// This file implements runtime support for signal handling.
//
// Most synchronization primitives are not available from
// the signal handler (it cannot block, allocate memory, or use locks)
// so the handler communicates with a processing goroutine
// via struct sig, below.
//
// sigsend() is called by the signal handler to queue a new signal.
// signal_recv() is called by the Go program to receive a newly queued signal.
// Synchronization between sigsend() and signal_recv() is based on the sig.state
// variable.  It can be in 3 states: 0, HASWAITER and HASSIGNAL.
// HASWAITER means that signal_recv() is blocked on sig.Note and there are no
// new pending signals.
// HASSIGNAL means that sig.mask *may* contain new pending signals,
// signal_recv() can't be blocked in this state.
// 0 means that there are no new pending signals and signal_recv() is not blocked.
// Transitions between states are done atomically with CAS.
// When signal_recv() is unblocked, it resets sig.Note and rechecks sig.mask.
// If several sigsend()'s and signal_recv() execute concurrently, it can lead to
// unnecessary rechecks of sig.mask, but must not lead to missed signals
// nor deadlocks.
