Subject: [PATCH 2/6] auto_reap: waitpid never returns undef
Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2023 07:44:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230926074440.392023-3-e@80x24.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230926074440.392023-1-e@80x24.org>

Reading the Perl source, it seems impossible to for waitpid
to return undef.  perlipc(1) man page also documents waitpid
(and `wait') as functions which always restart on EINTR.
