+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm Psetsignal
+.Nd set signal tracing flags
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Lb libproc
+.In libproc.h
+.Ft void
+.Fo Psetsignal
+.Fa "struct ps_prochandle *P"
+.Fa "const sigset_t *set"
+.Fc
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn Psetsignal
+function sets the signal tracing flags for the process handle
+.Fa P
+to
+.Fa set .
+The call to
+.Fn Psetsignal
+replaces any existing signal tracing flags entirely with
+.Fa set .
+The signal tracing flags determine which signals, when received by a
+thread in the process, will cause that thread to stop. For more
+information on the behavior of the signal tracing flags, including which
+signals may be traced this way, see the
+.Sy PCSTRACE
+section in
+.Xr proc 4 .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fa set
+argument may be manipulated with the standard signal set manipulation
+functions such as
+.Xr sigaddset 3C ,
+.Xr sigdelset 3C ,
+and others which may all be found in
+.Xr sigsetops 3C .
+.Pp
+Note, only active processes may have their signal tracing flags updated.
+Process handles that refer to core files, zombie processes, and files do
+not have fault tracing flags and this function is a no-op on them.
