linked list to store the callbak routines. The patch converts the lists to queue(3) TAILQs, making the code slightly clearer and ensuring that callbacks are executed in FIFO order. Man page also updated as necesary. (discontinued use of M_TEMP malloc type while here anyway /phk) Submitted by: Jake Burkholder jake@checker.org PR: 14912

|
a pointer to the child's process structure and a flag word,

|
as used in

|
|
to indicate the type of fork.
