pid1

signal handling and orphan reaping for Unix PID1 init processes

Description

Library/executable for initializing signal handlers, spawning and child process, and reaping orphan processes. These are the responsibilities that must be fulfilled by the initial process in a Unix system, and in particular comes up when running Docker containers.

This library/executable will automatically detect if it is run as some process besides PID1 and, if so, use a straightforward exec system call instead.
