+--  Operating system interface facilities
+
+--  This package contains types and procedures for interfacing to the
+--  underlying OS. It is used by the GNAT compiler and by tools associated
+--  with the GNAT compiler, and therefore works for the various operating
+--  systems to which GNAT has been ported. This package will undoubtedly grow
+--  as new services are needed by various tools.
+
+--  This package tends to use fairly low-level Ada in order to not bring in
+--  large portions of the RTL. For example, functions return access to string
+--  as part of avoiding functions returning unconstrained types.
+
+--  Except where specifically noted, these routines are portable across all
+--  GNAT implementations on all supported operating systems.
+
+--  Note: this package is in the System hierarchy so that it can be directly
+--  be used by other predefined packages. User access to this package is via
+--  a renaming of this package in GNAT.OS_Lib (file g-os_lib.ads).

+   --     On Windows: spawnvp (blocking) or CreateProcess (non-blocking)
+
+   --     On Solaris: fork1, followed in the child process by execv
+
+   --     On other Unix-like systems: fork, followed in the child
+   --     process by execv.
+
+   --     On vxworks, spawning of processes is not supported
+
+   --  For details, look at the functions __gnat_portable_spawn and
+   --  __gnat_portable_no_block_spawn in adaint.c.
+
+   --  You should read the operating-system-specific documentation for the
+   --  above functions, paying special attention to subtle interactions with
+   --  threading, signals, locks, and file descriptors. Most of the issues are
+   --  related to the fact that on Unix, there is a window of time between fork
+   --  and execv; Windows does not have this problem, because spawning is done
+   --  in a single operation.
+
+   --  On Posix-compliant systems, such as Linux, fork duplicates just the
+   --  calling thread. (On Solaris, fork1 is the Posix-compliant version of
+   --  fork.)
+
+   --  You should avoid using signals while spawning. This includes signals
+   --  used internally by the Ada run-time system, such as timer signals used
+   --  to implement delay statements.
+
+   --  It is best to spawn any subprocesses very early, before the parent
+   --  process creates tasks, locks, or installs signal handlers. Certainly
+   --  avoid doing simultaneous spawns from multiple threads of the same
+   --  process.
+
+   --  There is no problem spawning a subprocess that uses tasking: the
+   --  problems are caused only by tasking in the parent.
+
+   --  If the parent is using tasking, and needs to spawn subprocesses at
+   --  arbitrary times, one technique is for the parent to spawn (very early)
+   --  a particular spawn-manager subprocess whose job is to spawn other
+   --  processes. The spawn-manager must avoid tasking. The parent sends
+   --  messages to the spawn-manager requesting it to spawn processes, using
+   --  whatever inter-process communication mechanism you like, such as
+   --  sockets.
+
+   --  In short, mixing spawning of subprocesses with tasking is a tricky
+   --  business, and should be avoided if possible, but if it is necessary,
+   --  the above guidelines should be followed, and you should beware of
+   --  portability problems.
