File descriptor handling changes in 2.6.27File descriptor handling changes in 2.6.27Posted Aug 4, 2008 19:30 UTC (Mon) by jreiser (subscriber, #11027)In reply to: File descriptor handling changes in 2.6.27 by spotter Parent article: File descriptor handling changes in 2.6.27 Why can't one close the fd's in the child before exec()? The problem is knowing/deciding/communicating which fd should be closed, and getting everybody to do the correct close(). Once fork() occurs, shouldn't no more fd's be added to the child? Redirecting stdin/stdout/stderr to an explicit path adds a new fd to the child.
