/* NAME
/* master_avail 3
/* SUMMARY
/* Postfix master - process creation policy
/* SYNOPSIS
/* #include "master.h"
/*
/* void master_avail_listen(serv)
/* MASTER_SERV *serv;
/*
/* void master_avail_cleanup(serv)
/* MASTER_SERV *serv;
/*
/* void master_avail_more(serv, proc)
/* MASTER_SERV *serv;
/* MASTER_PROC *proc;
/*
/* void master_avail_less(serv, proc)
/* MASTER_SERV *serv;
/* MASTER_PROC *proc;
/* DESCRIPTION
/* This module implements the process creation policy. As long as
/* the allowed number of processes for the given service is not
/* exceeded, a connection request is either handled by an existing
/* available process, or this module causes a new process to be
/* created to service the request.
/*
/* When the service runs out of process slots, and the service
/* is eligible for stress-mode operation, a warning is logged,
/* servers are asked to restart at their convenience, and new
/* servers are created with stress mode enabled.
/*
/* master_avail_listen() ensures that someone monitors the service's
/* listen socket for connection requests (as long as resources
/* to handle connection requests are available). This function may
/* be called at random times, but it must be called after each status
/* change of a service (throttled, process limit, etc.) or child
/* process (taken, available, dead, etc.).
/*
/* master_avail_cleanup() should be called when the named service
/* is taken out of operation. It terminates child processes by
/* sending SIGTERM.
/*
/* master_avail_more() should be called when the named process
/* has become available for servicing new connection requests.
/* This function updates the process availability status and
/* counter, and implicitly calls master_avail_listen().
/*
/* master_avail_less() should be called when the named process
/* has become unavailable for servicing new connection requests.
/* This function updates the process availability status and
/* counter, and implicitly calls master_avail_listen().
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/* Panic: internal inconsistencies.
/* BUGS

/* master_spawn(3), child process birth and death
