fdwalkSetCloexec

fun fdwalkSetCloexec(lowfd: <Error class: unknown class>): <Error class: unknown class>

Mark every file descriptor equal to or greater than @lowfd to be closed at the next execve() or similar, as if via the FD_CLOEXEC flag.

Typically @lowfd will be 3, to leave standard input, standard output and standard error open after exec.

This is the same as Linux close_range (lowfd, ~0U, CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC), but portable to other OSs and to older versions of Linux.

This function is async-signal safe, making it safe to call from a signal handler or a callback@GLib.SpawnChildSetupFunc, as long as @lowfd is non-negative. See man:signal(7) and man:signal-safety(7) for more details.

Return

0 on success, -1 with errno set on error
