The old wording was ambiguous, but it is important to know that signals
that were set to SIG_IGN will not be restored to SIG_DFL.
This behavior was documented in the kernel commit that introduced the
feature, in the link below.

We're trying to "standardize" on a paragraphing macro from the three
equivalent ones (P, PP, LP). We (somewhat arbitrarily) agreed on P.

CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_PARENT was only prohibited during a short period.
That prohibition was introduced in Linux 3.12, in commit 40a0d32d1eaf
("fork: unify and tighten up CLONE_NEWUSER/CLONE_NEWPID checks"), but
was a regression, and was fixed in Linux 3.13, in commit 1f7f4dde5c94
("fork: Allow CLONE_PARENT after setns(CLONE_NEWPID)").
In this test program, one can see that it works:
#include <err.h>
#include <linux/sched.h>
#include <sched.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <unistd.h>
static pid_t sys_clone3(struct clone_args *args);
int
main(void)
{
int ret;
struct clone_args args = {
.flags = CLONE_PARENT | CLONE_NEWPID,
};
printf("main program: pid: %d, and ppid: %d\n", getpid(), getppid());
ret = sys_clone3(&args);
switch (ret) {
case -1:
err(EXIT_FAILURE, "clone3");
case 0:
printf("child: pid: %d, and ppid: %d\n", getpid(), getppid());
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
default:
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
}
static pid_t
sys_clone3(struct clone_args *args)
{
fflush(stdout);
fflush(stderr);
return syscall(SYS_clone3, args, sizeof(*args));
}
This test program (successfully) outputs:
# ./a.out
main program: pid: 34663, and ppid: 34662
child: pid: 1, and ppid: 0

- Add a new HISTORY section that covers the history of an API, both
regarding implementations and regarding old standards. This was
previously covered in VERSIONS, and in some cases in STANDARDS.
- Repurpose VERSIONS to cover differing implementations in _current_
systems.
- STANDARDS is reduced to only cover current versions of standards.
That basically means only C11 (C99 has been superseeded by C11; C17
is just a bugfix of C11, so not really a new version), and
POSIX.1-2008 (*-2001 was superseeded by *-2008; *-2017 was just a
bugfix for *-2008). The section also mentions for example 'Linux',
'GNU' or 'BSD' when a non-standard API is Linux- or GNU-only or if
it's (de-facto) standard in the BSDs.
- In some cases content that should go into one of these sections was
in NOTES. Move it from there to where it corresponds.
- In the SYNOPSIS, I added [[deprecated]] in some functions that I
found are deprecated by the relevant standards.
- A few other related changes...

Document that Linux will report EINVAL when exit_signal is specified and
either CLONE_THREAD or CLONE_PARENT is specified.
From clone3_args_valid in Linux:
```
if ((kargs->flags & (CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_PARENT)) &&
kargs->exit_signal)
return false;
```
I have verified that this happens on my kernel with a small program:
```
#include <stdio.h>
#include <linux/sched.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void)
{
struct clone_args ca = {
.flags = CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_SIGHAND | CLONE_VM,
.exit_signal = SIGCHLD, // comment me out to fix error
.set_tid_size = 0,
};
syscall(SYS_clone3, &ca, sizeof(struct clone_args));
perror("");
}
```
And I have verified that this doesn't happen with normal `clone` through
the glibc helper:
```
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <sched.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
int do_nothing(void *_) { return 0; }
int main(void)
{
void *map = mmap(NULL, 0x10000, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE, 0, 0);
void *stack_top = map + 0x10000 - 1;
clone(do_nothing, stack_top,
CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_VM | CLONE_SIGHAND | SIGCHLD, NULL);
perror("");
}
```

Refer consistently to software versions. In most cases, it is done as
<software> <version>. In the case of Linux and glibc, use the project
name, instead of other terms such as 'kernel' or 'library'.
I found the uses of inconsistent language with the following:
$ find man* -type f \
| xargs grep -i '\(since\|before\|after\|until\|to\|from\|in\|between\|version\|with\) \(kernel\|version\|2\.\|3\.\|4\.\|5\.\)' \
| sort
However, I might have missed some cases. Anyway, 99% consistency is
pretty good consistency. We'll fix the remaining cases as we see them.

