Hello, Recently I came across the implementation of the restart_doit() signal handler (see also the source file /agent/mibgroup/util_funcs.c). IMHO it should be documented why this function works: all functions called by signal handlers must be async-signal safe. It is not clear to me whether all functions called directly or indirectly from the restart_doit() signal handler are async-signal safe. See also http://opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908775/xsh/sigaction.html for a list of the functions that are guaranteed to be async-signal safe.
