svn commit: r217308 - head/sbin/hastd

[Pawel Jakub Dawidek]

New Revision: 217308
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/217308

Log:
  Add a note that when custom signal handler is installed for a signal,
  signal action is restored to default in child after fork(2).
  In this case there is no need to do anything with dummy SIGCHLD handler,
  because after fork(2) it will be automatically reverted to SIG_IGN.
