/** @file dk4dmt.h Daemon tools.
The functions in this module can be used in standing daemons.
In the original process, call the
dk4dmt_parent_before_fork() function to close all file descriptors
above 2, reset all signal handlers to defaults, unblock all signals
and check whether a PID file already exists.
If you plan to give up root privileges in the child processes
(use setgid() and setuid() to change effective user and group),
do not use /var/run/program.pid as PID file name, better
use /var/run/program/program.pid instead and make
sure to set ownership and group on /var/run/program
to the unprivileged user and group used by the child process.
User and group need write permission to the directory, so the unprivileged
child process can remove the PID file when exiting.
In the intermediate process after the first fork call
dk4dmt_intermediate_before_fork(). Among other things this function
completely decouples the process from the terminal.
In the final process (after forking again) call
dk4dmt_daemon_after_fork()
to set up things before starting service. This function creates the PID
file, connects file descriptors 0, 1 and 2 to /dev/null, resets
the umask and changes into the / directory.
After finishing service call
dk4dmt_daemon_end() before exiting. This function removes the PID
file.
