19 The posix_spawnattr_destroy() function destroys a spawn attributes
20 object. A destroyed attr attributes object can be reinitialized using
21 posix_spawnattr_init(). The results of otherwise referencing the object
22 after it has been destroyed are undefined. An implementation can cause
23 posix_spawnattr_destroy() to set the object referenced by attr to an
24 invalid value.
25
26
27 The posix_spawnattr_init() function initializes a spawn attributes
28 object attr with the default value for all of the individual attributes
29 used by the implementation. Results are undefined if posix_spaw‐
30 nattr_init() is called specifying an already initialized attr
31 attributes object.
32
33
34 A spawn attributes object is of type posix_spawnattr_t (defined in
35 <spawn.h>) and is used to specify the inheritance of process attributes
36 across a spawn operation.
37
38
39 No attributes other than those defined by IEEE Std 1003.1-200x are pro‐
40 vided.
41
42
43 The resulting spawn attributes object (possibly modified by setting
44 individual attribute values), is used to modify the behavior of
45 posix_spawn(3C) or posix_spawnp(3C). After a spawn attributes object
46 has been used to spawn a process by a call to posix_spawn() or
47 posix_spawnp(), any function affecting the attributes object (including
48 destruction) will not affect any process that has been spawned in this
49 way.
50
52 Upon successful completion, posix_spawnattr_destroy() and posix_spaw‐
53 nattr_init() return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indi‐
54 cate the error.
55
57 The posix_spawnattr_init() function will fail if:
58
59 ENOMEM Insufficient memory exists to initialize the spawn attributes
60 object.
61
62
63
64 The posix_spawnattr_destroy() function may fail if:
65
66 EINVAL The value specified by attr is invalid.
