There is important information about booting non-ack images in docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the new boot monitor is recommended. Changes in this commit: . drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support . facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING . no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries . some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases . drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet). . a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir . new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/ . test compile fix . harmonize includes . /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even less on the state of the machine making them now. . rename nbsd_lib* to lib* . reduce mtree

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdlib.h
|
|
.Ft void
|
|
.Fn _Exit "int status"
|
|
.In unistd.h
|
|
.Ft void
|
|
.Fn _exit "int status"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn _Exit
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn _exit
|
|
functions are equivalent.
|
|
They each terminate a process with the following consequences:
|
|
.Bl -bullet
|
|
.It
|
|
All of the descriptors open in the calling process are closed.
|
|
This may entail delays, for example, waiting for output to drain;
|
|
a process in this state may not be killed, as it is already dying.
|
|
.It
|
|
If the parent process of the calling process has an outstanding
|
|
.Xr wait 2
|
|
call
|
|
or catches the
|
|
.Dv SIGCHLD
|
|
signal,
|
|
it is notified of the calling process's termination and
|
|
the
|
|
.Em status
|
|
is set as defined by
|
|
.Xr wait 2 .
|
|
.It
|
|
The parent process-ID of all of the calling process's existing child
|
|
processes are set to 1; the initialization process
|
|
(see the DEFINITIONS section of
|
|
.Xr intro 2 )
|
|
inherits each of these processes.
|
|
.It
|
|
If the termination of the process causes any process group
|
|
to become orphaned (usually because the parents of all members
|
|
of the group have now exited; see
|
|
.Dq orphaned process group
|
|
in
|
|
.Xr intro 2 ) ,
|
|
and if any member of the orphaned group is stopped,
|
|
the
|
|
.Dv SIGHUP
|
|
signal and the
|
|
.Dv SIGCONT
|
|
signal are sent to all members of the newly-orphaned process group.
|
|
.It
|
|
If the process is a controlling process (see
|
|
.Xr intro 2 ) ,
|
|
the
|
|
.Dv SIGHUP
|
|
signal is sent to the foreground process group of the controlling terminal,
|
|
and all current access to the controlling terminal is revoked.
|
|
.El

|
|
Most C programs call the library routine
|
|
.Xr exit 3 ,
|
|
which flushes buffers, closes streams, unlinks temporary files, etc.,
|
|
before
|
|
calling
|
|
.Fn _exit .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
.Fn _Exit
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn _exit
|
|
can never return.
