Special Signals
The signal SIGSTOP, SIGTSTP, SIGTTIN, SIGTTOU, and SIGCONT must be treated speical. They all eect the process and must be handled in the kernel. All threads must be stopped on any of the stop signals. After a SIGCONT all pending stop signals must be discarded (and vice versa).

If all threads have the signal blocked and the action is not to ignore the signal, it remains pending. If the signal is blocked the implementation is free to act on this whenever it wants: 2.4.1 Signal Generation and Delivery [...] If the action associated with a blocked signal is to ignore the signal and if that signal is generated for the process, it is unspecied whether the signal is discarded immediately upon generation or remains pending.
