The event loop object is specified in the +\fIevent\fR +parameter, the event source object is returned in the +\fIsource\fR +parameter\&. The +\fIpid\fR +parameter specifies the PID of the process to watch, which must be a direct child process of the invoking process\&. The +\fIoptions\fR +parameter determines which state changes will be watched for\&. It must contain an OR\-ed mask of +\fBWEXITED\fR +(watch for the child process terminating), +\fBWSTOPPED\fR +(watch for the child process being stopped by a signal), and +\fBWCONTINUED\fR +(watch for the child process being resumed by a signal)\&. See +\fBwaitid\fR(2) +for further information\&. +.PP +The +\fIhandler\fR +must be a function to call when the process changes state or +\fBNULL\fR\&. The handler function will be passed the +\fIuserdata\fR +pointer, which may be chosen freely by the caller\&. The handler also receives a pointer to a +siginfo_t +structure containing information about the child process event\&. The handler may return negative to signal an error (see below), other return values are ignored\&. If +\fIhandler\fR +is +\fBNULL\fR, a default handler that calls +\fBsd_event_exit\fR(3) +will be used\&. +.PP +Only a single handler may be installed for a specific child process\&. The handler is enabled for a single event (\fBSD_EVENT_ONESHOT\fR), but this may be changed with +\fBsd_event_source_set_enabled\fR(3)\&. If the handler function returns a negative error code, it will either be disabled after the invocation, even if the +\fBSD_EVENT_ON\fR +mode was requested before, or it will cause the loop to terminate, see +\fBsd_event_source_set_exit_on_failure\fR(3)\&. +.PP +To destroy an event source object use +\fBsd_event_source_unref\fR(3), but note that the event source is only removed from the event loop when all references to the event source are dropped\&. To make sure an event source does not fire anymore, even when there\*(Aqs still a reference to it kept, consider setting the event source to +\fBSD_EVENT_OFF\fR +with +\fBsd_event_source_set_enabled\fR(3)\&. +.PP +The +\fBSIGCHLD\fR +signal must be blocked in all threads before this function is called (using +\fBsigprocmask\fR(2) +or +\fBpthread_sigmask\fR(3))\&. +.PP +If the second parameter of +\fBsd_event_add_child()\fR +is passed as +\fBNULL\fR +no reference to the event source object is returned\&. In this case the event source is considered "floating", and will be destroyed implicitly when the event loop itself is destroyed\&. +.PP +Note that the +\fIhandler\fR +function is invoked at a time where the child process is not reaped yet (and thus still is exposed as a zombie process by the kernel)\&. However, the child will be reaped automatically after the function returns\&. Child processes for which no child process state change event sources are installed will not be reaped by the event loop implementation\&. +.PP +If the +\fIhandler\fR +parameter to +\fBsd_event_add_child()\fR +is +\fBNULL\fR, and the event source fires, this will be considered a request to exit the event loop\&. In this case, the +\fIuserdata\fR +parameter, cast to an integer, is passed as the exit code parameter to +\fBsd_event_exit\fR(3)\&. +.PP +If both a child process state change event source and a +\fBSIGCHLD\fR +signal event source is installed in the same event loop, the configured event source priorities decide which event source is dispatched first\&. If the signal handler is processed first, it should leave the child processes for which child process state change event sources are installed unreaped\&. +.PP +\fBsd_event_add_child_pidfd()\fR +is similar to +\fBsd_event_add_child()\fR +but takes a file descriptor referencing the process ("pidfd") instead of the numeric PID\&. A suitable file descriptor may be acquired via +\fBpidfd_open\fR(2) +and related calls\&. The passed file descriptor is not closed when the event source is freed again, unless +\fBsd_event_source_set_child_pidfd_own()\fR +is used to turn this behaviour on\&. Note that regardless which of +\fBsd_event_add_child()\fR +and +\fBsd_event_add_child_pidfd()\fR +is used for allocating an event source, the watched process has to be a direct child process of the invoking process\&. Also in both cases +\fBSIGCHLD\fR +has to be blocked in the invoking process\&. +.PP +\fBsd_event_source_get_child_pid()\fR +retrieves the