     26  * Run a command while logging its stdout and stderr
     27  *
     28  * WARNING: while this function is running it will clear all SIGCHLD handlers
     29  * if you rely on SIGCHLD in the caller there is a chance zombies will be
     30  * created if you're not calling waitpid after calling this. This function will
     31  * log a warning when it clears SIGCHLD for processes other than the child it
     32  * created.
     33  *
     34  * Arguments:
     35  *   argc:   the number of elements in argv
     36  *   argv:   an array of strings containing the command to be executed and its
     37  *           arguments as separate strings. argv does not need to be
     38  *           NULL-terminated
     39  *   status: the equivalent child status as populated by wait(status). This
     40  *           value is only valid when logwrap successfully completes. If NULL
     41  *           the return value of the child will be the function's return value.
     42  *   ignore_int_quit: set to true if you want to completely ignore SIGINT and
     43  *           SIGQUIT while logwrap is running. This may force the end-user to
     44  *           send a signal twice to signal the caller (once for the child, and
     45  *           once for the caller)
     46  *   log_target: Specify where to log the output of the child, either LOG_NONE,
     47  *           LOG_ALOG (for the Android system log), LOG_KLOG (for the kernel
     48  *           log), or LOG_FILE (and you need to specify a pathname in the
     49  *           file_path argument, otherwise pass NULL).  These are bit fields,
     50  *           and can be OR'ed together to log to multiple places.
     51  *   abbreviated: If true, capture up to the first 100 lines and last 4K of
     52  *           output from the child.  The abbreviated output is not dumped to
     53  *           the specified log until the child has exited.
     54  *   file_path: if log_target has the LOG_FILE bit set, then this parameter
     55  *           must be set to the pathname of the file to log to.
     56  *
     57  * Return value:
     58  *   0 when logwrap successfully run the child process and captured its status
     59  *   -1 when an internal error occurred
     60  *   -ECHILD if status is NULL and the child didn't exit properly
     61  *   the return value of the child if it exited properly and status is NULL
     62  *
