Re: updates?

FreeBSD used a similar method with us.
There is one queue for both realtime signals and standard signals.
For each real time signal, it is pushed back to the end of the queue.
Here is its code,  http://bxr.su/FreeBSD/sys/kern/kern_sig.c#351
I need to research how signals are consumed though.
