Package: cm

The "cm" Package

These routines are meant to provide a generic and simple to use child process management facility.

Library: karma
Link With: -lkarma

Functions

cm_manage	Register a function to manage a child process.
cm_unmanage	Terminate the management of a child process for state changes.
cm_poll	Poll for child process state changes.
cm_poll_silent	Poll for child process state changes.

Prototype Functions

cm_PROTO_stop_func	This routine is called when a child process is stopped.
cm_PROTO_term_func	This routine is called when a child process is killed.
cm_PROTO_exit_func	This routine is called when a child process exits.

Functions

flag cm_manage ( int pid, void (*stop_func) (), void (*term_func) (), void (*exit_func) () )

This routine will manage a child process for state changes by registering callback routines.

Parameters:

pid : The child process ID to manage.
stop_func : This routine is called when the child is stopped (by a SIGTTIN, SIGTTOU, SIGTSTP, or SIGSTOP signal). If this is NULL, no callback routine is installed. The prototype function is cm_PROTO_stop_func
term_func : This routine is called when the child terminates due to a signal. If this is NULL, no callback routine is installed. The prototype function is cm_PROTO_term_func.
exit_func : This routine is called when the child exits due to a call to _exit. If this is NULL, no callback routine is installed. The prototype function is cm_PROTO_exit_func.

Returns: TRUE on success, else FALSE.
Multithreading Level: Unsafe
Note:

If a child process is killed or exits, its callback routines are automatically removed. The term_func or exit_func MUST NOT unmanage the child process.

void cm_unmanage (int pid)

Terminate the management of a child process for state changes.

Parameters:

pid : The ID of the child process to unmanage.

Returns: Nothing.
Multithreading Level: Unsafe

void cm_poll (flag block)

This routine will poll for any change in status of child processes. If the operating system does not support forking, the routine displays an error message. Those processes which have been registered using cm_manage will have any callback routines called. If a child has not been registered using cm_manage then the routine will print a warning message stating that the child was not managed.

Parameters:

block : If TRUE, the routine will poll forever until a child changes status or a signal is caught.

Returns: Nothing.
Multithreading Level: Unsafe
Note:

If the process has no children, the routine will ALWAYS return immediately.

void cm_poll_silent (flag block)

This routine will poll for any change in status of child processes. If the operating system does not support forking, the routine does not display an error message (unlike cm_poll. Those processes which have been registered using cm_manage will have any callback routines called. If a child has not been registered using cm_manage then the routine will print a warning message stating that the child was not managed.

Parameters:

block : If TRUE, the routine will poll forever until a child changes status or a signal is caught.

Returns: Nothing.
Multithreading Level: Unsafe
Note:

If the process has no children, the routine will ALWAYS return immediately.

Prototype Functions

void cm_PROTO_stop_func (int pid, int sig)

This routine is called when a child process is stopped.

Parameters:

pid : The process ID.
sig : The signal which stopped the process.

Returns: Nothing.
Multithreading Level: Unsafe

void cm_PROTO_term_func (int pid, int sig, struct rusage *rusage)

This routine is called when a child process is killed.

Parameters:

pid : The process ID.
sig : The signal which killed the process.
rusage : The resource usage information. If this is NULL, the platform does not support this.

Returns: Nothing.
Multithreading Level: Unsafe

void cm_PROTO_exit_func (int pid, int value, struct rusage *rusage)

This routine is called when a child process exits.

Parameters:

pid : The process ID.
value : The value passed to _exit.
rusage : The resource usage information. If this is NULL, the platform does not support this.

Returns: Nothing.
Multithreading Level: Unsafe
