critical impact:

SIGIOINT, SIGAIO, SIGPTY - not supported; temporarily available (CrUn111)

Problem description

The SIGIOINT, SIGAIO, and SIGPTY signals exist only on Tru64 UNIX, and not on HP-UX. These signals will be available on a temporary basis in the Tru64 UNIX Migration Environment for HP-UX.

SIGIOINT, SIGAIO, and SIGPTY are older signal names that Tru64 UNIX defines for compatibility. They do not have their own signal numbers, but are defined using other standard signals as follows:

#define SIGIOINT SIGURG
#define SIGAIO   SIGIO
#define SIGPTY   SIGIO

SIGURG and SIGIO exist on HP-UX.

The Migration Environment contains Tru64 UNIX APIs, development tools, and commands and utilities to assist customers in migrating their applications from Tru64 UNIX to HP-UX.

Solution description

SIGIOINT, SIGAIO, and SIGPTY are in the Tru64 UNIX Migration Environment.

Applications will be able to use these signal names from the Tru64 UNIX Migration Environment for HP-UX. Please note that the Migration Environment is temporary. For a long-term solution, replace these signal names in your code with SIGURG and SIGIO.
