class mp :?keep_fd_open:bool -> ?terminate_tmo:int -> unit ->
Netplex_types.parallelizer
Unix.fork
to create new threads.
After forking the child process is initialized by
calling Netsys_posix.run_post_fork_handlers
.
By default, all file descriptors are closed that are not explicitly
shared with the parent process. This can be wrong for some kind
of applications. By setting keep_fd_open
another behavior can
be demanded: The descriptors are kept open except those that need
to be closed.
When the controller wants to shut down the process, it notifies
the process, and waits terminate_tmo
seconds until the process
terminates. If this timeout expires, the process is killed. Defaults
to 60. A negative value disables this function.
