Subject: [PATCH 6/6] clone4: Introduce new CLONE_FD flag to get task exit
notification via fd
When passed CLONE_FD, clone4 will return a file descriptor rather than a
PID. When the child process exits, it gets automatically reaped, and
the file descriptor becomes readable, producing a structure containing
the exit code and user/system time. The file descriptor also works in
epoll, poll, or select.
This allows libraries to safely launch and manage child processes on
behalf of a caller, without taking over or interfering with process-wide
signal handling. Without this, such a library would need to take over
or cooperate with the entire process's SIGCHLD handling, either via a
signal handler or a signalfd.
CLONE_FD will never return a file descriptor in the 0-2 range; thus, a 0
return from clone4 still indicates the child process.
Since a process created with CLONE_FD does not send any exit signal, the
low byte of the clone flags no longer needs to contain a signal number,
freeing it up for use as CLONE_FD-specific flags; use that to provide
the usual CLOEXEC and NONBLOCK flags.
CLONE_FD takes the value of the unused CLONE_PID, so CLONE4_VALID_ARGS
now includes CLONE_FD; CLONE_VALID_ARGS still doesn't, and sys_clone
still ignores that flag, as only clone4 can use it.
