    A signal is an asynchronous notification sent to a process or to a specific thread within the same process to notify it of an event. Common uses of signals are to interrupt, suspend, terminate or kill a process. Signals originated in 1970s Bell Labs Unix and were later specified in the POSIX standard.

  3. Class variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_variable

    In the above Python code, it does not provide much information as there is only class variable in the Dog class that provide the vertebrate group of dog as mammals. In instance variable, you could customize your own object (in this case, dog_1) by having one or more instance variables in the Dog class.

  4. Thread safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_safety

    Thread safe, MT-safe: Use a mutex for every single resource to guarantee the thread to be free of race conditions when those resources are accessed by multiple threads simultaneously. Thread safety guarantees usually also include design steps to prevent or limit the risk of different forms of deadlocks , as well as optimizations to maximize ...

  5. Type introspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_introspection

    Two classes are created, A and B, the former is being a superclass of the latter, then one instance of each class is checked. The last expression gives true because A is a superclass of the class of b. Further, you can directly ask for the class of any object, and "compare" them (code below assumes having executed the code above):

    PHP provides a file-based locking [17] as well as a Mutex class in the pthreads extension. [18] Python provides a low-level mutex mechanism with a Lock class from the threading module. [19] The ISO/IEC Fortran standard (ISO/IEC 1539-1:2010) provides the lock_type derived type in the intrinsic module iso_fortran_env and the lock/unlock ...

  8. Interrupt priority level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrupt_priority_level

    The interrupt priority level (IPL) is a part of the current system interrupt state, which indicates the interrupt requests that will currently be accepted. The IPL may be indicated in hardware by the registers in a programmable interrupt controller, or in software by a bitmask or integer value and source code of threads.
