-=head1 NAME
-
-POSIX - Perl interface to IEEE Std 1003.1
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- use POSIX;
- use POSIX qw(setsid);
- use POSIX qw(:errno_h :fcntl_h);
-
- printf "EINTR is %d\n", EINTR;
-
- $sess_id = POSIX::setsid();
-
- $fd = POSIX::open($path, O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_WRONLY, 0644);
- # note: that's a filedescriptor, *NOT* a filehandle
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-The POSIX module permits you to access all (or nearly all) the standard
-POSIX 1003.1 identifiers. Many of these identifiers have been given Perl-ish
-interfaces.
-
-I<Everything is exported by default> with the exception of any POSIX
-functions with the same name as a built-in Perl function, such as
-C<abs>, C<alarm>, C<rmdir>, C<write>, etc.., which will be exported
-only if you ask for them explicitly. This is an unfortunate backwards
-compatibility feature. You can stop the exporting by saying C<use
-POSIX ()> and then use the fully qualified names (ie. C<POSIX::SEEK_END>).
-
-This document gives a condensed list of the features available in the POSIX
-module. Consult your operating system's manpages for general information on
-most features. Consult L<perlfunc> for functions which are noted as being
-identical to Perl's builtin functions.
-
-The first section describes POSIX functions from the 1003.1 specification.
-The second section describes some classes for signal objects, TTY objects,
-and other miscellaneous objects. The remaining sections list various
-constants and macros in an organization which roughly follows IEEE Std
-1003.1b-1993.
-
-=head1 NOTE
-
-The POSIX module is probably the most complex Perl module supplied with
-the standard distribution. It incorporates autoloading, namespace games,
-and dynamic loading of code that's in Perl, C, or both. It's a great
-source of wisdom.
-
-=head1 CAVEATS
-
-A few functions are not implemented because they are C specific. If you
-attempt to call these, they will print a message telling you that they
-aren't implemented, and suggest using the Perl equivalent should one
-exist. For example, trying to access the setjmp() call will elicit the
-message "setjmp() is C-specific: use eval {} instead".
-
-Furthermore, some evil vendors will claim 1003.1 compliance, but in fact
-are not so: they will not pass the PCTS (POSIX Compliance Test Suites).
-For example, one vendor may not define EDEADLK, or the semantics of the
-errno values set by open(2) might not be quite right. Perl does not
-attempt to verify POSIX compliance. That means you can currently
-successfully say "use POSIX", and then later in your program you find
-that your vendor has been lax and there's no usable ICANON macro after
-all. This could be construed to be a bug.
-
-=head1 FUNCTIONS
-
-=over 8
-
-=item _exit
-
-This is identical to the C function C<_exit()>. It exits the program
-immediately which means among other things buffered I/O is B<not> flushed.
-
-Note that when using threads and in Linux this is B<not> a good way to
-exit a thread because in Linux processes and threads are kind of the
-same thing (Note: while this is the situation in early 2003 there are
-projects under way to have threads with more POSIXly semantics in Linux).
-If you want not to return from a thread, detach the thread.
-
-=item abort
-
-This is identical to the C function C<abort()>. It terminates the
-process with a C<SIGABRT> signal unless caught by a signal handler or
-if the handler does not return normally (it e.g. does a C<longjmp>).
-
-=item abs
-
-This is identical to Perl's builtin C<abs()> function, returning
-the absolute value of its numerical argument.
-
-=item access
-
-Determines the accessibility of a file.
-
- if( POSIX::access( "/", &POSIX::R_OK ) ){
- print "have read permission\n";
- }
-
-Returns C<undef> on failure. Note: do not use C<access()> for
-security purposes. Between the C<access()> call and the operation
-you are preparing for the permissions might change: a classic
-I<race condition>.
-
-=item acos
-
-This is identical to the C function C<acos()>, returning
-the arcus cosine of its numerical argument. See also L<Math::Trig>.
-
-=item alarm

-This is identical to Perl's builtin C<alarm()> function,
-either for arming or disarming the C<SIGARLM> timer.

