Designing safe signal handlers in Linux is critical because signals can interrupt your program at any moment. Keep handlers simple, set a flag or write to a pipe, then return. Use only async-signal-safe functions, and always install handlers with sigaction for full control. Let the main program handle the heavy work; the handler should only trigger the response. Smart signal handling = stable, responsive Linux programs. #linux #software #system #programming #computerscience