configured PID of a child process state change event source created previously with +\fBsd_event_add_child()\fR\&. It takes the event source object as the +\fIsource\fR +parameter and a pointer to a +\fBpid_t\fR +variable to return the process ID in\&. +.PP +\fBsd_event_source_get_child_pidfd()\fR +retrieves the file descriptor referencing the watched process ("pidfd") if this functionality is available\&. On kernels that support the concept the event loop will make use of pidfds to watch child processes, regardless if the individual event sources are allocated via +\fBsd_event_add_child()\fR +or +\fBsd_event_add_child_pidfd()\fR\&. If the latter call was used to allocate the event source, this function returns the file descriptor used for allocation\&. On kernels that do not support the pidfd concept this function will fail with +\fBEOPNOTSUPP\fR\&. This call takes the event source object as the +\fIsource\fR +parameter and returns the numeric file descriptor\&. +.PP +\fBsd_event_source_get_child_pidfd_own()\fR +may be used to query whether the pidfd the event source encapsulates shall be closed when the event source is freed\&. This function returns zero if the pidfd shall be left open, and positive if it shall be closed automatically\&. By default this setting defaults to on if the event source was allocated via +\fBsd_event_add_child()\fR +and off if it was allocated via +\fBsd_event_add_child_pidfd()\fR\&. The +\fBsd_event_source_set_child_pidfd_own()\fR +function may be used to change the setting and takes a boolean parameter with the new setting\&. +.PP +\fBsd_event_source_get_child_process_own()\fR +may be used to query whether the process the event source watches shall be killed (with +\fBSIGKILL\fR) and reaped when the event source is freed\&. This function returns zero if the process shell be left running, and positive if it shall be killed and reaped automatically\&. By default this setting defaults to off\&. The +\fBsd_event_source_set_child_process_own()\fR +function may be used to change the setting and takes a boolean parameter with the new setting\&. Note that currently if the calling process is terminated abnormally the watched process might survive even thought the event source ceases to exist\&. This behaviour might change eventually\&. +.PP +\fBsd_event_source_send_child_signal()\fR +may be used to send a UNIX signal to the watched process\&. If the pidfd concept is supported in the kernel, this is implemented via +\fBpidfd_send_signal\fR(2) +and otherwise via +\fBrt_sigqueueinfo\fR(2) +(or via +\fBkill\fR(2) +in case +\fIinfo\fR +is +\fBNULL\fR)\&. The specified parameters match those of these underlying system calls, except that the +\fIinfo\fR +is never modified (and is thus declared constant)\&. Like for the underlying system calls, the +\fIflags\fR +parameter currently must be zero\&. +.SH "RETURN VALUE" +.PP +On success, these functions return 0 or a positive integer\&. On failure, they return a negative errno\-style error code\&. +.SS "Errors" +.PP +Returned errors may indicate the following problems: +.PP +\fB\-ENOMEM\fR +.RS 4 +Not enough memory to allocate an object\&. +.RE +.PP +\fB\-EINVAL\fR +.RS 4 +An invalid argument has been passed\&. This includes specifying an empty mask in +\fIoptions\fR +or a mask which contains values different than a combination of +\fBWEXITED\fR, +\fBWSTOPPED\fR, and +\fBWCONTINUED\fR\&. +.RE +.PP +\fB\-EBUSY\fR +.RS 4 +A handler is already installed for this child process, or +\fBSIGCHLD\fR +is not blocked\&. +.RE +.PP +\fB\-ESTALE\fR +.RS 4 +The event loop is already terminated\&. +.RE +.PP +\fB\-ECHILD\fR +.RS 4 +The event loop has been created in a different process, library or module instance\&. +.RE +.PP +\fB\-EDOM\fR +.RS 4 +The passed event source is not a child process event source\&. +.RE +.PP +\fB\-EOPNOTSUPP\fR +.RS 4 +A pidfd was requested but the kernel does not support this concept\&. +.sp +Added in version 245\&. +.RE +.SH "NOTES" +.PP +Functions described here are available as a shared library, which can be compiled against and linked to with the +\fBlibsystemd\fR\ \&\fBpkg-config\fR(1) +file\&. +.PP +The code described here uses +\fBgetenv\fR(3), which is declared to be not multi\-thread\-safe\&. This means that the code calling the functions described here must not call +\fBsetenv\fR(3) +from a parallel thread\&.