-
-This is identical to the C function C<asctime()>. It returns
-a string of the form
-
- "Fri Jun 2 18:22:13 2000\n\0"

-and it is called thusly
-
- $asctime = asctime($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year,
- $wday, $yday, $isdst);
-
-The C<$mon> is zero-based: January equals C<0>. The C<$year> is
-1900-based: 2001 equals C<101>. C<$wday> and C<$yday> default to zero
-(and are usually ignored anyway), and C<$isdst> defaults to -1.
-
-=item asin
-
-This is identical to the C function C<asin()>, returning
-the arcus sine of its numerical argument. See also L<Math::Trig>.
-
-=item assert
-
-Unimplemented, but you can use L<perlfunc/die> and the L<Carp> module
-to achieve similar things.

-This is identical to the C function C<atan()>, returning the
-arcus tangent of its numerical argument. See also L<Math::Trig>.

-the arcus tangent defined by its two numerical arguments, the I<y>
-coordinate and the I<x> coordinate. See also L<Math::Trig>.

-
-If you use the SA_SIGINFO flag, the signal handler will in addition to
-the first argument, the signal name, also receive a second argument, a
-hash reference, inside which are the following keys with the following
-semantics, as defined by POSIX/SUSv3:
-
- signo the signal number
- errno the error number
- code if this is zero or less, the signal was sent by
- a user process and the uid and pid make sense,
- otherwise the signal was sent by the kernel
-
-The following are also defined by POSIX/SUSv3, but unfortunately
-not very widely implemented:
-
- pid the process id generating the signal
- uid the uid of the process id generating the signal
- status exit value or signal for SIGCHLD
- band band event for SIGPOLL
-
-A third argument is also passed to the handler, which contains a copy
-of the raw binary contents of the siginfo structure: if a system has
-some non-POSIX fields, this third argument is where to unpack() them
-from.
-
-Note that not all siginfo values make sense simultaneously (some are
-valid only for certain signals, for example), and not all values make
-sense from Perl perspective, you should to consult your system's
-C<sigaction> and possibly also C<siginfo> documentation.

-
-Synopsis:
-
- strftime(fmt, sec, min, hour, mday, mon, year, wday = -1, yday = -1, isdst = -1)
-
-The month (C<mon>), weekday (C<wday>), and yearday (C<yday>) begin at zero.
-I.e. January is 0, not 1; Sunday is 0, not 1; January 1st is 0, not 1. The
-year (C<year>) is given in years since 1900. I.e., the year 1995 is 95; the
-year 2001 is 101. Consult your system's C<strftime()> manpage for details
-about these and the other arguments.
-
-If you want your code to be portable, your format (C<fmt>) argument
-should use only the conversion specifiers defined by the ANSI C
-standard (C89, to play safe). These are C<aAbBcdHIjmMpSUwWxXyYZ%>.
-But even then, the B<results> of some of the conversion specifiers are
-non-portable. For example, the specifiers C<aAbBcpZ> change according
-to the locale settings of the user, and both how to set locales (the
-locale names) and what output to expect are non-standard.
-The specifier C<c> changes according to the timezone settings of the
-user and the timezone computation rules of the operating system.
-The C<Z> specifier is notoriously unportable since the names of
-timezones are non-standard. Sticking to the numeric specifiers is the
-safest route.
-
-The given arguments are made consistent as though by calling
-C<mktime()> before calling your system's C<strftime()> function,
-except that the C<isdst> value is not affected.
-
-The string for Tuesday, December 12, 1995.

