Summary of Changes

Hello @etiaro, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

I've addressed a critical bug in the signal handling mechanism where the sigaction function was inadvertently unmasking other signals due to an incorrect argument order in the signalMask function calls. This fix ensures that signal masking behaves as expected, preventing unintended signal delivery and improving the robustness of the system's signal management.

Highlights

  • Fixing signal() function's signal mask: I have corrected the argument order for the signalMask function call within the signal() function. Previously, the newmask and oldmask parameters were inverted, leading to incorrect signal unmasking.
  • Fixing sigaction() function's signal mask: I have also corrected the argument order for the signalMask function call within the sigaction() function, addressing the same issue of inverted newmask and oldmask parameters.

Code Review

This pull request fixes a critical bug in signal() and sigaction() where changing a signal handler would temporarily unmask all other signals, potentially leading to race conditions. The fix correctly adjusts the call to signalMask to only mask the specific signal being handled, rather than replacing the entire signal mask. My review includes suggestions to improve code portability and clarity by replacing a magic number with a more type-safe equivalent.
