Linux / Unix Command: daemon

Command Library

NAME

daemon - run in the background  

SYNOPSIS

#include <unistd.h>

int daemon(int nochdir, int noclose);  

DESCRIPTION

The daemon() function is for programs wishing to detach themselves from the controlling terminal and run in the background as system daemons.

Unless the argument nochdir is non-zero, daemon() changes the current working directory to the root ("/").

Unless the argument noclose is non-zero, daemon() will redirect standard input, standard output and standard error to /dev/null.  

RETURN VALUE

(This function forks, and if the fork() succeeds, the father does _exit(0), so that further errors are seen by the child only.) On success zero will be returned. If an error occurs, daemon() returns -1 and sets the global variable errno to any of the errors specified for the library functions fork(2) and setsid(2).
