From 1b0bf9b7616a5d8b624ccb1670c7b71fa0850209 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeremy Hylton Date: Tue, 23 Apr 2002 20:31:01 +0000 Subject: Ignore SIGXFSZ. The SIGXFSZ signal is sent when the maximum file size limit is exceeded (RLIMIT_FSIZE). Apparently, it is also sent when the 2GB file limit is reached on platforms without large file support. The default action for SIGXFSZ is to terminate the process and dump core. When it is ignored, the system call that caused the limit to be exceeded returns an error and sets errno to EFBIG. Python always checks errno on I/O syscalls, so there is nothing to do with the signal. --- Python/pythonrun.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/Python/pythonrun.c b/Python/pythonrun.c index 0ca1f42..324bc89 100644 --- a/Python/pythonrun.c +++ b/Python/pythonrun.c @@ -1357,6 +1357,9 @@ initsigs(void) #ifdef SIGXFZ signal(SIGXFZ, SIG_IGN); #endif +#ifdef SIGXFSZ + signal(SIGXFSZ, SIG_IGN); +#endif #endif /* HAVE_SIGNAL_H */ PyOS_InitInterrupts(); /* May imply initsignal() */ } -- cgit v0.12
