+/*++
+/* NAME
+/* master_monitor 3
+/* SUMMARY
+/* Postfix master - start-up monitoring
+/* SYNOPSIS
+/* #include "master.h"
+/*
+/* int master_monitor(time_limit)
+/* int time_limit;
+/* DESCRIPTION
+/* master_monitor() forks off a background child process, and
+/* returns in the child. The result value is the file descriptor
+/* on which the child process must write one byte after it
+/* completes successful initialization as a daemon process.
+/*
+/* The foreground process waits for the child's completion for
+/* a limited amount of time. It terminates with exit status 0
+/* in case of success, non-zero otherwise.
+/* DIAGNOSTICS
+/* Fatal errors: system call failure.
+/* BUGS
+/* SEE ALSO
+/* LICENSE
+/* .ad
+/* .fi
