Indeed, looks like GNU coreutils dd responds to SIGUSR1 on linux and SIGINFO on linux. That's good to know. What's the reason for this discrepancy?

- dankm 12y agoOSX inherited SIGINFO from the BSDs, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Dragonfly, and NetBSD all have it. Linux doesn't. I don't know why; but Google in the past has told me that patches to add it were rejected about 10 years ago.
