What about Windows?
[edit]Does this concept apply there? How can you find child processes in Windows? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.184.58.60 (talk) 15:56, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Add PRCTL_SET_CHILD_REAPER section
[edit]This is a prctl used by Upstart and systemd when they are run as session/user init systems (not PID 1) to make sure orphans go to the session init system, not the system init system (PID 1). It is only available on Linux, however it would be nice to have this info on this wiki. See this thread for more info on it: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1412040.
