Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <spawn.h>

int posix_spawn(pid_t *restrict pid, const char *restrict path, const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *file_actions, const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp, char *const argv[restrict], char *const envp[restrict]); int posix_spawnp(pid_t *restrict pid, const char *restrict file, const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *file_actions, const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp, char *const argv[restrict], char *const envp[restrict]);


Описание (Description)

The posix_spawn() and posix_spawnp() functions shall create a new process (child process) from the specified process image. The new process image shall be constructed from a regular executable file called the new process image file.

When a C program is executed as the result of this call, it shall be entered as a C-language function call as follows:

int main(int argc, char *argv[]);

where argc is the argument count and argv is an array of character pointers to the arguments themselves. In addition, the following variable:

extern char **environ;

shall be initialized as a pointer to an array of character pointers to the environment strings.

The argument argv is an array of character pointers to null- terminated strings. The last member of this array shall be a null pointer and is not counted in argc. These strings constitute the argument list available to the new process image. The value in argv[0] should point to a filename string that is associated with the process image being started by the posix_spawn() or posix_spawnp() function.

The argument envp is an array of character pointers to null- terminated strings. These strings constitute the environment for the new process image. The environment array is terminated by a null pointer.

The number of bytes available for the combined argument and environment lists of the child process is {ARG_MAX}. The implementation shall specify in the system documentation (see the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1‐2017, Chapter 2, Conformance) whether any list overhead, such as length words, null terminators, pointers, or alignment bytes, is included in this total.

The path argument to posix_spawn() is a pathname that identifies the new process image file to execute.

The file parameter to posix_spawnp() shall be used to construct a pathname that identifies the new process image file. If the file parameter contains a <slash> character, the file parameter shall be used as the pathname for the new process image file. Otherwise, the path prefix for this file shall be obtained by a search of the directories passed as the environment variable PATH (see the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1‐2017, Chapter 8, Environment Variables). If this environment variable is not defined, the results of the search are implementation-defined.

If file_actions is a null pointer, then file descriptors open in the calling process shall remain open in the child process, except for those whose close-on-exec flag FD_CLOEXEC is set (see fcntl(3p)). For those file descriptors that remain open, the child process shall not inherit any file locks, but all remaining attributes of the corresponding open file descriptions (see fcntl(3p)), shall remain unchanged.

If file_actions is not NULL, then the file descriptors open in the child process shall be those open in the calling process as modified by the spawn file actions object pointed to by file_actions and the FD_CLOEXEC flag of each remaining open file descriptor after the spawn file actions have been processed. The effective order of processing the spawn file actions shall be:

1. The set of open file descriptors for the child process shall initially be the same set as is open for the calling process. The child process shall not inherit any file locks, but all remaining attributes of the corresponding open file descriptions (see fcntl(3p)), shall remain unchanged.

2. The signal mask, signal default actions, and the effective user and group IDs for the child process shall be changed as specified in the attributes object referenced by attrp.

3. The file actions specified by the spawn file actions object shall be performed in the order in which they were added to the spawn file actions object.

4. Any file descriptor that has its FD_CLOEXEC flag set (see fcntl(3p)) shall be closed.

If file descriptor 0, 1, or 2 would otherwise be closed in the new process image created by posix_spawn() or posix_spawnp(), implementations may open an unspecified file for the file descriptor in the new process image. If a standard utility or a conforming application is executed with file descriptor 0 not open for reading or with file descriptor 1 or 2 not open for writing, the environment in which the utility or application is executed shall be deemed non-conforming, and consequently the utility or application might not behave as described in this standard.

The posix_spawnattr_t spawn attributes object type is defined in <spawn.h>. It shall contain at least the attributes defined below.

If the POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP flag is set in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp, and the spawn-pgroup attribute of the same object is non-zero, then the child's process group shall be as specified in the spawn-pgroup attribute of the object referenced by attrp.

As a special case, if the POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP flag is set in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp, and the spawn-pgroup attribute of the same object is set to zero, then the child shall be in a new process group with a process group ID equal to its process ID.

If the POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP flag is not set in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp, the new child process shall inherit the parent's process group.

If the POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDPARAM flag is set in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp, but POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDULER is not set, the new process image shall initially have the scheduling policy of the calling process with the scheduling parameters specified in the spawn-schedparam attribute of the object referenced by attrp.

If the POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDULER flag is set in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp (regardless of the setting of the POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDPARAM flag), the new process image shall initially have the scheduling policy specified in the spawn-schedpolicy attribute of the object referenced by attrp and the scheduling parameters specified in the spawn-schedparam attribute of the same object.

The POSIX_SPAWN_RESETIDS flag in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp governs the effective user ID of the child process. If this flag is not set, the child process shall inherit the effective user ID of the parent process. If this flag is set, the effective user ID of the child process shall be reset to the parent's real user ID. In either case, if the set-user-ID mode bit of the new process image file is set, the effective user ID of the child process shall become that file's owner ID before the new process image begins execution.

The POSIX_SPAWN_RESETIDS flag in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp also governs the effective group ID of the child process. If this flag is not set, the child process shall inherit the effective group ID of the parent process. If this flag is set, the effective group ID of the child process shall be reset to the parent's real group ID. In either case, if the set-group-ID mode bit of the new process image file is set, the effective group ID of the child process shall become that file's group ID before the new process image begins execution.

If the POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGMASK flag is set in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp, the child process shall initially have the signal mask specified in the spawn- sigmask attribute of the object referenced by attrp.

If the POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGDEF flag is set in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp, the signals specified in the spawn-sigdefault attribute of the same object shall be set to their default actions in the child process. Signals set to the default action in the parent process shall be set to the default action in the child process.

Signals set to be caught by the calling process shall be set to the default action in the child process.

Except for SIGCHLD, signals set to be ignored by the calling process image shall be set to be ignored by the child process, unless otherwise specified by the POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGDEF flag being set in the spawn-flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp and the signals being indicated in the spawn-sigdefault attribute of the object referenced by attrp.

If the SIGCHLD signal is set to be ignored by the calling process, it is unspecified whether the SIGCHLD signal is set to be ignored or to the default action in the child process, unless otherwise specified by the POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGDEF flag being set in the spawn_flags attribute of the object referenced by attrp and the SIGCHLD signal being indicated in the spawn_sigdefault attribute of the object referenced by attrp.

If the value of the attrp pointer is NULL, then the default values are used.

All process attributes, other than those influenced by the attributes set in the object referenced by attrp as specified above or by the file descriptor manipulations specified in file_actions, shall appear in the new process image as though fork() had been called to create a child process and then a member of the exec family of functions had been called by the child process to execute the new process image.

It is implementation-defined whether the fork handlers are run when posix_spawn() or posix_spawnp() is called.
