- * \brief IPC signals implementation.
- *
- * Signals are a low-level IPC primitive. A process receives a signal
- * when some external event has happened. Like interrupt requests,
- * signals do not carry any additional information. If processing a
- * specific event requires additional data, the process must obtain it
- * through some other mechanism.
- *
- * Despite the name, one shouldn't confuse these signals with POSIX
- * signals. POSIX signals are usually executed synchronously, like
- * software interrupts.
- *
- * In this implementation, each process has a limited set of signal
- * bits (usually 32) and can wait for multiple signals at the same
- * time using sig_wait(). Signals can also be polled using sig_check(),
- * but a process spinning on its signals usually defeats their purpose
- * of providing a multitasking-friendly infrastructure for event-driven
- * applications.
- *
- * Signals are like flags: they are either active or inactive. After an
- * external event has delivered a particular signal, it remains raised until
- * the process acknowledges it using either sig_wait() or sig_check().
- * Counting signals is not a reliable way to count how many times a
- * particular event has occurred, because the same signal may be
- * delivered twice before the process can notice.
- *
- * Any execution context, including an interrupt handler, can deliver
- * a signal to a process using sig_signal(). Multiple distinct signals
- * may be delivered at once with a single invocation of sig_signal(),
- * although this is rarely useful.
- *
- * There's no hardcoded mapping of specific events to signal bits.
- * The meaning of a particular signal bit is defined by an agreement
- * between the delivering entity and the receiving process.
- * For instance, a terminal driver may be written to deliver
- * a signal bit called SIG_INT when it reads the CTRL-C sequence
- * from the keyboard, and a process may react to it by quitting.
- *
- * The SIG_SINGLE bit is reserved for a special purpose (this is
- * more a suggestion than a constraint). When a process wants
- * wait for a single event on the fly, it needs not allocate a
- * free signal from its pool. Instead, SIG_SINGLE can be used
- *
- * The "event" module is a higher-level interface that can optionally
- * deliver signals to processes. Messages provide even higher-level
- * IPC services built on signals. Semaphore arbitration is also
- * implemented using signals.
- *
- * Signals are very low overhead. Using them exclusively to wait
- * for multiple asynchronous events results in very simple dispatch
- * logic with low processor and resource usage.
