NAME
pause - suspend a process until a signal is received
sigsuspend - atomically changes the set of blocked signals and waits
for a signal
SYS$HIBER - Hibernate process
EXPLAINATION
The Digital UNIX pause system call provides functionality similar to
the OpenVMS SYS$HYBER system service. The pause system call blocks the
process until a signal is received. The sigsuspend system call atomi‐
cally sets the signal mask and blocks the process until a signal is
received. The sigpause system call just provides a compatibility
interface to sigsuspend.