-
-strrchr() is C-specific, see L<perlfunc/rindex> instead.
-
-=item strspn
-
-strspn() is C-specific, use regular expressions instead,
-see L<perlre>.
-
-=item strstr
-
-This is identical to Perl's builtin C<index()> function,
-see L<perlfunc/index>.
-
-=item strtod
-
-String to double translation. Returns the parsed number and the number
-of characters in the unparsed portion of the string. Truly
-POSIX-compliant systems set $! ($ERRNO) to indicate a translation
-error, so clear $! before calling strtod. However, non-POSIX systems
-may not check for overflow, and therefore will never set $!.
-
-strtod should respect any POSIX I<setlocale()> settings.
-
-To parse a string $str as a floating point number use
-
- $! = 0;
- ($num, $n_unparsed) = POSIX::strtod($str);
-
-The second returned item and $! can be used to check for valid input:
-
- if (($str eq '') || ($n_unparsed != 0) || $!) {
- die "Non-numeric input $str" . ($! ? ": $!\n" : "\n");
- }
-
-When called in a scalar context strtod returns the parsed number.
-
-=item strtok
-
-strtok() is C-specific, use regular expressions instead, see
-L<perlre>, or L<perlfunc/split>.
-
-=item strtol
-
-String to (long) integer translation. Returns the parsed number and
-the number of characters in the unparsed portion of the string. Truly
-POSIX-compliant systems set $! ($ERRNO) to indicate a translation
-error, so clear $! before calling strtol. However, non-POSIX systems
-may not check for overflow, and therefore will never set $!.
-
-strtol should respect any POSIX I<setlocale()> settings.
-
-To parse a string $str as a number in some base $base use
-
- $! = 0;
- ($num, $n_unparsed) = POSIX::strtol($str, $base);
-
-The base should be zero or between 2 and 36, inclusive. When the base
-is zero or omitted strtol will use the string itself to determine the
-base: a leading "0x" or "0X" means hexadecimal; a leading "0" means
-octal; any other leading characters mean decimal. Thus, "1234" is
-parsed as a decimal number, "01234" as an octal number, and "0x1234"
-as a hexadecimal number.
-
-The second returned item and $! can be used to check for valid input:
-
- if (($str eq '') || ($n_unparsed != 0) || !$!) {
- die "Non-numeric input $str" . $! ? ": $!\n" : "\n";
- }
-
-When called in a scalar context strtol returns the parsed number.
-
-=item strtoul
-
-String to unsigned (long) integer translation. strtoul() is identical
-to strtol() except that strtoul() only parses unsigned integers. See
-L</strtol> for details.
-
-Note: Some vendors supply strtod() and strtol() but not strtoul().
-Other vendors that do supply strtoul() parse "-1" as a valid value.
-

-
-Creates a new C<POSIX::SigAction> object which corresponds to the C
-C<struct sigaction>. This object will be destroyed automatically when
-it is no longer needed. The first parameter is the handler, a sub
-reference. The second parameter is a C<POSIX::SigSet> object, it
-defaults to the empty set. The third parameter contains the
-C<sa_flags>, it defaults to 0.
-
- $sigset = POSIX::SigSet->new(SIGINT, SIGQUIT);

-
-=item safe
-
-accessor function for the "safe signals" flag of a SigAction object; see
-L<perlipc> for general information on safe (a.k.a. "deferred") signals. If
-you wish to handle a signal safely, use this accessor to set the "safe" flag
-in the C<POSIX::SigAction> object:
-
- $sigaction->safe(1);
-
-You may also examine the "safe" flag on the output action object which is
-filled in when given as the third parameter to C<POSIX::sigaction()>:
-
- sigaction(SIGINT, $new_action, $old_action);
- if ($old_action->safe) {
- # previous SIGINT handler used safe signals

