             Summary: Add option for Subprocess to set a death signal for the 
forked child
                 Key: MESOS-2462
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2462
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: isolation
    Affects Versions: 0.21.1
            Reporter: Ian Downes
            Priority: Minor


Currently, children forked by the slave, including those through Subprocess, 
will continue running if the slave exits. For some processes, including helper 
processes like the fetcher, du, or perf, we'd like them to be terminated when 
the slave exits.

Add support to Subprocess to optionally set a DEATHSIG for the child, e.g., 
setting SIGTERM would mean the child would get SIGTERM when the slave 
terminates.

This can be done (*after forking*) with PR_SET_DEATHSIG. See "man prset". It is 
preserved through an exec call.
