Subject: [PATCH v5 03/11] run-command: prepare command before forking
Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2017 16:17:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170418231805.61835-4-bmwill@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170418231805.61835-1-bmwill@google.com>
According to [1] we need to only call async-signal-safe operations between fork
and exec. Using malloc to build the argv array isn't async-signal-safe.
In order to avoid allocation between 'fork()' and 'exec()' prepare the
argv array used in the exec call prior to forking the process.
