On some Unix-like platforms, SIGINFO is the signal sent to computer programs when a status request is received from the keyboard. The symbolic constant for SIGINFO is defined in the header file signal.h
. Symbolic signal names are used because signal numbers can vary across platforms.
On Linux, SIGINFO is a synonym for SIGPWR.
[edit] Etymology
SIG is a common prefix for signal names. INFO is an abbreviation for information request.
