Every process now has an init process like it has a session, and each session belong to an init. Orphaned processes are reparented to its init process. All descendent processes are SIGKILL'd when an init process exits and creating additional processes/threads fails. Add setinit(2) for becoming the init process for your child processes and add getinit(2) for locating your init process. Add TIOCSCTTY force flag that releases a terminal from its current session and makes it the controlling terminal for the current session. This ioctl is essential to transferring the controlling terminal to a nested init, which has its own session. Add TIOCUCTTY that releases the terminal as the controlling terminal for its current session. Remove INIT_PID as it is replaced by getinit(2). |

The Sortix Operating System =========================== Sortix is a small self-hosting operating-system aiming to be a clean and modern POSIX implementation. It is a hobbyist operating system written from scratch with its own base system, including kernel and standard library, as well as ports of third party software. It has a straightforward installer and can be developed under itself. Releases come with the source code in /src, ready for tinkering. It has been in development since 2011 by a single developer and contributors. Though the system is stable and capable right now, it is still early in development, and a number of crucial features haven't been made yet. Releases are made yearly and future releases will add features such as SMP, and USB that were skipped in favor of becoming self-hosting now. Documentation ------------- The system is documented as manual pages. Introductory system usage is covered in the user-guide(7) manual page. Links ----- For more information, please visit the official website: https://sortix.org/ Building Sortix --------------- Development of Sortix under itself is covered in development(7). Development from another operating system is covered in cross-development(7). You can view the cross-development(7) manual page with this command: man share/man/man7/cross-development.7 License ------- Copyright 2011-2016 Jonas 'Sortie' Termansen and contributors.
