[PATCH v3 05/10] run-command: prepare child environment before forking

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In order to avoid allocation between 'fork()' and 'exec()' prepare the
environment to be used in the child process prior to forking.

Switch to using 'execve()' so that the construct child environment can
used in the exec'd process.
