719060e911 Document that pidfile_open() now sets the FD_CLOEXEC flag on the open 
file descriptor, and that errors can be returned as a result of the
fcntl(2) system call.

pidfile.

e8cc80c0a0 In pidfile_open(), if the pidfile is locked, but empty (PID is not stored yet) 
and the caller requested other process' PID by passing non-NULL pidptr
argument, we will wait at most 100ms for the PID to show up in the file and if
it won't, we will store -1 in *pidptr.

From now on, pidfile_open() function never sets errno to EAGAIN on failure.

cb7cd07a07 pidfile(3) uses flopen(3) - don't make any assumptions about how the 
latter is implemented.

fefc6803cf When pidfile is already locked and has zero length, do not return 
success and zero pid from pidfile_read(). Return EAGAIN instead. Sleep
up to three times for 5 ms while waiting for pidfile to be written.

mount(8) does the kill(mountpid, SIGHUP). If mountd pidfile is truncated,
that would result in the SIGHUP delivered to the mount' process group
instead of the mountd.

560c4fc142 - Add a note that passing NULL to pidfile_write(), pidfile_remove() and 
pidfile_close() functions is safe. This possibility is used in example code.
- Cast pid_t to int.

8b28aef238 Pidfiles should be created with permission preventing users from opening 
them for reading. When user can open file for reading, he can also
flock(2) it, which can lead to confusions.
