MISRA C:2012 Rule 21.5
The standard header file <signal.h> shall not be used
Description
Rule Definition
The standard header file <signal.h> shall not be used.
Rationale
Using signal handling functions can cause implementation-defined and undefined behavior.
Polyspace Implementation
If the signal function is a macro and the macro is expanded in the code, this rule is violated. It is assumed that rule 21.2 is not violated.
Additional Message in Report
The macro '<name> shall not be used.
Identifier XX should not be used.
Troubleshooting
If you expect a rule violation but do not see it, refer to Diagnose Why Coding Standard Violations Do Not Appear as Expected.
