Signaling

|
Signaling -- sending control signals that start and stop a transmission or other operation -- is not much different on Linux as compared with other Unix platforms except that the signal numbers might differ or some of the signals, such as SIGEMT, are not available on some distributions (such as RHEL AS 3). (For more details on differences in signaling between Solaris and Linux, see the reference in the Resources section.)
