.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm at_fork
|
|
|
|
|
facility allows a kernel module to ensure that it is notified
|
|
|
|
|
at any process fork.
|
|
|
|
|
The function
|
|
|
|
|
.Ar func
|
|
|
|
|
is called with the a pointer to the forking process's proc structure,
|
|
|
|
|
a pointer to the child's process structure and a flag word,
|
|
|
|
|
as used in
|
|
|
|
|
.Xr rfork 2
|
|
|
|
|
to indicate the type of fork.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
If the requirement for notification is removed, then the function
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm rm_at_fork
|
|
|
|
|
must be called with the exact
|
|
|
|
|
.Ar func
|
|
|
|
|
argument as the corresponding call to
|
|
|
|
|
.Fn at_fork .
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm at_fork
|
|
|
|
|
returns an errno, 0 meaning success.
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm rm_at_fork
|
|
|
|
|

|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
|
|
|
Since the fork queue is not sorted
|
|
|
|
|
and items are added to the head, order of execution
|
|
|
|
|
is reversed to that of insertion.
