29 Replacement for the daemon() function.
31 The daemon() function is for programs wishing to detach themselves
32 from the controlling terminal and run in the background as system
35 Unless the argument nochdir is non-zero, daemon() changes the
36 current working directory to the root (``/'').
38 Unless the argument noclose is non-zero, daemon() will redirect
39 standard input, standard output and standard error to /dev/null.
41 int daemon(int nochdir, int noclose) {
48 /* Check if forking failed */
54 /* If we are the parent, terminate */
58 /* Detach by becoming the new process group leader */
64 /* Change working directory to the root (to avoid keeping mount
70 /* Redirect stdin/out/err to /dev/null */
72 fd = open("/dev/null", O_RDWR);
75 perror("opening /dev/null");
91 #ifndef HAVE_GET_CURRENT_DIR_NAME
93 Replacement for the GNU get_current_dir_name function:
95 get_current_dir_name will malloc(3) an array big enough to hold the
96 current directory name. If the environment variable PWD is set, and
97 its value is correct, then that value will be returned.
99 char *get_current_dir_name(void) {
104 /* Start with 100 bytes. If this turns out to be insufficient to
105 contain the working directory, double the size. */
109 errno = 0; /* Success */
110 r = getcwd(buf, size);
112 /* getcwd returns NULL and sets errno to ERANGE if the bufferspace
113 is insufficient to contain the entire working directory. */
114 while(r == NULL && errno == ERANGE) {
116 size <<= 1; /* double the size */
118 r = getcwd(buf, size);
125 #ifndef HAVE_ASPRINTF
126 int asprintf(char **buf, const char *fmt, ...) {
135 status = vsnprintf(*buf, len, fmt, ap);
139 *buf = xrealloc(*buf, status + 1);
141 if(status > len - 1) {
144 status = vsnprintf(*buf, len, fmt, ap);
152 #ifndef HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY
153 int gettimeofday(struct timeval *tv, void *tz) {