-
-=head2 POSIX::SigRt
-
-=over 8
-
-=item %SIGRT
-
-A hash of the POSIX realtime signal handlers. It is an extension of
-the standard %SIG, the $POSIX::SIGRT{SIGRTMIN} is roughly equivalent
-to $SIG{SIGRTMIN}, but the right POSIX moves (see below) are made with
-the POSIX::SigSet and POSIX::sigaction instead of accessing the %SIG.
-
-You can set the %POSIX::SIGRT elements to set the POSIX realtime
-signal handlers, use C<delete> and C<exists> on the elements, and use
-C<scalar> on the C<%POSIX::SIGRT> to find out how many POSIX realtime
-signals there are available (SIGRTMAX - SIGRTMIN + 1, the SIGRTMAX is
-a valid POSIX realtime signal).
-
-Setting the %SIGRT elements is equivalent to calling this:
-
- sub new {
- my ($rtsig, $handler, $flags) = @_;
- my $sigset = POSIX::SigSet($rtsig);
- my $sigact = POSIX::SigAction->new($handler, $sigset, $flags);
- sigaction($rtsig, $sigact);
- }
-
-The flags default to zero, if you want something different you can
-either use C<local> on $POSIX::SigRt::SIGACTION_FLAGS, or you can
-derive from POSIX::SigRt and define your own C<new()> (the tied hash
-STORE method of the %SIGRT calls C<new($rtsig, $handler, $SIGACTION_FLAGS)>,
-where the $rtsig ranges from zero to SIGRTMAX - SIGRTMIN + 1).
-
-Just as with any signal, you can use sigaction($rtsig, undef, $oa) to
-retrieve the installed signal handler (or, rather, the signal action).
-
-B<NOTE:> whether POSIX realtime signals really work in your system, or
-whether Perl has been compiled so that it works with them, is outside
-of this discussion.