There are different kinds of lists:
Tagged paragraphs
These are fixed in a separate commit (the previous one).
They are used for a list of tags and their descriptions.
An example is this commit message itself.
Ordered lists
Elements are preceeded by a number in parentheses.
These represent a set of steps that have an order.
When there are substeps, they will be numbered like (4.2).
Positional lists
Elements are preceeded by a number in square brackets
(index). These represent fields in a set. The index will
start at:
0 fields of a C data structure, to be consistent
with arrays.
1 fields of a file, to be consistent with tools like
cut(1).
Alternatives list
Elements are preceeded by a letter in parentheses.
These represent a set of (normally) exclusive
alternatives.
Bullet lists
Elements are preceeded by bullet symbols. Anything that
doesn't fit elsewhere usually is covered by this type of
list.
Notes
Not really a list, but the syntax is identical to
"positional lists".
There should always be 2 spaces between the list symbol and the
elements. This doesn't apply to "tagged paragraphs", which use
the default indentation rules.

Replace the date by a placeholder (date) in the repo, as we're
doing with the version (unreleased). It will be filled when the
tarball is generated with 'make dist' (or equivalent) with the
date of the most recent git commit that modifies the page (as was
done previously by update_timestamps.sh, which has been removed).
Scripted change (mostly):

When reporting errors, prefer using conventional <err.h>
functions, rather than home-made macros. Home-made macros are
necessary for portable programs, so in documentation about
portable functions, keep using the macros. However, in the
documentation for functions that are only available in GNU/Linux
and/or BSD systems, prefer <err.h>, which is available in both
systems.
Do the same in example programs documenting portable functions but
in which we already require _GNU_SOURCE for some other reason.

Kernel __u64 and similar types are ABI-compatible, and mostly
API-compatible with ISO C types. User-space programmers don't
care about kernel details, and should only use libc types.
Document syscalls and structures provided by the Linux kernel as
if they used libc types.
There's work in the kernel to remove this small API
incompatibility, which is only for pointers or printf specifiers.
Since I couldn't find any structure that uses pointers, there
shouldn't be any issues here. Also, the only pointer I found was
in a syscall parameter, but since syscall(2) doesn't check its
arguments' types, we're also safe there.
This patch doesn't go without controversy. Check the discussions
in the links below.

Now that we have the LIBRARY section, and a 4th argument that
already tells that it's a page from the Linux man-pages project,
the 5th argument isn't telling any information that the default
value wouldn't. So let's just remove it.

[Andrew]:
I noticed that clone3 can send the EACCES errno after I wrote a
program that used clone3 with the CLONE_INTO_CGROUP flag.
To me, it's important to know what kind of failure occurred if the
clone3() fails, so I was glad that a unique errno is set for
this case, but it wasn't documented on the clone man page.
[Christian]:
In essence, any error that could occur during regular fs-based migration
at write-time can also occur during CLONE_INTO_CGROUP. The clone3()
manpage just has the inverse of that above statement:
"Note that all of the usual restrictions (described in cgroups(7)) on
placing a process into a version 2 cgroup apply."

The CLONE_* constants seem to be available from either
<linux/sched.h> or <sched.h>, and since clone3() already
includes <linux/sched.h> for 'struct clone_args', <sched.h>
is not really needed, AFAICS; however, to avoid confusion,
I also included <sched.h> for clone3() for consistency:
clone() is getting CLONE_* from <sched.h>, and it would confuse
the reader if clone3() got the same CLONE_* constants from a
different header.

In the RETURN VALUE sections, a number of different wordings
are used in to describe the fact that 'errno' is set on error.
There's no reason for the difference in wordings, since the same
thing is being described in each case. Switch to a standard
wording that is the same as FreeBSD and similar to the wording
used in POSIX.1.
In this change, fix some instances stating that 'errno' is set
"appropriately" to instead say "to indicate the error".

