/*
** The program demonstrates how a child process created using fork()
** can continue to use SQLite for a database that the parent had opened and
** and was writing into when the fork() occurred.
**
** This program executes the following steps:
**
** 1. Create a new database file. Open it, and populate it.
** 2. Start a transaction and make changes.
** ^-- close the transaction prior to fork() if --commit-before-fork
** 3. Fork()
** 4. In the child, close the database connection. Special procedures
** are needed to close the database connection in the child. See the
** implementation below.
** 5. Commit the transaction in the parent.
** 6. Verify that the transaction committed in the parent.
** 7. In the child, after a delay to allow time for (5) and (6),
** open a new database connection and verify that the transaction
** committed by (5) is seen.
** 8. Add make further changes and commit them in the child, using the
** new database connection.
** 9. In the parent, after a delay to account for (8), verify that
** the new transaction added by (8) can be seen.
**
** Usage:
**
** fork-test FILENAME [options]
**
** Options:
**
** --wal Run the database in WAL mode
** --vfstrace Enable VFS tracing for debugging
** --commit-before-fork COMMIT prior to the fork() in step 3
** --delay-after-4 N Pause for N seconds after step 4
**
** How To Compile:
**
** gcc -O0 -g -Wall -I$(SQLITESRC) \
** f1.c $(SQLITESRC)/ext/misc/vfstrace.c $(SQLITESRC/sqlite3.c \
** -ldl -lpthread -lm
**
** Test procedure:
**
** (1) Run "fork-test x1.db". Verify no I/O errors occur and that
** both parent and child see all three rows in the t1 table.
**
** (2) Repeat (1) adding the --wal option.
**
** (3) Repeat (1) and (2) adding the --commit-before-fork option.
**
** (4) Repeat all prior steps adding the --delay-after-4 option with
** a timeout of 15 seconds or so. Then, while both parent and child
** are paused, run the CLI against the x1.db database from a separate
** window and verify that all the correct file locks are still working
** correctly.
**
** Take-Aways:
**
** * If a process has open SQLite database connections when it fork()s,
** the child can call exec() and all it well. Nothing special needs
** to happen.
**
** * If a process has open SQLite database connections when it fork()s,
** the child can do anything that does not involve using SQLite without
** causing problems in the parent. No special actions are needed in
** the child.
**
** * If a process has open SQLite database connections when it fork()s,
** the child can call sqlite3_close() on those database connections
** as long as there were no pending write transactions when the fork()
** occurred.
**
** * If a process has open SQLite database connections that are in the
** middle of a write transaction and then the processes fork()s, the
** child process should close the database connections using the
** procedures demonstrated in Step 4 below before trying to do anything
** else with SQLite.
**
** * If a child process can safely close SQLite database connections that
** it inherited via fork() using the procedures shown in Step 4 below
** even if the database connections were not involved in a write
** transaction at the time of the fork(). The special procedures are
** required if a write transaction was active. They are optional
** otherwise. No harm results from using the special procedures when
** they are not necessary.
**
** * Child processes that use SQLite should open their own database
** connections. They should not attempt to use a database connection
** that is inherited from the parent.
