/* The Linux implementation of posix_spawn{p} uses the clone syscall directly
   with CLONE_VM and CLONE_VFORK flags and an allocated stack.  The new stack
   and start function solves most the vfork limitation (possible parent
   clobber due stack spilling). The remaining issue are:

   1. That no signal handlers must run in child context, to avoid corrupting
      parent's state.
   2. The parent must ensure child's stack freeing.
   3. Child must synchronize with parent to enforce 2. and to possible
      return execv issues.

   The first issue is solved by blocking all signals in child, even
   the NPTL-internal ones (SIGCANCEL and SIGSETXID).  The second and
   third issue is done by a stack allocation in parent, and by using a
   field in struct spawn_args where the child can write an error
   code. CLONE_VFORK ensures that the parent does not run until the
   child has either exec'ed successfully or exited.  */


/* The Unix standard contains a long explanation of the way to signal
   an error after the fork() was successful.  Since no new wait status
   was wanted there is no way to signal an error using one of the
   available methods.  The committee chose to signal an error by a
   normal program exit with the exit code 127.  */
