.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm posix_spawnattr_init ,
|
|

|
|
.Sh LIBRARY

|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In spawn.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnattr_init "posix_spawnattr_t * attr"
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnattr_destroy "posix_spawnattr_t * attr"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnattr_init
|
|
function initializes a spawn attributes object
|
|
.Fa attr
|
|
with the default value for all of the individual attributes used by the
|
|
implementation.
|
|
Initializing an already initialized spawn attributes object may cause
|
|
memory to be leaked.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnattr_destroy
|
|
function destroys a spawn attributes object.
|
|
A destroyed
|
|
.Fa attr
|
|
attributes object can be reinitialized using
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnattr_init .
|
|
The object should not be used after it has been destroyed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A spawn attributes object is of type
|
|
.Vt posix_spawnattr_t
|
|
(defined in
|
|
.In spawn.h )
|
|
and is used to specify the inheritance of process attributes across a
|
|
spawn operation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The resulting spawn attributes object (possibly modified by setting
|
|
individual attribute values), is used to modify the behavior of
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn
|
|
or
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnp .
|
|
After a spawn attributes object has been used to spawn a process by a
|
|
call to a
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn
|
|
or
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnp ,
|
|
any function affecting the attributes object (including destruction)
|
|
will not affect any process that has been spawned in this way.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion,
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnattr_init
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnattr_destroy
|
|
return zero;
|
|
otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnattr_init
|
|
function will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOMEM
|
|
Insufficient memory exists to initialize the spawn file actions object.
