spt_readvx(2) OSS System Calls Reference Manual
STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
This function is an extension to the UNIX 98 specification. Interfaces documented on this refer-
ence page conform to IEEE Std 1003.1c-1995, POSIX System Application Program Interface,
with these exceptions:
• The use of the header file spthread.h is an HP exception to the POSIX standard.
• When a signal arrives during a call to the spt_readvx() function, instead of returning an
EINTR error to the application, the spt_readvx() retries the I/O operation, except in this
case: If the fork() function is called by a signal handler that is running on a thread per-
forming an spt_readvx() call, the spt_readvx() call in the child process returns an
EINTR error to the application.
