/* NAME
/*	vstream_popen 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	open stream to child process
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <vstream.h>
/*
/*	VSTREAM	*vstream_popen(flags, key, value, ...)
/*	int	flags;
/*	int	key;
/*
/*	int	vstream_pclose(stream)
/*	VSTREAM	*stream;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	vstream_popen() opens a one-way or two-way stream to a user-specified
/*	command, which is executed by a child process. The \fIflags\fR
/*	argument is as with vstream_fopen(). The child's standard input and
/*	standard output are redirected to the stream, which is based on a
/*	socketpair or other suitable local IPC. vstream_popen() takes a list
/*	of (key, value) arguments, terminated by VSTREAM_POPEN_END. The key
/*	argument specifies what value will follow. The following is a listing
/*	of key codes together with the expected value type.
/* .RS
/* .IP "VSTREAM_POPEN_COMMAND (char *)"
/*	Specifies the command to execute as a string. The string is
/*	passed to the shell when it contains shell meta characters
/*	or when it appears to be a shell built-in command, otherwise
/*	the command is executed without invoking a shell.
/*	One of VSTREAM_POPEN_COMMAND or VSTREAM_POPEN_ARGV must be specified.
/* .IP "VSTREAM_POPEN_ARGV (char **)"
/*	The command is specified as an argument vector. This vector is
/*	passed without further inspection to the \fIexecvp\fR() routine.
/*	One of VSTREAM_POPEN_COMMAND or VSTREAM_POPEN_ARGV must be specified.
/*	See also the VSTREAM_POPEN_SHELL attribute below.
/* .IP "VSTREAM_POPEN_ENV (char **)"
/*	Additional environment information, in the form of a null-terminated
/*	list of name, value, name, value, ... elements. By default only the
/*	command search path is initialized to _PATH_DEFPATH.
/* .IP "VSTREAM_POPEN_EXPORT (char **)"
/*	This argument is passed to clean_env().
/*	Null-terminated array of names of environment parameters
/*	that can be exported. By default, everything is exported.
/* .IP "VSTREAM_POPEN_UID (uid_t)"
/*	The user ID to execute the command as. The user ID must be non-zero.
/* .IP "VSTREAM_POPEN_GID (gid_t)"
/*	The group ID to execute the command as. The group ID must be non-zero.
/* .IP "VSTREAM_POPEN_SHELL (char *)"
/*	The shell to use when executing the command specified with
/*	VSTREAM_POPEN_COMMAND. This shell is invoked regardless of the
/*	command content.
/* .IP "VSTREAM_POPEN_WAITPID_FN ((*)(pid_t, WAIT_STATUS_T *, int))"
/*	waitpid()-like function to reap the child exit status when
/*	vstream_pclose() is called.
/* .RE
/* .PP
/*	vstream_pclose() closes the named stream and returns the child
/*	exit status. It is an error to specify a stream that was not
/*	returned by vstream_popen() or that is no longer open.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Panics: interface violations. Fatal errors: out of memory.
/*
/*	vstream_popen() returns a null pointer in case of trouble.
/*	The nature of the problem is specified via the \fIerrno\fR
/*	global variable.
/*
/*	vstream_pclose() returns -1 in case of trouble.
/*	The nature of the problem is specified via the \fIerrno\fR
/*	global variable.
/* SEE ALSO
/*	vstream(3) light-weight buffered I/O
/* BUGS
/*	The interface, stolen from popen()/pclose(), ignores errors
/*	returned when the stream is closed, and does not distinguish
/*	between exit status codes and kill signals.
