Look under "Interrupted Primitives" in the glibc info pages.
Or look for SA_RESTART with respect to sigaction().

With glibc, (and uClibc unless there's a bug which needs fixing),
you should be able to just compile with _GNU_SOURCE or _BSD_SOURCE
defined to force bsd signal semantics (auto restart).
