminated.
• If SIGINT or SIGTERM are received 3 times before cleanup is complete, then cleanup is skipped and the process is terminated immediately (allows force quit of stuck daemon)
• A SIGQUIT always causes an exit without cleanup, with a goroutine dump preceding exit.

func ValidSignalForPlatform

func ValidSignalForPlatform(sig syscall.Signal) bool

ValidSignalForPlatform returns true if a signal is valid on the platform
