system.get_lowfd
Description
If fd
is a number between 3 and 9 (inclusive) and the process inherited this
numbered file descriptor, returns it as file_descriptor
object.
Once a file_descriptor
is returned, it’s consumed from the runtime’s internal
registry, and this function will return nil
on that point forward if called
with the same argument.
This function is useful to implement FD3-based protocols such as systemD’s socket activation and Varlink. |
Only the master VM is allowed to use this function. |
