From 940bd3eff922c46ac280136e3674ee70ea40f08e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefano Brivio Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2023 19:32:13 +0200 Subject: passt: Fix error check for signal(), improve error messages Valtteri reports that if SIGPIPE already has a disposition set by the parent process, such as systemd with the default setting of IgnoreSIGPIPE=yes, signal() will return the previous value, not zero, and this is not an error: check for SIG_ERR instead. While at it, split messages for failures of sigaction() and signal(), and report the actual error.
