POSIX::AtFork(3pm)

NAME
POSIX::AtFork - Hook registrations at fork(2)

SYNOPSIS
  # POSIX interface:
  use POSIX::AtFork qw(:all);

  pthread_atfork(\&prepare, \&parent, \&child);

  # or per-hook interfaces:
  POSIX::AtFork->add_to_prepare(\&prepare);
  POSIX::AtFork->add_to_parent(\&parent);
  POSIX::AtFork->add_to_child(\&child);

  # registered callbacks can be removed
  POSIX::AtFork->delete_from_prepare(\&prepare);
  POSIX::AtFork->delete_from_parent( \&parent);
  POSIX::AtFork->delete_from_child(  \&child);

DESCRIPTION
This module is an interface to pthread_atfork(3), which registeres handlers called before and after fork(2).

INTERFACE

  pthread_atfork(\&prepare, \&parent, \&child)
Registeres hooks called before fork() (&prepare) and after (&parent for the parent, &child for the child).

All callbacks are called with the current opname, namely "fork", "system", "backtick", and etc.

This exportable function is an interface to pthread_atfork(3).

  POSIX::AtFork->add_to_prepare(\&hook)
The same as "pthread_atfork(\&hook, undef, undef)".

  POSIX::AtFork->add_to_parent(\&hook)
The same as "pthread_atfork(undef, \&hook, undef)".

  POSIX::Atfork->add_to_child(\&hook)
The same as "pthread_atfork(undef, undef, \&hook)".

  POSIX::AtFork->delete_from_prepare(\&hook)
Deletes &hook from the "prepare" hook list.

  POSIX::AtFork->delete_from_parent(\&hook)
Deletes &hook from the "parent" hook list.

  POSIX::AtFork->delete_from_child(\&hook)
Deletes &hook from the "child" hook list.
