   wait.3p    ( 3 )

подождите, пока дочерний процесс остановится или завершится (wait for a child process to stop or terminate)

Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

If wait() or waitpid() returns because the status of a child
       process is available, these functions shall return a value equal
       to the process ID of the child process for which status is
       reported. If wait() or waitpid() returns due to the delivery of a
       signal to the calling process, -1 shall be returned and errno set
       to [EINTR].  If waitpid() was invoked with WNOHANG set in
       options, it has at least one child process specified by pid for
       which status is not available, and status is not available for
       any process specified by pid, 0 is returned. Otherwise, -1 shall
       be returned, and errno set to indicate the error.
