- * Do a wait system call.  If job control is compiled in, we accept
- * stopped processes.  If block is zero, we return a value of zero
- * rather than blocking.
+ * Do a wait system call.  If block is zero, we return -1 rather than
+ * blocking.  If block is DOWAIT_WAITCMD, we return 0 when a signal
+ * other than SIGCHLD interrupted the wait.
  *
- * System V doesn't have a non-blocking wait system call.  It does
- * have a SIGCLD signal that is sent to a process when one of it's
- * children dies.  The obvious way to use SIGCLD would be to install
- * a handler for SIGCLD which simply bumped a counter when a SIGCLD
- * was received, and have waitproc bump another counter when it got
- * the status of a process.  Waitproc would then know that a wait
- * system call would not block if the two counters were different.
- * This approach doesn't work because if a process has children that
- * have not been waited for, System V will send it a SIGCLD when it
- * installs a signal handler for SIGCLD.  What this means is that when
- * a child exits, the shell will be sent SIGCLD signals continuously
- * until is runs out of stack space, unless it does a wait call before
- * restoring the signal handler.  The code below takes advantage of
- * this (mis)feature by installing a signal handler for SIGCLD and
- * then checking to see whether it was called.  If there are any
- * children to be waited for, it will be.
+ * We use sigsuspend in conjunction with a non-blocking wait3 in
+ * order to ensure that waitcmd exits promptly upon the reception
+ * of a signal.
  *
- * If neither SYSV nor BSD is defined, we don't implement nonblocking
- * waits at all.  In this case, the user will not be informed when
- * a background process until the next time she runs a real program
- * (as opposed to running a builtin command or just typing return),
- * and the jobs command may give out of date information.
+ * For code paths other than waitcmd we either use a blocking wait3
+ * or a non-blocking wait3.  For the latter case the caller of dowait
+ * must ensure that it is called over and over again until all dead
+ * children have been reaped.  Otherwise zombies may linger.
