        // to listen for SIGCHLD.

        // With this in mind, the waiting mechanism with a timeout barely uses
        // waitpid() at all. There are a few times that waitpid() is invoked with
        // WNOHANG, but otherwise all the necessary blocking is done by waiting for
        // a SIGCHLD to arrive (and that blocking has a timeout). Note, however,
        // that waitpid() is still used to actually reap the child.
        //
        // Signal handling is super tricky in general, and this is no exception. Due
        // to the async nature of SIGCHLD, we use the self-pipe trick to transmit
        // data out of the signal handler to the rest of the application. The first
        // idea would be to have each thread waiting with a timeout to read this
        // output file descriptor, but a write() is akin to a signal(), not a
        // broadcast(), so it would only wake up one thread, and possibly the wrong
        // thread. Hence a helper thread is used.

        // The helper thread here is responsible for farming requests for a
        // waitpid() with a timeout, and then processing all of the wait requests.
        // By guaranteeing that only this helper thread is reading half of the
        // self-pipe, we're sure that we'll never lose a SIGCHLD. This helper thread
        // is also responsible for select() to wait for incoming messages or
        // incoming SIGCHLD messages, along with passing an appropriate timeout to
        // select() to wake things up as necessary.

        // The ordering of the following statements is also very purposeful. First,

        // nonblocking waitpid() at least once before we go ask the sigchld helper.
        // This prevents the race where the child exits, we boot the helper, and
        // then we ask for the child's exit status (never seeing a sigchld).
