PROCESS_ACTIVATE_ Procedure
When PROCESS_ACTIVATE_ is called on an OSS process, the security rules that
apply are the same as those that apply when the OSS
kill() function is called.
See the
kill(2) function reference pages either online or in the Open System
Services System Calls Reference Manual for details.
Safeguard Considerations
For information on processes protected by Safeguard, refer to the Safeguard
Reference Manual.
OSS Considerations
When used on an OSS process, PROCESS_ACTIVATE_ has the same effect as
calling the OSS
kill() function with the input parameters as follows:
•
The signal parameter set to SIGCONT
•
The pid parameter set to the OSS process ID of the process identified by
process-handle in the PROCESS_ACTIVATE_ call.
The
SIGCONT signal is delivered to the target process.
