            Bug ID: 30159
           Summary: manual: Document that a fork()'d child of an
                    MT-process may only call AS-safe functions.
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.38
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: manual
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: carlos at redhat dot com
                CC: mtk.manpages at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

It was raised in a downstream issue that we should clearly call out the
restriction that the fork()'d child of an MT-process may only call AS-safe
functions until it calls an exec family function.

Downstream bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2172869

This should be added as an entry in the glibc manual/process.texi notes for
fork().
