- * [OTP-3906]
- * Solaris signal management gets confused when threads are used and a
- * lot of child processes dies. The confusion results in that SIGCHLD
- * signals aren't delivered to the emulator which in turn results in
- * a lot of defunct processes in the system.
- *
- * The problem seems to appear when a signal is frequently
- * blocked/unblocked at the same time as the signal is frequently
- * propagated. The child waiter thread is a workaround for this problem.
- * The SIGCHLD signal is always blocked (in all threads), and the child
- * waiter thread fetches the signal by a call to sigwait(). See
- * child_waiter().

-  [arndt] In most Unix systems, including Solaris 2.5, 'fork' allocates memory
-  in swap space for the child of a 'fork', whereas 'vfork' does not do this.
-  The natural call to use here is therefore 'vfork'. Due to a bug in
-  'vfork' in Solaris 2.5 (apparently fixed in 2.6), using 'vfork'
-  can be dangerous in what seems to be these circumstances:
-      If the child code under a vfork sets the signal action to SIG_DFL
-      (or SIG_IGN)
-      for any signal which was previously set to a signal handler, the
-      state of the parent is clobbered, so that the later arrival of
-      such a signal yields a sigsegv in the parent. If the signal was
-      not set to a signal handler, but ignored, all seems to work.
-  If you change the forking code below, beware of this.

-     * Historical:
-     *
-     * "Note about nonblocking I/O.
-     *
-     * At least on Solaris, setting the write end of a TTY to nonblocking,
-     * will set the input end to nonblocking as well (and vice-versa).
-     * If erl is run in a pipeline like this:  cat | erl
-     * the input end of the TTY will be the standard input of cat.
-     * And cat is not prepared to handle nonblocking I/O."
-     *
-     * Actually, the reason for this is not that the tty itself gets set
-     * in non-blocking mode, but that the "input end" (cat's stdin) and
-     * the "output end" (erlang's stdout) are typically the "same" file
-     * descriptor, dup()'ed from a single fd by one of this process'
-     * ancestors.
-     *
-     * The workaround for this problem used to be a rather bad kludge,
-     * interposing an extra process ("internal cat") between erlang's
-     * stdout and the original stdout, allowing erlang to set its stdout
-     * in non-blocking mode without affecting the stdin of the preceding
-     * process in the pipeline - and being a kludge, it caused all kinds
-     * of weird problems.
-     *
-     * So, this is the current logic:
-     *
-     * The only reason to set non-blocking mode on the output fd at all is
-     * if it's something that can cause a write() to block, of course,
-     * i.e. primarily if it points to a tty, socket, pipe, or fifo. 
-     *
-     * If we don't set non-blocking mode when we "should" have, and output
-     * becomes blocked, the entire runtime system will be suspended - this
-     * is normally bad of course, and can happen fairly "easily" - e.g. user
-     * hits ^S on tty - but doesn't necessarily happen.
-     * 
-     * If we do set non-blocking mode when we "shouldn't" have, the runtime
-     * system will end up seeing EOF on the input fd (due to the preceding
-     * process dying), which typically will cause the entire runtime system
-     * to terminate immediately (due to whatever erlang process is seeing
-     * the EOF taking it as a signal to halt the system). This is *very* bad.
-     * 
-     * I.e. we should take a conservative approach, and only set non-
-     * blocking mode when we a) need to, and b) are reasonably certain
-     * that it won't be a problem. And as in the example above, the problem
-     * occurs when input fd and output fd point to different "things".
-     *
-     * However, determining that they are not just the same "type" of
-     * "thing", but actually the same instance of that type of thing, is
-     * unreasonably complex in many/most cases.
-     *
-     * Also, with pipes, sockets, and fifos it's far from obvious that the
-     * user *wants* non-blocking output: If you're running erlang inside
-     * some complex pipeline, you're probably not running a real-time system
-     * that must never stop, but rather *want* it to suspend if the output
-     * channel is "full".
-     *
-     * So, the bottom line: We will only set the output fd non-blocking if
-     * it points to a tty, and either a) the input fd also points to a tty,
-     * or b) we can make sure that setting the output fd non-blocking
-     * doesn't interfere with someone else's input, via a somewhat milder
-     * kludge than the above.
-     *
-     * Also keep in mind that while this code is almost exclusively run as
-     * a result of an erlang open_port({fd,0,1}, ...), that isn't the only
-     * case - it can be called with any old pre-existing file descriptors,
-     * the relations between which (if they're even two) we can only guess
-     * at - still, we try our best...
-     *
-     * Added note OTP 18: Some systems seem to use stdout/stderr to log data
-     * using unix pipes, so we cannot allow the system to block on a write.
-     * Therefore we use an async thread to write the data to fd's that could
-     * not be set to non-blocking. When no async threads are available we
-     * fall back on the old behaviour.
-     *
-     * Also the guarantee about what is delivered to the OS has changed.
-     * Pre 18 the fd driver did no flushing of data before terminating.
-     * Now it does. This is because we want to be able to guarantee that things
-     * such as escripts and friends really have outputted all data before
-     * terminating. This could potentially block the termination of the system
-     * for a very long time, but if the user wants to terminate fast she should
-     * use erlang:halt with flush=false.

-			  wherever ttyname() looks for it), and isn't
-			  equivalent to any of those that do live in the
-			  "standard" place - this should be *very* unusual.
-
-		       2) Permissions on the tty don't allow us to open it -
-			  it's perfectly possible to have an fd open to an
-			  object whose permissions wouldn't allow us to open
-			  it. This is not as unusual as it sounds, one case
-			  is if the user has su'ed to someone else (not
-			  root) - we have a read/write fd open to the tty
-			  (because it has been inherited all the way down
-			  here), but we have neither read nor write
-			  permission for the tty.
-
-		       In these cases, we finally give up, and don't set the
-		       output fd in non-blocking mode. */