+=head1 NAME
+
+POSIX - Perl interface to IEEE Std 1003.1
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ use POSIX;
+ use POSIX qw(setsid);
+ use POSIX qw(:errno_h :fcntl_h);
+
+ printf "EINTR is %d\n", EINTR;
+
+ $sess_id = POSIX::setsid();
+
+ $fd = POSIX::open($path, O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_WRONLY, 0644);
+ # note: that's a filedescriptor, *NOT* a filehandle
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The POSIX module permits you to access all (or nearly all) the standard
+POSIX 1003.1 identifiers. Many of these identifiers have been given Perl-ish
+interfaces.
+
+I<Everything is exported by default> with the exception of any POSIX
+functions with the same name as a built-in Perl function, such as
+C<abs>, C<alarm>, C<rmdir>, C<write>, etc.., which will be exported
+only if you ask for them explicitly. This is an unfortunate backwards
+compatibility feature. You can stop the exporting by saying C<use
+POSIX ()> and then use the fully qualified names (ie. C<POSIX::SEEK_END>).
+
+This document gives a condensed list of the features available in the POSIX
+module. Consult your operating system's manpages for general information on
+most features. Consult L<perlfunc> for functions which are noted as being
+identical to Perl's builtin functions.
+
+The first section describes POSIX functions from the 1003.1 specification.
+The second section describes some classes for signal objects, TTY objects,
+and other miscellaneous objects. The remaining sections list various
+constants and macros in an organization which roughly follows IEEE Std
+1003.1b-1993.
+
+=head1 NOTE
+
+The POSIX module is probably the most complex Perl module supplied with
+the standard distribution. It incorporates autoloading, namespace games,
+and dynamic loading of code that's in Perl, C, or both. It's a great
+source of wisdom.
+
+=head1 CAVEATS
+
+A few functions are not implemented because they are C specific. If you
+attempt to call these, they will print a message telling you that they
+aren't implemented, and suggest using the Perl equivalent should one
+exist. For example, trying to access the setjmp() call will elicit the
+message "setjmp() is C-specific: use eval {} instead".
+
+Furthermore, some evil vendors will claim 1003.1 compliance, but in fact
+are not so: they will not pass the PCTS (POSIX Compliance Test Suites).
+For example, one vendor may not define EDEADLK, or the semantics of the
+errno values set by open(2) might not be quite right. Perl does not
+attempt to verify POSIX compliance. That means you can currently
+successfully say "use POSIX", and then later in your program you find
+that your vendor has been lax and there's no usable ICANON macro after
+all. This could be construed to be a bug.
+
+=head1 FUNCTIONS
+
+=over 8
+
+=item _exit
+
+This is identical to the C function C<_exit()>. It exits the program
+immediately which means among other things buffered I/O is B<not> flushed.
+
+Note that when using threads and in Linux this is B<not> a good way to
+exit a thread because in Linux processes and threads are kind of the
+same thing (Note: while this is the situation in early 2003 there are
+projects under way to have threads with more POSIXly semantics in Linux).
+If you want not to return from a thread, detach the thread.
+
+=item abort
+
+This is identical to the C function C<abort()>. It terminates the
+process with a C<SIGABRT> signal unless caught by a signal handler or
+if the handler does not return normally (it e.g. does a C<longjmp>).
+
+=item abs
+
+This is identical to Perl's builtin C<abs()> function, returning
+the absolute value of its numerical argument.
+
+=item access
+
+Determines the accessibility of a file.
+
+ if( POSIX::access( "/", &POSIX::R_OK ) ){
+ print "have read permission\n";
+ }
+
+Returns C<undef> on failure. Note: do not use C<access()> for
+security purposes. Between the C<access()> call and the operation
+you are preparing for the permissions might change: a classic
+I<race condition>.
+
+=item acos
+
+This is identical to the C function C<acos()>, returning
+the arcus cosine of its numerical argument. See also L<Math::Trig>.
+
+=item alarm
+
+This is identical to Perl's builtin C<alarm()> function,
+either for arming or disarming the C<SIGARLM> timer.
+
+=item asctime
+
+This is identical to the C function C<asctime()>. It returns
+a string of the form
+
+ "Fri Jun 2 18:22:13 2000\n\0"
+
+and it is called thusly
+
+ $asctime = asctime($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year,
+ $wday, $yday, $isdst);
+
+The C<$mon> is zero-based: January equals C<0>. The C<$year> is
+1900-based: 2001 equals C<101>. C<$wday> and C<$yday> default to zero
+(and are usually ignored anyway), and C<$isdst> defaults to -1.
+
+=item asin
+
+This is identical to the C function C<asin()>, returning
+the arcus sine of its numerical argument. See also L<Math::Trig>.
+
+=item assert
+
+Unimplemented, but you can use L<perlfunc/die> and the L<Carp> module
+to achieve similar things.
+
+=item atan
+
+This is identical to the C function C<atan()>, returning the
+arcus tangent of its numerical argument. See also L<Math::Trig>.
+
+=item atan2
+
+This is identical to Perl's builtin C<atan2()> function, returning
+the arcus tangent defined by its two numerical arguments, the I<y>
+coordinate and the I<x> coordinate. See also L<Math::Trig>.
+
+=item atexit
+
+atexit() is C-specific: use C<END {}> instead, see L<perlsub>.
+
+=item atof
+
+atof() is C-specific. Perl converts strings to numbers transparently.

+
+=item atoi
+
+atoi() is C-specific. Perl converts strings to numbers transparently.
+If you need to force a scalar to a number, add a zero to it.
+If you need to have just the integer part, see L<perlfunc/int>.

+=item atol
+
+atol() is C-specific. Perl converts strings to numbers transparently.
+If you need to force a scalar to a number, add a zero to it.
+If you need to have just the integer part, see L<perlfunc/int>.

+
+bsearch() not supplied. For doing binary search on wordlists,
+see L<Search::Dict>.
+
+=item calloc
+
+calloc() is C-specific. Perl does memory management transparently.
+
+=item ceil
+
+This is identical to the C function C<ceil()>, returning the smallest
+integer value greater than or equal to the given numerical argument.

