Description
Documentation
In the signal page hosted on the python docs, signal.SIGSTOP is not marked as Unix-only, unlike other signals that Windows lacks.
The signal functionality on Windows is much more limited than on Unix-like systems, famously only defining a few signals. Therefore, many signals are available on Unix only, which is reflected in the typeshed stubs and the documentation.
For example, in the .rst source:
.. data:: SIGPROF
Profiling timer expired.
.. availability:: Unix.
.. data:: SIGQUIT
Terminal quit signal.
.. availability:: Unix.However, this is missing under SIGSTOP:
.. data:: SIGSTOP
Stop executing (cannot be caught or ignored).
.. data:: SIGSTKFLT
Stack fault on coprocessor. The Linux kernel does not raise this signal: it
can only be raised in user space.A pull request will be opened to fix this, if appropriate.
