1. Installing a Signal Handler

#include <csignal>

void signal_handler(int signal) {
  // Handle the signal
}

int main() {
  signal(SIGINT, signal_handler);  // Handle Ctrl+C (SIGINT)
  // ...
}

2. Raising a Signal

#include <csignal>

int main() {
  raise(SIGTERM);  // Send the SIGTERM signal to the current process
}

3. Blocking a Signal

#include <csignal>

int main() {
  sigset_t mask;  // Signal mask
  sigemptyset(&mask);
  sigaddset(&mask, SIGINT);  // Block Ctrl+C (SIGINT)
  sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, &mask, nullptr);
  // ...
}

4. Unblocking a Signal

#include <csignal>

int main() {
  sigset_t mask;  // Signal mask

  sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, &mask, nullptr);  // Unblock Ctrl+C
}

5. Waiting for a Signal

  memset(&sa, 0, sizeof(sa));
  sa.sa_sigaction = signal_handler;
  sa.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO | SA_RESTART;