To easily distinguish documentation about glibc wrappers from
documentation about kernel syscalls, let's have a normalized
'Note' in the SYNOPSIS, and a further explanation in the page body
(NOTES in most of them), as already happened in many (but not all)
of the manual pages for syscalls without a wrapper. Furthermore,
let's normalize the messages, following membarrier.2 (because it's
already quite extended), so that it's easy to use grep to find
those pages.
To find these pages, we used:
$ grep -rn wrapper man? | sort -V
and
$ grep -rni support.*glibc | sort -V
delete_module.2, init_module.2: glibc 2.23 is no longer
maintained, so we changed the notes about wrappers, to say that
there are no glibc wrappers for these system calls; see NOTES.
We didn't fix some obsolete pages such as create_module.2.

Remove superfluous paragraph macros.
Remove ".br" if it is before a line that starts with a space
character, as such lines automatically cause a break.
###
The output is unchanged, except two empty lines are added at the
bottom (before the footer line) in the output of "nroff" for the files
"alloc_hugepages.2" and "userfaultfd.2".

As noted in email by Christian Brauner:
I forgot to mention that spawning directly into a target
cgroup is also more efficient than moving it after creation.
The specific reason is mentioned in the commit message
[ef2c41cf38a], the write lock of the semaphore need not be
taken in contrast to when it is moved afterwards. That
implementation details is not that interesting but it might
be interesting to know that it provides performance benefits
in general.

Advertise to userspace that they should use proper pid_t types
for arguments returning a pid.
The kernel-internal struct kernel_clone_args currently uses int
as type and since POSIX mandates that pid_t is a signed integer
type and glibc and friends use int this is not an issue. After
the merge window for v5.5 closes we can switch struct
kernel_clone_args over to using pid_t as well without any danger
in regressing current userspace.
Also note, that the new set tid feature which will be merged for
v5.5 uses pid_t types as well.

Christian Brauner suggested mmap(MAP_STACKED), rather than
malloc(), as the canonical way of allocating a stack for the
child of clone(), and Jann Horn noted some reasons why:
Not on Linux, but on OpenBSD, they do use MAP_STACK now
AFAIK; this was announced here:
<http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/stack-register-checking-td338238.html>.
Basically they periodically check whether the userspace
stack pointer points into a MAP_STACK region, and if not,
they kill the process. So even if it's a no-op on Linux, it
might make sense to advise people to use the flag to improve
portability? I'm not sure if that's something that belongs
in Linux manpages.
Another reason against malloc() is that when setting up
thread stacks in proper, reliable software, you'll probably
want to place a guard page (in other words, a 4K PROT_NONE
VMA) at the bottom of the stack to reliably catch stack
overflows; and you probably don't want to do that with
malloc, in particular with non-page-aligned allocations.
And the OpenBSD 6.5 manual pages says:
MAP_STACK
Indicate that the mapping is used as a stack. This
flag must be used in combination with MAP_ANON and
MAP_PRIVATE.
And I then noticed that MAP_STACK seems already to be on
FreeBSD for a long time:
MAP_STACK
Map the area as a stack. MAP_ANON is implied.
Offset should be 0, fd must be -1, and prot should
include at least PROT_READ and PROT_WRITE. This
option creates a memory region that grows to at
most len bytes in size, starting from the stack
top and growing down. The stack top is the start‐
ing address returned by the call, plus len bytes.
The bottom of the stack at maximum growth is the
starting address returned by the call.
The entire area is reserved from the point of view
of other mmap() calls, even if not faulted in yet.

CLONE_CHILD_SETTID may not have had effect by the time clone()
returns in the parent, which could bre relevant if the
CLONE_VM flag is employed. The relevant kernel code is in
schedule_tail(), which is called in ret_from_fork()
in the child.
See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203105
Demonstration using the program shown below (inspired by a simpler
example from Jakub):
$ ./a.out
parent start: ctid = 0 ptid = 6212
child start: ctid = 6212 ptid = 6212
child later: ctid = 6212 ptid = 6212
cat parent later: ctid = 6212 ptid = 6212
f.child -- bye
$ cat prog.c
static volatile pid_t ctid, ptid;
static int
child_fn(void *arg)
{
printf("child start: ctid = %5d ptid = %5d\n", ctid, ptid);
sleep(1);
printf("child later: ctid = %5d ptid = %5d\n", ctid, ptid);
sleep(2);
printf("child -- bye\n");
return 0;
}
int
main(void)
{
void *stack = malloc(0x1000);
char *stack_top = (char *) stack + 0x1000;
int flags = SIGCHLD | CLONE_VM |
// CLONE_VFORK |
CLONE_PARENT_SETTID | CLONE_CHILD_SETTID;
if (clone(child_fn, stack_top, flags, NULL, &ptid, NULL, &ctid) == -1) {
perror("clone");
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
fprintf(stderr, "parent start: ctid = %5d ptid = %5d\n", ctid, ptid);

