.Sh NAME
.Nm sigreturn
.Nd return from signal
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <signal.h>
.Bd -literal
struct sigcontext {
	int sc_onstack;
	int sc_mask;
	int sc_sp;
	int sc_fp;
	int sc_ap;
	int sc_pc;
	int sc_ps;
};

.Fn sigreturn "struct sigcontext *scp"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Fn Sigreturn
allows users to atomically unmask, switch stacks,
and return from a signal context.
The processes signal mask and stack status are
restored from the context.
The system call does not return;
the users stack pointer, frame pointer, argument pointer,
and processor status longword are restored from the context.
Execution resumes at the specified pc.
This system call is used by the trampoline code and
.Xr longjmp 3
when returning from a signal to the previously executing program.
.Sh NOTES
This system call is not available in 4.2
.Tn BSD
hence it should not be used if backward compatibility is needed.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
If successful, the system call does not return.
Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned and 
.Va errno
is set to indicate the error.
.Sh ERRORS
.Fn Sigreturn
will fail and the process context will remain unchanged
if one of the following occurs.
.Bl -tag -width [EINVAL]
.It Bq Er EFAULT
.Fa Scp
points to memory that is not a valid part of the process
address space.
.It Bq Er EINVAL
The process status longword is invalid or would improperly
raise the privilege level of the process.

function call appeared in
