raise(3)							      raise(3)

NAME
       raise - Send a signal to the executing process or thread

SYNOPSIS
       #include <signal.h>

       int raise(
	       int signal );

LIBRARY
       Standard C Library (libc)

STANDARDS
       Interfaces  documented on this reference page conform to industry stan‐
       dards as follows:

       raise():	 XSH5.0

       Refer to the standards(5) reference page	 for  more  information	 about
       industry standards and associated tags.

PARAMETERS
       Specifies a signal number.

DESCRIPTION
       The raise() function sends the signal specified by the signal parameter
       to the invoking thread. In single-threaded programs this is  equivalent
       to:

       kill(getpid(), signal);

       The behavior of the raise() function is equivalent to:

       pthread_kill(pthread_self(), signal);

RETURN VALUES
       Upon successful completion of the raise() function, a value of 0 (zero)
       is returned. Otherwise, a nonzero value is returned and errno is set to
       indicate the error.

ERRORS
       The raise() function sets errno to the specified values for the follow‐
       ing conditions: The value of the signal parameter is an invalid	signal
       number.
