* Name: vfork
*
* Description:
* The vfork() function has the same effect as fork(), except that the behavior is
* undefined if the process created by vfork() either modifies any data other than
* a variable of type pid_t used to store the return value from vfork(), or returns
* from the function in which vfork() was called, or calls any other function before
* successfully calling _exit() or one of the exec family of functions.
*
* This thin layer implements vfork by simply calling up_vfork() with the vfork()
* context as an argument. The overall sequence is:
*
* 1) User code calls vfork(). vfork() collects context information and
* transfers control up up_vfork().
* 2) up_vfork()and calls task_vforksetup().
* 3) task_vforksetup() allocates and configures the child task's TCB. This
* consists of:
* - Allocation of the child task's TCB.
* - Initialization of file descriptors and streams
* - Configuration of environment variables
* - Setup the intput parameters for the task.
* - Initialization of the TCB (including call to up_initial_state()
* 4) up_vfork() provides any additional operating context. up_vfork must:
* - Allocate and initialize the stack
* - Initialize special values in any CPU registers that were not
* already configured by up_initial_state()
* 5) up_vfork() then calls task_vforkstart()
* 6) task_vforkstart() then executes the child thread.
*
* Input Paremeters:
* None
*
* Return:
* Upon successful completion, vfork() returns 0 to the child process and returns
* the process ID of the child process to the parent process. Otherwise, -1 is
* returned to the parent, no child process is created, and errno is set to
* indicate the error.
*
