 * Name: vfork
 *
 * Description:
 *   The vfork() function is implemented based on fork() function, on
 *   vfork(), the parent task need to wait until the child task is performing
 *   exec or running finished.
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   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.