Quoting Branden:
*roff escape sequences may sometimes look like C escapes, but that
is misleading. *roff is in part a macro language and that means
recursive expansion to arbitrary depths.
You can get away with "\\" in a context where no macro expansion
is taking place, but try to spell a literal backslash this way in
the argument to a macro and you will likely be unhappy with
results.
Try viewing the attached file with "man -l".
"\e" is the preferred and portable way to get a portable "escape
literal" going back to CSTR #54, the original Bell Labs troff
paper.
groff(7) discusses the issue:
\\ reduces to a single backslash; useful to delay its
interpretation as escape character in copy mode. For a
printable backslash, use \e, or even better \[rs], to be
independent from the current escape character.
As of groff 1.22.4, groff_man(7) does as well:
\e Widely used in man pages to represent a backslash output
glyph. It works reliably as long as the .ec request is
not used, which should never happen in man pages, and it
is slightly more portable than the more exact ‘\(rs’
(“reverse solidus”) escape sequence.
People not concerned with portability to extremely old troffs should
probably just use \(rs (or \[rs]), as it means "the backslash
glyph", not "the glyph corresponding to whatever the current escape
character is".

See copy_process() in kernel/fork.c:
if (clone_flags & CLONE_THREAD) {
if ((clone_flags & (CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID)) ||
(task_active_pid_ns(current) !=
current->nsproxy->pid_ns_for_children))
return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);
}
current->nsproxy->pid_ns_for_children is where unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)
stashes the pending namespace.

kernels to just '2.6.0'
The extra detail has little of noting with -test 2.6.0
added a particular feature has little value these days,
and is likely to confuse some readers who don't know
(and probably don't care) about the historical details.

Consistently use "x86-64", not "x86_64"
When referring to the architecture, consistently use "x86-64",
not "x86_64". Hitherto, there was a mixture of usages, with
"x86-64" predominant.

The prototype for the system call was added in kernel commit
81f10dad, but looking at the kernel's fork.c, I believe the
relevant definition is
SYSCALL_DEFINE5(clone, unsigned long, clone_flags,
unsigned long, newsp,
int __user *, parent_tidptr,
int __user *, child_tidptr,
unsigned long, tls)
so the last argument is the tls argument, not a pt_regs argument.
I stumbled upon this while trying to understand CLONE_SETTLS, so
I expanded that description a little to cover other architectures.

Clarify that this error is produced by the wrapper function, not
the underlying system call. In particular, the point is that the
raw system call can accommodate a NULL pointer for 'child_stack'.

As noted by Colin King:
Currently, the aarch64 clone() system call requires the stack
to be aligned at a 16 byte boundary, see
arch/arm64/kernel/process.c, copy_thread():
if (stack_start) {
if (is_compat_thread(task_thread_info(p)))
childregs->compat_sp = stack_start;
/* 16-byte aligned stack mandatory on AArch64 */
else if (stack_start & 15)
return -EINVAL;
else
childregs->sp = stack_start;
}
..and returns -EINVAL if not aligned correctly. This should
be added to the manual page clone(2) as it took me a while to
figure out why clone() was failing with -EINVAL for aarch64
but not on x86.

Since Linux 2.6.17, clone and fork syscalls return ERESTARTNOINTR
when interrupted by a signal before newly created process is added
to its process group.
This error code can only be seen by ptrace at syscall exit tracing.

The right way to expose declarations for these Linux-specific
system calls was always _GNU_SOURCE. Mentioning the historical
use of _BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE just clouds the issue.

the title. These subsections are about describing differences
between the kernel and (g)libc interfaces.

Clone has so many effects that it's an oversimplification to say
that the *main* use of clone is to create a thread. (In fact,
the use of clone() to create new processes may well be more
common, since glibc's fork() is a wrapper that calls clone().)
