Arguments

 

sig

   The signal to be generated.
 

sigcode

   An optional signal code. For example, signal SIGFPE-the
   arithmetic trap signal-has 10 different codes, each representing
   a different type of arithmetic trap.

   The signal codes can be represented by mnemonics or numbers. The
   arithmetic trap codes are represented by the numbers 1 to 10, but
   the SIGILL codes are represented by the numbers 0 to 2. The code
   values are defined in the <signal.h> header file.
