* FUNCTION NAME : forker
* background
*
* FUNCTION TITLE : fork desired number of copies of the current process
* fork a process and return control to caller
*
* SYNOPSIS:
* int forker(ncopies, mode, prefix)
* int ncopies;
* int mode;
* char *prefix;
*
* int background(prefix);
* char *prefix;
*
* extern int Forker_pids[];
* extern int Forker_npids;
*
* AUTHOR : Richard Logan
*
* CO-PILOT(s) : Dean Roehrich
*
* INITIAL RELEASE : UNICOS 8.0
*
* DESIGN DESCRIPTION
* The background function will do a fork of the current process.
* The parent process will then exit, thus orphaning the
* child process. Doing this will not nice the child process
* like executing a cmd in the background using "&" from the shell.
* If the fork fails and prefix is not NULL, a error message is printed
* to stderr and the process will exit with a value of errno.
*
* The forker function will fork <ncopies> minus one copies
* of the current process. There are two modes in how the forks
* will be done. Mode 0 (default) will have all new processes
* be childern of the parent process. Using Mode 1,
* the parent process will have one child and that child will
* fork the next process, if necessary, and on and on.
* The forker function will return the number of successful
* forks. This value will be different for the parent and each child.
* Using mode 0, the parent will get the total number of successful
* forks. Using mode 1, the newest child will get the total number
* of forks. The parent will get a return value of 1.
*
* The forker function also updates the global variables
* Forker_pids[] and Forker_npids. The Forker_pids array will
* be updated to contain the pid of each new process. The
* Forker_npids variable contains the number of entries
* in Forker_pids. Note, not all processes will have
* access to all pids via Forker_pids. If using mode 0, only the
* parent process and the last process will have all information.
* If using mode 1, only the last child process will have all information.
*
* If the prefix parameter is not NULL and the fork system call fails,
* a error message will be printed to stderr. The error message
* the be preceeded with prefix string. If prefix is NULL,
* no error message is printed.
*
* SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
* None.
*
* UPDATE HISTORY
* This should contain the description, author, and date of any
* "interesting" modifications (i.e. info should helpful in
* maintaining/enhancing this module).
* username description
* ----------------------------------------------------------------
* rrl This functions will first written during
* the SFS testing days, 1993.
*
* BUGS/LIMITATIONS
* The child pids are stored in the fixed array, Forker_pids.
* The array only has space for 4098 pids. Only the first
* 4098 pids will be stored in the array.
