/* NAME
/*	master_spawn 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	Postfix master - child process birth and death
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include "master.h"
/*
/*	void	master_spawn(serv)
/*	MASTER_SERV *serv;
/*
/*	void	master_reap_child()
/*
/*	void	master_delete_children(serv)
/*	MASTER_SERV *serv;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	This module creates and cleans up child processes, and applies
/*	a process creation throttle in case of serious trouble.
/*	This module is the working horse for the master_avail(3) process
/*	creation policy module.
/*
/*	master_spawn() spawns off a child process for the specified service,
/*	making the child process available for servicing connection requests.
/*	It is an error to call this function then the specified service is
/*	throttled.
/*
/*	master_reap_child() cleans up all dead child processes.  One typically
/*	runs this function at a convenient moment after receiving a SIGCHLD
/*	signal. When a child process terminates abnormally after being used
/*	for the first time, process creation for that service is throttled
/*	for a configurable amount of time.
/*
/*	master_delete_children() deletes all child processes that provide
/*	the named service. Upon exit, the process creation throttle for that
/*	service is released.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Panic: interface violations, internal inconsistencies.
/*	Fatal errors: out of memory.  Warnings: throttle on/off.
/* BUGS
/* SEE ALSO
/*	master_avail(3), process creation policy.
/* LICENSE
