When is SIGCHLD is raised.
Hi,
I have 2 processes X and Y. Y is exec() from X. In Y i have an exit handler, which is called when i return from main. With in exit handler i delete and object which in turn calls the destructor of the object, which terminates all the threads of Y.
I believe that SIGCHLD is raised by Y as soon as it returns from main().
Or is it done else where.

Hello everybody, this is my first post on this forum. I have a program that has a child process that sleeps for 5 second and exit. I'm suppose to modify this program so that when the child exits, the parent reports the exit status of the child, so I also have to deal with SIGINT and SIGQUIT. Can... (1 Reply)

Hi,
I have an c++ application which uses the function fork and execvp().
The parent does not wait until the child ends. The parents just creates children and let them do their stuff.
You can see the parent program as a batch-manager.
I have added a SIGCHLD handler to the program:

Hello,
I'd like to know whether it is possible to let the parent know who kills its child process. The case is likely as below:
if there are four processes, we call them A, B, C and D. B is the child of A, and can be killed by both C and D. if B is killed, then A will receive SIGCHLD from B.... (7 Replies)

Hi. I have a program whose job it is to manage 15 child processes. Sometimes these children die (sometimes deliberately other times with a SEGV).

semanage_iface_iterate
semanage_iterate(3) Libsemanage API documentation semanage_iterate(3)
NAME
semanage_iterate - SELinux Management API
SYNOPSIS
The following iterate function is supported for any semanage record.
Replace the function and object name as necessary.
extern int ITERATE_FUNCTION (
semanage_handle_t *handle,
int (*handler) (
const semanage_OBJECT_t *object,
void *varg),
void *handler_arg);
DESCRIPTION
Behavior:
The iterate function will execute the specified handler over all objects in the selected location. An arbitrary argument can be
passed into the handler function along with each object.
The object passed in is property of the libsemanage library, and may not be modified or preserved - use semanage_OBJECT_clone if
that is necessary.
The handler code may not invoke any semanage write requests for the same object type (i.e. modifying the underlying store is not
allowed). The iterate function is reentrant only while inside a transaction (see semanage_begin_transaction ). It is not safe to
execute other semanage read or write requests within iterate if not inside a transaction. The handler may return -1 to signal error
exit, 0 to signal continue, and 1 to signal successful exit early (the iterate function will stop accordingly).
Parameters:
The handle is used to track persistent state across semanage calls, and for error reporting. The handler is the function to execute,
with handler_arg as its second parameter, and each object as its first parameter.
Requirements:
This function requires an semanage connection to be established (see semanage_connect(3) )
RETURN VALUE
In case of failure, -1 is returned, and the semanage error callback is invoked, describing the error. Otherwise a non-negative integer is
returned (a commit number). The same number will be returned by all other semanage object read calls until the next commit.
