[ntp:questions] signal_no_reset: signal 18 had flags 20000
I have STFI like crazy, but can't find an explanation for the error code signal_no_reset: signal 18 had flags 2 Could someone explain what this mean? Or even better, give me a hint where I can find info about all these error codes etc for ntp Regards, Fredrik ___ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions

That is a harmless overly-chatty diagnostic message that is no longer generated by the latest ntpd. signal_no_reset() is changing the signals which are enabled and generates the warning if the prior flags contain a bit the code didn't recognize. Newer ntpd recognizes and silently ignores the flag, I forget what the symbolic name is. Cheers, Dave Hart ___ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions

Or even better, give me a hint where I can find info about all these error codes etc for ntp It's not an error, it is information. In libntp/syssignal.c, there is a function called 'signal_no_reset', which we call in order to set up the flags we expect to see for a given signal. As I recall, we handle all of the cases we know about/expect. If, after handling all of the signal flags we know about, we discover there are *other* flags still set, we simpy announce those flags. You should be able to look at the documentation for your sigaction() system call and in somewhere like /usr/include/sys/signal.h and see what flag has the value 0x2.

Or even better, give me a hint where I can find info about all these error codes etc for ntp Most ntpd error/syslog messages come from a call to msyslog which has printf type arguments. If you have the sources handy, you can grep for part of the text from the error message. In this case, grep signal_no_reset: signal . -r gets one hit in ./libntp/syssignal.c Note that it helps to have the sources that correspond to the code you are running. You can get that either by tracking down the sources for the code you are running, or grabbing a known source and rebuilding and installing. http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Main/SoftwareDownloads -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.

Or even better, give me a hint where I can find info about all these error codes etc for ntp I'd start with the man page for signal. It looks like this message is leaving little to the imagination. You may also need to look at the relevant files in /usr/linclude/... On Linux, signal 18 is likely to be SIGCONT, which doesn't seem a particularly legitimate one for ntpd to be receiving, as you wouldn't normally run it in a way in which it could get stopped. If you are not doing something strange, this is likely to be a low level platform compatibility issue, for which you will need to be able to understand the source code. ___ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
