AT_EXIT(9)            DragonFly Kernel Developer's Manual           AT_EXIT(9)

NAME

at_exit, rm_at_exit -- ask that a function be run at exit

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/systm.h> typedef void (exitlist_fn) (struct proc *); int at_exit(exitlist_fn func); int rm_at_exit(exitlist_fn func);

DESCRIPTION

The at_exit facility allows a kernel module to ensure that it is notified at any process exit. The function func is called with the a pointer to the exiting process's proc structure. If the requirement for notification is removed, then the function rm_at_exit() must be called with the exact func argument as the corre- sponding call to at_exit().

RETURN VALUES

The at_exit() function returns an errno, 0 meaning success. The rm_at_exit() function returns the number of items removed (should be 0 or 1).

SEE ALSO

HISTORY

The at_exit() function appeared in FreeBSD 2.2.
