val this_process_became_child_of_init : ?⁠poll_delay:Core.Time.Span.t -> unit -> unit Async_unix__.Import.Deferred.t

this_process_became_child_of_init returns a deferred that becomes determined when the current process becomes a child of init(8). This is useful for determining whether one's parent has died, because in that case init will become one's parent.

See Linux_ext.pr_set_pdeathsig : Signal.t -> unit for a related way to get information about parent death.

?poll_delay controls how often to check.

val nice : int -> int
val cores : (unit -> int Async_unix__.Import.Deferred.t) Core.Or_error.t

cores () Returns the number of cores.

val with_file : ?⁠exclusive:[ `Read | `Write ] -> ?⁠perm:file_perm -> string -> mode:open_flag list -> f:(Fd.t -> 'a Async_unix__.Import.Deferred.t) -> 'a Async_unix__.Import.Deferred.t

with_file file ~mode ~perm ~f ?exclusive opens file, and applies f to the resulting file descriptor. When the result of f becomes determined, it closes the descriptor and returns the result of f. If exclusive is supplied, then the file descriptor is locked before calling f and unlocked after calling f.

module Open_flags = Core.Unix.Open_flags
val fcntl_getfl : Fd.t -> Open_flags.t Async_unix__.Import.Deferred.t

fcntl_getfl and fcntl_setf are deferred wrappers around the corresponding functions in Core.Unix for accessing the open-file-descriptor table.

val close : ?⁠file_descriptor_handling:file_descriptor_handling -> Fd.t -> unit Async_unix__.Import.Deferred.t

close t prevents further use of t, and makes shutdown() and close() system calls on t's underlying file descriptor according to the file_descriptor_handling argument and whether or not t is a socket, i.e., kind t = Socket `Active:

        | file_descriptor_handling                     | shutdown() | close() |
        |----------------------------------------------+------------+---------|
        | Do_not_close_file_descriptor                 | no         | no      |
        | Close_file_descriptor Shutdown_socket        | if socket  | yes     |
        | Close_file_descriptor Do_not_shutdown_socket | no         | yes     |

The result of close becomes determined once the system calls complete. It is OK to call close multiple times on the same t; calls subsequent to the initial call will have no effect, but will return the same deferred as the original call.

val lockf : ?⁠len:Core.Int64.t -> Fd.t -> [ `Read | `Write ] -> unit Async_unix__.Import.Deferred.t

lockf fd read_or_write ?len exclusively locks for reading/writing the section of the open file fd specified by the current file position and len (see man lockf). It returns when the lock has been acquired. It raises if fd is closed.

val try_lockf : ?⁠len:Core.Int64.t -> Fd.t -> [ `Read | `Write ] -> bool

try_lockf fd read_or_write ?len attempts to exclusively lock for reading/writing the section of the open file fd specified by the current file position and len (see man lockf). It returns true if it acquired the lock. It raises if fd is closed.

val test_lockf : ?⁠len:Core.Int64.t -> Fd.t -> bool

lockf_is_locked fd ?len checks the lock on section of the open file fd specified by the current file position and len (see man lockf). If the section is unlocked or locked by this process, it returns true, else it returns false. It raises if fd is closed.

val unlockf : ?⁠len:Core.Int64.t -> Fd.t -> unit

unlockf fd ?len unlocks the section of the open file fd specified by the current file position and len (see man lockf). It raises if fd is closed.

val mkfifo : ?⁠perm:file_perm -> string -> unit Async_unix__.Import.Deferred.t

Create a named pipe with the given permissions.

val mkstemp : string -> (string * Fd.t) Async_unix__.Import.Deferred.t

mkstemp prefix creates and opens a unique temporary file with prefix, automatically appending a suffix of six random characters to make the name unique. Unlike C's mkstemp, prefix should not include six X's at the end.

fork_exec ~prog ~argv ?path ?env forks and execs prog with argv, and returns the child pid. If use_path = true (the default) and prog doesn't contain a slash, then fork_exec searches the PATH environment variable for prog. If env is supplied, it specifies the environment when prog is executed.

If env contains multiple bindings for the same variable, the last takes precedence. In the case of `Extend, bindings in env take precedence over the existing environment. See Unix.exec.

waitpid pid returns a deferred that becomes determined with the child's exit status, when the child process with process id pid exits. waitpid_exn is like waitpid, except the result only becomes determined if the child exits with status zero; it raises if the child terminates in any other way.

This returns a deferred because the username may need to be looked up in what is essentially a database elsewhere on the network (winbound user, or NIS).
