2 This file declares a type and two functions and defines several
3 macros, for handling various signals (conditions that may be reported during
4 program execution).
5
6 For historical reasons; programs expect signal to be declared
7 in <sys/signal.h>. The signal function is documented in <sys/signal.h>.
8
9 The signal function is declared in the C Standard as:<BR>
10 void (*signal(int sig, void (*func)(int)))(int);
11
12 The EDK II implementation of the library or base firmware does not generate
13 any of these signals, except as a result of explicit calls to the raise function.

75 The raise function carries out the actions described for signal,
76 in <sys/signal.h>, for the signal sig. If a signal handler is called, the
77 raise function does not return until after the signal handler does.

79 @return The raise function returns zero if successful,
80 or nonzero if unsuccessful.
