Setting the handler for SIGCHLD to SIG_IGN (ignore) informs the kernel
not to enter the zombie state: (man 2 wait)
POSIX.1-2001 specifies that if the disposition of SIGCHLD is set to
SIG_IGN or the SA_NOCLDWAIT flag is set for SIGCHLD (see
sigaction(2)), then children that terminate do not become zombies
[...]
Fixes#271.
This patch reads program arguments from the config file and makes them
available to the application via the 'argc' and 'argv' arguments of the
'main()' function. The configuration syntax looks like this:
<config>
<arg value="...">
<arg value="...">
...
</config>
The 'value' attribute of the first <arg> node becomes 'argv[0]' and so on.
Fixes#184.
- Let hybrid Linux/Genode programs use POSIX threads for the
implementation of the Thread API.
- Prevent linkage of cxx library to hybrid Linux/Genode programs because
the cxx functionality is covered by glibc.
