Can processes really "generate" signals or they just request the kernel to send the signal on their behalf?
And what about hardware interrupts? Do they get translated to software interrupts? Like, can the CPU interrupt a process directly? or through the kernel?
No need for that, I just wanted to have a clear picture in my head of how signals get delivered before I "listen" to any abstractions by other textbooks/materials. Thanks! – WikiWitz – 2013-01-11T22:07:33.027