+the first argument, the signal name, also receive a second argument, a
+hash reference, inside which are the following keys with the following
+semantics, as defined by POSIX/SUSv3:
+
+ signo the signal number
+ errno the error number
+ code if this is zero or less, the signal was sent by
+ a user process and the uid and pid make sense,
+ otherwise the signal was sent by the kernel
+
+The following are also defined by POSIX/SUSv3, but unfortunately
+not very widely implemented:
+
+ pid the process id generating the signal
+ uid the uid of the process id generating the signal
+ status exit value or signal for SIGCHLD
+ band band event for SIGPOLL
+
+A third argument is also passed to the handler, which contains a copy
+of the raw binary contents of the siginfo structure: if a system has
+some non-POSIX fields, this third argument is where to unpack() them
+from.
+
+Note that not all siginfo values make sense simultaneously (some are
+valid only for certain signals, for example), and not all values make
+sense from Perl perspective, you should to consult your system's
+C<sigaction> and possibly also C<siginfo> documentation.

+Convert date and time information to string. Returns the string.
+
+Synopsis:
+
+ strftime(fmt, sec, min, hour, mday, mon, year, wday = -1, yday = -1, isdst = -1)
+
+The month (C<mon>), weekday (C<wday>), and yearday (C<yday>) begin at zero.
+I.e. January is 0, not 1; Sunday is 0, not 1; January 1st is 0, not 1. The
+year (C<year>) is given in years since 1900. I.e., the year 1995 is 95; the
+year 2001 is 101. Consult your system's C<strftime()> manpage for details
+about these and the other arguments.
+
+If you want your code to be portable, your format (C<fmt>) argument
+should use only the conversion specifiers defined by the ANSI C
+standard (C89, to play safe). These are C<aAbBcdHIjmMpSUwWxXyYZ%>.
+But even then, the B<results> of some of the conversion specifiers are
+non-portable. For example, the specifiers C<aAbBcpZ> change according
+to the locale settings of the user, and both how to set locales (the
+locale names) and what output to expect are non-standard.
+The specifier C<c> changes according to the timezone settings of the
+user and the timezone computation rules of the operating system.
+The C<Z> specifier is notoriously unportable since the names of
+timezones are non-standard. Sticking to the numeric specifiers is the
+safest route.
+
+The given arguments are made consistent as though by calling
+C<mktime()> before calling your system's C<strftime()> function,
+except that the C<isdst> value is not affected.

+=item strtod
+
+String to double translation. Returns the parsed number and the number
+of characters in the unparsed portion of the string. Truly
+POSIX-compliant systems set $! ($ERRNO) to indicate a translation
+error, so clear $! before calling strtod. However, non-POSIX systems
+may not check for overflow, and therefore will never set $!.
+
+strtod should respect any POSIX I<setlocale()> settings.
+
+To parse a string $str as a floating point number use
+
+ $! = 0;
+ ($num, $n_unparsed) = POSIX::strtod($str);
+
+The second returned item and $! can be used to check for valid input:
+
+ if (($str eq '') || ($n_unparsed != 0) || $!) {
+ die "Non-numeric input $str" . ($! ? ": $!\n" : "\n");
+ }
+
+When called in a scalar context strtod returns the parsed number.

