BTW, SIGKILL and SIGSTOP can be issued by an O_ASYNC file I/O also (look in 
fcntl(2) at F_SETSIG section). If you use F_SETSIG for sending SIGKILL or 
SIGSTOP, there's nothing to be done with that - that behaviour is well 

Looking in that man page I see:
       F_GETSIG and F_SETSIG are Linux-specific.
