NAME

posix_spawnattr_getflags posix_spawnattr_setflags — get and set the spawn-flags attribute of a spawn attributes object (ADVANCED REALTIME)

SYNOPSIS

[SPN]
#include <spawn.h>

int posix_spawnattr_getflags(const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attr,
       short *restrict flags);
int posix_spawnattr_setflags(posix_spawnattr_t *attr, short flags);

DESCRIPTION

The posix_spawnattr_getflags () function shall obtain the value of the spawn-flags attribute from the attributes object referenced by attr.

The posix_spawnattr_setflags () function shall set the spawn-flags attribute in an initialized attributes object referenced by attr.

The spawn-flags attribute is used to indicate which process attributes are to be changed in the new process image when invoking posix_spawn(3) or posix_spawnp(3). It is the bitwise-inclusive OR of zero or more of the following flags:

POSIX_SPAWN_RESETIDS POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGDEF POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGMASK [PS] POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDPARAM POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDULER

These flags are defined in <spawn.h>. The default value of this attribute shall be as if no flags were set.

RETURN VALUE

Upon successful completion, posix_spawnattr_getflags () shall return zero and store the value of the spawn-flags attribute of attr into the object referenced by the flags parameter; otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate the error.

Upon successful completion, posix_spawnattr_setflags () shall return zero; otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate the error.