+
+strtok() is C-specific, use regular expressions instead, see
+L<perlre>, or L<perlfunc/split>.
+
+=item strtol
+
+String to (long) integer translation. Returns the parsed number and
+the number of characters in the unparsed portion of the string. Truly
+POSIX-compliant systems set $! ($ERRNO) to indicate a translation
+error, so clear $! before calling strtol. However, non-POSIX systems
+may not check for overflow, and therefore will never set $!.
+
+strtol should respect any POSIX I<setlocale()> settings.
+
+To parse a string $str as a number in some base $base use
+
+ $! = 0;
+ ($num, $n_unparsed) = POSIX::strtol($str, $base);
+
+The base should be zero or between 2 and 36, inclusive. When the base
+is zero or omitted strtol will use the string itself to determine the
+base: a leading "0x" or "0X" means hexadecimal; a leading "0" means
+octal; any other leading characters mean decimal. Thus, "1234" is
+parsed as a decimal number, "01234" as an octal number, and "0x1234"
+as a hexadecimal number.
+
+The second returned item and $! can be used to check for valid input:
+
+ if (($str eq '') || ($n_unparsed != 0) || !$!) {
+ die "Non-numeric input $str" . $! ? ": $!\n" : "\n";
+ }
+
+When called in a scalar context strtol returns the parsed number.
+
+=item strtoul
+
+String to unsigned (long) integer translation. strtoul() is identical
+to strtol() except that strtoul() only parses unsigned integers. See
+L</strtol> for details.
+
+Note: Some vendors supply strtod() and strtol() but not strtoul().
+Other vendors that do supply strtoul() parse "-1" as a valid value.
+
+=item strxfrm
+
+String transformation. Returns the transformed string.
+
+ $dst = POSIX::strxfrm( $src );
+
+Used in conjunction with the C<strcoll()> function, see L</strcoll>.

+The times() function returns elapsed realtime since some point in the past
+(such as system startup), user and system times for this process, and user
+and system times used by child processes. All times are returned in clock

+
+ ($realtime, $user, $system, $cuser, $csystem) = POSIX::times();
+

+=item tmpnam
+
+Returns a name for a temporary file.

+
+For security reasons, which are probably detailed in your system's

+Get name of current operating system.
+
+ ($sysname, $nodename, $release, $version, $machine) = POSIX::uname();
+
+Note that the actual meanings of the various fields are not
+that well standardized, do not expect any great portability.
+The C<$sysname> might be the name of the operating system,
+the C<$nodename> might be the name of the host, the C<$release>
+might be the (major) release number of the operating system,

+ print "status = ", ($? / 256), "\n";
+
+=item wcstombs
+
+This is identical to the C function C<wcstombs()>.
+Perl does not have any support for the wide and multibyte

+accessor function for the "safe signals" flag of a SigAction object; see

+=head2 POSIX::SigRt
+
+=over 8
+
+=item %SIGRT
+
+A hash of the POSIX realtime signal handlers. It is an extension of
+the standard %SIG, the $POSIX::SIGRT{SIGRTMIN} is roughly equivalent
+to $SIG{SIGRTMIN}, but the right POSIX moves (see below) are made with
+the POSIX::SigSet and POSIX::sigaction instead of accessing the %SIG.
+
+You can set the %POSIX::SIGRT elements to set the POSIX realtime
+signal handlers, use C<delete> and C<exists> on the elements, and use
+C<scalar> on the C<%POSIX::SIGRT> to find out how many POSIX realtime
+signals there are available (SIGRTMAX - SIGRTMIN + 1, the SIGRTMAX is
+a valid POSIX realtime signal).
+
+Setting the %SIGRT elements is equivalent to calling this:
+
+ sub new {
+ my ($rtsig, $handler, $flags) = @_;
+ my $sigset = POSIX::SigSet($rtsig);
+ my $sigact = POSIX::SigAction->new($handler, $sigset, $flags);
+ sigaction($rtsig, $sigact);
+ }
+
+The flags default to zero, if you want something different you can
+either use C<local> on $POSIX::SigRt::SIGACTION_FLAGS, or you can
+derive from POSIX::SigRt and define your own C<new()> (the tied hash
+STORE method of the %SIGRT calls C<new($rtsig, $handler, $SIGACTION_FLAGS)>,
+where the $rtsig ranges from zero to SIGRTMAX - SIGRTMIN + 1).
+
+Just as with any signal, you can use sigaction($rtsig, undef, $oa) to
+retrieve the installed signal handler (or, rather, the signal action).
+
+B<NOTE:> whether POSIX realtime signals really work in your system, or
+whether Perl has been compiled so that it works with them, is outside
+of this discussion.
