Subject: [PATCH 4/5] unshare: store child PID in global variable
Date: Thu,  8 Jan 2026 13:31:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108183134.23980-5-kiranrangoon0@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260108183134.23980-1-kiranrangoon0@gmail.com>

After fork(), store the child PID in the global child_pid variable
so the signal handler can forward signals to it. Clear child_pid in
the child process to prevent recursion.
