* When the process is already dead, but the `exit` signal wasn't raised
yet, the ESRCH error should be ignored.
* When an invalid signal is specified, kill() should throw.
* Like process.kill(), child_process.kill() now preserves a `0` signal
which can be used to check the liveliness of the child process.
* process.kill() and child_process.kill() will now return true if the
signal was actually delivered, and false otherwise.
* When an `exec`-ed process is automatically killed because a time or
buffer limit is exceeded, and the kill() fails, this error should be
reported through the `exec` callback.
Fixes: #3409
child_process.fork() support sending native hander object, this patch add support for sending
net.Server and net.Socket object by converting the object to a native handle object and back
to a useful object again.
Note when sending a Socket there was emitted by a net Server object, the server.connections
property becomes null, because it is no longer possible to known when it is destroyed.
Currently, a child process does not emit the 'exit' event until 'close' events
have been received on all three of the child's stdio streams. This change makes
the child object emit 'exit' when the child exits, and a new 'close' event when
all stdio streams are closed.
It was decided that the performance benefits that isolates offer (faster spin-up
times for worker processes, faster inter-worker communication, possibly a lower
memory footprint) are not actual bottlenecks for most people and do not outweigh
the potential stability issues and intrusive changes to the code base that
first-class support for isolates requires.
Hence, this commit backs out all isolates-related changes.
Good bye, isolates. We hardly knew ye.
When using isolate the .fork would break because it had
no .disconnect method. This remove the exit handler there
would call .disconnect since it was not required.
It also change .disconnect to throw if the channel is closed,
this was not possible before because .disconnect would be called
twice.
