| bugprone-bad-signal-to-kill-thread |
| ================================== |
| |
| Finds ``pthread_kill`` function calls when a thread is terminated by |
| raising ``SIGTERM`` signal and the signal kills the entire process, not |
| just the individual thread. Use any signal except ``SIGTERM``. |
| |
| .. code-block: c++ |
| |
| pthread_kill(thread, SIGTERM); |
| |
| This check corresponds to the CERT C Coding Standard rule |
| `POS44-C. Do not use signals to terminate threads |
| <https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/display/c/POS44-C.+Do+not+use+signals+to+terminate+threads>`_. |
