  2. DTrace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTrace

    A typical probe might fire when a certain file is opened, or a process is started, or a certain line of code is executed. A probe that fires may analyze the run-time situation by accessing the call stack and context variables and evaluating expressions; it can then print out or log some information, record it in a database, or modify context ...

    After this, it opens the file and returns the file descriptor to the caller, [6] with the data buffer that was passed to the function with the template now containing the new filename. [7] The file can be deleted immediately after the mkstemp call returns to prevent other processes from opening it, but the file can still be used because the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork_(system_call)

    The other process, the parent, receives from fork the process identifier of the child, which is always a positive number. The parent process passes this identifier to the waitpid system call to suspend execution until the child has exited. When this has happened, the parent resumes execution and exits by means of the return statement.

  7. Exit status - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exit_status

    In Unix and other POSIX-compatible systems, the parent process can retrieve the exit status of a child process using the wait() family of system calls defined in wait.h. [10] Of these, the waitid() [ 11 ] call retrieves the full exit status, but the older wait() and waitpid() [ 12 ] calls retrieve only the least significant 8 bits of the exit ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-and-set

    In computer science, the test-and-set instruction is an instruction used to write (set) 1 to a memory location and return its old value as a single atomic (i.e., non-interruptible) operation. The caller can then "test" the result to see if the state was changed by the call.
