The sender will not be put in control of what flags the pidfd will be created on the receivers side. That's just an invitation for subtle bugs. The receiver can always toggle O_NONBLOCK via a fcntl() on the pidfd once it received it. The whole flag thing should be dropped. The format change is also an api break which is another reason this won't happen.
