09:49 < telmich> is it possible, that if I fork() and call _exit(0) in the child, that the
|
|
_exit(0) is executed earlier than the fork() call returns in the parent?
|
|
09:49 < telmich> I'm having some race condition in cinit, where the pid is not yet updated in
|
|
the service structure, and the child exited before and thus cinit does not
|
|
update the service
|
|
09:49 < telmich> as being run
|
|
09:51 < telmich> rexy_: currently I'm thinking about implementing a lock before starting the
|
|
fork()
|
|
09:51 < telmich> rexy_: thus cinit will react differently, if the starting function is still
|
|
running
|
|
09:51 < telmich> rexy_: but I'm somehow confused, that fork() allows such race condition
